• What Antivirus/Antimalware/Antispyware choose?

  Hi all

  Recently, a pop-up Mac guard or something like that appears when loading on a streaming site. It was not possible to close the window without clicking 'OK', which allows the software to do a scan on my Mac. Normally, I think that nothing had been installed on my Macbook but I can't be sure of himself... So, I wanted to know if I had to install an antivirus/antispyware/antimalware pack to carry out an analysis on both my Macbook and my safe use? And who?

  Have a good evening,

  Thank you

  François

  It's a scam. Nothing has been downloaded or installed on your Mac.

• Need to find the right Antivirus software

  Hi team,

  I have a confusion on what Antivirus software to decide as there seems to be many providers of AV on the Internet. My basic use of the pc would be mainly multimedia (movies and games) and navigation. It is why would you suggest me a VA that is also inexpensive and effective in action. In addition, I had set to zero on Norton and Avast. History says that Norton consumes a lot of system resources that makes the slow system performance. Please specify on the same.

  Thank you

  Hello

  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).

  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://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  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.

  I hope this helps.

  For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
  to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (are not
  run several) of the following three:
   
  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials
   
  You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
  install MalwareBytes AntiMalware (freeware).

  1. try SR in safe 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...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  2 Malware will stop at the system restore:

  If necessary, do all the work Safe Mode with network.

   

  To get into Safe Mode with network, press F8 at the Power On / boot and use key arrow upward to get into SafeMode with networking from the list of options, and then press ENTER.

• Sometimes, like now, my antivirus software fails to start when I turn on my computer. What should I do?

  Windows security alerts. The small red sign in the lower right corner of my monitor tells me that my computer is not protected against viruses. The only way to make it work again is to restart my computer, but this time even that did not work. Windows Security Center does not help because he advises me just to get an anti virus that works, which is what I thought I had.

  Hi JohnMadner,

  ·         What security software do you use?

  ·         What is the exact error message?

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  I suggest you to install Microsoft Security Essentials and check if the problem persists.

• No longer connect to the internet after you uninstall antivirus software

  Hello

  Please forgive me if there is a simple solution to this problem. I have already undertaken some research and various attempts to correct them accordingly in vain.

  System: Windows 7 64-bit

  Problem - no more have the internet connection after you uninstall antivirus software

  the story so far: yesterday I uninstalled VIPRE Internet Security 2014 as suggested on their guys to support online so I could upgrade to the latest version (2015).

  After uninstalling and restarting, small notification of connection there was an error in this regard. When you look at the map, it linked the wireless modem, but there was a red cross between it and the symbol of the world of the internet.

  I tried another public network and tried to use my phone as a hotspot and still the same result.

  System Restore does not work.

  I defragged and cleaned up.

  I downloaded a program called Vipre rescue to find the virus.

  I tried with windows on and outside firewall.

  I installed a full copy of 2015 AVG (free) and still no luck.

  I tried a flush.bat file (easily on another where I read that someone had the same problem).

  Any help would be most welcome!

  Thanks for getting back to me.

  I dropped last week and held a store of the local computer. I just returned it today. Guys said they had 'fun' with her. Which means it took a lot of time for them to trouble. Apparently there had been some severe or ciritcal crashes who think could have been partly to blame.

• When you choose a webcam for use with host character, should what features I look for?

  When you choose a webcam for use with host character, should what features I look for in the webcam? For example, choose the one that captures full HD (1080 p)? Or any webcam will work? I just want to be able to make the motion capture process as easy as possible, so I think I must look over the webcam plug before you buy.

  Any webcam should work, but a higher resolution can improve the accuracy of tracking. Adequate/same lighting on your face is too important.

• What material you choose for a new server

  Hello everyone.

  I intend to set up a new server at home, mainly for use with ESXi 4, but perhaps also use it (with a different, without the use of ESXi HARD disk) as video occasional treatment / game machine.

  My main concern at the moment is the part of the equation ESXi. The plan is to have no more than 10 virtual machines running simultaneously (a mixture of servers windows and linux workstations, windows) for development and testing. I'm not under a Bank, so it is not crucial for the system until 24 x 7, but I need a fast and reliable system to work with (as inexpensive as possible though). I searched around for the material, but I must say that I am a bit confused. I am open to proposals from scratch, but here's what I've found so far and the questions I have.

  1. a single i5 or i7 processor will be enough? How many virtual machines an i7 CPU can manage without the feeling that you are using a 1st generation Pentium? I don't know of virtual machines running large databases and development tools (Visual Studio mainly). It would be best to use a double connector MB Xeon or it's too? My choice would be something between i7 - 930 and dual Xeon 5520 or 5620. Also, I would be able to cover future needs (i.e. it would be nice to not throw the entire system 5 years from now, for having been too slow).

  2. I think using a dedicated raid controller (specifically Adaptec RAID 5805) but with SATA disks (4x1TB in RAID50) or maybe 6x1TB in RAID60. It would be a good solution (in speed)? Should I start looking for solutions SAS?

  As you can imagine, the cost of all these components is a little high then if I have to make this move, I want to be as sure as possible that I have I don't get too small for my needs, but also that I have I don't get too. As I said before, I'm open to any suggestion.

  Thanks for any comment on this case.

  Relative to the CPU, it depends on your loads of comments.  But with SATA RAID, the bottleneck is much more likely to be there IMO.

  FWIW, two quad-core Nehalem servers are sometimes "nominal" to 30 virtual machines, but without knowing the charge is pure speculation.

  If you are looking to deploy 1 vCPU customer, a unique quad will most likely very well.  Using vSMP translates into more physical cores (or at least hyperthreading) being necessary to avoid CPU scheduling delays.

  Re disc - Yes each LUN has a maximum size of (2 TB - 512 bytes).  You can create a very large data warehouses using extensions (or simply use several data warehouses), but the underlying storage MUST be able to present the LUN meets the criteria of 2 TB.  While most of the RAID controllers will provide more than one set of RAID-5 LUN, a lot will not be permitted RAID-10 to split, where my comment.  Of course, you should check the documentation for any controller you choose on this point, but it's something to know.

• How can I avoid firefox reset my browser preferences when my antivirus software scans my computer

  Starting on 19/02/2013 every time that my antivirus software scans my computer (per day), various Firefox browser preferences are being reset. (It seems that Firefox can be reset to the default value.) My home page is reset to mozilla etc...

  I have reset Firefox, un-installed and re-installed Firefox to no avail.
  Each time the computer is scanned my browser preferences are lost.
  

  The following information system:
  Windows 7 pro 64-bit
  AVG antivirus 2013 current build.

  Firefox v19.
  

  I don't remember anyone to another report that AVG has done this. In fact, it would be useful to know exactly what did AVG. Your home page is stored in a file named prefs.js in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). It deletes this file? Replacement of a 'clean' copy it right? He characterizes the read-only file so that your changes are not saved between sessions?

  Could you make a backup copy of your profile folder if you have around comparison after running the analysis? You will need to store on a USB key and it is not be analyzed, too.

  To access this folder, you can use

  Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

  Navigate from one level to Ctrl + drag the folder to the destination of the copy.

  Where can I find my antivirus software

  Unless you have installed one, there are none on the Mac.

  This is the way it should be. Since they offer no extra protection and only cause problems.

  What do you think that you must program AV? What kind of problems are you having?
