• Only https links work. Never installed security software. Never messed with the settings of internet connection. Refreshed Firefox. No joy.

  Firefox worked like a dream for as long as I got - until two days ago.
  It suddenly stopped linking to http sites. Still works for https sites, however.
  This problem does not exist in Safari (but I prefer Firefox!).

  Some dig and can already tell you that:
  (1) no additional security software have been installed.
  (2) no changes were made to internet connection settings.
  (3) connection Wifi is strong and fully functional (as it has always been)

  I followed the procedure of "Refresh" recommended on this forum - still no luck.
  I am the only person working on the two devices listed below.

  Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
  Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
  All of these programs have free versions.

  Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

• What is the best app/security software on a Mac?

  I have a MacBook Air (2015) and I was wondering what my options are, as far as security.  I want something that will take a photo using the iSight camera if a wrong password is entered in trying to connect to my MacBook and will send an alert on my phone?  I've seen a lot of options with Android phones, some have even alerts that give you a GPS telling you where your device, if stolen, would be, but I don't have an android phone...  So does anyone have any suggestions on software like this, or any other type of security software? Preference on the Mac App Store, but is the software is reliable I would consider buying it online or in a store.  Thank you!!

  Two points:

  1. I do not recommend "suites" of the software, be it security software or another type.  You must choose the best of each type, regardless of who makes it. The company makes the best type prgram A doesn't mean that it's also the best type b.

  2. for an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you are willing to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (do not run more than one) of the following three:
   
  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials
   
  You also need anti-spyware software (even if you run a program like Microsoft Security Essentials, with anti-spyware feature integrated into it). I recommend that you download and install MalwareBytes AntiMalware (freeware)

  About a firewall, the built-in Windows Firewall is very good, and there is no reason to replace it by a third party.

• Impossible to install security software 1603,0, 0 x 000 errors

  For the last 3 weeks I tried to install Trend Micro Internet Security software. Initially the 1603 error is out of my attempt to upgrade my version 3.51 to the latest version 5. Software Trend Micro uninstalled my old version then threw a 1603 error when you try to install the latest version. I tried this site and had a broad Trend Micro remote support. The last attempt to remedy the situation failed after 2 1/2 hours of support away from the Hungary and about 5 trying to clean my registry windows and re install my deep security software. Their developers (Tren Micro) came to the conclusion that the fault lies with the installer of windows on my pc. Even if I ran sfc/scannow and no error was detected, I can't get any software security at all to install not only Trend Micro.

  As I mentioned briefly earlier that I did everything what to do in what concerns the cleanup of registry entries and temporary directories that is the first step to try to resolve these problems

  I need options. Windows reports under its security suite that Trend Micro is installed, but not in a format it recognizes. This is misleading and does not allow me to make one installs clean

  Any ideas?

  This is just to inform everyone that this problem has been resolved. Extended support Trend Micro resolved after suspending system restore facilities which I think affected the file access permissions. My security software is now installed, updated and working properly

• My wireless home does not appear on as a network available on my work laptop and always did before.

  My wireless home does not appear on as a network available on my work laptop and always did before.  He brings up and connect on my laptop. I have a Linksys broadband router - summer use it for at least two years with no problems until this.  I know that my wireless works on my laptop because there is an unsecured network listed in the available window.

  A really strange thing that happened two weeks ago (and I don't know if it's related) was my personal laptop was fine during several hours - then he kept abandonment of the internet connection.  I couldn't keep him connected - reboot etc didn't work.  I've not logged again until today - and that's what I use now.  He connected very well today.

  My work laptop had been connected to my wireless ealier in the week, but when I tried to connect as usual Thursday night he has not logged automatically as it has always done in the past.  Nothing has changed.  Security patches that my company had sent through this week have not downloaded until after that I tried to connect and couldn't.  There is nothing new - he had no reason to think I should not have automatically connected as I have in the past.

  Hi suemoo,
   
  -What version of service pack of Windows XP you are using?
   
  This problem occurs because the media connect action is not sent to the wireless service correctly.
   
  Method 1: Disable and then enable the wireless network adapter and check if it helps fix the problem.
  To do this, follow these steps:
  a. start the network connections tool in Control Panel. Click Start, click Control Panel, click on network connections and Internetand then click on network connections.

  b. right click on wireless network connectionand then click disable.

  c. right click on wireless network connectionand then click enable.

  Method 2: Try the methods listed in the following article and check, if it helps in fixing the issue:

  Norton internet security becomes awkward

  Peter

  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.

• Confusion about this internet security software is necessary

  I'm getting cofused on how internet security, antivirus software, I should have on my computers.

  I have a desktop computer XPS 420 new with 4 GB memory and 750 GB hard drive and a laptop Inspiron 6000 with 1 GB of memory and 60 GB hard drive.  They are currently networked via a Netgear WNDR3300 wireless router.  My HP C6280 printer is connected to the network.  The new '' runs under Windows VISTA SP1 and the laptop, Windows XP PRO SP2.

