    MSE is all that you need to protect you from antimalware.  The definition files are updated approximately every 24 hours, and it does a great job to protect you.  NO anti-malware product you will protect against threats KNOWN of ALL.  And by running several products is probably not provide you more protection and will likely impact of the performance of your machine.  At the very least, several products require more administration and support.

  • Avast free with comodo firewall - READ-

    I read that these two running together will cause no conflict as long as you clear the sandbox in Avast and comodo firewall but my main question is which is the best way to install
    First avast then restart then Comodo firewall or vice versa any help would be thank you very much.

    Hello

    Frankly I run Avast and forget about Comodo or any firewall left 3rd. Use of the Windows Firewall
    that is extremely effective. Most routers today also have a built-in firewall hardware that works
    Well well with Windows Firewall software.

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

    Low-cost 3rd part firewall software are quite a lot of problems delayed. They all have
    compatibility, issues and offer only a few improved controls. In fact their problems often actually lower
    the overall security instead of laying. The Windows Firewall has no problem of compatibility and is
    extremely safe, if you know enough to work around most of the hype. Cost of firewalls software quality
    thousands. Most routers have hardware firewalls built in and those are much better additions
    for the money than any firewall at low prices and low-cost software.

  • Conflicts with native Firewall VPN

    I use OS X El Capitan 10.11.4

    I have subscribed to a VPN connection provided by PIA (private Internet access) and noticed that the client VPN of PIA disables native firewall protection for OS X El Capitan.  This isn't really a concern as long as the duration of the VPN connection and the computer is protected via the VPN and its own firewall.  However, when the VPN connection drops and I'm not around to immediately re-engage the OS X Firewall, there is a period of time when the computer is not protected by a firewall.  Support to PIA could not provide me with a conclusive answer to this subject, and it seems unsure as to if there is a viable solution to this any time soon.

    First question: is there a work around to avoid the defusing of the OS X Firewall?

    Second question: is there a way to force an instant VPN reconnect as soon as the VPN connection is lost?

    Hello dubwisedude,

    Don't worry the Firewall of OS X. It's a waste of time. If you are concerned about these things, don't turn on all sharing services. Firewalls is misunderstood. They are tools for network administrators. They don't have much use for end users. The Application OS X Firewall is particularly useless. Its default behavior is to allow about anything, sometimes without tell you about it.

  • Is what level of protection against shock disc in Portege R830

    People,

    I work in an area where there are a lot of people who wear their laptop Portege (especially the R830) autour while they are still on - mainly well they are switching from a desktop to the meeting etc. rooms and often their transport on an angle. I feel a bit silly because I insist on the mine to sleep before she started.

    What level of protection against shock disc is there in these laptops? Am I paranoid or everyone of inviting disaster?

    Thank you

    Yokki

    Hello

    First of all its not really good for the drive if the laptop would be inappropriate while the HARD drive is used in this case head read/write from the disk HARD would be hit while holders along but there is a software called Toshiba HDD protection using a sensor built into the laptop. HARD drive protection detects the vibrations and shocks and HARD drive head moves automatically in a safe position to reduce the risk of damage caused by the head in contact with disc.

  • What is the problem with kernel_task?

    Hello everyone,

    What is the problem with kernel_task?

    I explan: Macbook Pro early 2011 LION OS up to date.

    I bought 8 GB on China supplier, CRUCIAL...

    Well, I got a lot of kernel Panic. Usually, he is involved material, taken on my RAM, back is the original, so still have in the kernel_task to 300% CPU monitoring followed up to 500%...

    Well, I went back to a clean install, a manufacturing one, with nothing.

    Wish I 'd' diagnosis of the equipment, never went on, test it on safe mode, disable all extensions, then nothing:

    Sometimes the kernel_task crazy sometimes not...

    Good read a lot on the internet but nothing has worked... I went to the Apple store in DIJON, they do not have diag any hardware problem, and all my App are approved Apple.

    Used to play the eve online thought, therefore, the graphic chipset pourrait was damaged, so when it's too 'hot' the mac gets crazy... but I expected crazy restarts and that sort of thing.

    I bought a manual, there is no french support to the opening of Apple, but found nothing about my question.

    So what?

    I bought something conivient on Support and friability so today he's dead?

    What should do?

    If you still get the panic of the core, thanks to post separate 2 or 3 of the most recent as answers on this.

    Reports of kernel panic: "/ Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports".

    http://support.Apple.com/kb/ht2546>

    http://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT200553>

    The panic report should have "panic" in the name of the file.

