• boot sector virus

  I had a bug in my boot sector, it restarts my system whenever the Windows startup screen appears. I tried a repair install, but no luck... Does anyone know a way for me to reach my office without a complete install? I don't want to lose all my data. I'm not BACK, but I can get a command prompt with the system recovery tool.

  If anyone knows any tips, let me know.

  Thx again for the advise... Oh, and can you recommend a protection software to prevent that is happning again? So many anti-malware there programs, & most are useless (if it's not dangerous). I worked with Spybot & AdAware for analysis & Adwatch as a background monitor, but they is not so great. I have Kaspersky, strictly for antivirus, but they always want more money for upgrades of definition... Just Lookin ' for ideas, I don't want to start this mess.

  Forums freakin ' rock.

  I'm glad that you were able to make progress and improvements. Some malware, including viruses, can be very stubborn to remove. Given the extent of malware detected on your computer, that I'd like to see a Hijack This log file. Unfortunately, these files of type logs are not allowed on this forum. However, you can create an account on the free forum on the link below and post the log file in the Virus/Malware forum and I'll have a peek. The forum is free.

  Spybot has been a pretty good scan. I've personally never had much faith in Ad-Aware. Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware set standards these days at the malware scanners. Fortunately, in these times of economic stress, each have free versions.

  Kapersky is certainly a good anti-virus software, but, as you noted, taxes can start to add up. I chose the free version of Avast 5.0. Actually, I would almost bet that if you have installed Avast and completed a scan at startup you would find additional malware. Be aware that you can not have Avast and installed simultaneously Kapersky. This applies even if it is temporary.

  No matter what anit-virus software you choose. None have a 100% detection rate. Therefore, stay free malware requires a multi-layered approach. This means a good antivirus, a couple good malware scanner, a secure browser with the appropriate like AdBlock Plus, Better Privacy, ad - ons advise site MyWOT and, perhaps the most important ingredient, sound the user discretion. More about browsers and ad - ons available can be found on the link below.

• Cannot use Windows Update, firewall, Live games. Suspects of virus?

  Hello

  I am currently using an Alienware M17x and there are a few problems.

  Recently, I downloaded a game requiring a signature in Windows Live games and order I had to update the client. However, Games for Windows Live could not update and gave me an error code of 0 x 80070424. I also got this same error code when I tried to turn on the firewall in pressinng the button "Use recommended settings" in the control panel > system and security > Windows Firewall page.

  I then tried to manually install the Games for Windows Live client, but he couldn't do it because 'a required Windows component is disabled on your machine. I checked the fix for this problem in the Microsoft Web site, and he asked me to locate the "Background Intelligence Transfer Service' in my services, which has proven to be missing. Also, the automatic update service disappeared.

  Another problem that I recently noticed was that audio files randomly the movies will begin playing while my computer is running. I first thought that it was a website or popup while I was surfing the net, but I closed all the programs I was running, and the noise continued to play. Goose bumps...

  I did some reading, and the closest thing I can relate to this is the Conficker Virus, but I hope that it is something more easy to remove...

  Any help is greatly appreciated, because this virus seems to be the stubborn type!

  You may need to restore the factory settings, so be sure to back up any data you want to save while you still can.  In the meantime, here are some things you can try.

  Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  -

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  -

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  `

  When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• How can I delete an email from apple mail after removing the content (by virus scan software?)

  Recently, I received an avalanche of emails with malicious attachments.  I have not opened any of the accessories, and my antivirus software has picked up malicious content and removed from the email.  Thus, I find myself with an email on my system, no content.  Unfortunately, the system does not allow me to then remove the (s) e-mail that is left.  How can I remove these 'empty' emails in my Inbox mailbox?

  Allowing something to edit the database of e-mail will result by it becomes corrupted.

  If you use Time Machine, restore the email by "entering Time Machine" of in Mail and choose a time to restore. Then, just delete suspicious e-mails in the usual way. Exit full screen before entering Time Machine.

• How can I check my Mac mini for spyware and other viruses

  How can I check my Mac mini for software spyware and other forms of virus? Recently, I received an electronic invoice which seems to come from Apple on a purchase that I did not. Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  My Mac was purchased in 2011 and runs on OS X El Capitan (version 10.11.6).

  Kind regards

  Receive a fraudulent e-mail for a purchase confirmation, you did not is a very common scam. Remember that you are not misled by providing personal information solicited by this e-mail.

  Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  No harm will come of the fact that you wrote. Fraudulent Web sites that are made to appear as legitimate those who are specially designed to convince you to reveal personal information. If you don't have that, no further action is necessary or justified. Do not install anything, no matter the source or the apparent popularity, in response to one such scam. To do this would be the first step in a path well worn to the misery.

  On the other hand, if you were tricked into providing personal information (like your Apple ID and password) you will need to change your password on Apple ID. Please write back for instructions.

• Problem with a Virus of Image to disc or something

  Hi all!

  My name is Cecilia, Im from Argentina. First of all, sorry, because my English is too bad, but I really need help. I searched around on Google, in fact and I can´t to find a solution to my problem.

  Recently, I have this kind of virus, malware or other, who is eating my RAM. As soon as I turn on my imac, this active thing by itself, in the form of a 'install', I can see it clearly in the activity monitor. 3 installers, which are essentially the disk images that I also see in disk utility, with names like 'adKrNd.dmg' ghost and other similar things (they still have a different name everytime I turn on the computer). When I want to move to the trash the .dmg, it won´t let me, saying that another application is using these files. I n ' t´know what to do, I downloaded an Anti Virus but it didn t work.

  Could you recommend me a good Anti-Malware for free? Maybe someone knows how to stop this?

  Thank you!!

  Manuela,

  Please NEVER install any antivirus, cleaning or another third-party utility maintenance on OS X. OS X is extremely safe and simply updated day will last probably years. In most situations, using antivirus, compensation or other similar applications will create more problems than they ever solve.

  However you have downloaded something like advertising software that can create a problem. My suggestion is to run a report of EtreCheckof your system. We then look for obvious problems. Please click on the link, download the application and run the report. Once you have the report, please copy and paste into your response to this post.

  If you would like more information on what is EtreCheck, just click on the link and you will find a description of the application.

  BTW, my wife and I spent 3 weeks in Argentina in early 2015. What a beautiful country you have!

• How do I know if I have viruses / whatever

  It seems that 'my computer' is send emails since, apparently, sent my items... to those who who do not have them.   How to stop this... or if I have a virus / whatever?  Also send emails to myself with nothing else than a "zip" attached file?

  There is no virus affecting the os x in the wild. And it is unlikely that you have been hacked - it's much more likely that someone has taken over your email address and send spam using as the address "from"; It is a very common practice. It's how you receipt of the e-mails apparently yourself - spam with Zip files is still prevalent, but usually he pretends to be an invoice or other document. In fact, it is malware, but probably only affecting Windows - do not open it, of course.

  It's infuriating when someone uses your address in this way, but there is not really anything you can do about it. Usually it stops after some spammers moving on to address some other victim.
