Stop Internet connection malware and Anti-Malware software

Hello! I have a 2015 MacBook Pro that I use to the work of the College, as you can imagine, I have a lot of important information about this. That being said, I probably should be more careful by browsing the internet, but I have unfortunately seem to have fallen for a 'Java update' Malware thing and have successfully infected my laptop by malicious software.

After reading a few recommendations online, I downloaded MalwareBytes Anti-Malware free and he ran. It is is immediately detected the dangerous Malware and gave me the ability to clean my computer from harmful programs. After he cleaned my computer, it restarted and opened upward.

Not only does the Malware not go far, but it got worse: as soon as the screen is turned on, a bunch of windows appeared, with statements such as: "accountsd wants to use the"login"keychain." & "com.apple.iCloud.Helper.xpc wants to use the"login"keychain". These windows do not disappear when you press Cancel, and I'm afraid to put a password in while my laptop is still affected by the Malware.

Second, none of my browsers will connect to internet. Google Chrome is no longer loads all pages and now often needs to be force-leave out. Finally, MalwareBytes Anti-Malware won't open and it immediately passes "Application not responding" when opening.

Can someone please help me with a solution to this problem? It would be greatly appreciated.

If you have voluntarily or involuntarily exposed your computer to potentially dangerous software, you should consider a backup of your system and a reinstallation of the operating system as no single or multiple scan of your computer can completely provide an accurate assessment of what has been allowed to infiltrate your computer.

    original title: Internet connectivity problem

    After that my computer remained at about 48 to 72 hours, he lost all internet connectivity, IE and Outlook, as well as other programs. Before that, it works fine. If I reboot, it goes back to works very well for this period of time. I noticed I can shorten or lengthen the time that remains active of programs I run the application, primarily GOAL and iTunes. If I do not use one of the people, he can stay for about 4 days, if I use both what it comes down to 2 days.

    About 2-3 months ago, my computer started to do this. I've been troubleshooting on and outside since then, but as it was not any extreem yet I was not too concerned. However, recently the problem has progressed. It started with she it around every 7 days, so I could live with it. However, I do not restart my computer every day, so I'm hoping to solve this problem.

    Hello

    1. find the error codes?
    2. did you of recent changes on your system prior to this problem?

    Method 1:
    I suggest to temporarily disable the Antivirus software and checking if that helps.

    Disable the anti-virus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2:
    If the problem is not resolved I suggest to start the computer in Mode safe mode with network and check if the problem occurs. If the problem does not occur in Mode safe mode with networking and then you try to perform the clean boot to find what startup item or service is causing the problem.

    Step 1: To restart in Mode safe mode with networking enabled:

    (a) reboot your computer.
    (b) when you see the logo of the manufacturer of the computer, press on and press and hold F8.
    (c) on the screen Advanced Startup Options, use the arrow keys to Select Safe Mode with networkand press enter.
    account d) log your computer with a user who has of administrator rights.

    Reference: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    If you are able to start the computer in Mode safe mode with networking, and then you try to perform the clean boot.

    Step 2: Perform the clean boot.

    By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    I am trying to download some PDF forms from a Web site, and whenever I click on the appropriate button to open the form page, the current page

    I have this experience also with trying to access government sites as well, but only occasionally, not all the time.

    Hello
    Please follow the instructions below:

    When you install Acrobat or Adobe Reader on a system that includes a browser, you automatically configure the browser to open PDF files in the browser window. Acrobat and Adobe Reader install the ActiveX plugin files allow you to use Internet Explorer or AOL to open PDF files. If an application is installed, but do not open the PDF files in the browser window, then work through the following steps to configure the browser:

    Acrobat may not work correctly if the system does not meet the following requirements:

    • Intel Pentium III processor or equivalent
    • Microsoft Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4, Windows XP Professional, home edition or Edition Tablet PC with Service Pack 2
    • Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
    • 256 MB RAM (512 MB recommended)
    • 860 MB of available disk space; cache for optional installation files (recommended) requires 460 MB of additional free disk space.
    • screen resolution 1 024 x 768

    To open PDF files in a browser window, the ActiveX folder should contain the following files: AcroPDF.dll, AcroIEHelper.dll and pdfshell.dll.

    ActiveX controls must be in: program files Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX

    If one of these files is missing, then repair Acrobat or Adobe Reader by choosing Help > repair Acrobat Installation or reinstall the application.