    Kernel panics tend to come from 2 sources

    • Material:
      • 3rd party RAM is the most common.  Replace or return the original is usually the solution.  Crucial and MacSales.com were 2 of the most reliable sellers for the initial quality and guest without question of replacement.
      • Broken USB cables or USB devices have turned up as the 2nd most likely material number.  Usually remove all USB devices, or replace the keyboard and USB mouse to see if it's one of those existing.
      • There are a few Macs with graphics chips that have failed.  I don't know that they exist, but do not know what model Mac had these chips.
    • Software
      • antivirus protection.  It is the number 1 most panicked related software cause.  More OS X does not need antivirus, because it has its own built-in protections http://www.thesafemac.com/mmg-builtin/>.
      • Other core 3rd party extensions are a distant 2nd.
      • NOTE: not all 3rd party kernel extensions are causing problems, but when there is a kernel panic, it's the first thing to look at.

    If run kernel_task is often caused by core 3rd party extensions.  It can be caused by an application program, but then the Applications-> Utilities-> Activity Monitor show "As" an application that consumes a lot of CPU, disk IO and network IO in collaboration with the kernel_task using lots of CPU.  If there is no application burns the CPU at the same time, so it is almost always a 3rd special part of the kernel that was originally the use excessive CPU kernel_task.

    Start in safe mode is usually a test to see if 3rd party extensions are part of the case.  But in safe mode is not how you run your system, because it also loads less advanced graphics drivers and other components.  Safe mode is very conservative, but it's a great way to see if the 3rd party software is at fault and have started when 3rd party software panic the system at boot.

    The contributors to the forum long strongly warn against getting 3rd party anti-virus, cleaners Mac and additions increasing.  This class of 3rd party additions have shown time and time again to really harm performance, remove things they shouldn't and cause a kernel panic.  Especially right after an OS X update to a new version.

  • What I do to my Windows Firewall automatically resets.

    When you try to set up the rules of traffic outgoing/incoming, it appears for awhile until I refresh it and it disappears. Whenever I have the program such as Skype, I have to 'Allow' the program starting the program. However, whenever I restart my computer, I'll have to do the same thing. Programs such as Skype, steam and reflector are programs that need me to be invited. Even turn off my firewall does not work as it will just automatically. Doesn't seem to be a virus, because all it does is annoying me but not really putting myself in danger. I checked my inbound and outbound rules, but it seems that it is just all the default rules as if a reset button is being spammed. I know that a BSOD's happened. I don't really know if it's happened before or after but the BSODS happened when I was watching YouTube but it was a strange BSOD. After dumping all of the physical memory, an error came up saying that the dump file was too small and he was creating a substitute? I waited the BSOD at the end in itself, as usual, but this time he doesn't not so I just forced a reboot and it seemed well thereafter. If anyone of you need a journal, tell me where to find it, but this seems more like a registry problem for me. I'm not good with computers, but I'm not so bad. Oh and if after all this if you did not... I need help please. Thank you :D

    Notes:

    -I don't remember what I did before this problem occurred

    -J' already ran a scan SFC (no result)

    -Run Malwarebytes (no result)

    -Tried to restart my computer (obviously)

    -J' tried Googling autour

    Hi Winston,

  • What is a Protection Group in fast food?

    What is a protection group? After the addition of an agent for the basic protection, why again, we need to configure a protection group and to add each volume in the protection group? Can we take backup of a single volume without adding it to the protection group.

    Hi akhilms:

    A protection group is a list of volumes that are backed up at the same time.

    For example, you have a server protected with C:, D: and E:. C: and D: are rather small and E: is really very important. It makes sense to backup C: and D: and E: separately set.  To do this, you enter different values in the planning for backup (for example, C: and D: E: every 2 hours and hours).

    The result is that two groups have been created in the background. Group 0 which includes C: and D:, and group 1 which includes E:

    In the graphical interface, you may notice a thicker line between the two.

    in the registry, if you access HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AppRecovery\Core\Agents\\AgentProtectionConfiguration\ProtectionGroups

    you will notice that you have the associations for the protection of 0 and 1

  • What is the problem with my iMac mid-2011

    Hello

    Need help find out what is the problem with my iMac to mid-2011.

    Yesterday during a reboot it just never came to life.

    On turning the power on, I get the RINGTONE to start and that's it. The screen is totally black. Nothing behind tried with a torch.

    VRAM rearmament so far I tried repeatedly, unplug and plug, all kinds of combinations of keys in the carillon and nothing.

    Connected to an external monitor and shows nothing of too - no signal.

    Any way that I can know what is wrong with it before sending it to the service tech? I suspect bad graphics card but how do you ensure?

    From what you describe, it looks like a hardware issue that Apple will only be able to resolve, but not to despair immediately.

    Read it please get help with graphics issues on external displays connected to your Mac - Apple Support.

    I know that the title and subject are not suitable to your concern, but buried in this document is the following passage that contains three links describing the steps to follow.

    If you can not change the resolution of your screen because you see no image, restart your Mac in safe mode to reset the default display resolution.

    If booting safe mode doesn't resolve the problem, reset your Mac NVRAM and SMC to reset the video ports on your Mac to their default values.

    That first, then write again for additional suggestions if you are still having problems.
