  Ignore the link of the player Shockwave that probably, you mustn't he compared to Flash player because it is barely used nowadays.

  FredMcD, you really need correct/update your clipboard for that.

  The downloadable Shockwave player version (not flashing) is 12.1.3.153 and not 15.0.0.152 as you can be confusing which version of the flashplayer reached before.

  Flash player is 15.0.0.189 and not 14.0.0.179 as you can see at https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

  Flash player is used for good Flash videos like Youtube and Flash games in Shockwave player is little used compared to Flash, for things such as games and online learning tools.

  And please, don't say "I asked. It's the way it is displayed on the site"as you said last time in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026518 , because who says little about why you're wrong ad versions and calling Shockwave player, Shockwave Flash.

  I have two Acer Aspire laptops.  They are totally frozen because of the virus.
  I lost the recovery of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition disc, where to get a replacement.
  I have to rebuild my laptop.

  Hello

  No - what are the two Acers come with a recovery disk?

  If this is not the case, one of them would have a recovery partion, which specifically is to reinstall the operating system on it.

  With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process.

  All data are lost when you do the above.

  And for the lost disc, contact Acer and ask them to send you recovery disks.

  They do that for a small fee:

  http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

• just has got rid of the virus and responsible for all the disks but given the wifi does not work

  just has got rid of the virus and responsible for all the disks but given the wifi does not work

  Hello

  Check with the system manufacturer or the actual WiFi device manufacturer and ask in their forums (if any)
  for problems known.

  Actually, try updating your driver:

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
  manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

  Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
  updated drivers.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

  Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  -

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  -

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  `

  When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

• Any help to remove the virus startnow? Im running Windows 7.

  Hello

  I am running Windows 7 and it seems that I am infected by the bug "startnow.  I get redirected to their page without asking for confirmation.  I was able to remove the program file, but it does not solve the problem.  I found a bit about it on the net, but no corrective measures.  I ran the Windows Security Scanner with no result.  Found a step by step, recommend deleting the [random] .exe in the menu of the process in the Task Manager.  I have not found any such process.

  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance

• Re: Satellite won't start because of the virus

  One of my computer got a virus and it was spent on my Toshiba Satellite laptop by a USB.

  Now when I turn on my laptop, the screen lights up, but remains empty (except the mouse).

  I tried system restore - it did not work. I had three points to restrore - and each of them said that the restoration of the system did not work properly due to a system error.

  I checked also the memory and everything - but I'm not avoiding the recovery of the system (the one where all the files will be deleted) that I desperately need to keep my files.

  What can I do to solve my problem?

  Hello

  I doubt that a virus could cause this problem
  I mean the virus can damage the operating system pre-installed, but the laptop has yet to start.
  The Toshiba recovery disc formats the entire HARD drive, and in this case the virus must be erased from the HARD disk too

  But if you are not able to reinstall the OS and are not able to start using disks bootable like Win XP, Linux or Toshiba Recovery disk so I assumed that this problem could be linked to the issue of the material and not to any viruses on your HARD drive.

  Then try to reinstall the OS and check it out!

• Laptop does not start until after the virus attack

  Last night I was browsing the web when suddenly I got a lot of warnings of viruses Microsoft arise. I immediately disconnected and then ran a full scan of the system of McAfee, but he can't find anything, so I keep the laptop. Now when I try to start it, just at the point where the wallpaper appears (but), I get the following message - "Data Execution Prevention - to help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program - converter of Cookie by Microsoft. The boot process and then stops and goes no further. I then click "close message" (which is the only option), then get a 'Cookie converter has encountered a problem and needs to close... ". "Please tell Microsoft this problem"... window. The laptop remains frozen, regardless if I click 'Send error report' or 'do not send '. My only option then must he put off, which seems to be quite normally, i.e. "Logging Off" followed by "Windows is shutting down".

  I tried booting in safe mode and also "safe mode, last known good configuration", but exactly the same thing happens every time either I can't past the error message above.

  Can anyone suggest what I can try?

  I am running Windows XP SP3 and I am up to date with all Windows updates.

  I agree with Akuma.

  In this case backup your data and use the Toshiba Recovery disk and reinstall Windows. It only takes a few minutes and not so long as trying to correct the problem.
  I think it would be the best solution because the same phenomenon occurs in safe mode and last known good configuration.

