• Question about processor and Windows. need to answer accrdingly to discription below. ?

  I use windows xp. on cpu 2.4, 1 gb ram and 256 of the hard drive. and I am aware of two pins in my processor is broken by the heat of combustion. the system still works fine. but the only problem that I face is that it takes 3 x the normal time to copy the data from the drive usb or vice versa...  This is: it is because of the processor broken pins to copy slow. and is there a way to solve via software system say avoid those specifice pins or some how? ?   Hopefully the issue is understandable. answer please...

  Pins broken on a processor and things still work, and your concern is slow copy?

  What is "thermal burning?  You can expand on how these pins really broken?

  There is no software (that I know) to "move" broken material as you describe.  You would be better to spend a little money to find a replacement processor or a replacement processor and motherboard that will accept your current memory, etc. MY HUMBLE OPINION.

  Is * only * the cause of your slow copy - questionable.  Save more explanation of what happened to the pins of the processor - I suspect there is other damage suffered by the system, you don't even know of which could cause slow best USB.  Something with the motherboard, possibly.  Specifically the same USB ports.

  I mean - you could back up everything, perform a clean installation of the operating system and see if it works better after loading the latest drivers form the manufacturers of hardware components in your machine costs and clean...  Otherwise - shot in the dark so that blindfolded and ignoring obvious cries of "stop, don't shoot."  * smile *.

  Side also - comment - if there is something wrong * everything * and you declare it here, the system * not * "are still working fine.  * smile *.

• Question about WebWorks and Windows 10 compatibility

  I would like to know, can I run on Windows 10 WebWorks? Someone at - it tried?

  As far as I know that it has not been tested officially. I do not think that you will be able to install it there because of the requirements inherited in the installer itself, but running it I expect to work. Cordova, which it inspired, is used to create applications for Windows 10, so I think it's reasonable for the base code works very well.

  I'll test it when Windows 10 comes out at least, and I'll see if I can try it on the preview in a VM too.

• Hanging of Thunderbird 38, gel and does not question. 17 accounts pop (Win 8.1, MalwareBytes and Windows Defender)

  Since the update of Thunderbird to 38.* I had nothing but problems with Thunderbird wedging (spinning wheel waiting), a "Mozilla Thunderbird (not answer) ' in the header bar, whiting of window application out and possibly TB box in hell - a small box to appear asking if I want to - close the program, expected so he can resolve itself , or check the internet, then close. I now give the floor it the box to hell (B2H - call it all you want, but I'm cursed every time he pop up!)

  I did everything proposed here and nothing suits. I have used Thunderbird for years with all the same files and Add ons WITHOUT problem. On the first day of the 38 update everything has changed. When Mozilla realizes that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!

  Here is what I tried with nothing working...
  1. I don't have AVG, the only malware bytes and windows defender
  2. it still happens in SafeMode with no active add-on.
  3. I stopped saving function which slows down the frequency of the sinking, but did not eliminate the problem.
  4. I have deleted hundreds of older emails, thinking it was that but who have done nothing.
  5. I changed some accounts of POP at the thought of iMAP that was the problem but nothing has changed.
  6. I made several attempts to patch both Mozilla support and outdoors on the net. Nothing works. Looking at all the people who have the same problems, I have to say that the problem is handling of file. I noticed that as the issue with others who have multi files and emails. The answer is not to reduce these volumes but to understand why thunderbird managed their fine before and what has changed to make the program hang now? Who should be on your end, taken responsibility. Keep us faithful and solve the problem...

  Here are my tips...

  A. I have several files and thousands of e-mails longer and have manged fines, as matter of fact, Thunderbird has been great. Then like a good stooge I approved the moz and did my upgrade to 38. Never had a problem before the upgrade. After the upgrade, everything went to *.

  B. the 38 version upgrade was a big change. When I look in the folder that has been labeled the envoys or Inbox folder (where all emails from each account is collected), all the emails listed would disappear when I moved my mouse over them! Emails disappearing! They were there in records specific e-mail below but not but in the case of head as if it were just a day earlier and with the upgrade. I thought that as an addition on the question and waited for the difficulty that happened not so long ago. Again, which could be a problem of record add-on.

  C. the upgrade to 38 were other issues, but if the madness going no problem was not bad enough, the problem seems to be growing with each ' update or bugfix that followed. Don't hold me to it but I think it was in 38.1.2 or 8 (I think that's it. I wasn't paying attention, but if I had known that I would have to tell it, I will!) That's when hanging interminably long. When the program closed at least I got a project saved, then I read on line that the problem was the registration of open messages, I turned the auto reduction. He did change the frequency of the hanging (white screen pause) and timing (where the B2H appears), but he was always there and always!

  D. I had hoped with 38.2 there will be improvements. Nothing has changed. I didn't know that 38.3 would make this change/fix, but it's not. If I write all this, so you have what I know as a loyal user since 2007.