  I'm trying to get my software installed on the new office.  For years I used the Norton Antivirus software, and then more recently the Norton Internet Security software.  But when I got the installation of the network, it Norton is in contradiction with the old rounter Netgear WGT624V3-, on the recommendation of the technician fixing the system, so I started using Trend Micro Internet Security.  That worked fine until I upgraded to Trend Micro Internet Security PRO 2008, and it took so much of my computer's resources (especially my old Dell Dimension 8250) runs.  Also, with the old Netgear router, I had to disable the internet as security options was a conflict.  So I experimented on the laptop with a free version of AVAST and Ad-Aware SE Plus.  These two worked together pretty well, and I had all decided to replace the Trend Micro software on the old desktop until I finally decided to buy the new computer.

  Now, I'm in a quandry again.  With the Netgear WNDR3300 router, I have their security WPA - PSK, put in place.  My VISTA Dell supplied with Windows Defender.  Tonight, I tried to install Trend Micro Internet Security PRO 2008 but was told by VISTA that Trend Micro is not compatible with my version of the operating system.   I asked the population of Netgear if I still needed to install software of internet security in addition to the protection in view of their security options AVAST antivirus software and told me I should.  Currently, I have only the AVAST Home edition on the new office.

  What are some of your recommendations? I'd go back to Norton?  Is Windows Defender and AVAST with the Netgear security option enough? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

  
  

• is to have sufficient protection so much as my one and only security software Microsoft Security Essentials

  l download Microsoft Security Essentials for my windows 7 but later unintentionally downloaded McAfee Security scan plus.

  is there a conflict? should I just uninstall it, therefore less heavy for my pc?
  Thanks in advance

  Don't know why this link does not work... McAfee must have fired or their FAQ is under review.

  The Development should work... and you can uninstall/remove the application after that you are through using it.

  Here are a few suggestions of Stephen Boots, moderator of the MSE Forum about fake antivirus programs and prevention measures General malware:

  Unfortunately, this type of malware attacks are difficult to follow because they fool you by letting them install. They usually come to an infected web site and usually an advertisement. You get a pop up of infection and click on it to close the window pop up that allows you to install infection.  They can also be provided in a "drive-by" mode without any action required by the user due to the system being unpatched, any security software is running.

  When you encounter one of these fake virus pop - up during navigation, immediately do the following:

  -Do not touch any window of browser to close or navigate away.
  -Immediately, press Ctrl-Shift-Esc and bring up the Task Manager and end by force all instances of iexplore.exe, if you use Internet Explorer, or the executable for the browser you are using.
  -or-
  -Go to start/stop and reboot the PC without touching the browser windows.
  -If you used the Task Manager to close the browser instances, restart the machine.
  -Then go in the Internet/Panel control Options and delete all temporary Internet files and cookies. If you use another browser, open the browser settings to do the same - to delete the local cached files and cookies.
  -Perform a full scan with your anti-malware program.

  The steps above should prevent infection taking root.

  In addition to using an anti-malware program, the following recommendations will help to protect the PC from infection:

  S ' ensure that the Windows Firewall is enabled.

  S ' ensure that all critical updates or important, including service packs for the operating system and programs are installed from Microsoft Update (Windows Update).

  -Make sure that Internet Explorer is version 8 or higher and put up-to-date with all the patches.

  -In Internet Explorer 8 or 9, use the SmartScreen filter.

  -Make sure that the Internet IE security settings are at least put to fire medium-high (default).

  -Turn on the pop-up blocker in Internet Explorer.

  -On Vista and Windows 7 make sure that thatUser Account Control (UAC) and doesn't work with elevated privileges.

  -Make sure that automatic updates of Windows are set to notify at least, but the preferred setting is to download and install automatically. If you update manually, be sure to update as soon as possible after being informed of updates available.

  -Make sure that installed applications, including Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Flash and Java are at their latest versions. Many vendors are regularly updated and fixes security vulnerabilities.

  -Never click through links from unknown sources and be careful, even if they are from a "reliable".

  -Do not open attachments in unsolicited e-mail.

  Good luck...

• Is a security software that I can use to protect against malware?

  Is a security software, I can use on my IMac?  I've already gotten ransomware once.  I'm very careful, but I have a couple of hobbies that I use a lot of pinterest downloads (no illegal downloads not!) and I get very nervous with all the new ransomware.  Thank you!

  Your brain is the best. No software protection must be used, because they are unfavourable to the own software.

  You can however use a tool when you think you are infected: AdwareMedic: http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php

  You can also use the following extension in Safari: Scamzapper: http://scamzapper.apponic.com/mac/

  But it's always your own common sense which works best.
