Several issues having an impact on computer - security alert Windows

Help. I'm a self confessed computer illiterate! It seems that whenever the update of Windows is running on my computer, it changes the settings & I encounter problems.

I'm currently running Vista (please let me know what other details you might need) & I have Bitdefender. Windows Update ran & now I alert security windows saying there are several issues that affect my computer. I checked Bitdefender & all right with respect to any virus or malware etc. etc. When I click on icon - windows security alert - it opens the windows Security Center.

Everything changed on or Ok. Like how windows tells me that there are several issues affecting my computer but then doesn't bother to go & tell me what they really are.

Someone else has encountered this & know what it means or how I can fix this problem...

I underestand that your Windows Security Center will tell you you have any questions, but when you open it, all right. If this is the problem then, it could be due to delay the departure of the Windows Security Center to monitor your anti-virus.

I suggest defragnment and clean and updated Windows and make sure you have installed SP2, make sure that bitdefender is updated.

Also, just check and make sure you have the latest version of bitdefender, please refer to:

  • MacBook Pro lagg issues having an impact on the overall performance

    Hello

    I had problems with casual gal/minute gel on my macbook pro. The problem affects all programs and becomes especially annoying on programs such as Logic Pro X and Adobe Lightroom to photo editing and audio. For example on Logic Pro X will come back even if the error "system overload" did everything that I could to get a smoother performance on the program.

    After a few days looking for a response, I decided to do a general cleaning of my drive. I got more than 50% empty but performance improves.

    After that, I decided to do a new clean install of Mac OS x in the hope that this would solve my problems. I didn't not use time machine for backup, I just copied the files, I needed and have yet to put em turn the computer on.

    After 2 days my problem has not yet been resolved, I tried the PRAM and reset SMC, but it has no effect. Even now as I type with only safari open I short freezes every 10-20 seconds approximately 0.5 s.

    All solutions? I already ordered a new SATA cable to replace the one I think he could the cause of my problems.

    Here are my specs, ram and SSD are updated.

    MacBook Pro (13-inch, mid-2012)

    Hoping someone can help me

    If you still run with the clean install and you have the same problem. Then, you may be directed in the right direction. If you have an external drive Enclosures or cable usb to 2.5 sata adapter. You can put the internal drive in and check to see if the problem is still there. That will tell you if it is cable or not.

    Hello

    Updated for firefox 36.0 24/02/15
    Now to get a Windows security alert

    When I started the computer 25/02/15 the Windows security alert appeared.

    I have not allowed access to Windows Security Alert window.

    Why this security alert Windows has been published?

    The Windows security alert is the only issue.
    Firefox works normally. He never does not.
    I have internet access on my private network.

    I use Classic theme restaurateur.
    What's interesting after clicking on menu + customize, I moved the icon Hello in the box additional tools and features.

  • Computer has been recently hijacked with "XP security alert" want to pay me to analysis and clean. Knew it was funny. Managed to get rid of the virus (in appearance) and did a system restore. Since

    Computer was hijacked yesterday with "XP security alert" want to pay me to analysis and clean. Knew it was funny. Managed to get rid of the virus (in appearance) and did a system restore. Since then, have been opening several programs such as anti-virus, security, most of the elements in the Panel of control etc. Always can access internet, but only through IE and Mozilla not. Cannot open Outlook Express and need to connect to the sky for e-mail. Impossible to download and run programs as computer application which program I use to open or run the said downloads.  Help!

    It would seem that your registry database has been changed in order to disable the functioning of all. EXE file. You need to restore it, but cannot use regedit.exe to do. Solution: make a copy of the regedit.exe regedit.comappointed.

    Open a command prompt by typing the Windows key + R and type cmd then hit . Type in this commnd:

    copy c:\windows\regedit.exe regedit.com

    ... and click on . Next type:

    Start regedit.com

    ... and click on .

    In the RegEdit program, navigate to the registry:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command

    In the right pane, double-click the (default) value. Delete the current value data, and then type:

    "%1" %*

    (i.e.: quote-percent-one-quote-space-percent-asterisk)
     
    Close the Regedit utility. Your. EXE files must be start normally now. If the problem persists, or redone surface shortly after this procedure, your computer is still infected. In any event, the execution of full scans with MalwareBytes and your own virus anyti is recommended.

    The complete procedure (for XP) is detailed here.

  • Need to do a clean install of Vista - have several issues

    PA bear MS MVP suggested I do a clean install of Vista. I need a hand-holding.

