  • Firefox (which has apparently anti-virus protection) is usable on a computer with already installed Norton antivirus?

    I said that I can only have 1 antivirus program on my computer at the same time. Since firefox has features antivirus, can install it on a computer that already has a Norton antivirus program?

    User Agent

    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; Trident/4.0; GTB6.5; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; .NET CLR 3.5.30729 .NET CLR 3.0.30729; NET4.0C)

    Firefox does not include anti-virus protection, you need a separate program such as Norton anti-virus.

    Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began.

    Restore point:

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  • Problem: Windows Security Center gives me a "alert" that my anti-virus is turned off, but I am running Windows defender and Microsoft Security Essentials.

    Windows Security Center gives me a "alert" that my anti-virus is disabled.  I have Win XP Professtional and'm running Windows defender and Microsoft Security Essentials times which I recently uninstalled, restarted the computer and reinstalled more updated.  I read related security problems, but I have not found a match.  I have a screenshot of the Win Security Center Alert, but unable to attach.  It is said: ' Windows found multiple antivirus programs on this computer, but they all report that they could be updated or disabled. " Click on the recommendations for suggested actions... [what I did without success, i.e. update.  «[I uninstalled, stop, rebooted and reinstalled and updated]»

    When I shoot to the top of MSE it says, "protection is enabled, and updated definitions.

    Windows Defender said: "Nothing detected" and "computer running normally."

    Before the uninstall and update, I ran System Mechanic from Iolo, who has done wonders for speed.

    When it comes to antivirus software, you want one and only one installed and running on your computer.  Two or more may come into conflict with eachother and degrade performance.  I advise you to uninstall Windows defender and use soley mse.

    also I strongly suggest that you avoid using "PC optimization" tools.  They can help a little, but they often do more harm than good.

  • cant get anti virus program to turn it on in the windows Security Center

    I have windows vista and an alert pops up, saying: my antivirus program is disabled. I opened Security Center says AVG anti virus reports that it is turned off. I clicked on the button, and it didn't turn it on. another box pops up asking if I trust this program click Yes, I have confidence in it. Yet once, nothing happens.  any suggestions on something that I could try.

    Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. Windows regularly checks if an antivirus program is installed on your computer, that they are running, and that it is up-to-date. The status of your antivirus program is displayed in Windows Security Center. However, Windows doesn't detect all antivirus programs, and some antivirus programs report their status to Windows.

    If you receive notifications related to security on your virus protection software, but you know that your antivirus software is installed and updated, you can follow the steps below to stop receiving these notifications. You should do this only if you are unsure that you have a full, the up-to-date antivirus program installed on your computer and that real-time scanning, which checks every file before it is opened or used, is turned on.

    To specify that you are using an antivirus program that Windows does not find

    1. Open Security Center.

    2. Click on protection against malware, and then, under virus protection, click on show me my available options.

    3. In the Windows Security Center dialog box, click on I have an antivirus program that I will control myself.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

      Security Center displays your antivirus settings as not monitored, and you will not receive more notifications about your virus protection software.

    Note

    • The show me my link options is not available when the Virus protection setting is marked on.

  • The Windows Security Center Service was unable to establish even queries with WMI to third-party antivirus monitor, anti-spyware and firewall.

    Original title: do I have to re - install Windows 7?

    Today, I opened the Action Center and noticed that Panda Internet Security reported he was off, when it wasn't.  I checked the administrative events and one of the errors was: Security Windows Service Center could be same queries WMI to monitor third party antivirus, antispyware and firewall.  I've got Panda IS 2012 running, which is a very good program.

    I just spent a good hourzs little addressing a Panda technicina, who, after a lot of faffing autour, told me that I either set up a new profile, or I re - install Windows, I don't want to do, because I could lose the system restore facilities, (I had to ask Microsoft to help me address the issue of the restoration of the system because it did not work).  The problem with the Security Center Windows Service dates back to August 10, 2011.

    Anyone know what I'd do, which involves having to uninstall and reinstall Windows?

    Kind regards

    Hello

    1. which parameter is used to install Panda antivirus?

    2 did you use typical or custom?

    If you use Panda IS 2012 as an anti-virus, then Windows Security Center may have disabled the native Windows Firewall, that does send a real-time alert. You can try shooting the alert and check.

    Important: Select the security settings, once you have done to solve the problem.

    You can also check the parameters of Panda IS 2012 to allow the automatic update and other necessary parameters.

    To try to update manually, follow these steps:

  • What I have to buy extra (Norton or McAfee) anti-virus or is the antivirus in Windows Security Center enough?

    What I have to buy extra (Norton or McAfee) anti-virus or is the antivirus in Windows Security Center strong enough? I have McAfee on my computer, but my subscription has expired. I wonder if it is necessary to update? or if the antivirus and security installed in the Windows Security Center is all I really need. and everything is a little more kill?

    Hi RevStevieB,

    Windows Security Center helps improve your computer's security by checking the status of several security essentials on your computer, including firewall settings, Windows automatic updating, anti-malware software settings.

    If Windows detects a problem with any of these security essentials (for example, if your antivirus program has expired), Center security displays a notification and places a Security Center icon in the notification area.

    I recommend you to download & install the antivirus or security software up-to-date so that it works correctly.

    You can also download & run Microsoft Security Essentials on your computer.

    Hope the helps of information.
    Please post back and we do know.
