• XP SP3 Security Center will not suddenly Norton Internet Security recognize?

  Windows XP SP3 Security Center won't recognize all of a sudden of Norton Internet Security. It has been fine for years. I don't have a virus.

  How to fix problem?

  Hi Chris,

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum. I understand that XP SP3 Security Center will not recognize Norton Internet Security. I would like to help solve you the problem.

  This problem may occur if there is an inconsistency in the system files or folders associated with XP Security Center. Follow these methods:

  Method 1.

  Disable the firewall and check if that helps.

  How can I turn on or turn off the firewall in Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later versions? : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283673

  Note: you should not disable Windows Firewall, unless you have another firewall is activated. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.

  Method 2.

  Rename the storage folder.

  1 - Go to control panel, and then open administrative tools.

  2 - click on Services.

  3-go down to Windows Management Instrumentation and stop this service.

  4. stop the Security Center service.

  5-exit and close all windows.

  6. right click on start and select explore.

  7. go down to C:\windows or Winnt\system32\wbem\repository.

  8 remove only the storage folder

  9-go Back To Services and restart the WMI and the Security Center service.

  10. close all windows and restart the computer.

  Let us know if you need assistance with any windows problem. We will be happy to help you.

  Hello

  Thugs loading as usual but then programs are supported by the system functions that make the machine
  harder to use - even if you pay or not. Although these are certainly malware that they are not a
  virus - more like a Trojan horse and certainly a nuisance.

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

  These are scams, fake antivirus to force you to pay for it, even if they have no advantage at all.

  If one of them is not correct (or those listed in the same guide) Please give us the

  See about the program.

  Please help me identify anti virus and personal firewall on my computer software.  I don't know where to find the information required for the notification of security

  Since you have posted in Forum Vista, I will assume that you are using the Vista operating system.

  You can get this information by navigating to the 'Start' menu and selecting 'Security Center' in the 'Control Panel', then you should be able to see what is running (antivirus/antimalware) under the tab "Malware Protection".

  My computer is infected with a virus/bug I have checkd with Anti virus few records showed infected but could not withdraw, step by step programs stoped working, I tried all the things microsoft Web and other webs to run antispy etc, but nothing works programs start, but halfway to display error and stop now even explore stop working, now I had a white windoa screen opens more but I have a lot of data that is important, how to fix it? can anyone help please thanks

  Raz2009,
  If you have a known problem with the virus then I suggest to get an antivirus program that you can boot from and run it without starting Windows.

  Another option would be to format your drive and do a clean install of Windows (this would remove all the data of your drive).  If you have a backup of your data, this is the best course of action.  If you do not have a backup, you can then do a parallel install (This installs XP in a different folder if you don't lose any data). Here is an article on installation options: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316941

• Vista premium operating system? need to use AVG anti virus and pc tune up?

  I have an older laptop OS Vista premium and AVG anti virus and p c tune up.

  I realize are now 8.1 W not the product AVG; can I rely on Windows defender disc cleanup, Defragmenter (and others I don't know) to protect the laptop? and remove AVG as I did on my most recent portable W8.1 mind?

  Thank you

  FOR EXAMPLE

  Hello TedGibney,

  As in earlier versions of Windows, for example, the Bill said Windows Defender, Vista only acts as an Anti-Spyware. It was only in later additions of Windows that Microsoft has added anti virus ability.

  As you have used AVG before I would suggest that you follow this anti virus application, when you are running Windows Vista.

  About PC Tune Up it would be wise to not use that, like many Tune Up / registry cleaners these applications can cause more problems than they actually heal.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

• The Windows Security Center Service was unable to establish even queries with WMI to third-party antivirus monitor, anti-spyware and firewall.

  Original title: do I have to re - install Windows 7?

  Today, I opened the Action Center and noticed that Panda Internet Security reported he was off, when it wasn't.  I checked the administrative events and one of the errors was: Security Windows Service Center could be same queries WMI to monitor third party antivirus, antispyware and firewall.  I've got Panda IS 2012 running, which is a very good program.

  I just spent a good hourzs little addressing a Panda technicina, who, after a lot of faffing autour, told me that I either set up a new profile, or I re - install Windows, I don't want to do, because I could lose the system restore facilities, (I had to ask Microsoft to help me address the issue of the restoration of the system because it did not work).  The problem with the Security Center Windows Service dates back to August 10, 2011.

  Anyone know what I'd do, which involves having to uninstall and reinstall Windows?

  Kind regards

  Emma D

  Hello

  1. which parameter is used to install Panda antivirus?

  2 did you use typical or custom?

  If you use Panda IS 2012 as an anti-virus, then Windows Security Center may have disabled the native Windows Firewall, that does send a real-time alert. You can try shooting the alert and check.

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd492018.aspx?LC=1033

  Important: Select the security settings, once you have done to solve the problem.

  You can also check the parameters of Panda IS 2012 to allow the automatic update and other necessary parameters.

  To try to update manually, follow these steps:

  un) right-click on the icon of Panda Global Protection 2012 on the taskbar

  (b) in the menu that appears, click Update to start the process
