• Infected (green shield) Security Essentials 2010 and a trojan virus

  My computer is infected with Security Essentials 2010.  It started with Worm.Win32.Netsky.  I tried the fix recommended by Mick Murphy and I encounter the following problems.  Work in SafeMode with network can't access the malwarebytes or on the website of spybot.  Message says "Internet Explorer cannot display this page".  I have tried other sites of malware remover and could access Spyware Doctor (pctools.com) recommended in a book, so I know that it is legitimate.  I downloaded the program, does restarting asked and tried to do a scan. the message says "Network Diagnostics cannot run while the window is in safe mode.  So I tried to boot into normal mode and now my desktop does not load.  Is there something more, what can I do?  Thanks for your help.

  Did you follow ALL of the instructions concerning the JUDGMENT of the ROGUE process before the scan with Malwarebytes?

  If you rebooted your system, you have not followed the information provided.
  
  Read the info at the link below:

  1. Print these instructions we will have to close each open window later in the fix.
  2. It is possible that the infection you are trying to delete does not allow you to download files on the infected computer. If you find this is the case if you follow these instructions, then you will need to download the files requested in this guide to another computer and then transfer them to the infected computer. You can transfer the files via a CD/DVD, external hard drive or USB key.
  3. Before we do anything, we have to terminate processes belonging to Security Essentials 2010 so that it does not interfere with the cleaning procedure. To do this, download the following file on your desktop.
     

     Rkill.com download link

  4. Once it is downloaded, double-click on the rkill.com in order to try automatically stop all processes associated with Security Essentials 2010 and other Rogue programs. Please be patient while the program seeks to various malware programs and end to them. When it's over, the black window will close automatically and you can continue to the next step. If you get a message that rkill is an infection, don't be concerned. This message is just a fake warning given by Security Essentials 2010, when it terminates programs that can potentially remove. If you encounter these infections warnings that close Rkill, a tip is to leave the warning on the screen and then run Rkill again. By without closing the warning, this typically will allow you to bypass the malware trying to protect itself so that rkill can terminate Security Essentials 2010. So, please try to run Rkill until malware is no longer running. You will then be able to proceed with the rest of the guide. If you continue to have problems to run rkill.com, you can download iExplore.exe or eXplorer.exe, which are renamed rkill.com copies and try them instead.

     Do not restart your computer after running rkill as malware programs will start again.

  5. Now, you should download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, or MBAM, from the following location and save it to your desktop:
  6. Follow the steps above to the address provided.

• Automatic updates do not. Discovered when trying to install Security Essentials.

  I have XP - Media Center Edition.  It has been updated to SP - 3 some time ago.  I've always used updates to power off, so I never see the process underway.

  I just uninstalled Norton 360 and that he would upgrade to MS Security Essentials, but Setup has failed.  I then googled the error code and found an article that said that it could be related to not having all the updates.  I went and manually start the automatic updates and I found it is bombed on.  Then I checked the log and found that it worked very well until an automatic update around September 17, 2009.  After this, almost all the automatic updates failed.  I never know what I used the update to the power down of the method.

  I found a post that says (Phase 1) stop the windows update routine and rename the folder "c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" and then restart the windows update routine.  Phase 2 was to force a reinstallation of Windows Update Agent.  I did these things and when I did an update, found that an update loaded for windows, but all other updates (for things like the Net.frame) and other applications, has failed.  Try to install Security Essentials also bombed.

  I looked through the forums and found that most of the people are referred to an article on whether you installed the SP3 before restarting after repair or installation of SP2.  This doesn't seem to be my problem.

  I hope that this story sounds familiar to someone who can guide me to a solution.  I still haven't yet installed virus protection program and really want to use the bulk of the security.

  Thanks for any help you can give,

  John

  [1] the error Code is 0 x 80070643.

  [2] Yes, this machine has had two or three other versions of Norton until I removed it.  Each previous version and the last have been that all deleted using the function "Remove Programs" "control panel".

  A1. See http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/msestart/thread/908fad3e-f9fc-4d8a-be83-ae7d3bc48db5

  A2. Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. double-click on the file that you saved in #1 above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4 test cycle.

• I am trying to remove security obsolete updates__

  I have a laptop with a small disk hard due to the fact that it's used a lot I have xp security updates from 2007-2008-2009 and I think I'm for 2010 so, how do I know which ones of these security updates are is most needed to keep running my xp.  I need to know to eliminate those that I do not need and do more than place on my laptop once more.  Given all this gibberish on my laptop makes it slower than molasas.  I need help ASAP

  You don't want to uninstall updates. You can remove the $NTUninstall - and that these folders - folders from the Windows directory. To make more room on your hard drive uninstalling programs, you have more desire and do general maintenance. Get an external hard drive and copy your data files (music, films, photos) on it and then delete the files of the primary hard drive. Or buy a bigger hard drive and clone the smaller one for her.

