  Hello

  Sorry we don't communicate via this forum.

  You need a real antivirus because these are the two antispyware. You have the PCtools antivirus
  on the computer or just their toolbar in Internet Explorer?

  -------------------------------------------------

  If there is no antivirus on the computer here is what I use and recommend (except for one
  program like Prevx, you don't want more than one antivirus on the computer program
  much less running because they interfere with each other and lower security). Each combination
  of her below you will warn of malware without toolbar from PCtools running online.

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are alll 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 leaving Standard, Web, and
  Operation of the network.

  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 5.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 5.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  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  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.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows Internet Explorer (e-mail)

  Whenever I want to hyperlink to an e-mail address of a Web site I get the following dialog box:

  Windows Internet Explorer
  Cannot perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed.

  It started only recently and from any Web site.  How can I fix it?

  Your post has nothing to do with Windows Update.

  Unlike Windows XP and Vista, Win7 does not have a default email Client. [What were thinking?]

  You will need to install a (e.g. MS Outlook;) Windows Live Mail; Oiseau-tonnerre) , and then set it as a default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) Set Program Access and defaults of the computer before any function article send to or MailTo will become available.

  You will find support for Win7 e-mail Clients in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads

• Windows Internet Explorer opens automatically at startup of the Facebook page

  I use Windows Vista Home Premium software on a Gateway computer. For some reason any start-up, my Windows Internet Explorer is automatically upwards, and there a Web Facebook.com page already on the screen asking you to sign up for Facebook. It flashes at the bottom of my screen until I click on it. I don't want no internet will automatically launch and I want either of Facebook. How can I keep internet start automatically without my even clicking on it? Thanks for the help.

  Dear Rachel,

  Please, try the following steps.

  (1) check that the homepage of your Internet Explorer is not "facebook.com" - could be found under Tools-> Internet Options-> general, in the section "Home Page." If you do not have "facebook.com" written there, replace it with another site that you want to load when you start your browser or with "subject: empty ' If you just want a blank window is displayed when you run your browser.

  (2) on your Start menu, choose programs-> startup programs list. If "Internet Explorer" is in the list, just simply delete.

  ((3) if (2)) does not help, try running 'msconfig' (choose Run from the Start Menu and just type "msconfig" in the window that appears), go to "Startup" and uncheck a box near point "Windows Internet Explorer".

  I hope this helps!

  How to COMPLETELY uninstall Windows Internet Explorer 8 so that I can reinstall clean.

  My copy is damaged somehow so bad that I can't navigate what either without error "not responding" and a lot of pages, that allows to load OK does not charge now and I can't seem to download and files that are oiffered on specific sites (for example the financial operations of a financial institution to import into Quicken).

  IT departments have advised me to do this uninstall - a few after that asdking me to perform the necessary loads and downloads using FireFox instead (which I really didn't want to do) and the realization that downloads and page load worked well on this browser.

  Reset IE8 did not work and it has the same in Normal or Safe Mode.
