• Windows Defender vice MS Security Essentials

  Hi all

  I would like to find some information on Windows Defender and MS Security Essentials it please.

  MS Security Essentials isn't just a spyware/malware scanner, or does it also include an AntiVirus program, it contains?

  Windows Defender is just a spyware/malware scanner, or does it also include an AntiVirus program, it contains?

  How the two programs compare to all spyware/malware scanning & Protection?

  I'm looking for a good spyware/malware scanner that offers on-demand so many Scaning & Protection in real time.
  I use Spyware Terminator but dropped it when they went to a newer version which had nagware in & used-to-peer for the updates.
  and that just kept this connection works, unless you remember to turn it off!

  I have 2 computers, one running Windows XP Pro SP2 (soon updated to SP3), with Avast AntiVirus & Comodo Firewall.
  I'm looking for a good spyware/malware scanner that offers real-time real Scaning & protection.  But I think I read that MS Security Essentials
  a AntiVirus program and it would cause problems with Avast running at the same time!

  The 2nd computer I have is a laptop with Windows 7 (X 64-bit) Home edition that is also running Avast AntiVirus & Comodo Firewall,
  It came with Windows Defender on it and I don't know if this is causing a conflict with the AvastAV program?

  Your help in this matter is greatly appreciated!

  PS: If MS Security Essentials contains an AntiVirus, how does that compare to Avast AV protection?

  Hello

  To add a bit to the excellent advice already given:

  Of course, you want excellent malware detection, however excellent system
  compatibility is just as important and many fail on the latter.

  Notice I recommend Avast or MSE and suggest adding Prevx - free that
  offers extra protection and superior detection. Prevx is designed to work along
  SIFE other antivirus/security programs.

  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 leave the file system, Web,.
  Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

  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 6.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 6.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).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  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://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y<-->

  Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
  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.

• Windows Update issues. Windows Defender can't check definition error code 0 x 80242017 - after Re Installing Windows Vista updates. ?

  After reinstalling Windows, everything works fine until it fails to install and download updates.
  After that it automatically installs updates, it shows updates that failed, I try again but then it does not download or install updates everything at all!

  -J' have a lot of updates going back to years ago, it lists the Versions updated even with another publication date, what I need to download and install all?
  I should manually, choose to install only the latest versions?

  -Windows Defender error 0 x 80242017:
  Windows Defender had always worked without any problems before re-installing.

  -J' already downloaded Microsoft Fix it: it scans and fixes a few problems, but there is always an impossible problem to fix 'recent installation updates problems'

  Also, checked if Software Licensing service work but couldn't find it under services - this could be a related issue? or is located somewhere else?

  I now use the computer and everything else seems normal.

  -little background information:
  Decided to do a re-complete installation of Windows Vista on an old computer which was the minimal use (we tried to update every month)
  Why I decided to reinstall:
  During a session to install the fix, it never moved beyond the "installation of update 1 of ' it lasted there for several hours, after losing patience I Gilles downwards and then the problems started a week later.

  I was unable to use it without problems, sometimes I would get blue screens, get stuck checking DMI disc read error, or it wouldn't start at all. Also seems to be some registry problems.

  In the end, I was able to start but I was able to browse the internet. When I opened all the files, the window came out white, but he said that the number of files it contains.  Could not even open the start menu and was unable to use the restore system and when I access it from F8 it says it is running in a limited Diagnostic State and all restore points have disappeared.

  Last good known Configuration or Check Disk doesn't help. I reinstalled after that.

  .. Although old, The Works pretty good Comp for the people here who are going to use it for their homework and light internet use as my niece when here after school.

  I'm not a Tech person that's why I posted for help here = \

  Thank you in advance, all advice appreciated!

  1. all both installed on 22/09/2014

  2. it is not available

  3. 2 or 3 hours maybe? I downloaded webroot only after that I thought I was able to install the updates that lasted a few hours.

