I purchased kaspersky internet security and I can't get it to download. I can't get the cd

It starts and then shuts down immediately and I can't use it. The computer will play a music cd but it won't read the cd rom. Any suggestions.



I purchased kaspersky internet security and I can't get it to download. I can't get the cd drive to work.anti virus



Sincerely wish that I had a technical answer to your problem. If your CD drive reads the music data then I see no reason why the data on Kaspersky is not being read, unless the disk is "blank".



If you have a neighbor with a PC, perhaps they will allow you to insert the CD into their CD drive to see if there is actually readable data on the Cd.



Or you may have to take the CD back to where you purchased with your receipt and tell the store that the CD shows no data. Ask them to put the CD into their PC and see what happens.



Wish I could offer more advise.



Good luck.

Computer Repair Business?

Right now, at UPS I'm making around $108 a week(working 3rd shift) I go to a tech school, I have recieved my A+, Security +, and Network +



I'm not getting any experience working at UPS, so i'm thinking of starting my own PC repair business.



I've checked,and the average per hour here in Louisville is like $50 an hour.



Do you think I can make more than that(at UPS) with my own business? And if so, what should I charge if most places are charging $50. I live at home, and no bills, so I don't really have any overhead. By the way, I'm 19 years old.



Computer Repair Business?antispam



You should open your business on the side and once you are making more at the business, quit your current job. There is a big market for computer repair.



Computer Repair Business?avast



don't do it, you will regret it. get a job repairing computers instead to get enough experience.then perhaps you can start your own business in the near future.
I'm currenty in the PC repair business and you can certainly make more than $150 a week. Here's what I recommend to get started: since you haven't done this before, I'd start out charging a little less than what others are charging. You can get that info from maybe the yellow pages, call some of the other shops and get an idea of what they charge.



Maybe you could start out charging $40 an hour on site and maybe $50 flat fee if they drop it off to you. That way there's no pressure to get it repaired right away. But you should still repair the PC to the customer's satisfaction because you want them to be a return customer and you can also use them for referrals.



There's a whole lot more into the PC repair business but this should get you started for now. Make sure you do your homework before you quit your day job.



Good Luck,

Computer experts. Please help !!?

I am using XP pro. When ever I open my internet explorer 6 on my desktop automatically it opens a page of a blog site, I tried to change the default settings to mail.yahoo.com by opening internet options but it wont allow me to change. I tried everything, like running ccleaner, Spybot, Ad-aware SE, Anti-virus (CA security) in safe mode, but no success. I also see a name of a person on the blue line of top of the webpage. Earlier it read for eg: "yahoo answers - internet explorer" but now I read "yahoo answers - Sandeep Verma" . I am so irritated as the blog site hangs my desktop. Please suggest some effective way to get rid of this issue. By the way, I did not set any restore point on my desktop, as I was ignorant about it. Thank you all in advance.

Anyone ever used Panda Platinum Security?

http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/In...



It seems to work very well! But it is very sensitive! Even if a program has changed for the better (like a windows update) It alerts you. Or if you change your access# (dial-up users) It warns you of an unauthorized phone#. I guess thats Good in a way? I know this: SO FAR! It has worked better than anything I have used. But I just got a new computer so, time will tell for sure.

Panda is very good. I use it on my desktop. I has greatly improved over the years and uses less system resources than it used to, but has lost none of its quality of protection. Stick with it: it's well worth it!

How do i remove the security toolbar 7.1's actual toolbar?

How do i remove the security toolbar 7.1's actual toolbar?husqvarna



security toolbar 7.1 is a toolbar which hijacks Your browser. It hides under various system files.



As You may have noticed it shows fake security pop-ups and always promotes a anti-spyware program. This program is surely fake and is only interested in stealing Your money.



You could try and delete the files, by using the manual instructions tutorial here. http://www.pcthreat.com/parasitebyid-671...



But i seriously advise getting a good anti-spyware program to remove these files you, or at least think twice before opening files and clicking on pop-ups.



