Problems of Virus and security possible - Win32/PowerRegScheduler

Question: The problems of security and viral infection

Hello

I'm sorry that I don't really have a great understanding of the computer virus so I don't know what information is relevant. I think most of what follows suggests an infection by the virus:

I recently updated my free version of AVG Anti-Virus Free in the new 2011 edition. During installation, it has encountered an error (I don't remember details, possibly missing dll files) so I decided to cancel, restart my laptop and try again. When my laptop from loading until he said that there was a problem one windows had begun a check disk on drive C. It became clear and if I booted up and installed the AVG software.

This seems to be the point at which the following problems started. It may have been independent, but it seems to me as an opportunity where my laptop's security has been compromised.

Since the installation, I have a number of security issues. I first noticed security warning balloon popping up at startup alert me that my firewall or my anti-virus software has been active in. I have not installed a firewall and account on the firewall of a security xp at this time. My laptop has anti-malware/spyware called "Spybot Search and Destroy". As mentioned earlier that my anti-virus is AVG Free edition. The firewall when checked reading disabled until the computer was nearing completion with respect to the start of all substantive programmes and anti-virus and anti-malware programs would read the same thing, are they loaded at all. (Also, I'm not sure if this is relevant, sorry again, but the menu at the top of the AVG Software bar flashes briefly when you hover over a button, briefly displaying a sign different menu under: S)

As I try to keep my computer up to date for all programs, I check the windows updates regularly. For the first two weeks (before the avg installation problems), I didn't have a problem, but more recently Windows Update stopped several times to answer once started and only after several attempts to close the program and then restarting it again it will work

After reading briefly on latest threats virus (Win32/Sality.AM, containing similar symptoms) I decided to use the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner. He detected a medium threat program: Win32/power Reg Scheduler. This program did not appear when I ran this scan before and nothing appeared on an AVG scan at all.

All the details are:

Program: Win32/power Reg Scheduler

c:\Program InstallShield installation information\ {f31bc49f-ab7b-4a53-a399-eb7331b585bc} \data1.cab

After a failed attempt to delete it also says:

detected: (inshld #0004)-[rsrcemb]

Any advice on how to remove the virus if it is indeed a would be useful and appreciated. I would like to use anti-virus software to remove it but the AVG software does not locate a problem and care scanner a Windows Live is unable to clean it up. If it does not seek to be a virus no matter what other help to solve security problems would be useful.

Thanks for any help and I'm sorry for the length of this article. I would like to shorten but I don't really know what that is and is not important.

What happened is that when the installation failed, left it "garbage" files that are trying to work, but can not function properly.  These files are what caused the error that you are experiencing.  My advice is first perform an uninstall of the avg anti-virus (I say this because to say what your first post, you had a corrupted/defective update of the old version (2010 I guess)).  After uninstall you AVG AV, double check that all the avg files have been properly removed.  After that, install AVG AV of the downloaded installation.  Here is a link to the avg homepage, they have the free download on the cover page:

I hope this helps!  If it isn't, feel free to write me at:

    Try the methods provided below and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

  • Problems with youtube and security always on filter

    Hello

    I use a s100v virtual wsa. I'm giving you access to YouTube in the strategy of access and politics of decryption via a customized url.

    The site loads, and all right, except the videos require the security to be disable filter do not work.

    No matter how many times I click on and then save the filter always stay on.

    If I disabled the proxy, everything works fine. I use the proxy transparent with port 80 and 443.

    Thank you

    Security in Youtube filter uses Google Safe Search, and in access to the WSA political also has this option.

    If this option is enabled in the WSA under 'Content Filtering' access policy so there will be applied the Safe Search option and keep enable.

    You can check this option under (WSA GUI-> Web Security Manager-access policies >-> Url filtering-> content filtering) and see if you have this turn on or turn off.

    This is a complete scam.  You can report it to your local police.

    For your own protection, you should:
    • Change your passwords on email accounts, accounts financial and sensitive to which accounts you access online from this PC.  RIGHT NOW!
    • Run a full scan of your PC using your antivirus application...    Also download and run a full scan with Malwarebytes Anti-malware (free edition).  MBAM is a very good solution in addition to your primary backup antivirus/antimalware application.
    • I would also go here: https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Shared/Help.aspx and follow the advice of "I think that my PC is infected", including potentially calls MS help.
    • Above all, do not delay!  If you have any concerns about the handling of it, then disconnect your computer from the internet and call MS before anything else.

