  • Cannot get rid of Symantec Anti-virus. - a windows installer window keeps popping up referring to Symantec after uninstalling symantec.

    I have problems wiping out anti-virus from Symantec. I deleted everything that I could find has nothing to do with it, so I thought, but a windows window installation keeps popping up referring to Symantec, prompts me to insert my disc (which I don't have) and then displays an error. It does this randomly. I installed something else and he said everything is ok. Is my problem in the temporary files or I'm not pushing the right buttons?

    You're more likely to get the best advice if you include:

    • the exact application you are trying to uninstall, including version
    • the version of Windows you have, including the service pack
    • the full text of the error messages you see, without paraphrasing
    • what you have done so far, in addition to details "I deleted everything I could find.

    You need to scan with a program SPECIALLY designed to detect and remove rootkits (aswMBR):

    Download this file to your desktop. Double-click the icon to run the program. When the opportunity to download and install the latest Avast definitions do.
    Run a scan. Results in red indicate that this was not a false positive! Do you need to remove the rootkit (including "FixMBR" if necessary).

  • Need help to diagnose the regular system analysis on iMac - processors maxed out

    I need help to identify the cause of a problem that occurs at least 2 - 3 times per day using my iMac (27-inch, mid 2010) running 10.11.5.

    I will use my iMac and then all at once things will start to really trolling. To the point of being completely unusable. Even if I'm able to move my cursor, then click to drag the windows around the screen nothing does really.

    I have iStat menus running so that can see graphics in my menu bar that all 4 cores are completely overfished. Occasionally, I was fast enough to launch the activity monitor to try to see what applications / services are responsible for, the use of % CPU column is completely empty of values, so I can't identify the culprits in a reliable way. I try to keep that column sorted by % CPU use in the hope that he could reveal something and normally it's the kernel_task who is up there.

    I use a Wacom Bamboo dated Tablet (MTE - 450 has) instead of a mouse, and at one point, I was convinced the pilot of PenTabletDrive it is based on was to blame. I contacted Wacom on this subject, and although there is no known issues they pointed out that although the latest drivers will allow me to use the tablet that they no longer support older devices. I was wondering if there was a problem of communication between the device and a driver that is no longer supported. I installed the latest driver supported for my tablet, but the problems persist.

    It may be interesting to note that, when my computer is in this semi-frozen state, I am able to launch the window enough force and quit all open applications leaving me with only the Finder. I guess that means that there are none of my apps running and it is probably one of the services. If I restart the Finder system grinds to a completely enclosed holt.

    I hope someone can let me know what I can find in the Console or elsewhere to help me finally zero in on what is to blame. I can share a log if that helps.

    Thank you in advance!

  • Unable to display all unread messages in Outlook Express after running "compating" and also update Symantec AV.

    Original title: how to repair Outlook Express.

    Until recently, when I open Oulook Express, I'd get a screen telling me how many emails that are UNREAD.  I would then click the UNREAD and I'd get a panel showing all the emails in the order in which they came from my ISP.  Now, however, when I open OUTLOOK EXPRESS, I get immediately the last email rec'vd and the only way I can see others, is to remove the one that is open.  I am running XP-Professional and anti-virus from Symantec.  This change seemed to arise as a result of a routine compaction and update my Symantec anti-virus.  I tried to 'uninstall' OUTLOOK EXPRESS by unchecking in 'Add/Remove Windows components' and then 'install' again by checking the box, but he always reacts the same way.  Is it possible that OUTLOOK EXPRESS has somehow been corrupted?  For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    OE uncheck in Add/Remove removes only the access and nothing else. Compaction is a necessary process and unless you have actually lost messages, I doubt it was that. It is more likely Symantec which is least friendly OE AV program there. All that said, follow these steps.
     
    1: view | Current view. Make sure Show all Messages is the only option that is checked.
     
    2: Try in a new identity. You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identities | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.
     
    Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

  • Windows 7 disk 100% for new files created recently

    Problem: I noticed that when new files are created on the computer the 'System' process reacts, usually a day later (date of arrival) by analyzing these files consume 100% of the disk IO and slow down the whole computer.  I develop software applications of scale with my computer so builds and release new records will create a large number of files.  The high disk activity can sometimes take 2 hours before it slows down.

    Things, I already checked: I have already concluded that this isn't the search indexer.  This isn't the Symantec anti-virus software, I installed.

    Trigger - seems to be new files created previous day analysis

  • Many addons crashes and high utilization of the processor/RAM (/ questions/976131)

    I have a question which has been which is rampant in me up to now for a month in Firefox; Once Firefox has been used for quite some time (open for several days with hundreds of pages throughout these days are opened and closed) it never frees the RAM he used, I've seen it go from being initially about 400 MB initially in the first 30 minutes of opening and then, after an hour, it goes to about 600 to 900 MB , the number is somewhat normal for me, I guess that (in the days of use of Firefox 4 id get that using a lot on my old netbook) and then he goes to the point of madness at random and uses a set of 2 GB and once the fact that its almost unusably slow and sometimes must be killed with the system task manager.

    This is not normal. Especially because it happens when I have nothing but the home page of Firefox open and everything remains closed. Its as if all of the content of the pages ive visited gets hoarded by Firefox to over the years and it never came out, its almost as if Firefox is like how Windows 98 was if you kept running for days without arresting him.

    Ive had virtually quite an effort to remedy this situation suggested by the kind of useful people in the linked thread.

    • Ive disabled all addons that I don't need
    • Ive got rid of addons I need not
    • Ive started a new Firefox profile and use nothing else than the addons that I need for my navigation from day to day (so nothing else beyond what I need is active or in Firefox in the first place)
    • Ive updated flash player and most other firefox plugins lists
    • Ive updated all the drivers for my computer and Windows Update updates
    • Ive deleted the cache and cookies and persistent data several times to try and empty used Firefox RAM
    • Ive used about: memory option "reduce the memory usage" to clear the RAM of Firefox but it did nothing, if anything sometimes he did go up a few megabytes or two
    • As suggested, I disabled 3 addons 'jetpack' I needed because they were supposed to be the cause of this
    • Ive enabled addons one by one to see which is the problem, whenever I did that when I found the culprit and disabled the addon that I thought was the fault of the problem does not return that in a matter of time taking all this effort go down the drain
    • Doing a crapton of virus analyses
    • Ive read most of the articles of Firefox Help on fixing it, ive done all
    • A portable installation of Firefox runs just perfect, and even a new fresh profile without a single addon is perfect, its when I need addons, problems arise.
    • I ran show memtest, memtest86 and even the memtest that comes with Windows, that nothing is wrong with my machine

    Since I created a new profile my previous problem in the context menu of Firefox as slow as molasses is gone, but the rest focuses on yet (although less I admit).

    IM left so far with two apparently related in forefox problems, in short: use the Firefox RAM random remains very high even if there is nothing else that a tab open, heck he couldn't be that the homepage of Firefox open and itd still make even if I leave it like that for hours without touching it. Here is an example of earlier today https://app.box.com/s/sc7xpmsjnmf18q3rx12t

    And this is after I've used about: memory reduce memory usage command https://app.box.com/s/whbay8b4l2z89grdphzd

    And if Firefox is no not that I get from time to time the other problem with the CPU usage with a tip that freezes Firefox for a while, when it does the Task Manager window lists Firefox to use about 10% CPU usage, which is a lot considering the use of Firefox I've ever seen by more than 5% at worst before. It sometimes even simply stays like this during his inactivity by using this number of CPU. I don't have a screenshot right now Firefox home since its not to do, but here's a screenshot of another process, do http://vvcap.net/db/aSXmdVEsoZ-9tQj4TnH6.htp

    At this point, I don't know what to do anymore to be honest, I love Firefox and its addons, its what makes it unique, without them I can not navigate, I might as well use IE (ew). Part of the reason why I got a beefy computer was so that I could use Firefox instead of the opera without having to worry about its use of infamous memory (at the time I remember it being a memory hog it was at the time of Firefox 4-14, after I used Firefox 21 things improved considerably since) Ive come down to using anything else than what I need ONLY for daily browsing in the new profile and kept all other addons of Firefox usage only use inside a virtual machine (VMWare to be preice). But the problem still persists. I'm sorry it's long, but I want to just be detailed as possible so that this problem can be solved

    Finally, my profile; as I have no idea if the troubleshooting attached or not contains.

