You can also download and run rkill to stop the process of problem before you download and scan with malwarebytes

    The antivirus program that program anitvirus I try to install claims is still on my computer came with the computer when it was bought a little more than a year before.  This antivirus program was followed by another antivirus program.  The antivirus program on the computer at the time wherever he bought has been removed until the following antivirus program has been added.  The second antivirus on the computer program has been removed before my attempt to install the third-party antivirus program which States that the original anti-virus software came with the computer is always on it.  The antivirus program that is allegedly still on the computer is not on the list of installed program computer.  None of the two antivirus programs that were on the computer is on the list of installed programs computer.  How can I remove a program that is no longer on the computer?  Why the antivirus program that I try to install again could think that a program is still present on the computer where this program has been deleted if long ago?

    For the installer for your screen Capture... Open VLC and

  • It is better to have two antivirus programs to be sure?

    original title: MS Security Essentials?

    I am now under Webroot Internet Security complete and I was wondering if I have or should run/download MS Security Essentials? I read somewhere that it is better to have two antivirus programs to be sure. What should I do?

    Hi Richard,

    Contrary to what OU a course, you must have a real-time protection anitmalware/antivirus program installed on your computer. Major reason being disputes between two to treat an infection. However, you can have other scanners on request, indeed since no antimalware/antivirus software is 100% sure I'd say at least one to increase daily or weekly scans with your resident security program.

    Microsoft Security Essentials offers protection in real time for your home or small business PC that protects against software viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    If you Choose Microsoft Security Essentials cleaning/unistall this guarantee as well as programs of real-time protection previous using tools and methods remove properly.

    You should also consider how to use the Microsoft Safety Scanner(similar to MSE, but it is a self-contained/not installed scanner)http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Online scanners are also good second opinion option. My preference is ESET OnlineScanner.

    http://www.eset.EU/ESET-online-scanner

    Another recommendation is free WinPatrol. Although not a software program anti malware/antivirus in the usual sense of the term, it monitors your computer and landlords of any changes to your system that could be associated with malware. It can be run in real time with other products without conflidt because it does not take immediate action on the issues.

    I would also check the updates for your video card driver. Find the latest Windows Vista drivers for your specific computer model with the support site for your computer manufacturer. Be sure to get the right drivers for your specific version of Windows Vista, for example, 32-bit or 64-bit.

    If your mouse is a USB model, it can be useful to check the latest drivers for your motherboard (chipset) Vista to the support site for the manufacturer of the computer. Also, since you're here you can check for the other updated drivers for your system, i.e., audio, LAN (network), etc.

    If you have the graphics card Intel integrated, you can check on the website below:

    Update utility graphics card Driver Intel

    If you have not done so, see the support site of the manufacturer of the mouse for the Vista updated drivers, known issues with your specific models or known solutions.
