  • What is Windows Defender system and from where it comes.

    Today at about 06:00 this program showed on my desktop from anywhere. He tells me I have 21 different Trojans, viruses, worms and other problems. I have a software that follows all this and he said NO problem on my computer.
    When I click on the little window that says delete told me I have to pay to get this deleted _ anywhere from $49.99 to 89.99.
    It is popping up every few minutes. All attempts to remove Windows Defender failed. Have no idea where it came from, or why he was charged. I refuse it .exe when he came on the console.
    Jim Dicken

    System Windows Defender is a fake anti-spyware that uses fake malware files and fake scan detections to fool you into thinking you are infected. Once installed, Windows Defender system will be configured to start automatically when Windows starts. The installer will also create many files on your computer that will then be detected as malware when the program will scan your computer. If you try to remove these supposed infections with Windows Defender system, however, it will state that you must first purchase the program until he does. This tactic of creating fake malware files which will then be detected by the rogue program is a common one used by thieves to trick into thinking you are infected.

    How Windows Defender is on this problem?

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    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.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

    Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Printing which forms an angle seems ok, but one that is horizontally seems faded, incomplete.

    I was wondering if I saved a layer somewhere and set it as a default value.

    If you group the layers, you will be left with a single layer, thus spreading your concern.

    Suggest that you do the following:

    1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printers
    2. Reset the default preferences.

    Hold the Alt, Ctrl + Shift keys when you click the icon to open the items. When asked if you want to delete the settings file, say Yes.

    I'm a computer technician who makes a TON of virus remove money from Windows computers.  Two-thirds of my tasks of repair involving the elimination of viruses from Windows and trying to fix the Internet Explorer, the worst browser known to humanity.

    I have a question about Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool.  These are two programs entirely worthless, evidenced by the fact that computers with them installed still get infected of all viruses, Trojan and rootkit out there.  Clearly, if these two programs of malware Microsoft has done anything to protect your computer, it would have been without having to release still a THIRD tool antivirus, "security essentials" for Microsoft.   I'm not complaining — the way Microsoft Windows absorbs malware like a sponge, put a lot of money in my bank account. Please keep doing what you're doing... however...

    My question is, given that Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool doing nothing to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?

    Windows defender is not an antivirus program, it is designed to protect against spyware.

  • Problems with Windows Defender, the computer support.

    I have spyware doctor™ installed and registered on my computer. Yet windows defender has repeatedly popped up and resumed my computer turning off not only spyware doctor™, but also all the other programs on the computer. I do manual restore just to remove the program. Also when he takes over the system it starts automatically from the internet and brings up all kinds of advertising. How this program can be stopped. All my firewall and security settings are set to high. Windows allows however in it because it has the certificate of microsoft.

    This is like Microsoft's Windows Defender. It seems that your computer is infected, probably by a rogue security program. The real Microsoft Windows Defender doesn't not part of Windows XP.

    Your system is infected with a rogue antivirus program. It's called "thugs" because he pretended to be a good guy but is really bad. Don't pay them!

    These can work for you, and all can be good. However, in many cases the computer will also infected with other horses of Trojan and protected by a rootkit. These machines are extremely difficult to clean. If your machine is one of these cases, either the interactive assistance to one of the specialty forums listed in the link below, OR take your machine to a professional on the local computer OR backup your data and do a clean install of Windows.