    The first questions are about the instructions contained in this site:

    HOW to do a clean install of Vista: see the "to install Windows by performing a clean install" (or "reinstall Windows Vista") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista article

    ISSUES;

    1. the site says have my Windows installation disc (CD or DVD). I don't have the installation disc, but I made the recovery discs. Can I use them instead?

    2. it is also said to disable all antivirus software before you install Windows. I have installed Microsoft Security Essentials. How can I disable it?

    3. to the question "where do you want to install Windows?" choose which partition?

    Thank you in advance,

    YT2252

    Hello.

    1. you can use the recovery disks you did to reinstall Vista. It's what they are for.

    To reinstall Vista using recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    2 as you do a new installation the hard disk will be wiped clean of the everyting: files, MSE, everything.

    Therefore, there is not need to disable the MSE.

    3. the recovery disks must select the disc / Partition and install Vista updates.

    If not. Select the c: / partition.

    See you soon.

  • I think I got several phony calls claiming that my computer is infected with spyware.

    I think I got several phony calls claiming that my computer is infected with spyware. They said that they were connected with Windows, so I asked if they were Microsoft and they said that no Microsoft would not call me. Wouldn't be a darn good Microsoft. The guy was Indian or Pakistani and wouldn't give me a company name, no matter how many times I asked.

    They said they received reports from my computer it has been infected. The last call I let them go through their process to prove to myself that my computer has been infected. They told me to go to the event viewer, logs of windows, applications and said there will be errors and warnings there.

    It was proof that he was infected and that they wanted to give me their approval to scan my computer so their 'Microsoft engineers' can solve the problem with Windows tools. At this point, after 20 minutes, I denied their access to the computer and hung up that it had no proof that I was worried. One of our friends had the same call on fixing Windows sound, she had an Apple Mac, I would have liked to see their difficulty its version of Windows.

    I have 3 questions for this and they are: -.

    1 can. anyone if your computer is infected using the event viewer?

    2 can they tell if she is infected when the computer has a firewall and is also behind a router with a firewall?

    3. I would be right in thinking that there is another form of the scam fake phone call?

    1. If possible, get the errors or warnings in the event viewer is quite common, but say you have a virus just based on that, it's simply stupid.

    2. they do what is called call cold. They call every phone # in the phone book and say "your computer is infected" even if you do not, Yes, it's a scam and yes they are stupid.

    3. Yes. The only way they would be able to tell if your computer has a virus would be if they had access to it, and if they have BEEN with microsoft, which is not, it would be a breach of privacy.

  • is my computer secure?

    Today I just internet browsing (if this is useful in playing 1 Sonny on Kongregate) and Windows Update pops up saying he'll restart as seconds.

    I didn't have to restart at this time, so I went to click 'reporter' for 4 hours, but foolishly, I clicked on 'Restart now' accidentally.

    OK, I wasn't worried, I have to just wait for the update.

    Everything went well spent - he said "full install update part 2 of 3, 19%" for a bit, with the % filling progressively by steps. Then it disappeared, and rebooted the PC.

    No problems yet - but once it's always spent the loading screen where "microsoft corporation", or something is displayed near the bottom, he began to scribble through a list of the locations of files (that I remember before), and everywhere that I saw LISTED in THE REGISTER.

    Now, I had read somewhere before that a sign to have a virus on your system is if you notice the registry being accessed at startup. Then I panicked, and as I didn't want my register being accessed, I pressed the power button to put the PC.

    I know if possible, you should avoid doing this, but I wasn't about to let my registry be messed with and wait for all my files etc had been loaded normally.

    Anyway. The next thing I do is leave TI a minute I feel a little sick of the idea of a Virus on my system again (yes I had a before centuries ago). So, I just go upstairs and turn on the PC to see if things have changed. I was about to start in safe mode, I could not remember which key F, but then after a screen or two (as usual) the PC flashes something on the recovery of the system.

    I know more exactly the screens, as I was not familiar with them, but he asked to check for errors with the system, because the last boot failed. OK, I let check (hoping it was a real thing). He said he found errors, but later asked if I wanted to restore the system to an earlier configuration (last successful startup.)

    I selected Yes, it would take me hoping to return before the error. It took a little time to "restore system" or whatever, but he then finished doing what he was doing and gave me to select "Finish." Before I did it, I clicked on "View report" or something similar and he showed a long list of tests.

    I wasn't sure what they have all along, but they all show 0 x 0 under the bit errors.

    Since then, I have restored the system, and he presented me with health research. Since then, I've noticed nothing extraordinary, and the thing to auto-update not shown yet.

    So, I'm sure? Or what has happened to what is most important? Why didn't we text of registry at startup? Thank you.
