Windows 7 Action Center indicates that Windows and McAfee Antivirus & Firewall are both disabled.

Original title: Jlj1952

My Windows 7 Action Center indicates that Windows and McAfee Antivirus & Firewall are both disabled. McAfee analysis shows that everything works. Looking @ my control panel shows Microsoft Firewall is enabled. Can someone tell me why I started getting these messages that no protection exists? Thank you.

Kind regards

James

Hi James,

1 did you change on your computer?
2. do you get an error message?

This problem could be related to Mcafee. Please temporarily disable Mcafee and check.

Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

If the problem does not persist, then there are certainly problems with Mcafee protection. In this case, please contact Mcafee support for assistance.

Just reply with the results.

Thank you

  • The access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" are not secure

    Hey there
    Had a minor shock after I discovered that the access permissions default to the "limited users" in "C:\Windows\" and "C:\Program files\" are raised by the image automatically XP - Pro installed on my Tecra A6.

    Default access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" for "A limited number of users" should not have permissions "File/writing data Creation" or "Creation of folders/adding data. This opens up for what is called dll redirection attacks (ref: http://blogs.msdn.com/aaron_margosis/)

    When you install a Win XP a normal retail or OEM Windows XP cd these two folders are special protected by this measure (not allowing the permissions listed for limited users). Installation procedure of your image work it around (in established Microsoft) measure and open breaches in security.

    Now I have to drop all these permissions and hope that all of the utilities of your work for limited users after that that, otherwise you get a very unhappy customer on your hands. ;)

    Hi Henrik

    Thanks for the information. I have a common user of Toshiba and I have never heard of such attacks to redirect m .dll.
    However, I think that if each user install antivirus software (nothing unusual at the time; everyone should use) and activate the Microsoft Windows updates and OS firewall should be safe.

    Greetings :D

    PS: I read in this forum that sometimes some Toshiba applications as energy saving does not work under limited account.

  • Action Center said that my spyware and antivirus protection is disabled.

    Hello

    I am currently using the 32-bit version of Windows 7 and I am currently using AVG Internet Security 2014 as my antivirus. Today, when I started my computer, the center of the action arises with 3 important messages. It is said that my spyware, antivirus and Firewall network are all off. Yet, when I open AVG 2014 it is said that it is up to date and I am fully protected. How to solve this problem? I click on the option 'Enable' in the center of maintenance for all 3 options and nothing has changed.

    Side note: I perform a system restore yesterday after my computer blue screened after installing new graphics drivers.

    It's probably windows has just been windows.

    HHM. If I wrote my own virus scanner and Windows does not recognize it, should I demand that Microsoft gets its act in order, or is it my responsibility to fix my code?

  • Opening browser indicates that master and all versions: how to go back to the list only one version?

    Opening 3.6: in some way something changed: in the browser, I see now several versions of each image (master & version), how to get back to showing only latest version? (Note: I don't want close chimneys, just not to show them)

    You have recently allowed the preference of the opening > advanced: create new versions adjustments?

    The opening will create a new version whenever you adjust your image.  With this preference is disabled, all changes will be stacked on the current version without creating new versions.

    You can stack the new versions automatically if you use "opening > General > stacking new versions automatically.

    But there is no option to avoid the multiple versions of a photo in the browser, as far as I know, so the battery version is open.  You can stack several version and keep the closed stack or refrain from creating new versions for each change.

  • "sent" messages and those being edited are both blue. Easy to forget what mode you are, and sprays to remove a file sent, what should not be so easy.

    The background is blue for the mails in the "sent" folder and for a letter that is being edited (with "write", or "response"). The problem: it's really, really easy to forget which mode you are, to start to edit, remove a character and zzzp! "sent" all mail went into the record and cannot be found in the trash or anywhere else, unless I'm going with Outlook (webmail) and send it carefully for it again myself, and even do it once I lost it completely.
    Obvious solution: "pay attention to what you're doing." Of course, but I had this problem so often, I know that I am of course not alone.
    My point of view: CHANGE background BLUE in the folder 'sent' AS WELL as 'Inbox' and all THE OTHER FOLDERS, so that we KNOW (from the colour) what mode we are (read-only or change) no matter where our brain is. I see no benefit for the blue in the "sent" folder The functions are identical to those in other folders.
    Another solution: change the impact of a 'delete' when, in the body of an email in the folder "sent". Surely a more complex solution.

    menu icon > Options > Options it will show you the corresponding window.