    I am running Vista Home Premium 32 bit on SP2.

    I just had my McAfee security expires and since I was not able to install security updates.

    I uninstalled McAfee and searched my system to make sure that it is completely gone, then I installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

    I was able to update its definitions of once and since I was not able to do so once again - instead, I get the error message "Virus and Spyware definitions update failed" and the code of error 0x80072efe

    I have since run a full scan of the system and the following were found on my system:

  • The safer browser and e-mail provider & how are these viruses and malware problems to spread?

    I use Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 10 to surf the web. In my view, they have everything to lose if their browser has problems of security, however, makes also large target. A Yahoo email account has been hacked. How, I don't know. Then the spam was sent to all my contacts. I have used e-mail accounts, with all programs of well known web site outside of Yahoo. Hotmail/Live, AOL, Gmail, mail, and inbox.com. They all seem to work. With spam being a problem on Yahoo & Hotmail. For me your browser must protect users against viruses and software malware and other things of that nature. Because surf the Internet, it's what you want to do with a browser. How is distributed most of these things? What is the e-mail provider and a more secure browser.

    Hi dough.

    I agree with Bugbatter that even if all the major Webmail as some antivirus e-mail scanning, but you cannot rely solely on them. Also, it is not a question of what browser or webmail is more secure or better. Don't forget a website or a program can be infected sometime or another. However there are a few things to you, as a user, can do to protect yourself. As BB says above. It is your responsibility because it is your PC, your account and your identity that you want to protect.

    1.) keep your operating system (including your browsers) and the security of programs up to date. There are programs such as Java, Flash, Reader which are important targets by malicious software so that they can be used to infect your computer. If you can, avoid them, otherwise, leave enable automatic update so that any security flaw can be fixed in time.

    2.) use a strong password. Combination of 10 or more letters, numbers and symbols using capital letters too. Use different passwords for all your sites; emails, social, banking and hang them on a regular basis.

    3.) don't be click happy. Do not open unknown emails and if a friend sends attactments, call him or her or answer her and ask if he or she send these attactments. If something seems fishy, it's probably so don't click on don't it. Do some research first. Have a special folder where you can download your attactments and scann again. Do not open it directly fron the site, and if possible have a secondary scanner to get a second opinion. Malwarebytes is a good choice.

    In open wifi hotspots) 4 (coffe shops, airports) switch your firewall to 'Public' if possible and avoid banking on cibersites using a public PC.

    5.) have a backup strategy. Make a regular backup of your system and important documents (files, photos, emails, videos, music, Fav). Win 7 and Win 8 joined, I understand, a very good program to do this. There are other third-party programs that can also make an image of your HARD drive regularly.

    I think those are the mayor points to be relatively safe, but I imaging of other members of this forum can add a little more.

    When you use Firefox, a site jumped upward and said it is Firefox search virus. He said then I got dangerous viruses and need to download a security program. It's for real? The site has been update32.escmce.ce.ms I googled this site and it does not exist. Now, I'm worried about security on my computer.

    Sounds very similar to what I had come last week. I did not now what the site was, but I noticed that the box seems to be analysis what were the Windows system files, it could not have been real. I do not download anything either, and I think that if you have not then you are probably safe. I am far from being an expert in the field and am sure that someone with more expertise will also. I learned that the best thing to do is vacuum history of cache, cookies and remove and close the browser. Don't try not even close the box that I have read. I don't know if I did or not. I think that there is some nasty things circulating right now try to deceive us in their installation on our Macs. I agree that it's a very scary experience. I was shaking when it first happened to me.

    I have xpsp3.  I was looking at my calendar to find out what day of the week, an event that happens in November, and unfortunately I forgot to go back to the date of the day before I have updated the definitions of viruses and spyware on MSE.  Now, MSE think my latest definitions of viruses and spyware are obsolete, because they were supposed to be updated three months from now.  So my question is: is it possible to reset the date of the last virus and update the spyware definitions in XP?

    Correct the date on your computer. Remove the antivirus/malware product and reinstall.

    -OR-

    To restore before the update, use the system restore. Make sure the date is correct. Update.