How do i remove the security toolbar 7.1's actual toolbar?microsoft office



1. Download and run firefox to protect your from future spyware attacks and pop ups which are coming in through internet explorer (Trojan downloaders, win32 ).Browser attacks aren't easy to spot because they piggyback on legitimate traffic that doesn't exhibit many obvious warning signs

My computer makes noises(music, people talking) when I have no programs open and nothing running. Why?microsoft



Can you hear what the people say?
maybe your comp is possessed. lol
Something you have your computer system plugged into is not properly grounded. Plug your computer into a different electrical outlet, make sure your speakers are compatible with your computer, make sure there are no other systems near your computer, such as a stereo, radio, or anything of this nature. It's not usual for speakers to pickup voices. The cell phone population is creating a serious "micro wave" feedback problem. As a last resort, contact a computer store and have them make a service call. Know what I mean?!
I think those are pop up ads on the internet
Do you have pop up blockers enabled?



Maybe it has something to do with the new spy law they are trying to get in affect again..where they can listen to your phone calls %26 read your emails.....who knows?
Do you like it to be silent?

Whats the best and free security software for my laptop?

my computer keeps getting viruses and i need a program that will prevent tht from happening...and it has to be free...thanks.



Whats the best and free security software for my laptop?internet security software



For PC Security, you need more than just virus protection. If you're considering freeware security applications, you can choose from the following:



firewall: (listed in order of preference)



Comodo (http://www.comodo.com ), or



PC Tools (http://www.pctools.com/firewall )



Comodo recently released version 3.0 of its firewall, which adds an intrusion prevention component that's very effective, though it does take time for it to learn your system, and requires some ongoing attention by the user to make sure programs don't get improperly blocked. Comodo is one of the strongest firewalls available, freeware or commercial, according to the independent testing site matousec.com.



antivirus: (listed in order of preference)



Avira (http://www.free-av.com )



AVAST! Home (http://www.avast.com )



AVG (http://free.grisoft.com )



all provide realtime protection and automatic updates; all have ICSA and VB100 certification, but Avira has been among the highest rated in tests by several respected US and UK computer publications.

My computer crashed. i already installed itunes and i want to put songs from my ipod back into itune

itune blocks this function, you must utilize other tools to achieve that. There're couple of tools for transferring the files between ipod and computer (for backup)depends on your demands, e.g transfer only songs/videos, transfer photos etc. You can have a look of below review site, hope it useful.

If someone has hacked into my "yahoo" mail account and changed my password and sending mes

Should I be worried about my computers security if I hane norton protection.?



If someone has hacked into my "yahoo" mail account and changed my password and sending messages from Nigeria.kawasaki



How do you know that someone "hacked" your Yahoo! Mail account? If you're basing your claim on undeliverable e-mails coming back into your inbox that you didn't personally send, you may not have a "hacking" problem at all.



Most people believe that their e-mail address can not be used by another person... but, in reality, there is nothing in the SMTP "rules" that confirm the e-mail address you're using is your e-mail address! There are some new practices being tried out across the internet to try to prevent people from using other people's e-mail addresses, but those only go so far.



It's likely someone found your e-mail address on a website somewhere, and decided to use it to send out spam e-mail addresses claiming to be someone from Nigeria. These types of identity theft scams have been around for years.



There's most-likely nothing wrong with your computer, nor has your Yahoo! account been compromised or "hacked". If you're worried about it, just change your Yahoo! password, and run an anti-virus and malware scan on your computer.

ur sys might b attacked by any spyware which is common while using net..many antivirus packs do not detect them even norton security wil not help u..try shifting to someother antivirus ..i recommend antivir ......download it from www.fileratings.com
see there can many reason for slow speed, may be the movie size is big, your internet speed is slow, or you are infected by virus.
http://www.speedbit.com/
well i guess it depends upon the the model of your pc..maybe its frequency speed is slower compared to others.The slower the speed, the fewer instructions it receives and process.
Downloading movies is time consuming, but your internet connection has a lot to do with it. If you have dial-up, take a nap. If you have cable, much better.



Also, certain days and times affect downloading. Early morning and late at night better. Weekends and holidays, forget it. Think of it as traffic on the road or at the mall.



Did you close all open programs? Turn the screensaver off? It is running in the background.
Dude,Downloading movies takes a long time!!

