• Avast anti-virus cannot start

  OK, here's the thing had put end to my 30 day trial of Nod32 Antivirus ESET then I uninstalled and then find a new anti virus I download this anti virus AVAST and installed correctly, but it does not start. The AVAST main menu works, but my laptop is not protected, so there isn't this HOTFIX NOW on top, I clicked it but he needs my permission to run so I clicked the button continue after I clicked on continue the same window came out so I clicked again then the same thing happens so I clicked again the last pop up was then AVAST saying theres something on the Firewall. And so I am irritated and wanted to delete AVAST antivirus but I couldn't find it in Add/Remove programs so I tried to find its location and manually delete its folder, but when I tried to delete the folder it says Destination folder access denied: you need to confirm this operation so I clicked on continue, then the file operation clicked on continue , but the window of folder of Destination refused but this time, the only choice is to Try again or cancel so I clicked the try again button but the same window just keeps jumping up to his irritating so I can't insert my USB on this laptop because it is not protected T_T pls help

  Hello

  Run the ESET removal tool to make sure it is completely removed as leftovers can cause strange problems.
  After you run the tool and did a reboot and re - install Avast.

  ESET removal tool
  http://KB.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&ID=SOLN2289

  ===============================================================

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
  Operation of the network.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
  Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
  Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
  disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
  and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
  Finish those you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
  programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
  or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
  would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
  (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
  never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

• error code 80072efd, not able to install updates for Microsoft put updated or Anti virus

  I tried to update my laptop with Windows Vista Ultimate Edition with the latest updates of security etc from Windows.  I can't update.  When I try to go to the site it blocks just the pop up with a page download page as mif I am no longer connected to the internet.

  When I try to download updates for the anti-virus software, I get the same problem.  I've followed all the advice available online to those problems, s.  Disabling the firewall and make sure wondowsupdate.com et al. are allowed through the firewall, but nothing helped.

  It's happened since Sept/Oct 2009... have previously had installed mcafee who started do not work/update

  Believe me: AVG was not installing properly & is not working properly and that you are dealing with an infection hijackware well-rooted here!

  See...

  Cleaning a compromised system

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

  HOW to do a clean install of Windows XP: see method 1 and http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

• Laptop crashes when you run anti-virus Scan

  Recently changed my anti-virus. I uninstalled the old and outdated antivirus such as suggested by the guests during the installation of the new anti-virus.

  my laptop hangs to this file. c:\windows\system32\drivers\cdfs.sys

  I already reported it to the editor of my new anti-virus. Their response was for me to check my video card (I am not a technophile, I don't know how to do this) make sure that I got the last video driver.

  What is the problem with my laptop? What should I do?

  Thank you

  Hello

  CDFS.sys is the CD driver so tell them allows you to check the video driver are a mistake. This could be a
  false positive, which means that it is incorrectly detected as malware.

  Did you run the the site of the manufacturer of your old antivirus removal tool to make sure, that it leaves no leftovers?

• Suspected virus, only on FF internet explore, IE not found using anti-virus/malware, not in the modules or programs. unwanted adds on each site.

  On all non-secure Web sites that I visit, it is has unsolicited adds or games if looked at, seems to be in the right place, but have a small "ads not by this site" below. If I hover over the announcement, he will lead me to a site.

  Firefox is my default browser, but this does not happen on the internet explore (no doubt I got the virus by surfing with FF).

  I can't find any add-ons or suspicious programs/services that run in the background. Kapersky 2012 and a-squared free has not found any suspicious programs on my laptop.

  Malware scan

  Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

  You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

  • Microsoft safety scanner
  • MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
  • TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit utility

  Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

  More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

  Reset Firefox

  The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
  Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions, open Web sites and preferences.

  To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
  2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

  Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

• Firefox 5.0 disabled an add-on, which is associated with my anti-virus software. Is this disabled module if I use another browser too or just in Firefox?

  I just installed Firefox 5.0. I have also just renewed by subscription to Webroot Internet Security Essentials, so I have the updates on that as well, and apparently something in the latest Webroot is not compatible with the latest Firefox. When I open Firefox, I get a message that a Webroot 1.7 'Add-on' and a few files associated with Webroot (I wrote not them down and the error message disappeared) have been disabled. What worries me, because I do not know what part of my antivirus program has been disabled by Firefox. My Webroot reports that it is functional and up to date.

  What he says is that Webroot has a special add-on for firefox which does not match the version of firefox you have. Webroot will still work, but it will not use this special accessory. You may or may not have a similar attachment that it is bundled with other browsers. I'm not sure. All-in-all, the module is not the main part of your anti-virus, it's just a piece of bonus, they give you.

  Firefox has not disabled your anti-virus software, and using another browser will be no more or less dangerous than before that.

  Think of it as a vacuum cleaner. He always goes to the vacuum cleaner and clean, but the small fancy brush to clean baseboards or something does not fit immediately.

  They have most likely only need to change the small part of it that shows what versions of firefox, it will work with, if the chances are that if you keep an eye on, there will probably be an update soon with a version of the add-on that is compatible.

• Do I need anti virus on my new macbook air

  I'm a newbie when it comes to Macbooks, although I had an iPhone and an iPad for years. I bought my Macbook Air last week, and before that I've never used Windows. I'm in love and of course always get the hang of it all, but does have the anti-virus software on my nice new shiny Macbook?

  I'm sorry if this is a really lame question, but information that I found are quite old and obsolete!