  E. here is what you need to complete the picture. I'm on a PC running 8.1. on an Intel i7-4770, with 32 GB of ram, now you tell me when you will issue the update to fix the problem! Once again, Mozilla, I suggest you start by looking at how TB 38 manages several emails, files and archives. Not all of us have only one e-mail account. Most of us have been really happy with TB before 38. If you can't find the question, can you show us how to get back to a version prior to 38?

  Thanks for listening and hope that helps!

• Norton Internet Security and Windows Defender

  Is there a conflict between NIS and Windows Defender if both are running?

  Yes bacause NIS has antuspyware built and running. Windows defender is a spyware protection program. They will both be in conflict. Disable defender, Norton spyware detection rate is anyway better than the Defender.

• Problems Windows Security Center, firewall, and Windows Defender.

  This problem started about a month in December when I had Windows Vista Home Security 2011 Virus. I followed the steps described in the Guide here:
  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-vista-home-security-2012 to fix (Bleeping Computer). I thought that it would be solved the problem.

  Recently, I had trouble with my internet. I can connect to my wireless router and everything seems in order, but when I start my computer, I can't view Web pages - I Internet Explorer and Firefox, none of them works. Once I restart my computer, it works like a charm.

  While trying to fix this, I realized the Microsoft Security Center and firewall have been disabled. I could not turn them back on. In Services, I neither Security Center or a firewall, and all of the other solutions I tried did not work. Help?

  In addition, after checking, the registry values for the Security Center and Windows Defender firewall disappeared. Help please? All the Fixit on the Microsoft Support site failed.

• In Windows 7 Action Center, MSE, and Windows Defender convertible 'ON' at the same time?

  In the center of Action of Windows 7, Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) is enabled.  I tried to turn on Windows Defender 'manually' and get a status of "OFF"OBSOLETE"? that quickly toggles back and forth

  I'm trying to maximize my options "malicious."  I have NOT tried turning 'OFF' MSE to see if Windows Defender will be 'ON '.

  My real question is, can MSE and Windows Defender, being 'ON' at the same time or are mutually?

  A "full scan" using MSE detected the following malicious program "trojan:Win32 / Tracur.AV". I immediately deleted it. I think it's GONE!

  My "quick" weekly scans did not detect this malware. What a scare on my new laptop TOSHIBA P750.

  Now I take the time 'always' do a full scan.

  Help

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft community.

  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.

  You should only use an antivirus program. using several programs at the same time will cause problems.

  Please refer to this link:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/protect/Forum/MSE-protect_start/Windows-Defender-and-Microsoft-Security-Essentials/5309cb8d-02e1-40E8-974f-0dcedb9ab9fd

• Equium L40 very slow and Windows Defender found a Trojan horse

  I was wondering if you could help me with a situation.

  Turned my laptop on and Windows Defender found a Trojan, so I chose all clear. Then it arrived 5 minutes later and I pressed on delete everything again.

  Afterwards my internet is incredibly slow and often freezing.
  Opening files and folders often locked up but I could still click on the red X if it took 30 seconds to close after that I clicked on the X.

  I get now random pop ups not even on the internet.

  Do you have any suggestions?

  Thank you.

  Hi Kieran

  Have you tried different antivirus software?
  I would recommend this. I use a software called Antivir freeware antivirus and it is nice.
  It of free and you can download it from various internet sites.

  In addition, you could use an Ad-aware to kill this Trojan horse. It of also for free and maybe it could be useful too.
  Google just to download it for free.

  If you won't be able to remove the virus from your system by using programs like Antivir, antivirus Norton antivirus, etc. and then use your Toshiba Recovery CD.

  I think this should help.

  Good bye

  Hello

  Yes you still need an antivirus program and you are right that Norton tends to cause problems.

  Norton Removal Tool
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

  You want to remove Norton and old and even uninstalled antivirus can leave remnants then download and run
  the Norton Removal Tool. Also, I would get Avast and Prevx and you should be in good shape.

  Download the 3 to get back to after removing the McAfee antivirus.

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT after each.

  --------------------------------------------------------

  Here is what I use:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/

  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 suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie 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.

  http://www.Malwarebytes.org/

  I hope this helps.

• Question about Java and other concerns

  It was in the original thread Java, decided that it should be easier in the separate thread.

  A simple uninstall will get rid of Java, or leftovers to stick around. After picking up the Live safety scanner fake Trojan or whatever it is, I did some scans online in addition to MMFA, who got rid of him in a quick scan and SAS, and Windows Defender. You don't know if AntiVir would be cleaned, but MBAM it in the short term. Thought I was clicking on a secure link, but I learned enough here to start in Safe Mode, run MBAM, and WD of Tower and Windows Security Center and return to normal. Somewhere along the line, I received a few Java mentioned error messages. Think that I tried to download ot and run an online scan, but can't remember for sure.

  Moreover, somewhere I took advice of Prime Minister, which seems to be a malicious ad-ware and pest stealing information data. I deleted the program. It does not appear on all analysis, but there is an entry in WinPatrol in Services, where it shows up as being disabled. He also appears in the Services in Task Manager, where it shows stopped. Don't know what I can do to get rid of it completely or if it anything wrong at this point, if it is disabled.