What is the best internet security suite that is low on system resources and why?norton antivirus



the best bet is to avoid the security suite packages altogether and put a combination of individual programs on your system. programs such as Norton Internet Security And McAfee Internet Security are what we call bloatware, they are fat and consume way too many system resources. Avoid these like the plague. Here are my recommendations:



Anti-virus:



AVG Free Antivirus (top choice)



Avast Antivirus (second choice)

Why is my Windows (XP) Security Center telling me it is unavailable or needs to be restarted?

It told me to restart the computer. I have several times. Also my firewall shut itself off and I did not do that.



Why is my Windows (XP) Security Center telling me it is unavailable or needs to be restarted?microsoft



Let me get the question clear, when you go to th security center does it show the status of virus protection, Automatic Updates or Windows Firewall? Does it tell you to restart security center?

Yes you can reinstall.



As many times as you wish.



If I unistall Norton Internet Security, can I reinstall it later?norton internet security 2008



I switched to AVG from Norton Systemworks 2006 and am quite happy with the change. AVG has done everything one would expect from a good antivirus program. In fact go to http://www.download.com and read the publishers description, the tech review, and the user reviews to further evaluate it.



Be careful with Norton. I rebuilt my hard drive twice after the initial install and Norton shut me off from using my $80 copy of Systemworks based on "too many installations" even though I only installed it on the same PC. Based on their position I have discontinued buying or using their products after about 10 years of purchasing it faithfully.



Additionally, you are correct and the experts agree with you. Both Norton and McAfee are resource hogs and will slow down your PC drastically.
If you have the disk I imagin so.
You can absolutely reinstall Norton a second (or third, fourth, etc) time. As long as you have the license key that you were provided with and as long as you're not installing it on more computers than you are licensed for, you should have no problem at all.

Connecting to a network/internet security questions?

I'm at work and would like to connect to a stronger network other than the wireless one I'm on with my laptop.

I don't my bosses to see me on youtube!!



Connecting to a network/internet security questions?network security



The technology to track your Internet browsing is there but whether your company uses that technology is unknown to me. There is plenty of software and hardware out there that can track your browsing right down to each individual web page.



My company once had software that tracked web access and ran reports that showed how much it was costing (based on a preset average hourly rate) them to allow each employee to surf the Internet.



My suggestion would be, if you don't want your boss to know, don't do it.



Good luck,



Captain Computer



Connecting to a network/internet security questions?norton internet security



if you don't want them to see then don't do it it's pretty simple
If the network admin has a tap and isn't dumb, yes they will be bale to find out what sites you are visiting.
technically yes. Also the ports run back to a machine called a switch that may be programmed for just the card in the other machine by it's MAC address (a very long hexidecimal number that's like a cards name) and it can be set to shutdown the port if a different machine tries to use that connection to protect against information theft and breakins like putting a hub there and hiding a computer attatched to it. Also, what computer is on the end doens't matter, they can monitor netowrk traffic like that packets are coming from "youtube.com to YourComputer", but they can't use remoting software that they undoubtedly have. and that's more dangerous if you're in a small company because they likely don't have a great amount of resources and therefore a limited IT department.

An active-X control is an executable just like any other program that you download. And just like any other downloaded program, active-X can be used for good or bad.



Some website's active-X can deliever to your computer spyware and adware, often by misleading the visitor into downloading an active-X control that the website claims is necasary for the site to "work".



Only let active-X be downloaded from reputable websites that you trust 110% and never allow any active-X control to be downloaded that is not "Signed". Always err on the side of caution when downloading or allowing the use of active-X controls.



And NEVER lower your Internet Explorer security settings in the Internet Zone below the default settings. That is "Medium" for IE-6 and "Medium-High for IE-7.

You could try the System Restore which takes you back to a time when your computer was working good. Go To:

This process is completely reversable. And does not remove your personal files. Just go back one checkpoint at a time until your puter is working good again.

You should try advanced windows care. It might help you out. It is also free.
download mozilla firefox 2.0

Sounds like you downloaded that Internet explorer 7 junk Delete it go back to 6.0
Your screen turning off is likely to be to do with your Power Settings.



Right click Desktop and click Properties, click ScreenSaver and click Power Settings. Then make sure the turn off screen is set to a later time or Never - depending on if you want it to turn off.



For IE 7 crashing, I am not sure. Check that it isn't the website or reinstall program.



