  • Security Center does not recognize installed AntiVirus software

    I tried to update my Roxio Roxio 2009 2007 but I have an error message and so I removed the installation 2009 and re-installed my 2007 edition.

    When I removed Roxio 2009 I was correctly or incorrectly advised to remove all references to the "Roxio" in the registry.

    I put "Roxio" in the box search of Regedit and deleted all references to Roxio then maybe that is what caused my problem.

    In addition to this, I have only 1 point of restoration and it is after I re-installed Roxio 2007 after using the cleaning and the points of additional backup option.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    What a fool one program is Roxio for not being able to uninstall their own stuff more graciously.  I read their directions.

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

    If you have used the XP cleaning and told to delete everything except your last restore Point, she did what you say, which leaves you with a RP.  What do you think thre certain shortcomings here?  It seems that it works perfectly.

    There might still some AV programs that XP doesn't recognize not and are there is a difference between antivirus and software malware removal tools.  If you are 100% sure you have something useful installed and XP does not detect it as an AV program and complain about this, you can tell XP not not to warn you of this condition.

    To do this, click Start, settings, Control Panel, Security Center, and then click the link that reads:

    Change the way security centers alerts me

    Things together the way you want to and you will not be disturbed by these messages again.  The risk is, you are disabling/undo built in the protection mechanism.  I have nothing of any AV software (on purpose - I look forward to infections), so I have my disabled notification but maybe this isn't a good idea for everyone.

    Some malicious programs, analysis of the programs (such as MBAM) will report this setting (unless there is an infection) and offer to fix it for you because he thinks it might be an affliction.

    When you have the time, I recommend that do you this too:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    The scans by operating clean, then to solve any problems.

    Do not guess what the problem might be - understand and resolve it. I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

  • Windows Security Center does not recognize my antivirus

    I installed a new driver for my Radeon 3450 graphic card. I had a problem with it and could not roll back so I tried restoring the system did not work. Since that time WSC won't recognize my Norton AntiVirus. I am running Vista 32 bit on an Acer Aspire M3201. Any suggestions? Thank you.

    Do not think, but you may as well uninstall it now. Since then he probably won't do anything once it expires in any case.

    You can try this when well even if it isn't Norton it can work. If you need assistance I could help you with teamviewer. You'll see what I'm doing

  • Security Center does not recognize the Windows Security Essentials

    Windows Security Essentials does not seem to register with Security Center.  Security Center reports that no Virus protection is enabled.

    1. I installed Windows XP 32 - bit WGA, activated the product and updated to SP3.

    2 security Center starts giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection, because none has been installed.

    3. I installed McAffee VirusScan.

    4 security Center stopped giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection.

    5. I uninstalled McAffee VirusScan.

    6 security Center has resumed giving Windows security alerts for protection against the viruses as before.

    7. I installed Windows Windows Security Essentials and rebooted.

    8. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Windows Security Essentials with no joy.

    Windows Security Essentials installation did not prevent Windows security alerts.  No Windows Security Essentials registry entry will appear in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Security Center and monitoring.  If Microsoft consider essential security to be an antivirus product, then how to Windows Security Essentials register with Security Center?

    I understand that this is an information and alert issue only.  I understand that Windows Security Essentials works actually ok.  I am particularly concerned by the reports.  It conditions my deployment of Windows Home Server.  Deactivation of surveillance or the alert is not a solution, just a poor quality work around.

    In a previous thread, the author of this question even abandoned and has not requested additional assistance.  An explanation was given (relevant for Windows 7), but no solution has been offered.  Windows XP has not been addressed.   http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-security/the-Security-Center-has-not-recorded-an-anti-virus/15ae2383-7ced-4850-A863-f7eb8cc90ee5

    I had the same problem for a while now (I'm on xp) and have searched the Internet for a solution but found nothing at the moment.
