Hello

One thing you forgot to tell us that's what AntiVirus do you use?

If you are using an Internet Security Suite, which uses its own firewall.

And the Defender is not an Antivirus; It's only an antispyware software.

You need an AntiVirus installed to protect your system.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

You say that you have a problem with the Defender.

Read about Defender:

If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

There is nothing to worry.

Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

«Get the same error msg when I click on «change startup programs»

How to change Vista startup programs without using Defender, use either of the following methods:

"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

http://netsquirrel.com/Msconfig/msconfig_vista.html

Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

"V11.21 Autoruns for Windows"

Windows Vista

Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

Once in Safe Mode with network, download and run RKill.

RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

    Hello

    Usually the Windows media Player is not able to read DVD movies IF no plugins were installed.
    To watch DVDs, you can use programs such as WinDVD or PowerDVD.
    These programs are designed for the DVD play!

    But you can also visit the Microsoft Web site and search plug-ins for Windows Media player.

  • Windows Firewall service does not start after the removal of Virus

    Hello

    I believe that my son's computer has been infected with the Trojan.Agent.Ed virus.  I managed to remove it (from different folders in AppData), but a few vestiges remain of course.  The windows firewall service does not start - it throws an exception to access denied on startup and when I try to start the service manually.
    I tried to run the Sysinternals Process Monitor to display all events ACCESS DENIED and checked the permissions on the key to registry MpsSvc in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services and compared to a corresponding Windows 7 machine.  I've even exported the key MpsSvc and sous-branches of the laptop in good health and tried to import into a failure, but the import does not seem to occur, even if it gives a message "imported".
    I also tried the troubleshooting of Windows Firewall that confusedly says:
    "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall... Not fixed
    "Set permissions for the registry keys involved"... succeeded
    "Windows Firewall service is not started. Not fixed
    "Starting the Firewall Service"... succeeded
    Any ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thank you.
