How can I remove the virus from my computer TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen trojan?
I have a Trojan horse ( TR/Crypt.XPACK. GEN ) virus on my laptop, it is in my C:\Windows\Temp folder and my Avira anti-virus program sees and can remove it, but the virus continues to recreate under a different file name in the C:\Windows\Temp folder. I use a laptop HP DV6000 and OS is Windows Vista Home Premium.
Also, I installed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware in Mode safe mode with networking, and he has yet to see the virus.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards

I have a HP Pavilion DV7 laptop and I got a number of viruses, I took in the Geek Squad and had removed them but last time thay made so they completely ruin my computer, my files are missing, I can't change my background in computers and I can't watch Pluzz.fr more because he says I am missing silverlight and when I try to install it it does not work because it is unable to a temporary file.

not cause a continuation of any contamination. See below for methods and DO NOT
Just launch one or two of the methods of detection and hope that there is none. DO A THOROUGH
JOB!2. after 1. Back up all the files you need on the main drive - use a USB or removable
media such as CD, DVD or other external drives.3 restore the system to factory out-of-the-box state. This command deletes all programs and

After removing a virus from my computer last year, I struggle to access most programs such as media player and other things. When I try to open something, I get a popup asking me to choose the program I want to use to open this file. For some programs, this file is actually listed. But for the most part, they did not. For example, Nero express is what I use to copy CDs or DVDs. I have to go into a safe mode to use it as well as using programs to run virus checks. I was told that the virus had somehow corrupted or affected my file extensions. I almost had cheated using powerful PC Max but did some research beforehand. Any suggestions?
original title: File Extension problemsIf you need to go to Safe Mode in order to use certain applications (for example, Nero Express), particularly antivirus scans, you most likely have not successfully removed all malware from your computer.
How did you remove the virus from your computer last year?
You then install an antivirus application? Which one? Are you still using it? What's his current subscription? Its subscription has already been authorized expiration?
What version of Windows, including service pack, do you use?
What other anti-malware software do you currently use?
Have you analysed recently with the following free tools? Otherwise, download, install, update and run scans (not simultaneously) with each of them:
MalwareBytes AntiMalware
SUPERAntiSpyware
Like many also restore file associations.- Right-click on a file and select open with > choose program.
- Look in the lists of programs (split in 'Recommend programs' and 'Other programs')
- If you can't find the application you want to use to open this type of file, click on the button "Browse".
- The "Program Files" folder should open (if it isn't, go to C:\Program Files
- Find the program you want to use. If you are looking in C:\Program Files\
------, you determine which file is the actual program. You should be able to tell from the icon. If not, see note below) - Select the program (the exe file or the name of the program in one of these lists) and check the box "always use the program selected to open this type of file"
- Click OK
- Repeat the above for each type of different file according to the needs
Note: If you need to determine the EXE file for an application, just right-click on the shortcut you use to start the program, and then select Properties. Click on the tab "shortcut". The 'Target' box contains the path name to go to the executable (EXE file) for the program. For example, the executable file for Firefox is "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
There are a few exceptions, including but not limited to Microsoft applications, which use a more obscure reference to the target. Word, for example, indicates the 'target' as a 'Microsoft Office' gray of no matter the version. The real exe for Word is 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICEnn\WinWord.exe' where the nn refers to the version of Word that you have (Word XP/2002 is 10, Word 2003 is 11, Word 2007 is 12, Word 2010 is 14).
If you need assistance with a shortcut that does not directly show the name of path, ask.

My operating system is Windows XP
The printer is a Brother 2035
I also tried the uninstal brother tool but it also fails to remove the software from my computer.
I already deleted the printer, so I can't reconect, which I believe can casue a problem when you try to uninstall?
The above mentioned error message can mean there is a problem with my system?
Everyone knows about this problem? and they were able to find a method to uninstall/remove all files to their printer?
Thank you very much
Peter
This error seems to be related with InstallShield. I did not experience myself, but see this page--> http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/installshield-error-5004-0x80070005.61658/
I would like to start with the 'solution' down - rename the folder InstallShield/Professional.
If all else fails, I suggest you to contact brother support and/or support Flexera Software (unfortunately, there is nothing in the Flexera KnowledgeBase on 5004 with argument 0x7e error and their 'community forum' is not functional at the moment).
To get into Safe Mode, press F8 immediately after the restart. If you get the Windows logo, you waited too long to start typing. What you're looking for is white on black 'Advanced Boot Menu Options'. When you see that, using the arrows (mouse doesn't work here) to select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER.
Reboot will automatically return to normal mode.

