I downloaded the malware removal tool, but that it can not find on the list of programs, what good is it if I can't find it?
I want to launch this tool, but can't find it, but still my Microsoft Download list says that it has been installed successfly in September 2011
According to Noel, MSRT is run automatically when it is first downloaded from Windows Update. If you want to run again for some reason, click Start, click Run, and then type the following in the Open box and click OK
MRT.exe
The results will be in a text file named C:\Windows\debug\MRT.log
You can add switches: /? display information use
/ Q runs without user interface
/N is only detect
/ F is full force sca
/ F: there did a full scan and automatically cleans infected files
For more details, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Malicious_Software_Removal_Tool
Unlike typical antivirus software, MSRT does not get updated virus signatures. A new version, with the latest integrated virus information, is offered each month from Windows Update.

MS Removal Tool has taken possession of my computer. I downloaded what was advertised, fraudulently, as a 'free' program, only to find out that I had to pay $59.95 to activate it. I refused, and then discovered that ANY of my programs worked, so I went back and I purchase, and then things started working. Tehen, a screen came up with a license agreement, and I clicked 'CANCEL' instead of 'I AGREE'; once more, NONE of my programs worked so I tried to contact Microsoft, but it is almost impossible, where this note. Any suggestions? Complain to the FCC? Forget Microsoft and go to Linux Ubuntu? The problem is with my Dell 745 running Vista Business. Since it is now inactdive, I'm typing this on my laptop with XP - Pro. I also have a desktop IBM running Linux Ubuntu 10.10, and I love it.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this situation? Microsoft is one of the many who use dishonest and deceitful tactics to 'hang' their 'brands... Anyone else out there with experience with this tactic?Thanks for your help. If please answer on the forum and steer them to * address email is removed from the privacy *.Hello

Yes.
But I highly recommend against Norton. In my opinion, this is one of the
worst choice of security software. For an anti-virus program, I have
recommend eSet NOD32, if you are willing to pay for it. If you want a
free anti-virus, I recommend one of the following three:
Avira
Avast
Microsoft Security Essentials
You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
(both freeware) to install MalwareBytes AntiMalware and

This tool checks your computer infections by specific, prevalent malicious software (including Blaster, Sasser, and Mydoom) and helps to remove the infection if it is found.

(1) on the last stage Setup lets you start Firefox, if you keep all of the checkbox "Launch Firefox now", turns on Firefox when you click on "Finish"?
(2) how did you launch Firefox when you receive the error message? How do you 'by clicking on the freshly installed target Firefox.exe?
(3) what is the exact error message? (Post a screenshot if you cannot re-type precisely). Text you have posted it lacks an ending quotation mark and does not resemble any message I know.

I used the destructor of the demo feature PC Tools Performance Toolkit allows you to delete a directory that I couldn't take off any other way. At the same time used a few other functionlities software to clean my computer, the software promised to improve the performance of my computer (Vista). Then I discovered that the software deleted the list of programs recently used in the start which was not desirable. Now there is a list of recently used programs, and a new one is created either. How can I get the list to create again?
Hello
It is not recommended to use any cleaners/tune Up all registry program on modern operating systems.
And they can do more harm to your any good operating system that they claim to be able to do.
See if that helps you.
Do a system restore, if necessary using the safe, before the problem started.

I downloaded the latest version of camera raw for LR. I LR4 and cannot import pictures from my new Nikon D750. Download said it was successful, but I still can't import photos.
Lightroom does not use plug in Camera Raw. So download the latest Camera Raw did nothing at all for you. The only way to update or upgrade Lightroom is to get the latest version. If you have Lightroom 4 then the latest version of Lightroom, you have no additional cost is Lightroom 4.4.1. If the device you are using requires something newer that what is supported and that the version of Lightroom, then an upgrade to Lightroom 5.
