  For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
  to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (are not
  run several) of the following three:
   
  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials
   
  You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
  install MalwareBytes AntiMalware (freeware).

• Is Cyber Security Antivirus one of your programs to sell?

  This program lists the things that I need to remove and gives me a blue screen and force a new startup of the computer. How can I remove this program, it won't let me remove? I don't know how to go in the registry. old man of 85 needs help. I can buy the program if I know it's a Microsoft program.

  This is not a Microsoft program. It is a rogue security program that claims to find files infected your computer and trying to trick you into paying for the program.  Don't do it! Click on the Red 'X' in the top of the window title bar to close the window, or press Alt + F4 on the keyboard.

  If you want to try to remove it yourself, first run a full scan with your antivirus program.  Next, download and run these programs:

  Microsoft Windows malicious software removal tool
     Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

  For more detailed help, go to the removal of malware to Aumha forum or see the cyber security to remove (uninstall Guide) at BleepingComputer.com .

  If you don't feel able to remove yourself, I recommend to get help from a reputable independent consultant.

• Software Security Antivirus from Norton malfunction - any ideas on a Solution?

  I had problems with my security software, Norton Antivirus, during 2 months.  The members of the forum discussion Norton are reports that my case is isolated and to check with Dell for assistance.

  I posted a topic of discussion on the Symantec Web site detailing the specific problem that I am experiencing...

  http://community.Norton.com/T5/Norton-Internet-security-Norton/2-large-back-to-back-virus-definition-x64-updates-this-morning/TD-p/1046739

  Here's how my Avtivirus Norton (NAV) has been hurt since early November:

  Norton (NAV) Avtivirus auto Live Update fails on a regular basis in order to properly install the incremental updates of definition of Virus X 64 (usually less than 1 MB in size), as a result of the awakening of the PC of periods of hibernation / sleep and when you start the PC from a complete stop.

  I'm going to run, then Manual Live Update immediately after the updates of definitions of Virus X 64 failed, and manual Live Update downloads / installs a complete definition of Virus X 64 file of 160 MB!

  NAV must sometimes update the very large Virus X 64 full definition file, maybe once every month or 2, but not 2 times / day for me sometimes and 20 + times / month for me since November.

  Members of the Symantec forum suggested I check with Dell for the latest drivers, which I noticed that Dell has new BIOS (15/10/2013 Release Date), which I have not yet installed.

  My Norton Antivirus Version 21.1.0.18 (which is the latest version, comes out in October) should work using the original BIOS, shouldn't it?

  Other than this problem for 2 months with my NAV, the Dell Inspiron 17R 2013 5720 bought in January has worked with no other issues to talk about.

  What is confusing to me is how/why my NAV worked perfectly, from January to November with the original BIOS, and now it is defective, bad.

  So, my question is, will update my PC with the latest BIOS (15/10/2013 Release Date), treat this dysfunction of current Norton Antivirus? Or is there an other driver update that could solve this problem?

  Any help is very appreciated.

  2013 Dell Inspiron 17R 5720 Windows 7 64-bit SP1

  Norton Antivirus Version 21.1.0.18

  Hi followed,

  It is not uncommon for an anti-virus update several times a day. As long as you meet any other internet connection problems, outside Live updates from Symantec, I can't how your problem can be attributed to drivers of Dell. As ky331 says:

  ky331

  This should have nothing to do with the BIOS.   I would not be updated the BIOS unless you are having a problem specifically identified as being fixed by this particular BIOS update.

  If I were you, I would like to uninstall Live Update, followed by uninstalling Norton and run the removal tool according to the instructions. After the reboot, I would like to install Microsoft Security Essentials. I used it for several years on several computers running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit... If you have not installed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware , it would be good to add. The Pro version along well MSE and the option to automatically resize the image and real time updated. If you prefer the free version, which can be manually updated and run manually.

  Good luck. Let us know if you have any additional questions.

• Firefox 7.0.1 installed yesterday. McAfee Security is active and up to date, but your check plugins does not recognize the components. No explanation on how to fix this problem. What should do?

  In tools | Addons | Extensions, McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 14.4.1 and McAfee Site Advisor 3.4.0 are apparently active, like the button disable is present.

