  They will help you when repost you in Forum Vista security at the above address.

  Data recovery:

  1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

  2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

  3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  Download the Vista software from the link above.

  After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

  Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

  Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1^st in the boot order.

  Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

  When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

  Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

  Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

  Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

  See you soon.

• How can I find and remove the 'eco antivirus' virus from my laptop?

  I recently contracted computer disguised as «eco antivirus» virus  I can't find the files on my computer to remove them.  I also tried to do a system restore in the hope of eliminating the virus.  What can I do?

  Eco Antivirus is a rogue security program. Here is the removal instructions:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-eco-antivirus-2010

  If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Please be aware that not all shops are skilled at removing malware, and even if they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will have to be properly installed. If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop.

• HP laptop: HP telephone scam? Regarding the laptop computer viruses

  I just got a phone call from someone claiming to be with the HP support. On my phone caller ID showed as unknown caller. The man said that HP has determined that I got a virus in my laptop via social media.
  
  Anyone got some these calls? I'm pretty sure it's a scam, but do not want to double check. I asked the man on the phone to give me a call back number in case we were cut off. The number he gave me was 888-883 - 6944.
  
  Thank you

  Hello there @paularose,

  It has come to our attention that the person who contacted you is not with a valid HP company we know, nor the 888 number is affiliated with what be HP. Please, don't try to contact the number or give the appellant any information regarding your personal or your products. HP is aware of these false figures and it is not recommended to give them all the information.

  We apologize that you are getting these calls.

  Thank you

• Laptop HP 15-R203TX: open source of the best Anti virus

  is their any better anti open source of virus for my laptop HP 15-R203TX

  Please suggest me

  If you are looking for free antivirus programs, you might consider Free AVG or AVAST.  Both are highly rated.  I use AVG on most of my computers at home but is currently using AVAST on my main computer.  AVAST has a tendency to be a little less intrusive, it does not require reboot as often as AVG when it only updates frequently.  Lately AVG is requiring a restart, every month or more often, seems, I don't remember the last time AVAST was forcing me to restart the machine, at least, it's much less common than AVG Free.

• I got the virus Trojan on my laptop G56, AVG has tried to remove it didn't work!

  Can I get help to eliminate this #^ % $# % @$ Trojan Virus from my laptop... Help!

  Hello

  Try the following.

  On another PC, follow the procedure below to create a CD bootable, allowing you to scan your computer and if all goes well remove malware.  This utility analyzes the hard drive outside Windows and therefore has a better chance to eliminate malware.

  Windows Defender in offline mode.

  Once this done, start in Windows, then download and install the free version of MBAM and SUPERAntiSpyware on the links below.

  MBAM

  SUPERAntiSpyware

  When it is installed, perform full crawls with these two utilities - if malicious software is detected, remove/quarantine it and run the scan again until both applications are own return.

  Kind regards

• Laptop starts up. Using Windows XP. Possible virus.

  Is anyway to remove a virus from a laptop myself.  I have a Dell Latitude c510 using Windows XP.  Can not get it started. Just keep to this unknown hardward message prevented windows from start, then it counts down to 30 seconds to restart and the same thing/message happen again. D & lc = 1033 & urlnum = 0

  skee40,
  It could be the hard drive, but it could also just be that the OS was corrupted too badly to start properly.  If you have a recovery disk or the XP disk, then you can perform a repair installation, see if that fixes the problem.  If it's a recovery OEM installation of repair disk may not be an option and you may need to do a factory restore (which will erase the drive).  You should consult the manufacturer of PC on the food options they provide.

• Laptop crashes when you run the virus scan

  Whenever I run a scan for viruses from my laptop freezes to a specific file.  The file it freezes on what is c:\windows\...\atiihag.inf_31a3846f\gtiihag.inf

  McAfee advised me to contact Microsoft to find out what the file is and if it is not necessary to remove it.  I tried to run a disk cleanup, but this made no difference.  What is this file?  How can I stop my computer laptop gel so that the antivirus scan can check the rest of my files?

  seems to be a related case of ATI video card. try uninstall your drivers ATI, deleting the file, and then reinstall the ATI drivers.