I use Mozilla FireFox because I prefer it.
well it can be that u have a virus or u just have too much stuff on ur computer, if u have an old computer and u keep on adding new stuff to it then it's gonna crash because well it's old.
Probably due to the latest windows update. I had a big update from windows this morning and mine is doing the same thing. I may wind up restoring my computer to an earlier date because of that. My screen isn't turning on and off...but it is freezing up and IE keeps crashing.
It might be something like your ISP or your modem. You might want to call Comcast or Verizon or whoever provides your internet to make sure there's nothing wrong.
aha! I see that some of the answerers above have downloaded IE7 and the new updates.you should set updates to notify you but let you choose when to install updates.then read the forums on what the updates are doing to every ones computers before you install them.you can get info at http://www.PCworld.com about the updates.I never let my pc do it auto.I have read today that some of the new 10-14-2006 updates are causing the exact problems that you %26 the rest have.restore to monday before updates %26 see if fixes.and then if does remove them.but read the forum at pcworld for all knowlage

Can I Run Norton Internet security with windows defender?

And what damage would running two firewalls do to your computer



Can I Run Norton Internet security with windows defender?noton



Norton Internet Security is a complete packge (antivirus, firewall, spyware protection, adware protection, etc.) Windows Defender is only Spyware protection program, it does not get rid of viruses, it get rid of spyware/adware, trojans. You can have 2 spyware programs on your computer but its not good having 2 antivirus protection program, they will clash with each other making either to not work properly. Window Defender and norton work together so don't fret



Can I Run Norton Internet security with windows defender?stinger



You can run Windows Defender and Norton. Don't scan at the same time. Turn off Windows Firewall because it is only one way. You want only one firewall.
Nortan will overide the Windows Security Features and Windows will detect that another piece of software has been installed and will automatically turn off the protection or downgrade it
there would be no dmg involved.. your computer would just run both of them but you don't need 2 virus protections.. each one works the same.. just windows defender is a lot better... .. i recommend using windows defender..
I talked to a pc tech about that and he said all that was needed is one anti-virus program, because with more than one , they would work against each other and slow down the performance of your pc. As far as damage , there would not be any just slows down your pc. Hope this helps.
Windows Defender is NOT a firewall NOR an antivirus shield - Defender is malware/spyware detection/remover ONLY!!!

Someone has either hijacked the domain, hacked it so that it points elsewhere, or it's not a valid address and someone has a redirect somewhere else. I went to it and got the same results. It's not your PC that's doing it. McAfee has an analysis on it, but simply lists it as suspicious and reports back the same results as you do about the pointing of the entry to the other domains.

"This is for every black woman who ever had a problem with a black man"?

I am a 25 year old successful, attractive black woman. I am a manager in a computer securities company, and I own and operate my own restaurant. I take very good care of my body, and try to dress with style. I've been told that I have a very nice personality ... I am not loud or obnoxious in public, even though black women are stereotyped as being so. However, when I am at the club or on an outing, every black man I see is always interested in talking to white women. I don't really have a problem with inter-racial dating, but it seems that black men are incapable of noticing a sweet, sexy black woman. Thoughts? Ideas?

Check the update for compatibility. Sometimes your updates will tell you that you have updates but in fact they are for another program system or patches that your system doesn't need. Keep in mind when you are told that updates are available doesn't necessarily mean that you need it.

My computer is infected with sohaned.ae . The file that cannot be desinfected is svchost.exe.?computer repair



The file C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe is not infected.



Size = 14kb



Date = 04-Aug-2004



Of course you cannot delete it because it is a live file. If you use Task Manager (press ctrl + alt + Delete) and click on the Porcesses tab, you will see many instances of this file in your list of processes. If you try and end the process then Windows may become unstable and shutdown.



This file is also kept in:



C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386



You could copy it to C:\Windows\System32 but I doubt if it would fix anything because service host runs all the time even in safe mode. You would have to boot in safe mode and select the Command Prompt only in order to copy the file from one directory to another.



I suspect you have a 'false positive' report from one or more of these anti-virus programs.



Unless they state that the file is in C:\Windows\svchost.exe i.e. it is in the wrong location then it might be a false report.

Insufficient RAM appears to be the primary issue. But you can try a couple different things.



