    I have the Windows Vista operating system. Whenever I connect my computer, I get two pop ups on the taskbar. One is jucheck.exec and another is updates of Java.

    I have no way to uncheck the premiera. I have only two options, restore or close. With java, I opened the properties and click to remove the check mark from updates, you click on apply and then clicked on ok, but he still continues to appear you have tips on how can stop these pop ups?

    Hello

    I would like to inform you that Jucheck.exe is the process that runs automatically when the Java Update tool is activated. Jucheck.exe usually checks the Internet for the software updates available and invite you to install them to keep your updated program. If you prefer to search and download the Java updates manually whenever you want, disable Java Update automatic tool disables and removes Jucheck.exe

    Some malware or virus can be very persistent and difficult to remove effectively.  Ultimately, the preparation of virus so the best defense.  Delivered to a factory condition can sometimes be faster and easier, assuming you're ready. With this in mind:

    • Don't forget to back up your data regularly, especially data that are most important to you (pictures, videos, personal documents, unfinished).
    • Save if possible in more than one place as an external drive, a CD or DVD.
      * Have own back to the top of all the important data will take some sting out of having to start over *.
    • Make sure that you have created your recovery media and have it available. If you need help with this, consider one of the following documents:

  • I keep getting phone calls from a man who calls himself from Windows saying: I have a virus and to pay to get rid of him!

    • This man said that it comes from windows and I have a virus and you have to pay to remove! I know it's a lie and paid no attention, but I expect some vulnerable people might do! How can I report to microsoft? Has anyone actually paid these merchant scam?
    Thank you for getting back on this type of scam.
    Yes, some vulnerable people indeed caught up.

    Microsoft has none of the unsolicited telephone calls to help you fix your computer

    In this type of scam cybercriminals are calling you and claim to be of Support technique Microsoft. They offer help with your computer problems. Once scammers have earned your trust, they try to steal and damage your computer with malicious software, including viruses and spyware.

    Although the law enforcement can trace phone numbers, often authors use pay telephones, disposable cell phones or stolen cellular phone numbers. It is better to avoid being scammed rather than try to repair the damage afterwards.

    Treat all unsolicited sceptically telephone calls. Don't provide personal information.

    If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.

    If you think you might be a victim of fraud, you can report it.

    First of all, if you use the hacked version of Windows or non-genuien, the only solution to roll pirate is to backup your data and format the PC.

    Hi Benny,.

    1. what web browser do you use?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    CSC.exe is the executable and related to .net framework c# compiler.

    Note: Try the steps only if you are using Internet explorer as your web browser below.

    Method 1: Check if Add-ons on Internet Explore are causing the error. I suggest you try opening Internet Explore mode without modules.

    (a) click the Start button, click all programs , and click Accessories

    (b) click on System Toolsand then click on Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

    For more information, see the link below.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-browser-add-ons-affect-my-computer

    Method 2: If the previous step fails then I suggest that you reset browser settings Internet explorer to the default, if you use internet explore as a web browser.

    For more information please visit the link below.

    How to reset Internet Explorer settings

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923737

    Important: Reset Internet explore its default configuration. This step will disable also any add-ons, plug-ins or toolbars that are installed. Although this solution is fast, it also means that, if you want to use one of these modules in the future, they must be reinstalled.