How to completely remove Photoshop Elements from my computer?
Hello
I'm trying to completely remove Photoshop Elements from my computer. So far, I've failed in my attempts to do so. The reason why I have do is b/c for some reason I can't understand, my images - the folders named by date of shooting - files contain duplicates randomly. When this happens, the file names follow the convention of DSC_0222 and DSC_0222-1. Exactly the same size of file and metadata. In some cases, each image is duplicated. In other cases, only certain images in the folder are duplicated. I can't understand how they got there - for example it does not seem to bear no relationship to the photos that I have edited, which was a theory I've had for a while. Elements is responsible? Or is this some sort of bug in the process of downloading the camera (I have a Nikon D40). In any case, I have given up trying to sovle this problem and decided I return back to the beginning and reload all of my camera. So my real question here is how to uninstall completely the elements.
Here's what I did: I uninstalled Photoshop Elements through the Add/Remove Programs utility. I have had no error during the uninstall process. Then I completely deleted the directory my images (don't worry - I it backed up in several places!). So, at this point there is * no. * photos on my computer at all. I reinstall the elements, open upward and - you guessed it! -the catalog is still there with all the thumbnails of the photos that I deleted from my hard drive. Of course, each thumbnail is reported as "missing".
So, how uninstall/reinstall the elements and make forget any memory of the previous catalogue? Why is it "remember" it that way when the images are no longer even on the computer? Is this not a bug?
I worked on this issue for far longer than I care to remember - if someone can tell me how to get really back at ground zero - so I can start over I would be deeply grateful. After the upgrade to 9 (7) elements to try to solve this problem, I am close to abandonment of the elements entirely...
While we're at it, if someone has any idea whence photos of duplicates and how to avoid that from happening, I'm ' all ears!
Thank you!
Your catalog is deliberately stored separately in the PSE program files, so that you can uninstall/reinstall without losing all your work. You can delete the file catalog > catalog > remove, or do it manually. Look at help > System Info in the Organizer to find the path of the file.

Having difficulty to remove the adware from my computer
Yesterday I ran a search in google for winzip password recovery which led me to a website called . www zippasswordrecovery.com /. I have AVG Anti-Virus installed on my computer, so I thought that I was safe to download the file. However, once downloaded AVG detected a threat, so I put in quarantine. Apparently it installed on my computer, and of course annoying adware ads popped up whenever I went through Internet. I went to add or remove programs and found (file name is FREEzeFlip), and every time I try to remove it, my antivirus detects a threat and quarantines, preventing me to spend with the removal process. I did a scan with AVG which found nothing, then installed Malware Bytes, which found 6 threats which were all adware and supposed to be deleted successfully. I restarted my computer, browsed the web, and every time I visit a Web site, Malware Bytes gives the message "successfully blocked access to a potentially dangerous website 64.94.137.96 type: outgoing," I guess that's blocking a pop-up every time ad that appears. I went to add or remove programs and Malware Bytes gave essentially the same message as AVG and quarantine. I googled 'remove FREEzeFlip' and found this Web page with technical support information to remove the FREEzeFlip from the computer: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:yvW4QAnD1fYJ:freezeflip.com/support.html+remove+FREEzeFlip&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&source= www.google.com (click on text version if it does not load). It is very obvious that it is intentionally malicious because it says "If you continue to see the elements of the FreezeFlip program on your computer after following the steps in uninstalling above, your antivirus software blocks maybe uninstall completely." and that it proceeds then to tell you can uninstall your antivirus software, visit a link to download an uninstall program and restart your computer. LOL... these idiots...
Thank you in advance for your help! Sorry for the long story, but I didn't leave out the small details that may be important.

This is most likely a temporary file created by a security or other Windows update. Restart the PC and see if you can delete it then. If this isn't the case, then you may want to assess the question to seize the property and removing against evil, it could cause if it isn't a vestige. In addition, he is unlikely to win a significant amount of disk space, clean as you do only puts off the coast of the inevitable hard drive upgrade - if the drive is full, get a larger.