I would run your task manager (control+alt+delete) and go to the Processes tab to see what is hogging up all of your resources. If you can see that some app or process is maxing resources, stop it and reboot.



If you have plenty of HD space but your RAM is pegged out under the Performance tab then something is working OT.

I use BitDefender Antivirus v10, which does a very good job as a security program. However, against this virus, it does not seem to do much! BitDefender DOES block it, yet that's all it can do. BitDefender cannot quarantine it, delete it, or disinfect it. I cannot delete it manually, either; doing so simply executes the virus, which BitDefender blocks, and I am back to square one - the virus/executable is still there!

Run your virus scan in Safe Mode. Reboot %26 as Windows starts, press F8 key repeatedly until Safe Mode starts. Then turn off System Restore %26 turn it back on. This will remove any restore points that it might be hiding in.

Will an external hard drive help in password/file security?

How will an external hard drive help protect my files and passwords? Is it possible for the computer to operate with just using an external hard drive? I have recently been getting the "Cain%26Abel" when I run my spyware scan, and I found out that it's a password hacking tool. I don't know how I have gotten it (all my AS %26 AV are up-to-date), but my last resort would be to reformat my computer. If I will do that, I want to make sure that next time around, I will not be infected with the same password hacking tool. I couldn't do back transactions because of this fear that someone out there is just waiting to steal my passwords. Someone has advised me to use an external hard drive. Now, how will that work? I will just plug it in when I will do bank transactions, then unplug it when I'm done? How about the internal hard drive? Won't that also store some data? I am very confused right now, pls. help me. Thanks a lot!



Will an external hard drive help in password/file security?aurora



Backing up your data will prevent data loss, but it will not ensure data security.



Was Cain%26Abel removed or is it still active? If it is still active, you need to take it to a PC expert (reputable and CERTIFIED) so they can remove the infection.



If someone is specifically targeting your system, you need additional protection. Put a windows password on and do not let anyone use your computer without explicit permission. DON'T leave it on and un-password protected when you leave the room.

Im no computer expert but i presume the taking off sound is the fan and it may be broken causing your pc to over heat which can cause major problems.



The best idea is to get it checked out before it gets any worse.



The error reports go to microsoft to let them know this error has ocurred and if they recieve lots of the same errors they try to sort out this problem. So it doesnt really help you all that much



My computer sounds like it is taking off, help!?free anti virus



It's most likely to be a fan but there is a possibility that it's the hard drive. Just check the hard drive light on the front of the case when the noise occurs. If it stays off then it's one of the fans. If however it's flashing indicating hard drive action the noise could indicate a dodgy hard drive. You would be well advised in this case to back up anything important on your computer to flash drive or cd or even better a USB hard drive. You should do this regularly anyway as it's too late when you lose all your files. Hope this helps.

You can use something like digicam http://www.digi-watcher.com/ which will work with a wide variety of cameras. I have personal experience with Creative Labs' software http://www.creative.com/products/welcome... for this purpose and found it completely functional but very difficult to set up (and I'm a IT Professional). If you can get a static address though, I'd recommend using a standalone system. There are cheap ones, like the x10 http://www.x10.com/homepage.htm which you may remember from their extensive pop-up campaign a few years ago; and really good ones like Axis http://www.axis.com/ which cost more but are more secure and reliable. I have personal experience with the Axis line, and found them to be exceptionally good. In general, you can search for "ip cameras" and find hundreds of models at ranges from %26lt;$100 to $1000s. You can even by several from Amazon.

Apply for a lot of entry level jobs. Plus if you can take some Microsoft certification classes and pass, that will help a lot. You need your foot in the door. Once you are there, you can get experience, prove yourself and expand.

I'm in IT infosec.



If you like a heads down work auditing or analysis may be what you want. It requires the ability to cover many applications, like code, and figure out if they are safe. Certifications and training are your best bet.



If you like saving the day, you'll need to know about system security and attack methods, again training in network and routing protocols, log analysis and vulnerabilities will server you well.



For security architects, you'll need to understand how to design security into a application and a network. Training in network and/or application design would be helpful.



For analysis and auditing, certification and training in IT audits and a CISA certification is beneficial.



Good luck.

