How to stop Vista Security Center 2011 to block access to the internet

My sons laptop has been mess up since yesterday afternoon. There McAffee Antivirus, who has never been a problem, however, "Security Center Vista 2011' at random is appeared for the first time, automatically scanned the computer and reported 25 viruses. For this reason, whenever it opens Internet Explorer to surf the net, a pop-up appears telling him that he is infected. If it it closes its doors, the internet charge only to be saying the same thing again, and if you choose to continue to sail on the same message appears, telling him that he is infected. If we go on the Vista Security Center to try to adjust the settings, it leaves us not as customization options are 'greyed out '. He asks us to buy a full version which we don't want.

We had McAffee scan for these viruses, and it reported a Trojan horse which he deleted. I then rebooted the laptop and the computer starts downloading Vista SP1. It took about an hour to install it. I was hoping that the errors were corrected, however it is still preventing us access to Web sites, saying each site Web is "infected." Several windows pop up appears regularly telling us that the computer is infected and asked to purchase a full version of Vista Security Center 2011.

Please help, as we have tried a lot of things, and we cannot remove this security program.

Hi there, Ok vista security center 2011 is a virus. You need a better program Antimalware too to roll all this crapy virus!, I wrote this a month ago. You need too download malwarebyets you can find it here on this link http://www.malwarebytes.org/, download the free version, then you will see a desktop icon of this anti-malware program. You need also side click on it and run as administrator, then it will start up. Now DO a FULL system SCAN, not a quick analysis. It should take about 40mins or so. Now, you will see at least 4 bad Trojan and a virus. Now delete 'em, then after restart PC... Do the same thing again. After the scan is complete, and no virus found... System Restore to a point over 5 days. When we know that when the computer was working no probs then you done everything;), Post back on here to see how you are thereby. Thanks Dion.

  • Ad-aware masquerading as my Vista Security Center, could not be deleted.

    I used my PC reguarley for the last days without what appears to everyone, now everything I've been slowed down on my PC this message "Windows Vista Security" popped up and immediately I knew it was ad-aware or a virus any. He started doing that same old scan, telling me to each file that I had on my computer was a Trojan of some sort.

    I always had AVG, but disabled Vista security because they interfere with each other, the last time I downloaded something yesterday and it was Microsoft Office 2010 Beta, and before it was a few weeks, but I always scan before you download.

    I have attached a link in the screenshot below, when you click "Turn on now" another screen appears asking me to 'Purchase Windows Vista Security', etc. and then takes me to a convincing site asking my details of credit card etc.. No computer sounds very convincing and I'm sure many have already fallen, AVG does not recgonised it well. He has taken compltley in charge my Security Center and I can't use anything.

    In the Task Manager, it was named "Windows Task Problem Solver" and took me a while to find, when closed closed in my taskbar and then reopened shortly after.

  • "Windows Vista Security Center" close browser windows, precise I have a virus, and now no programs will be opened. Windows does not start in safe mode, and all the system restore points have already disappeared.

    Hello

    I have a Dell laptop under Windows Vista Premium. I got it for about three years, and he is upset enough ok tonight. In the middle of browsing the internet, check my email, etc., all but one of my browser windows close at random, and a message appears "windows vista Security Center" whenever I try to open a new window, blocking of the site and to say that the site is dangerous and my system has been infiltrated by a Trojan horse. Then he starts the scan and says that I must buy the full to get everything to work again. I closed everything, since I already have McAfee antivirus and internet security, but it does not, and neither did any other progams. I tried restarting in safe mode to restore a backup point, but Windows does not open in safe mode, rather stick for half an hour in the middle of loading. When I managed to start windows in normal mode, I found that all my past restore points had been erased.

    This happened to someone else, and it is fixable without wiping everything?

    Thanks in advance,
    Emma

    Hi Emma,

    This could be due to a virus on your computer.  Try to make a virus on your computer scan to check if your computer is infected.

    How can I download the drivers for a processor that crashed and does not have access to the internet.  The drivers seem to be the problem.

    First of all, please note that you mean a computer, not a cpu.  "CPU" means "Central processing unit". In modern personal computers, the CPU is a relatively small chip, an integrated circuit. It is located on the motherboard inside the computer case. It is not the case itself, nor is it the total computer, which includes the case and what it contains.

    Download drivers on another computer and put them on CD or thumb. Bring them to the computer in question, and then copy them there.

    • Are you referring to Wi - Fi or LAN icon on the taskbar?
    • When was the last time you were able to view the icon?

    The option to show wireless icon on the notification area of the task bar of Windows 7 while the system is connected to the network must be enabled both on the system options, as well as network properties.

    a. for the activation of the option from the taskbar, you can click on any where in the taskbar, and then select the option "Properties".

    b. in the window that appears, choose the tab "To-do bar" and then select the option 'Notification area'.

    c. now, click on the "Customize" option and select "Show icon and notifications" option near the menu "network".

    d. click "Ok" and close the dialog box.

    How can I connect my Tablet cruz for my connection to the internet the computer

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will certainly help the question of fixing.

    To help you suggest several steps to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:

    1. What is the model of the Cruz tablet number?

    2. How do you access Internet for your computer? It is through a wired connection or wireless?

    Follow the steps below:

    a. connect a network cable to the tablet computer if the Tablet has a network card. High-speed modems have an output connection to which you connect the network cable and then connect it to a computer or router.

    b. display wireless networks in network settings options. Select a wireless network, and then click on connect. In the areas of Wi - Fi hotspot, you may need to open a Web page to accept the terms of the license before plugging in.

    c. sign to a computer network or a network mobile broadband. Some tablet computers have connections to data network integrated such as the type that personal digital assistants (PDAS) and the use of cell phones. You need to register for an account with the provider of service associated with the integrated network. Alternatively, you can sign up for broadband wireless services and to access broadband that plugs into a USB port with an adapter.