  Dale,

  even if java uninstaller leaves behind some errant registry entries, I don't know that it's worth trying to go after them.   [For example, I found a Web page since java itself which talks about how to change the registry in case"Java icon is still visible in the Panel hasthat almost have Java is uninstalled".   [I have purposely not cited this link here, because I don't recommend editing the registry and don't want to be responsible for all the problems if they try to do.]

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  "I've learned enough here to start in Safe Mode, run MBAM, and...". »

  Note that MBAM is designed to run in NORMAL mode, in order to be able to find and conquer the malware that is resident / operation of the system RAM.   (By starting in safe mode, this malicious program does not work often and if MBAM won't find it in memory).   In fact, the only time where we should try to launch WHAT MBAM in safe mode is when he is unable to run in normal mode.   And now, with MBAM Chameleon, it is even less likely that MBAM will be prevented from running normally.

  In this sense, MBAM takes a very different from other security programs philosophy, that often MAKE application users run in safe mode.

  And as you have seen, MBAM focuses on 'rogue' malware that other products do not detect or do not remove properly.   For a person to "do-it-yourself", it should be the first scanner that you run when it encounters a thief.   [Of course, to "do it yourself", you can only exacerbate existing problems... so you must proceed with caution.]

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Somewhere along the line, I received a few Java mentioned error messages.

  Was it a message 'error', that Java was "defective"?   Or was it just a notice that you visited a java requiring site, which he could not find (active) on your system?

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Regarding the Premier's Opinion, I would be concerned that "it also appears in the Services in Manager tasks, where it shows stopped.   [I am less concerned with what appears as 'disabled' in respect of the services of WinPatrol, as sometimes, after deleting a program or a service, it may still appear as a service disabled in WinPatrol.   But in this case, WinPatrol should indicate that the (local) file is not found.]

  But as I am not familiar with this particular program, you can either wait Bugbatter you answer here, to see what she suggests... or if you're in a hurry, you can follow the instructions at http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/index.php?showtopic=79038 to sign up and post the logs requested to SpywareInfoForum.com; There are experts here AIDS that can 'walk you through' procedures to analyze your system and clean the infection.   Any help provided that it is FREE.   If you decide to go to help them, please wait for a response, and do NOT attempt to perform any other scans to remove yourself – do exactly as they ask you to do, no more, no less.

• Windows Update not working do not Error Message and Windows Defender cannot update Error Message definitions

  I have a laptop Dell 1501 with Vista Home Basic 32-bit.

  I ran CA 2010 Security Suite and you have scanned for Malware with regard to the Windows Update Error Message. He found none. I ran Microsoft Malware malicious tool, and it found. I ran Windows Defender and he found. I don't have CA and Windows Firewall to protect my computer and I have disabled both in trying to solve this problem of Windows Update and Windows Defender.

  I got this error 4 days ago. Here is what I tried:

  -I went on various Web sites, including Microsoft Support - and tried to solve the problem through services.msc and msconfig.exe. None worked.

  -J' noticed in msconfig. where it says start waiting next to Windows Update. There are 3-4 elements, which are affiliated to Windows Update and made sure they did not exist in the registry.

  -J' have to ensure that they were supposed to be automatic or manual under services.msc.

  -J' rebooted several times and nothing changes.

  Windows Defender does not update the definitions, and I do not know if this coincides with the release of Windows does not.

  I am at my wit's end and do not want to crash and burn my computer.

  I need serious help. Please, I beg you!

  Thank you.

  I had to call Microsoft. Alex tried to add registry keys and input upgrade.

  My Windows Update has almost been altered. It could be my mistake or it has become corrupted when running other services at the same time.

  I was sent a Windows 7 Home Premium Disc to upgrade and start over, as my Vista disk was corrupted as well.

  I would not recommend trying one of the suggestions listed on other sites. It's my personal opinion because I have in the past and it worsened my problem.

  I also wouldn't delete all programs (unless absolutely necessary) because I remove 4 MSMXL and he made their work more difficult.

  ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  Sometimes the only solution is to call Microsoft and they will evaluate if a charge of telephone support is necessary from the outset, before they run for your problem.

  Despite what you may have read, Microsoft Technical Support technicians are very efficient and kind.

  We inform you to open a slot during your day or even open your day for the problem to be solved.

  Mine took 2 1/2 hours, and they had to remind me the next day to make the order for the disk because it could not be done the same day.

  The more patient and kind you are, the best representative.

  Hope this helps and thanks for reading,.

• Difference between software malicious removal tool and Windows Defender

  What is the difference between the difference between software malware removal tool and Windows Defender?

  Windows Defender is a program that you install on your computer.  It runs automatically and continuously, prevention of new infections of spyware and the removal of the 'old'.

  Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool is not installed and does not work automatically.  You can run it manually to remove specific malicious software it is seeking.