Can't Install Kaspersky Internet Security 6, Because the AVG ver 7.1 free ed was previously ins

I cant install KAV IS 6



the installation screen says that : "Attention! Some incompatible software is installed on your computer. These applications cannot be used together with Kaspersky IS 6.0. In order to proceed with the installation, remove these application."



AVG Anti-Virus



I have had AVG free edition, ver 7 or 7.1 I think..



I had it uninstalled more than a year ago.. actually.



Now I can't uninstall it bcoz it's gone from my uninstall programs' list



I did uninstall it properly.



Maybe some of the registry from AVG still in my window's reg



I had used registry mechanic.. but no use..



I had contacted Kaspersky.. they told me to contact ppl from AVG. But I can't since they only give support to subscribers..



I haven't tried posting at their forum though



Is there anything like Norton removal tool, but for AVG ?



Can't Install Kaspersky Internet Security 6, Because the AVG ver 7.1 free ed was previously installed ??computer



There must be some AVG support program/s still running on you computer, the name may not AVG related. One way to resolve this is to install AVG again, which the programs and processes that are installed during setup. You can identify those process by checking the time they are installed. Then remove them all together. Norton does something like that, too.

Does anyone know about winferno security, can i trust them?

I am not able to download attachtments since i bought winferno and it has asked me to uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and to check "Show hidden files and folders", but my computer gives me a warning, can anyone help please?



Does anyone know about winferno security, can i trust them?computers



Exposing hidden files and folders is a necessary step in getting proper scanning and removal of malware. Most of todays Trojans and other infections hide in these files and folders because they are not scanned in the Normal or Safe Mode alone.



Open the hidden files and folders for the scan and then close them once the scan is complete. Do not leave the accessable all of the time.



TEMPORARILY SHOW HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS.



1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.



2. Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Folder Options.



3. On the View tab, under Hidden files and folders, click "Show hidden files and folders", and clear(uncheck) the "Hide protected operating system files" check box.



IMPORTANT: Files are hidden by Windows for a very good reason. It is not wise to experiment with these files. Unfortunately, to successfully remove modern spyware we must turn this protection off temporarily. Please turn the protection back on when you have finished cleaning your system.

My computer shuts down and I can't it to come back up, what could be causing it.?

Every time it is idle for any period of time it will shut down. I run Windows XP and Norton Security. Both have been updated.



My computer shuts down and I can't it to come back up, what could be causing it.?downloads



Check your electricity in your home or place. That was the cause of my computer doing that. Also you could still have a virus. Do you have DSL? If so and you are still using other things like Norton that could also be a problem. The DSL folks have to protect you. You could have too MUCH protection believe it or not. That was also causing shut downs for me.



Hope this helps.

My computer shuts down and I can't it to come back up, what could be causing it.?house call



Hi. Shutdowns are sometimes caused by excessive heat. Check your CPU fan and heatsink for dust and make sure you have adequate case ventilation.
Control panel. click on power icon and look were it says 20 minutes to shut down change it to never then click apply.
Sounds to me like you need to change your settings--a computer can be set up to hibernate or turn off after so many minutes of idle time. If that doesnt work try your system restore-to an earlier date when it did what you wanted it to.
yeah, the heat may cause that.. and it also can mean that you're about to loose everything, so you'd better start making a backup of your files...



'cause when it happened with my, everytime it turned off, i started it over again... than one day my computer broke and i lost everything (a motherboard problem, wich might have been avoided).



so i recommend you consider making a backup of your files as soon as possible... it's a risk you might take!



but if you can, take you computer to some tecnic.

Does anyone know about cox security & software?

I have cox connection but haven't installed the software (ie was told not to do so). I am wondering if mcaffe virus is enough. It says a firewall is detected but not managed by mcaffee. I have some weird stuff going on my computer but nothing seems to detect it.

well the best answer for this would be to go to cox IT support and explain them what is your problem and also if you are still not satisfied withe the support for them i would change service plan.

I need info on wireless security. Where do I go to find it?

I am writing a 2 page paper for a computer class in college and I am having a real hard time finding info on WEP, WPA, WPA2, and MAC filtering......any suggestions?

This has most of everything you are looking for...

Hope this helps ;o)



I need info on wireless security. Where do I go to find it?husqvarna



Hmmm I'm guessing you want online available info to look at...tough one. I personally have several documents and plenty of notes due to my profession.