  In tools | Addons | Plugins, McAfee SecurityCenter 11.0.575.0, McAfee SiteAdvisor 3.4.0.135 and McAfee Virtual Technician 6.0.1501.0 even are apparently activated, because the button disable is present.

  But when I click on "Check to see if your plugins are up to date", these last three McAfee components are 'plug-ins unknown '. The search button gives just links without end that I don't know what to do.

  Silverlight 4.0.60831.0 (that I don't use, not even sure that it is / is), Adobe Acrobat 10.1.1.33, Shockwave for Director 11.6.1.629 (don't know what it is, either), Shockwave Flash 11.0.1.152 and QuickTime plugin 7.7.1.0 are all reported that up to date. I can't believe anything else is NOT up-to-date, as everything seems to be updated automatically. I know that RealPlayer or RealSomething just updated during all these misfortunes of installation.

  Why Firefox doesn't recognize some components of McAfee in a single window and not in another? Why not recognize it all? My McAfee security (paid for and satisfying) is somehow disabled by Firefox? I am at risk when you use your browser?

  The plugin check page acknowledges that some common plugins play the media on web pages and not of plugins added by as McAfee security software. So no need to worry about this. Just make sure you keep all your software up to date, especially software that deals with the access software and internet security (antivirus, firewall).

  Antivirus depends on your habits.

  If you load a lot of applications of the internet, then Yes. If you just use common applications and simply use the device as a browser and multimedia peripheral player, then my opinion is not. Do not slow down the machine with something done AV audits.

• Security hole warning won't go away

  Update on shutdown hit last night

  This morning security hole scan shows

  used my normal software (CSA/IOrbit) to clean, but did not work - shows always the security hole.

  Posted the ASC > IOrbit forum and was told to do the following:

  This update to the Microsoft security patch is released to the public yesterday to protect Windows users from hackers attack and encoding remotely PC using the icon loading vulnerability shortcuts.

  I advise you to use the automatic Windows Update or the manual update, that same Windows 7 OSs must restart during installation.

  Most likely your update could not be completed as it should, and that's why security hole IS360 warns.

  It is a critical vulnerability, and I believe that after the installation correctly, IS360 not will warn you that more.

  I tried suggestions - here's what happened:

  (1) manual - he said that it does not apply to your computer.

  Automatic updated 2), this is the answer I get: the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. The options provided below may help you solve the problem.

  Can someone tell me the problem. I was at this for hours. Thank you

  Only one 1 antivirus should be installed & loading at startup. You had two installed for almost a year (i.e., IOBit & MSE and before that, IOBit and OneCare, judging by your last response).

  But it's not really important because you did not have any antivirus application installed by your own admission, at least 4 months: your computer is infected and has been for some time. See...

  Also my windows update still does not go to download security updates, and it still gives me the same error code.

  Is there a way to fix this?

  Thank you very much

  Also, the first update failed installed has been updated for Windows Vista (KB955430)

• System Restore and security updates

  A did the system restore for a March 22, 2010, as Windows Explorer had become deadly slow and I was unable to determine why. Seems fine now.

  My question is:

  Do I need to download and install new updates of security for Windows XP (professional sp3) published since the date of the system restore?

  Since the restoration Sys, add/remove programs list not the updates made since February 10 except for fix - update of safety and KB979306 - KB975561) while Microsoft Windows Update Online Service lists 20 people or more who have been previously downloaded.

  I'd appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this for me.

  Thank you.

  Yes, automatic updates is enabled. When I ran a manual check for updates through the http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com earlier today, some optional updates and as a bet to critical update - security update Cumulative for IE8 for WinXP (KB980182) - was listed so I downloaded and installed without problem. And you see it in the Add/Remove Programs list.

  My security services (Radialpoint) software is complete and up-to-date. I agree by my ISP. No other security/antivirus application is on my system.

  .... After looking closer - research on the site of microsoft for some of these updates and looking at the list of updates for my computer from there, it seems actually I could have all the critical updates.  And this long list updates at the end of March, were updates of the previous month.  I guess it is related to the 'unknown' question that I start around March 26 or more.  A question that I don't know led my Permissions being stripped - a lot of access denied.  Maybe that's why.

  If all goes well, everything is ok now and "fingers crossed" that won't happen again. I'll monitor the automatic updates and do a manual check from time to time to ensure that everything works as it should.  Receive your answer.

  See you soon.