  4 definition version: 1.185.885.0 created 22/09/2014

  What happens when you try to update Defender via the UPDATE on the update tab button (for example, another error of 0 x 80242017)?  [DOCUMENT TEST/NOW]

  When you run a manual check of updates, is an update of definitions of Defender offered as an optional update and if so, allows it to install?

  Note: A computer can become infected a few seconds of being connected to the internet without a valid antivirus application installed. It of a very good chance that you see the effects of an infection being a certain type and that demand for Webroot is not installed or working properly.

• Try to fix windows Defender...

  Try to uninstall windows Defender but it is not found inside windows unistaller, although the demand is there when I navigate on it it the windows Explorer. Also tried to use revo uninstaller the result was the same. could not find.

  If you told us what you wanted at the start, you problem would have been solved in a few seconds.
  You don't need any utility application to open the startup programs.
  And you don't need high-tech fantasies methods.
  Just use this application which is integrated as part of the operating system:

  Start > in the search box, type msconfig > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on start up tab > there is your startup programs.

  To disable a program, clear the check box in front of her.
  To re-enable a program... check the box in front of it.

• Windows Defender does not work with Microsoft Security Essentials

  I just want to confirm I'm sure I see Windows Defender listed on the site alongside the Microsoft Security Essentials in a list of items to choose from - if we choose security while we can not run the Defender is that correct? Vista runs on this toshiba that has been in place. Windows Defender is not running but essentials runs with full daily verified updates scans and other readers of both records - the concern, it is that be enough security we should do other things regarding the last blackened on computers, we have seen happening with friends and the fake software updates We have seen with the neighbors not accepting real software, they thought were updated - but in the end a fake. They were running microsoft security databases, but didn't yet these things happen - no pleasure with the laptop still being down in a different place/city. Any info would be nice to hear, clear terms, just trying to help people close to home and at a distance from time to time thanks Jen

  I'll simplify the answer...

  1 Microsoft Security Essentials has his own Defender. Running 2 defenders only create conflicts.  MSE will stop Windows Defender.

  2. no security program is sufficient for protection. Be careful, to surfing and what to download.

  3. you can install "we demand" programs such as Spybot Search Destry and Malwarebytes. They do not run until you 'open '.
  I have Avast Home Edition for "real-time" protection, and I have Spybot Search and Destroy more Malwarebytes.

• Hanging of Thunderbird 38, gel and does not question. 17 accounts pop (Win 8.1, MalwareBytes and Windows Defender)

  Since the update of Thunderbird to 38.* I had nothing but problems with Thunderbird wedging (spinning wheel waiting), a "Mozilla Thunderbird (not answer) ' in the header bar, whiting of window application out and possibly TB box in hell - a small box to appear asking if I want to - close the program, expected so he can resolve itself , or check the internet, then close. I now give the floor it the box to hell (B2H - call it all you want, but I'm cursed every time he pop up!)

  I did everything proposed here and nothing suits. I have used Thunderbird for years with all the same files and Add ons WITHOUT problem. On the first day of the 38 update everything has changed. When Mozilla realizes that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!

  Here is what I tried with nothing working...
  1. I don't have AVG, the only malware bytes and windows defender
  2. it still happens in SafeMode with no active add-on.
  3. I stopped saving function which slows down the frequency of the sinking, but did not eliminate the problem.
  4. I have deleted hundreds of older emails, thinking it was that but who have done nothing.
  5. I changed some accounts of POP at the thought of iMAP that was the problem but nothing has changed.
  6. I made several attempts to patch both Mozilla support and outdoors on the net. Nothing works. Looking at all the people who have the same problems, I have to say that the problem is handling of file. I noticed that as the issue with others who have multi files and emails. The answer is not to reduce these volumes but to understand why thunderbird managed their fine before and what has changed to make the program hang now? Who should be on your end, taken responsibility. Keep us faithful and solve the problem...

  Here are my tips...

  A. I have several files and thousands of e-mails longer and have manged fines, as matter of fact, Thunderbird has been great. Then like a good stooge I approved the moz and did my upgrade to 38. Never had a problem before the upgrade. After the upgrade, everything went to *.

