• The center of security and Windows Firewall does not.

  I run MSE and Windows Firewall. The Security Center will pop up and tell me my firewall is disabled and I'm unprotected. When I check the recommendations, sometimes it is still on! Other times it is turned off, turn back on and someday or later does it again. This is what would serve turn off my Windows Firewall or give false information on it power status?

  Hi saltydad,

  From the description, even if you use MSE does participate or part of this problem.  It is a problem between the Security Center and Windows Firewall.

  Norton internet security becomes awkward

  Hello

  Yes you still need an antivirus program and you are right that Norton tends to cause problems.

  Norton Removal Tool
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

  You want to remove Norton and old and even uninstalled antivirus can leave remnants then download and run
  the Norton Removal Tool. Also, I would get Avast and Prevx and you should be in good shape.

  Download the 3 to get back to after removing the McAfee antivirus.

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT after each.

  --------------------------------------------------------

  Here is what I use:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender

  Protected IE - mode

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

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

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to 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 suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie 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.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows Vista SP2 fails to install and Windows Firewall will not stay

  Hello, I have problems with Vista 64-bit, it will not install service pack 2 and Windows Firewall will not stay. I tried to manually enable ICF manually and it won't turn. It gave me error 6x9D. I ran several antivirus scans malware byte and pc cleaner pro 2012 and the issue has not been resolved. If I could get help would be much appreciated. Thank you

  Hello

  What do you use for security?

  If you are using an Internet Security Suite, it will have its own firewall and disables the default Windows Firewall.

  And you should have only one firewall to avoid problems related to the operating system.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  You have not installed SP1?

  If so, try a direct download of SP2.

  Vista SP2 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17669

• RV082 and Windows 7, no internet connection with active firewall

  Hello

  I have a 1.3.98 - tm firmware RV082 and have recently upgraded several Machines to glass & RC for testing, but they can't access the internet.

  They can access all the other mahcines internal, but cannot ping the router.  The first Pc I upgraded was beautiful and accessible to the internet without problem.

  The second started Ok but then loses the internet connection.  It can access all internal machines and if I reboot it with XP (dual boot) it works fine.  He has been an operational machine without problems netowrk for 2 or 3 years.  I tried a diffetrn nic card and another cable froma different wall point in case there was a problem that XP could cicumvent and Windows 7 has been more difficult.

  Now the second PC has started doing the same thing and wont connect to internet.

  If I disable the firewall on the RV082 Windows 7 PC connect correctly.  Can I wathc the tray icon of system on the State of PC modification simply chagnign the status of the firewall on the router.

  Occasioanlly a PC will continue to work for a short period before losing internet again or blocked him.  I have checkled newspapers and others are no entries in the standard newspaper.

  I bypassed Vista Batteux ther so a setting or something I need to change on the window smachines, but as I have Windows 7 on test in withotu the Council to clarify a problem and my two lapotps and have connected through various cafes, Internet etc. even in Spain and Brazil without problem I tend to think it's a problem with the RV082.

  Any ideas would be helpful?

  Hey Kevin,

  To clarify, we have not heard of this I didn't think (I am curious as well), did this start happening when you upgraded the computers?

  Its sounds like it from what I've read, and also you can generate by activating and deactivating the FW on request, but this didn't happen until you have changed the PC SW?

  If it does, then, looks like soemthing SW PC made and maybe you can endure a wireshark trace and try to sniff which continues when the PC tries to access the internet.   I'm not asking to review track, only that it can help you.    If you feel like it is a defect of the Cisco product, you can open a folder with the Small Business Support Center and they will watch the track with you.

• Connecting to a server 10 Linux window and window 7 causes a connection timeout

  I have configured a certain configuration of Linux server in network.

  10 and the window 7 window causes a connection timeout when connecting to these servers.

  I tried to connect these servers with Windows not as Android and Mac but also Windows XP system and I connect to these server just fine so I don't think it's a firewall issue.

  I have also connected to these servers very well in the past with window 10 and Windows 7 so I think that the issue is a recent update of security Windows.

  Then I tried these problems myself but have no chance to find a solution

  I can also give you site to see the problem www.ozanet.com

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Problem with AVG and Windows

  A.V.G. IN INTERFACE WITH M.S.

  * original title - A.Programs compatibility Application Applications App Apps game games Legacy Crash crashes Hang hangs *.

  If your computer is actually turn off and isn't just pass in "Sleep" or "Hibernation" during a scan, and this happens only when you run an analysis, then I must say that yes there is a problem with this security on this computer suite.

  Personally, I'm worried about the security suites.  They developed gradually bigger and bigger, which requires more system resources, and when they fit well with a particular operating system, they can interfere with its normal functions.  My preference is to use a good antivirus and Windows Firewall.

• Windows Update not working do not Error Message and Windows Defender cannot update Error Message definitions

  I ran CA 2010 Security Suite and you have scanned for Malware with regard to the Windows Update Error Message. He found none. I ran Microsoft Malware malicious tool, and it found. I ran Windows Defender and he found. I don't have CA and Windows Firewall to protect my computer and I have disabled both in trying to solve this problem of Windows Update and Windows Defender.

  I got this error 4 days ago. Here is what I tried:

  -I went on various Web sites, including Microsoft Support - and tried to solve the problem through services.msc and msconfig.exe. None worked.

  -J' noticed in msconfig. where it says start waiting next to Windows Update. There are 3-4 elements, which are affiliated to Windows Update and made sure they did not exist in the registry.

