IM totally new to computers in this age/era. should I install all updates and recommendations and why? And I use microsoft security databases to protect my computer. is that enough? If not what else?
Hello
Yes, you need to install all the applicable updates such as those that will enhance the functionality of the
computer and also help to ensure his safety.
=============================
MSE is an excellent antivirus/antispyware software.
Here's what I use and recommend:
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.
Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
Operation of the network.
Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
right of IE)
Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x - use only and no if using MSE.
Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
disabled - click OK
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download
Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
Finish those you don't use).
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4
Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
or use Google to see how to remove.
http://www.prevx.com/ <-->-->
http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp <-->-->
PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp
Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
(not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
I hope this helps.

I just bought a MBP of 2013 (MacBookPro) renovated with OSX 10.9 (Mavericks) and want to update my Safari (version 7.0.5) the latest version of Safari. I tried to download Safari from Apple's site, but he said that I would also install the current OSX (10.11 El Capitan) as well. I want my MBP to stay on OSX 10.9 (because it is the last operating system that supports Adobe Creative Suite CS6).
Can someone advise me on where I can download ONLY the last Safari?
Thank you
Steve
You cannot run the last Safari on Mac OS 10.9.
It requires the latest Mac OS (10.11)
You can create a new partition and install the latest OS above and use it.
Then the Mavericks partition boot when you want to use Adobe Creative Suite.

Error code: update 0 x 8007040424 when you try to start Microsoft Security Essentials
I can't update MSE. I have a red symbol indicating that I am unproteceted and whenever I try to start the update I get the same error code. I ran PC Cleaner and Malaware bytes, but it is still there.
According to your 'me, too' answer to another thread, you have managed to solve your problem, is that correct?...
... I have tried everything to get rid of the error code 0 x 80070424 that keep me update Microsoft Security Essentials. I tried all suggestions to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968002#method2 5, downloading and running the tool Norton removal by despair, but he persisited. Finally, I removed the Microsoft Security Essentials completely and it recharged from the MSE Web site, but I chose the new version for 64-bit applications. Downloaded, scanned the readers and found 2 more cleared Trojan horses their and I can say that I am back to normal. Finally.

Microsoft Security Essentials has been uninstalled and I can not find remnants of anywhere I can think of research. Something is always running in the background or otherwise to prevent this installation. I recently had other problems installation, update to install 4.5 etc.; but, despite this, I had to go into services and manually start the Microsoft Live just before you install something. I'm puzzled as to what part of the software MS Essentials is hiding somewhere. It works almost like a virus...
Have you tried installs with a beginning of 'Clean' of XP using msconfig etc.
Any help appreciated
Hi acls9862083,
1. What is the exact error message?
We recommend you to uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials manually and check if you can install the other program successfully.

Can I update and transfer the CS4 on new computer without CD player?
I have CS4 on my old computer. Would like to upgrade and transfer them to my new laptop, which doesn't have a CD player. How can I do this and is it possible to upgrade this old worm or I have to buy a course?
There is no upgrade available for CS4. The only version currently sold licensed permanently is CS6 and CS4 is not eligible for CS6 at an upgrade price.
If you want to install CS4 on a different computer, then you can download through the next page... CS4 products download

Can we download and install the Mavericks?
I'm running the mountain (10.8.5) Lion on my Mac mini and have so far resisted the upgrade of my OS because I have some expensive software that does not run on the latest OS. Now, I discovered that there is work on the Mavericks, but all I can find on Apple's site is an update of the Mavericks, which requires that one has already installed Mavericks. Is it possible that I can go from Cougar to the Mavericks?
I regularly back up my entire system with Time Machine and also with Carbon Copy Cloner. If Mavericks installation involves deleting everything on my hard drive, a backup performed while I was still running Mountain Lion would allow me to restore the contents of my HD in Mavericks?
Apple has removed the Mavericks and Yosemite from the App Store.
Only upgrade your option is El Capitan.

try to update and install the apps but a box opens telling me to enter my password
I need to update / install new applications in CC, but he is acting as if I have the wrong password. I have no trouble signing in Adobe. Only CC
I'm trying to update my adobe applications and install new, but a box pops up telling me to enter my password to continue, so I get my Adobe ID password and it does nothing. The box shakes back as the password is incorrect
Laigha,
It's probably your operating system that requires the password. Try to enter that instead and see if it works.

Re: trying to update and install the apps but a box opens telling me to enter my password
Pattie, I'm having the same problem. However I am sure that I am in my OS ID and not my Adobe ID. The box disappears (as opposed to shaking when evil) and then comes back blank. No idea how I can fix this problem?
Branched out in a new discussion.
Hi Callieh30902136,
You can try to disable the password of connection for a while and check if that passes through, Alternatively, you can try to create a user admin account and check if the installation is complete and share the results.