  B. the 38 version upgrade was a big change. When I look in the folder that has been labeled the envoys or Inbox folder (where all emails from each account is collected), all the emails listed would disappear when I moved my mouse over them! Emails disappearing! They were there in records specific e-mail below but not but in the case of head as if it were just a day earlier and with the upgrade. I thought that as an addition on the question and waited for the difficulty that happened not so long ago. Again, which could be a problem of record add-on.

  C. the upgrade to 38 were other issues, but if the madness going no problem was not bad enough, the problem seems to be growing with each ' update or bugfix that followed. Don't hold me to it but I think it was in 38.1.2 or 8 (I think that's it. I wasn't paying attention, but if I had known that I would have to tell it, I will!) That's when hanging interminably long. When the program closed at least I got a project saved, then I read on line that the problem was the registration of open messages, I turned the auto reduction. He did change the frequency of the hanging (white screen pause) and timing (where the B2H appears), but he was always there and always!

  D. I had hoped with 38.2 there will be improvements. Nothing has changed. I didn't know that 38.3 would make this change/fix, but it's not. If I write all this, so you have what I know as a loyal user since 2007.

  E. here is what you need to complete the picture. I'm on a PC running 8.1. on an Intel i7-4770, with 32 GB of ram, now you tell me when you will issue the update to fix the problem! Once again, Mozilla, I suggest you start by looking at how TB 38 manages several emails, files and archives. Not all of us have only one e-mail account. Most of us have been really happy with TB before 38. If you can't find the question, can you show us how to get back to a version prior to 38?

  Thanks for listening and hope that helps!

  Thunderbird is compatible with Windows 10. Defender problems are exactly that. Something that Microsoft needs to fix.

  Regarding a malicious attachments go. What of them?

  Before they can do any harm, they must be transformed into a binary file in the text, they are converted to attach them to the message and then be written in the Temp folder so they can be passed to the operating system with an application for opening of their. An antivirus program that cannot detect the payload of a newly written file and keep it opens is not worth the CPU cycles which is uses for to fail in its primary function. Defender claims to do this. If it isn't, still an issue for Microsoft. Now Thunderbird...

• Windows Defender alerts to send firefox.exe to microsoft after upgrade to 16.0.2

  Windows Defender has posted a message in the center of maintenance of Windows with a title "review the files that Windows Defender will send to Microsoft (Important).

  It shows a popup message that informs that Windows Defender should do a presentation type of following files:
  "Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe".
  "Mozilla Firefox\plugin - container.exe.

  This happens in my desktop PC (Win 7 x 64 Ultimate SP1) and in my computer laptop (Windows 7 SP1 for x 64 homepage), the difference being that in the case of the laptop computer, an additional file should be reported i.e. "Mozilla Maintenace Service\maintenanceservice_tmp.exe.

  Hello shadownate, I think it's a normal process when you are a Member of CARDS (Service of Protection of Microsoft Active) and chose to communicate information about the unknown applications. where microsoft defender is supplied in a version of the application that does not appear in the ms database ' again (which might well be the case for firefox executable immediately after an update), they download the file and analyze it - that's how they collect new information to create signatures from unknown threats. Plugin - container.exe & maintenanceservice.exe are part of firefox and don't pose a risk to your system.

• Satellite L655 - Windows Defender presents Kaspersky firewall as turned off

  With active Kaspersky, does anyone know why the Defender shows firewall Kaspersky Internet Security Inc. as off?

  Apart from turning notifications off the coast, try to activate Kaspersky via Windows Defender is not possible.

  Hey,.

  Hmm as far as I know only security software must be running. This means that if you installed Kaspersky Security software you must disable Windows Defender completely. Some security software publishers recommend it.

  Don't worry: security software just so that you can disable Windows Defender.

  Alternative request in the Kaspersky forum to get help. I think that this question has nothing to do with Toshiba ;)