• Windows Defender can co-exist with MS Security Essentials? With the Defender had MsMpEng resourse problem.

  My system resources were used to the top by MsMPEng.exe when investigating, looked that Windows Defender was the problem.  Installed MS Security Essentials seems to have solved the problem.

  For those who are on the cable of the Charter as an ISP provider, F-Secure will suck all your cpu cycles to the top

  If you use Microsoft Security Essentials, there is no need to use Windows Defender. You can disable that and just let Microsoft Security Essentials run things. Microsoft® Security MVP, 2004-2009

• Impossible to update of Windows Media Player and Microsoft Security Essentials and the error is "access denied error 80070005."

  Apparently an involuntary change of administrative privileges or permissions (Windows XP Pro, SP3) keeps me updated Media Player version 9 to 11 v. and updated virus Security Essentials definitions.
  For Media Player, wmsetup.log reports access denied error 80070005 and UpdSpAPI.log reports access denied for the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding\LowRate registry key. In regedt32, I'm blocked from display HKLM\...\MediaPlayer\Settings and below, and "are allowed to view the current permission settings, but... can make a change." Except that I can't. I can enter the change but get «...» Access is denied"trying to apply them. So this is the first problem that I need help.
  But of course it's more than a registry key and the subkeys, because MSE too is affected and will download but not install virus definitions. WindowsUpdate.log reports: failed to install with error 80070643.
  My user account (it's the only one!) is part of the Administrators group and all that I tried to verify administrative permissions is positive. This is a new issue. No virus/malware, according to MSE, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, MalWarebytes Anti-Malware.

• MS essentials 2010 has caused errors.

  I downloaded mseinstall version 2.1.1116.0 Microsoft Security Essentials 2010 for Windows 7. He would only launch the Microsoft Scan instead of my AVG. Even though it says that I have a lot of infected files (in the first folder that it scanned), it won't clean them without paying me, even though my AVG is paid for. I uninstalled it then my AVG would once again, (which found nothing in the folder supposed to) and now Windows asks me which program to run programs with, and many programs does not just work. (I asked this on another thread, but I was responding to someone an answer that worked for me.)

  (I was going to ask) Why Windows 7 itself be installed on a computer that does not meet the minimum requirements of the system allow?

  My rate 2.8 computer freezes often, except in Mode without failure. "Dear Microsoft, I want a computer that just works. Why I'm a PC? Windows 7 was not my idea. »
  Can a 'safe mode' that allows sound, cd burning and USB support Microsoft? Why the image viewer cannot run in safe mode, even if Media Player works (while the computer is dumb)?

  You have not downloaded the MS Security Essentials official you downloaded a malware scam product.

  Security Essentials can come directly from MS and it's free

• Is it possible to stop or interrupt the Microsoft Security Essentials instead of uninstall / reinstall whenever there is a problem?

  I'm on my computer Toshiba Satellite phone, Windows Vista Home Premium x 86 32-bit Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5250 1.80 gh 2 GB RAM with Service Pack 2, when using windows firewall regular and Malwarebytes anti-malware.

  I am trying to get into Windows Defender to remove the stuff start menu because my computer is running way to slow down. About 6 months ago I had a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials by turning and stay Orange (at risk) and say it wasn't scanning, but it has been. At the time, I was not aware that Windows Defender would be put off. Now, it seems that it is disabled automatically. There no way to disable MSE, if I try to change my start up programs in Defender, or even when I am trying to download programs, I always end up having to uninstall MSE, download the program and then reinstall MSE. It takes a long time and really makes me want to go back to AVG or even a different program. Help and faq are unclear and seem to leave a lot of information on. I left on the 'default' settings, for when something is happening, but I'm not quite sure this is the correct setting.

  I need instructions in plain language, and it's really hard to find. Since I left my computer unprotected for download or try to change things, I'm afraid that something got. I just went through a clean installation due a person with remote access in my system and I lost a lot of pictures, records, etc., I'm always worried about security now and don't know if I should stay with MSE or not.  I used the care a before Scan and he had difficulty my registry keys, that having people tell me I shouldn't have let microsoft fix my computer. (this was before the clean install). It's just confused and contradictory and not enough information. Windows Defender has a 'stop', does MSE?

  This is probably not the right area, but I specifically ensured that when I signed into hotmail the box 'Save password' was unchecked. I am registered on another forum, then signing in this one, he had my password registered and logged in me full?  Same thing with contacts - my old msn contacts have a way for this 'hacker' enter my computer through MSN messenger, he gave her the permission above my permission admin, so I couldn't get out. Although I asked that the old account closed a bunch of time - I guess there is still there waiting for like a year? Now I have a new email in hotmail, the clean computer, and the dang thing starts my old top loading details is on his own... - Anyway, my main concern is can I pause or stop the MSE? Can I use the Scan a care after I had no protection? and is there a place explaining MSE in regular normal verbiage with more information then what is on the help and information and download page?

  Thanks for your time,

  Nanette