    Make sure that you use a version of your web browser, Acrobat and Adobe Reader supports, such as Internet Explorer 6. Supported for Adobe Acrobat 8, Adobe Reader 8 browsers are Internet Explorer 6.0, 6.0 SP1, Internet Explorer 7.0, Firefox 1.5 or later, Mozilla 1.7 and AOL 9.

    To make sure that the Windows registry provides the information that your web browser should display PDF files, restart Windows. If the Windows registry is not updated after the installation of Acrobat, then the web browser can not find the references it needs to access the PDF files on the web.

    If you have an older version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader is installed on the system, and then use the Add / Remove programs in Windows to remove it.

    If you use Acrobat, and then repair or replace the damaged or missing files by using the repair feature the Installation of Acrobat or the dialog box add or remove programs.

    To repair Acrobat:

    1. Choose Start > Control Panel.
    2. Double-click Add or remove programs.
    3. Select Acrobat and then click on edit.
    4. Follow the on-screen instructions to repair the Acrobat.

    7 reinstall Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

    To ensure that the correct information of the plug-in is added to the Windows registry, reinstall Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

    If you want the browser to open PDFs in a separate Acrobat window, then configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application. Then, when you select a PDF file in Internet Explorer or AOL, the browser opens the PDF file in an Acrobat window instead of the browser window.

    To configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open PDF files:

    1. Close your web browser.
    2. Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    3. Choose Edition > Preferences.
    4. Select Internet from the list on the left.
    5. Deselect Display PDF in browser, and then click OK.
    6. Restart Internet Explorer or AOL.

    Note: The next time you select a link to a file PDF, the browser may ask you to open or save the file. If you choose to open the file, then the browser opens the file in the support application that you specified. If you choose to save the file, the browser downloads the file to the hard drive.

  • Bluetooth network and Internet connection sharing problem

    I am putting in place a network via Bluetooth between two computers later with Toshiba Stack installed and to share the Internet connection with the second computer.

    On the computer of trees I put Internet connection sharing, and for this reason, it automatically assigns addresses TCP/IP for the Bluetooth Personal Area network (192.168.0.1).
    On computer 2, I put everything to get it automatically. Firewall (Kaspersky) disabled.

    When I connect 2 Bluetooth devices, everything looks fine, the 2nd automatically gets the IP address, I can ping both computers and Internet works also on the 2nd computer, for a few seconds! After that, it appears as the 2nd computer is disconnected from the network... what could be the problem?

    In the case of the observer under the System tab, I found information like these:
    2nd comp:
    The system has detected that the network \DEVICE\TCPIP_{E44D18EB-91F5-4 adapter has been connected to the network and launched a normal operation via the network card.

    The browser has forced an election on network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E44D18EB-... because a master browser was stopped.

    and the 1st model also appears this:
    The system has detected that the network Bluetooth adapter... Area Network - Packet Scheduler Miniport has been disconnected from the network, and the network adapter configuration has been released. If the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.

    In your case, I would look at the following Web site:
    http://APS.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/redirect.php?page=pages/HOWTO.html
    It lists the following document:
    "Internet on PDA via PAN using Notepad as a gateway."
    In your case, the PDA is another laptop, but the procedure should be very similar.
    I would check the firewall settings later if it still does not work.

  • Some applications stopped the connection to the network, while the rest of them still not connect...

    A month ago, I realized that Hulu Desktop not working not. Gives me a generic error message. but nothing else. I thought that it was related with Hulu Desktop, then, naturally I looked for support on their site.

    During this time, I realized application Pandora AIR One did not work either. I thought that this might be related with Adobe Flash player or Adobe AIR. My first goal turned in this sense.

    Then I finally realized than iTunes, and also stopped the Cisco VPN client connection to the network.

    I use these applications on a daily basis, make none of the apps took about two weeks. Try to find a common solution in question, and possibly on another two weeks...

    Moreover, the rest of the applications work fine, no glicth: these are some of the applications, I use every day without any problem:

    • Internet Explorer
    • Chrome
    • Firefox
    • Opera
    • Safari
    • FileZilla FTP

    First of all the error messages I get:

    Click 'connect' to try again.

    iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store.
    Make sure your network connection is active and try again.

