Threat found using Avast, Win32: Trojan-gen, moved to the chest, but how to remove it?
I use Avast free version for my anti-virus software. This morning I did a full scan and it came back with 1 found threat: Win32: Trojan-gen. He asked me what I would like to take. At first I chose it remove but I get an error message saying that action was not executed. I chose and then move to the chest. This action was confirmed. That move "chest" means? East - identical to a virus threat? I have to do something more? TIA

Hello
Move to the chest means he has been quarantined and, consequently, nuetralized. You can either leave it there, delete it,
or if it was a false positive, then you can restore it back to where it was.
For more information on Avast, please check these sources.

If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
the cause.
No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.
It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
the regular windows when you can.

Smart Z580 Fan Noise Control - I found the button, but how does it work?
I just bought a Z580 with Windows 8. It has a Smart Fan Noise Control sticker. My understanding is that it can be used to control the fan speed. How? I don't find it in the manual. The button is the right most of five white labels under the badge of lenovo under the screen. Then, the fan (not really a button) button is one that looks like a sign with a quarter moon on the right. If I press on it, it does the cleaning thing fan but how do I speed?
I would try to change the speed of the fan because my fan made a very slight sound pulse. Otherwise I love this computer. It has so many interesting features and works well.
I think that you must install the version of Win7 power management software, as I think the Win8 version has only the option "dusting", when the Win7 version has 'standard', 'silent' and 'effective heat dissipation", also the"dusting"option by pressing the sensitive, stars and moon symbol.
Make a system restore point before changing anything.

HP pavilion g6: I want to use my laptop HP pavilion g6 for the games, but he keeps late
so I dissided recently to start to play games steam on my laptop but after downloading one of the games (survial Ark) it was unbearly lag. What can I do to stop this? (I don't want to buy a new computer/laptop)
Don't know who exactly the model you have. It would be useful to know the specifications, but the g6 models have generally unimpressive video power. Not all computers can play serious games; not every car is a race car. Nobody wants to spend the money on a better computer or a faster car, but you get what you pay for.

found my mack to be infected by Fujack working - malware - suggestions how to remove it?
My mac connects to the Internet via a firewall.
Recently, the firewall blocks an outbound connection from my mac.
Wire Wall report shows: blocked Fujack worm.
The research on the web: found to be malware - thunderous 2
None currently listed by Apple on this withdrawal.
Supports Mac - suggested - Malware bytes - essays - did not work.
Appriciate if any Apple / OS X experts around the world could help.
FWIW, the "Fujack" worm infects only Windows. 2 thundering never left "in the wild". It's a proof of concept which has been fixed by Apple where it has never existed. They are two different things. To do more research.

my Start button has been moved to the upper right, how can I move this back to the lower left
Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem
Take the Start button by clicking the close box of corn that surround the button (it's hard to choose, but once you keep pressed the mutto left of the mouse and you are free home) and drag it down to the left and once it is in place, release the mouse button.
I hope this helps.

Menu start has been moved to the side. How can I move it down?
What do you do when the start menu on the side rather than from below?
You must have accidentally moved. Click with the right button on the taskbar (this is the bar where is the Start Menu) and make sure that 'Lock the taskbar' is disabled. Then you simply click left and drag it to where you want it to be. Then right-click and check 'Lock the taskbar' so you don't accidentally move it again.
