·         You did changes to the computer before the show?

Step 1: Turn the computer start-up in minimal mode, and then install the Norton removal tool and run to check if it works.

  • Warning of LOW RAM of Norton scan.

    Laptop is Presario CQ60 I use basic Vista and IE8 Norton scan says low RAM 1024 mb, while the properties of the computer say 2 GB RAM.   Should I do something?

    Go to start / computer / system properties and confirm that it says you have 2 GB of RAM installed.  If she says only 1 GB, then one of the chips is probably bad loose or defective.  First try reinstalling to see if that solves the problem.  If this isn't the case, then you will need to replace it because it is not recognized and is probably defective.

    Other that, I recommend that you replace Norton with Microsoft Security Essentials.  Remove Norton using the Norton removal tool:http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Norton-Removal-Tool.shtml.  Download MSE to:http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Microsoft-Security-Essentials-Download-131683.html and install it instead.  You will have less problems, improved performance, increased reliability, and a better overall product (and it's FREE).  It's your decision, but I've seen Norton cause a lot of problems (and different types of problems) and I saw him miss some significant malware which ended to infect the computer.  If you want to stay with Norton and system comfirms your RAM, then contact Norton technical support for help on their product which reports inaccurate information - we cannot help you fix their program.

    I hope this helps.

  • E-mail "Inbox" of old messages have all changed to text only after Norton scan?

    Hello

    Last night, I did a full scan Norton from my computer and found this morning that all messages in the 'Inbox' 'soft' at the time of the analysis seem to have been changed to text only with other codes and symbols, but without good formatting of text and graphics. With these old messages Inbox address and the subject lines are now empty, as is the "to:" and "from:" actually all of the space where they should appear now just says "subject". There is also no graphics in the actual message just the text and symbols area. This has happened only on my POP3 Inbox server. He did not go to my other email address which is an IMAP server. Nor has it affected message "Sent" boxes, or 'Archive' for the POP3 server system. However, entering a new email I just received this morning and post the scan of Norton is ok.

    Y at - it a way I can recover or reconfigure these old messages in the Inbox of what appears to be the text probably HTML with the correct subject lines and text/graphics, formatting that seems to have been lost since the Norton scan?

    Thank you very much.

    Not sure I like the idea of restoration of Norton files/emails that contain a problem even if he could get them back.

    The security industry did a good job of scaring people into compliance. It's a shame, they put a little effort in teaching.

    As the scholar on the plutonium in a box of double lead. Your "virus" was not causing issues, i.e. up to what the Greens Norton entered, open the box threw the contents on the floor and exclaimed, Oh Lord, we all die of radiation poisoning, fast, I will put the article in my forties.

    Why the e-mail Inbox not can not simply be saved as individual packets of data/information with the equivalent of metaphorical leap plastic separating one from the other?

    They can. Bug 58308 refershttps: / /bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58308

    This has had a pretty Rocky journey so far, but last I heard that developers were talking about having a helping hand on the subject this summer in the United States. (I guess that means that soon, as it is chilly here)

  • Windows email is used by another entity as a Norton scan

    Original title: windows says that it is used by someone else as scanning ~ ~ but I'm not currently using

    When I use a site to send a card etc. ~ ~ a window pops up saying that my windows email is currently used by another entity as a Norton scan but my Norton does not analyze ~ ~ ~ so that blocks the use of this option?

    Hi Thenipper,

    1. What mail client do you use?

    2. This only happens when you try to send a card or with other pieces also?

    You can temporarily disable the security software including Norton and the firewall installed on the system and check if the problem persists.

    Note: Be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • How to remove Security Shield Virus

    Hello, I run the Scanner for MS to remove this virus via the Safemode with networking, but that analysis says have deleted 3 infected files, it has not removed the virus. I have trid nearly all the solutions proposed on the MS sites and breepingcomputer, but did not work. I have Vista - can anyone suggest an alternative?

    I run the Scanner in MS for the first time and after it's over, I went back to open windows normally. The virus is still there, alive and well.

    Apart from the execution of the Security Scanner, I run RKill I explore (downloaded from breepingcomputer) before cleaning it for the second time, but the computer shuts down after a certain time (the display is set to 'Never' to turn off.) When the Scanner was executed for the second time, to the point when it was turned off, he said he found 1 infected file.

    What can I do else?

    With my thanks a lot!

    The expensive, ball and all.

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    I'm afraid to scan security of MS and Windows defenders did not remove Security Shield. Or advice offered by Microsoft have been effective.

    I moved now security shield successfully running RKill to stop the process to interfere with the process of cleaning, run Malwarebites, then, reset the proxy by running perm host.

    I also lost my faith in Windows Defender and installed the AGV.

    The other end shall ensure that all programs such as Adobe are up-to-date, as spyware tend to tag on the old programs.

    Thanks again for your advice.

  • A virus that I can't remove with Norton?

    I HAV a virus on my laptop and I can't really get rid of it with norton antivirus. don't you guys and girls think that the best thing to do is the portable reformatt juice?

    I just got my phone a week ago... and I have anythin to this topic so I guess formatting will be straightfroward.

    Hello

    It must be a very intractable virus.
    I don t use Norton Antivirus because in my opinion it s not very good program. I have read in many computer magazines that some viruses was not recognized or are not able to remove by Norton Antivirus.
    I use Karspersky antivirus program.

    In any case, I think that if you have important data on your laptop, you can use the Toshiba Recovery for the new installation cd.
    After installation, you must immediately update your antivirus program.

    PS. You can also use an adware programs. These applications are freeware and search of Trojans and other malware.

    Someone wrote that the ZoneAlarm firewall could block the wireless network adapter.
    In this case, I would recommend removing the system Zonealarm.
