• Error number: 0x80072EFF (unable to connect?) Impossible to update the SP

  Hello

  OK where to start! should start by saying that I was (not so) recently hit with a fake 'antivirus' Trojan horse who seems to have caused the effects of training on my pc. no doubt I've caused problems myself while trying to remove it!

  in any case, I am currently not able to be updated to SP 3. automatic updates (even if enabled) is not working and when I try an update manually via the ms site I get the above error.  I understand that this error means could not connect to server - Yes?

  If Yes, this is symptomatic of a problem persisting, I have with IE doesn't work usually does not as it should - connection problems show that other browsers can connect without a problem. the same problem also keeps me update of IE.

  can you please help?

  You see the effects of a hijackware infection, probably one of long date since you do NOT have a functional application of the antivirus installed (and you apparently disabled the automatic updates).

• Re-Setup does not continue after the reboot during installation

  I am trying to install windows vista on my laptop for a USB DRIVE.

  1. that I start my USB drive
  2. Enter the language settings
  3. choose clean install
  4. reformat my drive
  5. Windows Installer files & then restarts
  6. I get an error indicating that some vmsraid file is missing!

  SO I think that the boot manager not continues on the installation after restart! Why the hell vista needs to restart during the installation!

  PS > before starting the whole installation procedure, I got a similar error saying a file was missing

  and just for the knowledge base: vista worked FINE until I visited a site and got a paladin antivirus and then I tried a lot of things and I saw a startup folder and in it, there are AB, records etc. AC, which I think would have been absurd so I tried to delete the thembut they wouldn't, so I renamed the startup folder and ffff. and then from then on, I got an error after a reboot! so I decided to do a clean install of vista!

  Hello shez1983,

  Yes, if you have a 3 GB of RAM on your computer and 2 sticks. You can try to remove one of the RAM stick and check if the installation goes through.

• I think that Firefox is infected by a Trojan virus, I run a scan complete antivirus but it captures what anyone

  I believe that the virus is associated with firefox, I run a full scan using McAfee antivirus, but it shows nothing. Firefox constantly shows no sign that responded to the questionnaire, then it will be back to normal. Or I have to go into the Task Manager and terminate firefox.

  There is a fake transaction from my bank account, is anyway I have a remove the Trojan?

  Hi leehuiling

  Try again with some virus/malware scanning programs. You must use all of the programs, because each detect different malware. Make sure you update each program to get the latest version before doing a scan.

• Avira Antivirus Premium 2012 keeps returning (fake?) positive for the horse of Trojan TR/tr/dropper.Gen

  Avira Antivirus Premium 2012 retains its positive (fake?) back to TR/tr/dropper.Gen Trojan. Avira gives me the ability to clean the file, I always accept, a scanner and then closes. In a few hours (or minutes), there comes another plus (fake?) for TR/tr/dropper.Gen.

  I have to temporarily disable direct protection to use my MS Word which is annoying and dangerous.

  To get a second opinion, I have downloaded and run the MS 1.0.3001.0 Security Scanner that was able to detect viruses, spyware or potentially unwanted software on my system (running Windows XP).

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
  scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
  the cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
  the regular windows when you can.

  TDSSKiller.exe. - Download the desktop - so go ahead and right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN
  It will display all the infections in the report after you run - if it will not run changed the name of
  TDSSKiller.exe to tdsskiller.com. If she finds something or not does not mean that you should not
  check with the other methods below.

  I have a desktop hp pavilion a1600, OS is windows xp.  I was unable to open windows a few days earlier because of a "corrupted file".

  Each time Firefox opened

  == I tried to access a website

  Hello Dave deaf.

  It is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

  Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and theme and this one for plugins.

  If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

  In addition, it is possible that your system is infected by malicious software. To search for malicious software, install, update and run these programs in this order. They are all free for personal use, some have limited functionality in their 'free mode', but the features you won't miss are not really necessary to find and remove the problem you have. Remember that not all programs detect the malware even!

• Got the Trojan.Zbot before the antivirus kicks. All previous emails show they are there but cannot see the content. They can be restored?

  All old emails show they are there, but there is no content when you try to open them.

  right click on the folder, select Properties, and then on the button repair. A new index will be generated which can fix the issue or do the empty emails disappear because they are no longer available to be indexed.

  BTW look in your anti virus program for files quarantined with names like Inbox

• Trojan Zmutzy 26 found on my MacBook Pro

  BitDefender Antivirus found a Trojan 26 Zmutzy on my MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite, version 10.10.5,, but it has not removed. It's also on my external hard drive / Time Machine. It seems to make copies of itself (78). How can I get rid of him?

  Hello BernP,

  It seems to be of Windows Trojan horse spread through e-mail spam. It is harmless to your Mac. Don't let not your antivirus trying to remove. It too would be corrupting your mail database and probably your Time Machine backup.

• Name - 2 or 3 good programs FREE to remove TROJANS from my old Compaq?

  • AdwCleaner (for more information, see this other AdwCleaner download page)
  • Hitman Pro
  • ESET Online Scanner

  Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

• FF's download Gen:Trojan.Heu.JP.xu2@aiijmUgi of each site, I've tried.

  I tried to download FF from the Mozilla site with the heel, just tried on the site without the stub, try Softonic all with the same result. I tried to remove programs from the Control Panel program, but it won't uninstall. I had to go to drive C:, programs, Mozilla and remove each item individually. I am running Vista 32 bit. I really like firefox and believes it was one of the safer browsers on the site, but now I'm worried. I also read other questions about Trojans installed in 2014.

  Can't help that some antivirus clients still false positives for the stub installer even if it has existed since Firefox 18.0, yet the same antivirus is very good with the complete installation program.

• Trojan horse on my mac!

  I ran the Bitdefender anti-virus on my MacBook Pro and it is Trojan.JS.RAN and I was surprised that I'm always careful what to download and install!

  I removed it, but now I'm not sure that this Trojan horse on my computer? and what should I do to make sure that there are more malware/virus on my computer? and what is the best antivirus/antimalware should I use in the future?

  NB: I've always updated my Mac every time that one updates see the place!

  Thank you

  Probably a false positive. Google has shown just this and a site similar listing Trojan.JS.RAN.  "Anti" software for mac not cause often false positive.
