  • McAfee Security Scan more and Trend Micro Security Conflict?

    I have Trend Micro security on my windows vista PC Dell.  A few months ago, I noticed that I also have McAfee Security Scan Plus wants to periodically scan my PC.  I didn't ask to install McAfee security Scan Plus, so I don't know where it comes from.  I wonder if it is not authentic, as well as the way in which it on my PC.  Do I have to get rid of him, and if yes, how do I do that?

    Sometimes the PC manufactures such as Dell will put a free demo of product antivirus PC or laptop that sell them. These anti-virus would expire after the trial and you could buy it or uninstall it.

    If you have Trend Micro, you could go into Control Panel, add/remove programs and uninstall McAfee.

  • Windows not recognizing the Trend Micro firewall.

    My Windows Firewall status is "not monitored". My Trend Micro firewall is enabled. Recently I changed the State of my Windows Firewall from "Off" to "Not monitored" so I would not get a Windows security alert noting that my firewall is disabled. My question: Trend Micro says that Windows recognizes the Trend Micro firewall that is on and then start to monitor, rather than its own firewall. Why Windows not recognize is not the firewall of Trend Micro and so not monitoring in the Windows Security Center? (Yes, I'm 100% sure that my Trend Micro firewall is running, I even went through the process of uninstalling, then put it back in order to ensure with the trend on the live chat)

    Also try to update your Windows and install the latest service pack and update of trend, if the problem has NOT resolved trend contact technical support or visit their support site

  • If I have my laptop, is why Windows Defender turned off because of group policy?... What is group policy?

    At the heart of the problem is this business of permissions.  Why solo owners of laptops not affiliated with companies or other computers must be prey to group policy and permissions at every turn.  I tried to turn off the UAC and I couldn't find even a file for group policy, and again I am forbidden to use Windows Defender because of this error message.  Only recently have I won control of most of my files and folders by disabling UAC and passing by claiming ownership of my own software and files.  I guess I really two questions: (1) how can I get rid of this feature to administer unnecessary and, as in the good old days, before Vista came, just use my computer without messages such as "you don't have permission to use this...» "and (2) my second question which dovetailed in the the first is" why the hell did I this stupid message from group policy?  There is no groups affiliated with my Compaq Presario, and in fact, it is not a group on my system folder in the first Subscriber.  I'm not very impressed with Vista or Windows Defender.  I could even ignore these problems, but there is a principle here.  I've read enough Articles to understand that I'm not the only person facing this nonsense!

    You cannot change how permissions work under Vista.  The administrator has certain rights and access; However, even for administrators, several parts of the system do not have access (because they are points of junction to towards the rear compatabiility and must not be changed or your programs do not work or because they are system files, you do not make changes.)  Despite this, some of these areas can still be accessed at your own risk - you may do something that can repair only a clean install), I provided the following information about permissions and ownership (which can help you navigate the system correctly and without causing any damage).

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    =======================================================================================================================

    Regarding Windows Defender the most likely reason it is disabled because you have installed an AV or security suite program that does so automatically during its installation (and it was probably necessary for the new software works correctly without causing any problem).  What AV or Security Suite program do you use?

    Regarding group policy, if you wanted to access it go to start / search box and type gpedit.msc and enter and then double-click on the program that appears in the search results.  These AV programs and security can use Group Policy to disable Windows Defender (I don't know how they do it), but it may be there somewhere).  Because re-activate NOT Windows Defender while the other this software is still installed on your system that could cause some conflixts, freezes, crrashes, corrupt and data files and all kinds other problems - it has been disabled for some reason.

    If you want to use Windows Defender, then choose a program or AV security suite which does not disable the Defender during the installation.

  • Windows Defender turns itself off

    Windows defender im says that is enabled by default, when I got my computer, it has been transformed, when I turn the Defender, after a random time I find her turned himself back

    just to update you, the Defender has been disabled again, not sure when it happened, or how or why! so I think that the problem is always with AVG

    Thanks for the comments. Yes, that's AVG 9. If you leave either Defender remain disabled or use something other than AVG 9. Just a note that Microsoft Security Essentals will also disable Defender.

  • The latest update of firefox is not compatible with trend micro security and people with disabilities, it's when I clicked on install. How to bring back my trend micro?

    I downloaded a firefox security update. When I clicked on install (or apply), I was told it disabled my security from trend micro, and there is no version compatible with trend micro. He told me they keep control and let me know what is available. NOT GOOD. I paid a lot of money for my trend micro and want it to be functional. Help! I didn't click on finish. Does that mean the upgrade is not installed and that trend micro still works?

    I seem to have fixed that by going to the site of Trend Micro and upgrade to the latest version of Trend Micro Titanium 2012 V5.0. It uninstalled the previous version on my computer and then install the latest version. Trend Micro is working now and I can browse with Firefox. The upgrade was free.

  • Windows Defender is disabled by Microsoft Security Essentials

    I just uninstalled Windows Live One Care and installed Microsoft Security Essentials (the new free program).  Windows Defender was always "off" under Windows Live One Care.  Defender warned me that he can 'stops' also now that Microsoft Security Essentials is installed.   Is it the way it should be?  I have not any instruction on the site of Windows CE.  Can you tell me please?

    Solved. For some reason any installation IS does not stop Defender tries to start. Solution (as you would expect) must have Windows Defender off HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Run - exactly why Security Essentials is not beyond me...