    8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665 MHz

    Help, please? It's my first time here.

    @Zareen1, welcome to the forum.

    I don't think you have any problems.  If you run Defender again and no virus was detected, he went.  You should be safe.

    The main thing you need to do is be extremely care about what you download from the Internet.  Anytime you download anything, there is a chance of contracting a virus.

  • Satellite Pro A40 works now painfully slow

    Hi all, I have a satellite pro a40 which has served me well for a long time here.

    Although it runs painfully slow, now all the programs, including the internet despite my speed of 4 MB.

    I have zone alarm that made regular virus and spyware scans, I tried to defrag and disk clean up but not of the above solve the problem long term.

    Short of ideas, if anyone out there can suggest a remedy? Thank you.

    Hi Urbansafari,

    There are a few things you can try to improve the speed of your A40 - I guess you're talking about the speed (or lack thereof!) to which your laptop seems to be tasks such as opening new windows, programs etc.?

    The first thing to do is to look at the list of all programs start; Uninstall anything you don't need really or use is a good way of clutches back disk space (Windows uses hard disk as 'virtual memory' space to supplement the RAM mounted inside).

    The next thing to do is look at what programs are started in the background when you start Windows. To do this, click Start, then run and type msconfig. In the window that opens, click on the start right tab and you will see a drop-down list of all the programs that start with Windows. Without recognition program names, it may be best to leave them because they can be processes required by Windows. Uncheck all the programs you want to start automatically the next time you turn on the computer. When you are done, click on save and you will be prompted to restart the A40 for the changes to take effect.

    It is perhaps that a new installation of Windows is needed to delete all the temporary files and the old registry entries that have accumulated to over time, in which case backup all your data before running the recovery disc.

    One last thing to consider is the weather you may qualify for an upgrade memory HDD largest capacity, which are both reasonably good solutions worked for a slow running computer.

    Let us know if this is useful and how you...

  • Threads

    Hi all

    I have a few questions on threads of Labview and Windows. We have the producer/consumer for acquiring data model.

    Loop producer acquires the data and pushes it to the queue.

    Producer loop is a quite complex, it contains NO analog output and another two cards IO programmed through the DLL.

    I would like to optimize the speed of the loop of producer to do, I offered to put the loop of the producer to the other thread.

    Now I'm wondering if it is possible, and how, if I can be sure that producer loop runs, in the different Windows thread, with a priority in real time ?

    I'm familiar with Server VI etc, but has not found a way to be shure that it works in the separate Windows thread. It is possible at all?

    Michael.

    mishklyar wrote:
    [...] Windows with real-time priority thread? [...]

    Michael,

    It's antagonism. Windows and real-time exclude each other.

    That being said, we can try to improve the performance of certain tasks/threads to achieve performance comparable to real time.

    First of all, you should not run any other software in the background. Disable services non-critical as screen saver, disk hard indexing, firewalls and virus analysis tools.

    Second step: increase the priority of LabVIEW.exe in real-time using the Task Manager. You must do this because all threads created by LV have maximum priority to LabVIEW.exe regarding the operating system. Please note that from this moment, a deadlock in BT will most likely hang the whole system.

    Third step: create different priorities for your LV 'tasks. The easiest way is by using call loops.

    Please note that this approach I have static is strongly discouraged and can lead to an unstable system. If you need real-time applications, it is recommended to use dedicated real-time platforms such as LV RT or FPGA.

    hope this helps,

    Norbert