• Cannot run some programs after system restore to remove the virus

  Hello

  Toshiba my duaghter had a nasty virus that pretends to be an antivirus software product, which sneaked in, between the time his default service Norton has expired and I had the time to install Trend.

  Can not remove it using trend, so on the advice of a friend, decided to make a windows system restore to a point before the infection. It worked successfully and the virus has disappeared, but now she can't run some programs, I tried to reinstall Trend, but fails because he says you must first uninstall Norton. But I can't run Norton, or uninstall, and certain folders on C: are no longer accessible.

  I have to do a full restore of the Toshiba System (IE back tofactory settings? This seems a drastic measure, but the issue is beyond my meager knowledge of PC.

  Thank you

  Graeme

  Hey Buddy,

  Hmm... This announcement is a bit confusing... Maybe the programs you want to say were installed after the system restore point, who knows?

  In my opinion you must reset the laptop configuration that you have already written. This will restore the pre-installed Windows version where everything is working correctly and that all the drivers and tools are installed.

  Therefore, you only need the Toshiba Recovery disk and boot from it. This will restore the factory settings.

• Attack of the virus taking the average program information

  I recently had a virus and he took two icons on my desktop. He also hid my program list. When I choose to start the only half superior shows four programs. The lower part shows all. When I select "All programs" he also says "empty." The virus has asked if I would buy a software to restore the information available to me. How can I restore myself so that I have my icons back office and my programs listed under all programs?

  Hi Erle,
  Some infections of malware will hide all files and shortcuts on your computer. To make your files visible again, download display on your desktop.
  Once downloaded, double-click display and let it run. It removes the attribute hidden on all files and attempt to restore items in quick launch and Start Menu to their location.
  I hope this helps you,

• After that the virus can not connect to internet

  My computer running Windows XP has been infected by a virus 'Alert system' fake who took over the office and hide all my files. I was able to restart in safe mode, run Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials to capture and remove some viruses. I was also able to display most of my files and desktop programs. (I also tried to do a system restore, but this doesn't seem to work). However, I can not connect to the INternet using Internet Explorer. I reset IE, but I can't always connect. It seems that IE starts to open the URL, but is then blocked somehow by the virus, which redirects to the default "diagnose the problem. The cables are connected and the Internet works. What other options are bypassing them that blocking and/or resettlement of IE.

  The error you received seems to indicate that there is a need to reset Winsock.  You could try running the FixIt program contained in this article, or the manual procedure:

• I've removed "windows xp recovery" the virus from my system. But my system is not the same

  I caught the virus last Sunday. I managed to remove the virus, but all change my desktop the start option, so I'd like to restore before the virus hit my system. But when I chose the date to do a restore then click Next anything happen. Anyway to do this restore

  Hi GuyLeblanc,

  You will need to update your antivirus and run a full scan of the system in safe mode, until you see that your system has no infection found. What exactly is 'everything changed' you are not able to open all files or updated page or?

  Download a-squared malware-bytes: http://malwarebytes.org/ and run a scan.

  Once your system is virus-free, your desktop and eerything should be normal. It is likely that you are not able to open exe files open with dialog box:

  You will need to rename regedit.exe to regedit.com (my computer-> tools-> option-> view file-> remove tickmark to "Hide extension for known file types"-> ok-now right click on local disk C:\WINDOWS\ online search of regedit.exe rename regedit.com).

  Then click on Start-> Run Type &-> Regedit-> ok.

  Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command
  (you will have to press on + to achieve order)

  Now, double-click default slot right windows and then change the value in this box for '%1' % *.

  Repeat the same for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command

  Close regedit, restart your pc and check if its working.

• My Windows Xp proffesional always tells me that I have randomly appears '38 of the virus' ads and said buy Xp anti-spyware how to fix?

  These things keep popping up and saying: I have the virus randomly they restart my computer and Xp anti-spyware says I virus. It won't let me uninstall things download and save my files. It is also said that Malware is attacking my computer. He also says that my files are infected. I do not have access to the administrator, and it is "infected" it too. Also my documents all went to I don't know where they all are and I have no ideas and can not find them

  Hmm, I would recommend to go in safe mode by pressing the F8 key for the system to start. When the list appears highlight the line that says safe mode and you'll get a bunch of lines on the screen, then it will continue in safe mode. Click Yes in the box that asks if you are sure you want to enter in safe mode, and then run FixNCR.reg. You may need to right-click on the file and then select run as administrator.

  I hope this helps.