This is one of the problems with security- to keep it secure you can't go telling the world too much about how you do it.



Start with the NIST site, this is the most comprehensive location regarding crypto and security methods you will find however it is VERY technical. NIST is the National Institute of Standards and Technology. All industry accepted standards including security models get tested and certified here and there is a wealth of detail on how the testing is performed and how each product works. You should find everything you need under security testing through various links there.



Post again if you need detail on something specific you can't find there.

Reboot into SAFE mode and try to run a full scan again. (Use the F8 key during the early part of the startup sequence).



You should have an anti-spyware solution on your computer. I recommend that you go to http://www.download.com and get AD-AWARE and SpyBot Search %26 Destory. Install, run, update and scan your computer with both programs.



I have some kind of computer virus or spyware on my computer?internet security software



use housecall



housecall.trendmicro.com/
The pest cleaners that quarantine files will have an option to delete quarantined files once you have determined that you have no need to reinstall them. If you doubt the effectiveness of your anti virus then Bitdefender has an excellent scanner and removal tool but does not have any active background protection to conflict with your Mcaffee in the free version that is available at: http://www.bitdefender.com/site/Main/vie...



You should also use multiple spyware scanners to ensure that you catch all the problems. Spybot Search and Destroy is an excellent program for scanning for and removing spyware. The resident modules can be a bit buggy, but the extra included tools such as startup manger are great! http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirro...

If you loaded a new OS, like BT Yahoo.....it automatically opened a limited new account for you....simply go into the Admin settings and delete it.....but DO delete it.

hmmmm if you did not make this user than it is worrying i dont think any of those programs would make a new user try deleting the user and if one of these programs no longer work use system restore to restore back(make a restore point first)

My computer, using Windows XP and accessing the internet via Internet Explorer 6, is preventing any

I cannot download any programs from the internet at all, even Microsoft Updates. I have Zone Alarm Security Suite running as a virus checker and am getting no reports of a virus. I have also tried this with Spybot with no indication of a problem. I connect via a Firewall router.



All I get is the message Access denied, Page Blocked or HTTP 404 error message.



It is also preventing me from updating my Zonealarm updates.



Anyone any ideas?



Thanks



My computer, using Windows XP and accessing the internet via Internet Explorer 6, is preventing any downloads?free antivirus



uninstall zone alarm software first and use AVG antivirus as virus security software.



This will solve your problem.



My computer, using Windows XP and accessing the internet via Internet Explorer 6, is preventing any downloads?internet



First, try to identify what's preventing you from downloading stuff.



Try shutting down each security program that you have. Specially the Zone Alarm firewall.



If that's not the reason, try accessing your router manufacturer's website or the instructions manual to see if there could be a reason for blocking the internet traffic.
I would start using other browsers such as Firefox or opera. I had problems with internet explorer myself though not the same as yours, i couldn't open a pop up window or download without restarting trouble. internet explorer is vulnerable to viruses mate .the switch to opera and firefox has been worth it. no problems just quick downloads especially with firefox. i cant even make up my mind which of the two is better
Try another browser like firefox http://securitynewsfromthenet.blogspot.c...



or opera http://www.opera.com/download/

Having computer problems?

I think I might have a virus or something that Norton and Spybot are not detecting. First ads keep popping up even though my pop up blocker is on and my security is set on medium high. Then a window will just close or if I have 2 similar windows open (say Hotmail and then a link from hotmail) and close one they'll both close. What happened and (in easy details) how do I fix it? Thanks



Having computer problems?free spyware remobal



Change your browser to Firefox..The built in popupo blocker is more powerfull..It's free and much better than I.E...



This will stop your problem:) ...Both browsers together without conflict..

U DONT HAVE ANY VIRUS IF U HAVE ANY DOUBT THEN INSTALL KASPERSKY 7v ITS PERFECT IN REMOVING VIRUSES



Having computer problems?kawasaki



go here and run the scan first:



http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
Probably you got new adware/trojan. Norton mostly focuses on virus and is slow on updating such parasites. Spybot S%26D is quite slow on detecting new parasites too.



Try scanning with superantispyware (www.superantispyware.com) It has free edition.
when the pops up



copy or memorize that url or u can say link, and block that



or



uninstall the explorer 6



update with explorer 7
can u tell me which version use if explorer, or you are using firebox???

