  Hi Chris,

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum. I understand that XP SP3 Security Center will not recognize Norton Internet Security. I would like to help solve you the problem.

  Method 1.

  Disable the firewall and check if that helps.

  Note: you should not disable Windows Firewall, unless you have another firewall is activated. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.

  Method 2.

  Rename the storage folder.

  1 - Go to control panel, and then open administrative tools.

  2 - click on Services.

  3-go down to Windows Management Instrumentation and stop this service.

  4. stop the Security Center service.

  5-exit and close all windows.

  6. right click on start and select explore.

• 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.

  Screenshot: http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/4842/39404938.jpg

  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.

  If anyone has any suggestions please how I can remove this guy?

  Thank you, Matt.

• Windows Firewall and Security Center will not start, error 1068 and 1079

  I can't start my firewall Windows, error: 1079... or Security Center, error: 1068. Can help you with this question? When I try to access the Dependencies tab I get this error: Win 32: the specefied for this service is different from the specefied to account for other services running in the same process.

  I checked to see if dependencies were the same account before I got the message of 'Win 32' and WMI Service runs in the same account (Local Service) as firewall and Security Center, but the RPC Service is running on the Network Service account and cannot be changed via the services console, because the account fields are gray and cannot be viewed or modified. I try to avoid using the tool 'SubInACL' because I don't want to reset the whole registry.

  Help, please!

  The other post:

  I had a problem with obtaining the Windows Firewall and Security Center to start. Service account permissions have been changed at some point, including the depedencies. I get the error 1079 on the Windows Firewall and 1068 on the Security Center. Both are defined on the Local Service, but dependence, the CPP is set to Network Service and cannot be changed because the user fields are gray. I try to avoid using the SubInACL.exe because I don't want to reset the whole registry. Can you help me please?

  No, I'm not on a domain. I connect via a open wireless "hotspot". My main problem is; I don't have a Firewall or Security Center. Nor will begin. I get the error: 1068, to Security Center and an error: 1079 on Windows Firewall. When I try to access the dependencies on either I get this window:

  WIN 32: The account specified for this service is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process.

  A month ago I made the mistake of trying to brand of ACDSee of security, "ACDOne" which includes software "BitDefender". That's when I lost my firewall and Security Center. BIG MISTAKE! I uninstalled and deleted all the files that I found that have been left.

  My Security Essentials and Windows Defender work very well. I'm stuck and need help with this please! Please, I beg you! Someone... Help!

  The system cannot find the specified file.

• Security Center: can not turn on

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas: can depend on a Security Center. Right click and the button start is not bold. How can I restore it? I use windows vista and can not understand the system restore?

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began:

  Restore point:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

• Windows Firewall and Security Center will not be open - Application not found

  When I right click on my computer then properties, I get an error message "Application not found c:/windows\system32\rundl32.exe.

  In Control Panel, when I click on the Security center and windows firewall, I get the same thing.

  In the past, when I click on the above, the properties come with several tabs and the info on my computer and the firewall came to show if it is on or off.

  I recently downloaded by Comcast Norton Security Suite. I don't know if this happened before or after that.

  Also, I had something like 'XP Active something' burst by saying I had someone trying to hack into my computer and I might have a virus and run a scan now that I did. He came in saying that a list of things have been found and set up a page where I can buy protection for $59.99 per year. I did that and I who sold his to run a scan with Norton. It showed that she had blocked a Trojan horse and had several blocks of attempts to access my computer.

  Can someone please tell me what to do? I am not very computer English savvy, so simple and clear please.

  Thank you!

  Hi, it seems that you have an infection of malicious software on your computer, the best way is to run the Security Scanner

• Vista Media Center will play is no longer the DVD or TV?

  Windows vista media Center will not play TV, although he did it again and it will not read the DVD more, but there again. The answers would be gratefull.

  OK, forget the TV, I have now it works well.

  But I still can't read the DVD.

  After having put in a disk, it makes a funny sound as if she is looking for the disc backwards & fordwards permanently. After some time when nothing is happening and I'm going to eject the disc, a popup said cannot detect a disk.

  This happens on the plant as well as those burned discs.

  What happens if you try to play outside of the WMC?
  If it is it may be a disk problem.

  Hello

  As Windows was preinstalled on your computer, you must contact the Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to reinstall of Vista drive. I suggest to fix vista problems, before you start the upgrade to Windows 7 if it is not upgrade may freeze or you will receive errors.

  After reinstall of Vista drive, you can perform SFC scan offline using the disc. Follow the steps below to do so.

  a. Insert the installation disc.

  b. restart your computer.

  c. click on the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.

  d. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

  Note:

  If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

  e. Select your language settings and then click Next.

  f. click on repair your computer.

  g. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

  h. in the System Recovery Options menu, select command prompt

  i. type ' sfc/scannow' and check.

  You can also do the Startup Repair after receiving drive, the detailed procedure is suggested below:
