Norton Security Suite defragments my C drive

• My Norton security suite and the toolbar Norton will work with the new Firefox?

  A previous version of Firefox eliminated my Norton toolbar and I had to reload an older version of Firefox to get it back. I've been reluctant to upgrade to newer versions of Firefox because of this problem. You are now compatible with Norton?

  It depends on what version on Norton you have: I have Norton Security Suite (not to be confused with Norton 360). Free Norton Security Suite is available to Comcast customers. Updates following Norton Security seem to be a bit behind Norton 360. Norton said currently their Norton 360 product can be updated using Live Update and the toolbar does not work in Firefox 22, but this does not seem to solve the problem of the toolbar with Norton Security Suite. It is a very frustrating issue that is causing me does not want to update to Firefox.

• Norton Toolbar does not work with Firefox 17, provided Comcast Norton Security Suite, Win 7.

  I have Norton Security Suite provided by Comcast. Norton Toolbar does not work with Firefox 17.0.1 on my Win 7 machine. I lived all the questions on this topic and did all the steps and when I click on "Add-ons", he always says that the toolbar is not compatible. It works with IE, but I prefer to use Firefox.

  I had the same problem in the past. If you call customer Norton service toll-free they have always helped me start (without charges) when I have updated to a new version of Firefox - seems to happen every time even if I run the updates regularly. Hope that this phone help-Norton support is always very friendly and helpful-just Google their 800 number.

• Microsoft Security Essentials would conflict with Norton Security Suite?

  I have Norton Security Suite on my computer, provided by my ISP.  I've heard very good things about Microsoft Security Essentials.  Can I install it or it would conflict with Norton?

  It is never a good idea to use 2 applications of malware in real time.  It is also unnecessary.  Use one or the other.

  It was me I'd use MSE, Symantec causing much too much gel, crashes and is almost impossible to remove.

• Norton security suite does not read rikvm_38f51d56.sys malware?

  HP dv7 - 7247cl envy laptop

  Hey Mike,

  What operating system do you use? My quick research, this is not a virus. This file is associated with the Cyberlink software. Norton is aggressive enough to attack unknown files. Don't worry about this file, its not malicious in some way.

  I hope this helps!

• Computer hangs after you have uninstalled Norton Internet Security Suite

  I recently uninstalled Norton Security suite (it's too intrusive) and installed Microsoft Security Essentials.  Since then, the machine hangs with a black screen if it's for more than 30 minutes.  I tried to restore to a previous restore point, but the machine to restore to the previous point (I also tried in safe mode).  I went to the site of Norton and their uninstall program to ensure that all of the Norton was out of my machine.  Also, the machine will now not install the automatic updates from Microsoft (I have 4 in the meantime), even if I try manually.

  My operating system is XP Professional SP3

• Security Suite blocking Windows Media center to connect to the Extender

  I was initially a little happy home network with an xbox 360, a wired router and my pc under Windows 7 ULT(64bit) Norton 360 AV. During my AV license expires, I downloaded the version of my ISP (Norton Security Suite 4) to replace.

  Now I can't Media center to add or discover the Extender. I added to Windows Media Center svchost.exe to the list of permitted programs, but it doesn't have the thing.

  In help on the xbox live forums, suggestions are to work with the Windows Firewall not Norton. The Norton software has a different interface for the administration of the rules and I saw not a place where you can designate which programs can access which ports. And half of the programs listed as Qwave, Remote Desktop etc, I can't even find the interface of Norton.

  If anyone knows or has worked this issue before Norton Security suite please respond when you can. Thank you

  Hello

  You can try the steps below and check if that helps.

  (a) in the main window of Norton Internet Security (Protect computer, privacy), in the network pane, click settings.

  (b) under smart firewall, in line with program control, click Configure.

  (c) in the control of the program window, click Add.

  (d) in her select a program dialog box, locate the executable file for the program that you want to add.

  (e) click Open.

  (f) in the program control window, select the level of access that you want this program to have

  You can also check out the link below and check if that helps to allow access to the Media Center Extender.

• Bug from Microsoft which blocks the installation of McAfee Security Suite

  Verizon and McAfee tec support worked with a problem on my pc, it just got a new hard drive and a new installation of XP installed, not to mention the 200 updates, including service packs 1,2,3. I never had no problems installing or running the McAfee products until 17 days ago. Between myself, McAfee and Verizon tec support, McAfee Security Suite has been reloaded 48 times. During each load, not an error or warning appears, the hard drive acts like it is written for and downloads are all successful, when you close the installation following the instructions once the installation completes, it not there no trace of McAfee on the hard drive accept for some temporary files and some registry entries.

  After the last attempt to McAfee to install a new problem exists, during the verification of your license and your password, bothe the name and the password are incorrect. I have 2 other PC running XP both have Security Suite installed on them and they would be well if the bug was introduced as reciently like 2 months ago, some first encrypted in Microsoft updates, I discovered that more then a thousand other people have this problem.

  We used highly som software sofisicated of security registry and found no bugs, we used as several other safety analysis software on this pc and found nothing so it's new and directly to McAfee as other security software, for example. Norton, work very well. I would suggest to Microsoft to go threw your online updates and find a worm attached to one or more updates that activates this question. I have went up to now download the setup of each update of Microsoft and ran an individual scan on each update but nothing has been found that is why I really think it's the combination code through a number of updates that creates this bug and bring it to life.

  Only Microsoft has all the updates with the original code, they must go threw each update and find the configurations added / changed on their updates to resolve this problem, I would muself, but I'm not entittled to access the database of Microsoft where the original code was stored and compare it to the code distributed by Microsof'ts 'SECURE UPDATE DATABASE ".

  DOES ANYONE HAVE A LIST OF A LINK THAT HAS MICROSOFT WHO CAN RUN A SCAN ON THEIR SOFTWARE FOR ERRORS LIKE NO OTHER SECURITY SOFTWARE DETECTS MICROSOF'TS UPDATES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON THE WEB NEXT TO THE ORIGINAL SOFTWARE SAVED ILS?

• stop AV Security Suite infection

  Why my Norton Anti Virus did not prevent the AV Security Suite infect my laptop? I managed to do a full computer scan (while it is infected) and it gave the fire, which it clearly was not. This package will actually do the job? Is it possible to stop him coming back?

  Hi, geci.  Welcome to MS responses.

  As it is stated of mohdrafi, Bleeping Computer has for the rogue AV Security Suite removal instructions:

  How to remove AV Security Suite (uninstall Guide)

  I'd say the time to clear the system restore is after cleaning your computer.

  • Click Start, type Disk Cleanup in the search box
  • Click Disk Cleanup and select "Run as Administrator" and accept the UAC elevation prompt.
  • Select the drive where Windows is installed (if you have more than one drive), and then click 'OK '.
  • When the analysis is complete, check / uncheck the boxes that you want.
  • Then, please click the Other Options tab at the top.
  • Click on the button "Clean up...". ' under the heading ' System Restore and shadow copies "at the bottom.
  • Click delete in response to the question "Are you sure you want to remove all but the last restore point?", click OK andYes again .
  • The utility disk cleanup will delete the selected items.  When it is finished, restart the computer to properly save the changes on the hard disk.

  As to why your current antivirus software did not stop or detect the rogue, each software has definitions and different settings.  Make sure that you have the latest definitions before analysis.

• Satellite A100: Reinstalling Symantec Internet Security Suite

  Hello

  I tried to renew the subscription on security Internet from Symantec (Norton) after that 3 months free OEM subscription expired on my Toshiba A100 Satellite, but after I paid and everything that I could not subsequently confirmed the renewal and the security suite and the confirmation of the renewal of Symantec told me to uninstall the suite and reinstall.

  I managed to uninstall - question is how can I reinstall? I can't find the file of re-installation anywhere. Symantec support they told me to refer to the Toshiba support... How can I do?

  Hello

  This is an OEM version which is available for 3 months. As far as I know after 3 months, you have no privileges for updates and you should buy an original version.
  By elsewhere all applications of this are part on the image of Toshiba and it s not possible to install only one program.

  You must reinstall the entire image.

• Norton Security: install Windows 10 on HP probook 640 g1 with Norton security

  I bought Windows 7 Pro HP probook 640 http://www.newegg.com/ g1 and security http://www.anti-virus4u.com/ Norton can install Windows 10? I contact Norton support, the new version should support but that on my HP probook 640 g1 drivers if I install Windows 10 and Norton security? Can I download and install new drivers?

  A word of warning.  Windows 10 is a technical preview version and should not be installed on your primary work computer.  There is no official driver for it and you will have to rely on the generic drivers, that settles it.  All programs will have to be resettled, including Norton.

  The official RTM version should be stopped before the end of the year.