  -J' have to ensure that they were supposed to be automatic or manual under services.msc.

  -J' rebooted several times and nothing changes.

  Windows Defender does not update the definitions, and I do not know if this coincides with the release of Windows does not.

  I am at my wit's end and do not want to crash and burn my computer.

  I need serious help. Please, I beg you!

  Thank you.

  I had to call Microsoft. Alex tried to add registry keys and input upgrade.

  My Windows Update has almost been altered. It could be my mistake or it has become corrupted when running other services at the same time.

  I was sent a Windows 7 Home Premium Disc to upgrade and start over, as my Vista disk was corrupted as well.

  I would not recommend trying one of the suggestions listed on other sites. It's my personal opinion because I have in the past and it worsened my problem.

  I also wouldn't delete all programs (unless absolutely necessary) because I remove 4 MSMXL and he made their work more difficult.

  Sometimes the only solution is to call Microsoft and they will evaluate if a charge of telephone support is necessary from the outset, before they run for your problem.

  Despite what you may have read, Microsoft Technical Support technicians are very efficient and kind.

  We inform you to open a slot during your day or even open your day for the problem to be solved.

  Mine took 2 1/2 hours, and they had to remind me the next day to make the order for the disk because it could not be done the same day.

• Error Windows XP and Windows Management Instrumentation

  I am running Windows XP Home Edition (32 bit).  I have just installed SP3 and now all my system tools have disappeared.  Any time I try to access system information, I get the message "cannot gather Information - cannot access the Windows Management Instrumentation software.»  Management of Windows files may be moved or missing"I'm not a computer guru, can someone help me? Thank you.

  You hear the message says this:

  Cannot collect Information
  Unable to access Windows Management Instrumentation software.  Management of Windows files may be displaced or missing.

  When you run msinfo32, you see:

  Cannot collect Information
  Unable to access Windows Management Instrumentation software.  Management of Windows files may be displaced or missing.

  Either the Windows Management Instrumentation Service is not running or your information from WMI files are missing or damaged. It is easy to rebuild the WMI information files and replace all the files corrupted or suspicious.

  To solve your problem, stop the Windows Management Instrumentation service, rename the folder suspicious or with WMI, restart it your system.  When the system restarts, the WMI service will start automatically and rebuild the WMI folder and it's content automatically.

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  services.msc

  Click OK to launch the Services applet.

  Locate the Windows Management Instrumentation Service.  If the status column indicates that the WMI Service is started (ongoing), right-click on the WMI Service and choose to stop the WMI Service.   Do not again try msinfo32 or the Service starts again (you don't want that right now).

  Answered in the affirmative, if requested to stop Security Center and Windows Firewall Services (with stopped services, your system is vulnerable to attacks from the Internet, so do not receive is not on the Internet again until you reboot your system).

  Now would be a good time to check also the properties of the WMI Service to make sure the startup type is set to automatic for the Service WMI will start automatically the next time the system is restarted.  Make the necessary adjustments to the Service startup type is set to automatic (do not restart yet however).

  The Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that your boot drive is C):

  C:\Windows\System32\Wbem\
   
  Locate and then rename the folder "Repository" to something, as you remember, such as:

  Repository.Old

  Restart the computer, and then make sure that the WMI service is restarted automatically and that a new repository folder has been created to replace the one that has been renamed.  It may take a while to completely rebuild the file storage (several seconds or minutes) so expect it ends.
   
  After the reboot, you will notice the wmiprvse.exe Service running in the Task Manager and it will continue to run until it completes the reconstruction of the repository (this may take a little time).

  The rebuilding process could take several minutes depending on your system, but eventually the wmiprvse.exe Service ends and disappear from the Manager tasks.

  If you then look at the Event Viewer Application log, there may be some error messages like this:

  Event type: error
  Event source: WinMgmt
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 4
  Description:
  Failed to load C:\WINDOWS\MICROSOFT.NET\FRAMEWORK\V4.0.30319\MOF\SERVICEMODEL MOF. MOF by retrieving the file from the repository.

  This is normal because when the system restarts, the wmiprvse.exe process has to rebuild parts of the repository as well. It is a mistake to sequence as shown below. You should not see these mistakes again after the system has been rebooted and catches up and finishes rebuilding the WMI repository.

  Explanations for errors encountered in the case of the Application of visualization of the newspaper the WMI repository is rebuilt:

  Explanation
  Windows Management Instrumentation could have tried to compile the file (mofcomp) a .mof marked for ASR, but compilation failed. This is probably due to a sequencing problem.
    
  User action
  To correct the problem, try to compile the .mof again. If this does not resolve the problem, contact the provider of technical support for the program in question.

  You shouldn't need to do something about these error messages and do not see again them after that XP has finished rebuilding the WMI repository.

  I can't say how long this will take to rebuild, maybe 10 to 15 minutes until it settles completely.

• I need to share files between windows xp and Windows 7

  I am unable to share files between Windows XP Home Edition and Windows 7 Ultimate edition

  I have a wireless router and my two computers are connected on it.

  Please give me detailed guidelines on how to share files between them.

  Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

  Discovery of plug in the network
  Open the files and printers sharing
  Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
  Plug the password protected sharing

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, running on Windows 7 sharing files and printer as above will take care of this for you. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

  Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. In Windows 7 I usually share the Desktop of the user and the Public directory.

  F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response.