Yes. I run WoW with a 1.8 Ghz Athlon CPU, 1.25 Gb of RAM, and 128 Mb of Video RAM. (HP dv8301nr)



And, I would not use wireless to play an online game. You will have to deal with latency from the game server and from your wireless network. Expect to be dropped more often versus a wired connection.

I recently updated my Zone Alarm security and since then I am getting all these viruses. It says it

not-a-virus. How do I keep getting all these viruses and how can I chase them down and stop the cause. After a scan, which are several a day, they list the viruses and part of the file (or where ever) code. How can I find out where they are coming from. I am not a computer whiz but I am not iliterate either. So I do need step by step instruction.

----Programs in instructions are free for the home user----



Turn off system restore. This will remove all restore points since some are infected and will make scanning quicker. Turn system restore back on after you are malware free.



http://www.real-knowledge.com/flushres.h...



Remove temporary files, logs, cookies, etc. by using Ccleaner. Do not use "Advanced Settings" or the "Issues" button. Use only the default settings. This will make your scans faster. Run the cleaner again after you are malware free.

Install Super Antispyware. Run it in safe mode. Allow it to quarantine whatever it finds.

Run the online scan for Bit Defender in normal mode. Allow it to quarantine whatever it finds.

Why does this blue screen show up every time I try to download security updates for Windows?

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.



If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen , restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:



Check to be sure you have adequate disk space. If a driver is identified in the stop message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates. Try changing video adapters. (I have no idea what this entire part means)



Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

I have Spy Sweeper/Norton Internet Security?

With both of these programs installed, will prevent third parties, and detect any snoopers trying to break my passwords or retrieve any information from my Computer?



Hail Mary to all of your wise answers to my questions.



Love all of You!! ;)



I have Spy Sweeper/Norton Internet Security?product key



Well, just because you have both of those programs installed doesn鈥檛 mean your 100%. In conjunction with that I would recommend that you also make sure that you have all the latest Windows update from www.microsoft.com.



One easy way to check is while connected to the internet,



at the top of internet explorer click on tools%26gt;Windows update.



Two other great products as well are:



Windows Defender beta 2.0



and Spybot.



I have Spy Sweeper/Norton Internet Security?triumph



Thank you=-!)_ Report It


Very good but I would add Spybot-Search %26 Destroy and Lavasofts Adaware.
Norton is just a memory hog.



But as someone said, at least you HAVE antivirus.



Make sure you have a BETTER firewall than the one in Sp2..because honestly..it isn't very good.
Those will only help if you have ALL your windows security updates including sp2.
Yup. It will. Of course, some new kinds of breaking into your computer will not be detected. You tried your best however.



Just patch up your Windows XP and you're done.
I don't like your choice in antivirus but atleast you have one...but KUDOS on the Spy Sweeper...the best of the best. You are good to go !!
Yes why not. Norton Internet security has an Anti virus software, a firewall and spyware software. And you also decided to get spysweeper. So that's it. You are now protected from viruses, hackers and spywares. Good combo. Make sure you update your security software for best results.

go tohttp://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/... and install. most streaming video needs this player to run. you may also have to disable your firewall to have it play.



My new computer with XP and IE6 won't run streaming video. Any ideas?trojan



depending on what the file you're viewing is depends on what codec or software you need to view it.



solutions:



1. d out what program they use and download the codec or software



2. ensure Norton is "allowing" this feature
install sp2, and sp3 from microsoft and virtual machine from java(microsystems)



very important xp doesn't come with virtual machine.
what internet connection do you have
may be that norton blocking check it!
Make sure you have all plugins required to play video
Same here, I downloaded the latest windows media player and it works fine now.
The big thing is...



Your internet connection (if you have cable or DSL, then you should be ok).



Also, the Rams may not be enough and need to be upgraded...



Also, check your Video card, and make sure its up to date, and as powerful as you need it...



I wish you well..



Jesse
You have to ADD your Windows Media player to the APPLICATIONS list on the Norton Internet Security firewall section.



Good luck.
I think that you have to cut off the firewall so that the video will play
well install latest version of windows media player %26 install XP service pack 2.