    This is the only application error messages. Windows is not trow an error.
    Here are a few things I tried, with the hope of resolving this problem of connection of mystery:
    (not in this specific Ref. necessarily)
    • Wireless connection with wired connection of switch to a router
    • Connect my laptop directly to the cable modem
    • Turning off Windows Firewall (firewall)
    • Reset the Windows Firewall to the default settings
    • Deactivation of Microsoft Security Essentials (anti-virus)
    • Open the computer in Mode safe mode with networking
    • Uninstall and reinstall these applications and the related necessary subsets such as Flash Player, AIR, etc.
    A friend suggested the creation of a local account on Windows. So I tried that too. I created two accounts; an admin and a guest. Not surprisingly (!) these requests, I'm having problems for almost a month or two, worked. No error message, just worked.
    Here's the thing: I still don't know what's causing this problem on my main account from the system.
    I can move all my settings and configurations of the new account system. But what happens if these problems occur again. It's already a big hassle, autour file transfer and the account settings.
    Has anyone out there have similar problems and/or has the answer, please help me. It's so frustrating. I appreciate any leads or you can provide solutions.

  • HP Pavilion 15 t issues with Internet connectivity can be used under Windows 8

    So I just got my new HP Pavilion 15 t-e000 CTO Notebook PC last week, it runs Windows 8 & amp; It is a 64-bit.

    The only problem I've had is to stay connected to my wireless Internet. The connection stops at random intervals saying 'Limited' instead of 'connected '. I have to constantly disconnect and connect to my WiFi. It's particularly frustrating when I am trying to download something that lasts longer than a few minutes because the Internet connection cuts, and I have to start the process.

    I tried pretty much every "difficulty" people have posted that worked for some people. No luck for me. Sometimes it seems that he will stay connected and then I try to connect to a web page or download something and it turns off again.

    -Turn off the "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power" under power management in the properties of my wireless connection section... DID NOT WORK

    -By using the command prompt to reset the network card... DID NOT WORK

    -Running the network and Internet, and convenience stores something... Didn't WORK * update: if I run the connection test network via the HP help/support on my desk Center, while the connection says Limited, I get the notice that the 'default gateway was not available"and the router has been handed over to zero and issue fixed, etc. BUT if I run the test, while the connected said wireless, the test still says there is no problem. And although the test 'fixed' the issue, it does not because the Internet always cut again.

    -Updates Windows has installed new updates several times... DID NOT WORK

    -Forget the wireless network and set up as a new... DID NOT WORK

    -With the help of my computer right next to my wireless router... DID NOT WORK

    Used wireless router is: Cisco Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 GHz router to wide band as well as our network is WPA with a security code. We also have an Internet DSL SpeedStream thing (sorry, I don't know what it's called). The Compatibility Center said that this router is compatible with Windows 8. Other computers running Windows 7 and Windows Vista, iPhones, iPads and all work fine.

    My laptop uses Intel Centrino Wireless - N 2230 and the light is on and it still says ' device working properly "in the properties.

    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated because I am at my wits end.

    Thank you

    Therefore, it seems that my problem with the limited Internet connection has been resolved. I didn't use my computer for two days and this afternoon, when I turned it on I was still having problems. However, I went to the HP Support Assistant, and it appeared that I had a few updates to download and install, so I let him do his thing. It took awhile because the Internet kept cutting out, but once the update for the wireless Intel have finally set, my connection is REMAINING CONNECTED. Finally!

    I don't know why when I went into the properties wireless it says "device working properly ' and when I tried to update the driver it says"your driver is the latest version"or something else.

    I suggest you just go to the HP Support Assistant and updates in the section "Updates and the updates of". It was a bit random, but touch wood my looks of problem connecting wireless to be gone.

    Hope this helps

  • Windows 7 - NO INTERNET CONNECTION - connectivity continues to lose!

    WIndows 7 says that it allows internet connectivity easier and better.  So why it keep the loss of internet connectivity and need me to restart my router and the computer to get it back.

    At worst, this happens a few times per hour, at least once per night.

    As a result of some other positions, I created an IP (rather than letting the automatic form).  I disabled the server Hello DNS in the Services, but still the warning triangle appears and identifies my network but said 'no internet '.

    The router has been replaced by my service provider and the problem still persists.

    I can access the internet via my router with other devices when my PC at home with wired connection says no internet connection, which proves that the router is ok.

    Troubleshooter also can't find anything wrong.

    Nobody knows how to solve this problem, because Microsoft will help only if I pay a lot of money and DEll (who sold me the computer) do not care even if the computer is only 4 months old!
