WinAntiVirus Pro 2007, HELP PLEASE!!?

I need a free way to romove a lot of spyware on my computer. I have a Windows XP. PLEASE HELP!!



WinAntiVirus Pro 2007, HELP PLEASE!!?virus scanner



this is the correct way to remove it.follow the directions on this site and good luck. http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix...



WinAntiVirus Pro 2007, HELP PLEASE!!?anti virus software



there are lots of free spy ware removers on the web..



there are lots of anivirus software



click on the link below for free anti virus
Use AVG. The best, I love it. It scans very well and it alerts you. Plus it is free and it updates everytime you turn on your comp. I recommend it highly!
HAHAHAHA, u got that winantivirus pro crap. Wow, get kaspersky
Try Web based antispyware GarbageClean from http://www.SecureMyWindows.com to scan %26 remove WinAntiVirus.
WinAntiVirus is a rogue "Virus Removal" application. It's designed to "fix Viruses" that cause PC instability and vulnerability. However, the developers of this program have a LONG history of un-ethical tactics to acquire their customers. Once their spyware is installed on your pc, you're plagued with irritating false 'Windows-Like' popups. These popups are irritating by design.... they hope to frustrate into shelling out $50 to buy WinAntiVirus 2007 to remove it.

Why will microsoft word 2000 not start?

As soon as I attempt to run it, it instantly utilizes 100% of the cpu and the AVG E-mail scanner kicks in; then about 5-8 minutes later, 2 unresponsive microsoft word 2000 windows open up and then nothing. I already sent an error report and am not holding my breath.



Strangely, it also seems I can not install windows updates.



Is there anything I could try (all I have in the way of security software is AVG free) that doesn't involve me installing spyware removers and such?...or does it seem that's my only option at this point? Please help. Pretty pretty please. I don't wanna buy a new computer yet...too expensive. There MUST be something I can do...there MUST be a computer expert on Yahoo Answers somewhere out there...



Why will microsoft word 2000 not start?virus



Uninstall Word 2000



Uninstall AVG



Restart your computer.



Immediately go to Windows update and get all updates for windows.



Restart.



Install Word 2000



Go to MS site and update Word.



Restart.



Try Word. Should work fine.



Reinstall AVG



Get all updates for AVG.



Try Word again. If it has the same old problem, then AVG and Word are probably not compatible. Uninstall AVG and use another AV program.

Good keylog programs?

ok i need a free program that cant be detected by spyware doctor and keeps track of everything that my kids type



Good keylog programs?



I suggest that you do not key any keylogging programs.



They usually have viruses, or they keylog you!



The best solution is to just go into History and view there.



If it is clean, go into My Computer, Documents and Settings, Their user name, and then cookies. That will show you the sites they have been visiting.



Instead if you want something that protects, get Norton Antivirus as it does come with a parent control



Good keylog programs?antivirus downloads



Try http://www.snoopfree.com I am using this program for the past ifew months. It is very good and efective.
they have plenty of good keylogging programs at www.download.com
email me at srp333@comcast.net, i created a keylogger using C++ it stays hidden and is undetectable, it then logs everything into a txt file in a certain location.

Help me further?

i have spyware blaster .



wht i will do if i have spyware blaster. i donot know where to delete spyware. i dont knw how to protect.



please help me further..



if u say that i should buy any other than spyware blaster , where i would get it free. send me website.



i also have ad-aware se personal. i begin to scan . after finishing scanning, then i dont know what to do next. help me further ....



Help me further?abtuvurys 2005



SpywareBlaster blocks known bad sites and protects settings, but it doesn't delete spyware that's already on the computer. I use SpywareBlaster, Ad-Aware SE and Spybot Search %26 Destroy



from www.safer-networking.net as my main spyware defense, all free. If you need advice on what to do with the items they detect, there are a number of sources of advice. Some good forums are http://forums.tomcoyote.org/ and http://www.castlecops.com/forums.html or you can go to fixmypcmike.com and email me questions.



Help me further?antivirus programs



Important for you to understand that SpywareBlaster, an excellent program by the way, DOES NOT delete or get rid of Spyware for you; it PREVENTS YOU from getting it in the first place, but you need those other programs for deleting the baddies. SpywareBlaster IS NOT a scanner. SB needs to be put on a computer that is clean to begin with, it will not help you to clean it up. Once you get your system clean, than SB is an excellent program to help it stay that way. Good luck.
AFTER SCAN go to the bottom of the program and click show log file. check all the findings and click next DELETE all of them. The go to status at the top left and click that. Then open the quarantine list and click on that and then delete that also. It is perfectly safe to do.

Bestseller antivirus?

Well i've disabled system restore and messenger in administrative settings, and I seem to have lost the CD and key that lets me reboot my pc to factory settings.



I'm not really interested in downloading any anti spyware programs, as every answer on here seems to sound like they are advertising anti spyware programs with spyware embedded into them.



I have AVG free version, it showed that i have erased the viruses, yet nothing happens, there is still a little yellow flashing ! button on my taskbar, and popups keep on appearing.



Any ideas?

Internet Explorer doesnt allow me to access web pages?

My 30 day kasparov liscence expired and after uninstalling it all web pages features, like typing boxes like this one do not work, clicking any links do not work and anything on a web page that has a next 1...2...etc takes me back to the top of the same page. I have disabled my firewall entirely and enabled it entirely but the results are the same, I installed Internet Explorer 7, results are the same. Firefox browser works perfectly but I cannot do a search in my computer either, the dog comes out but there are no boxes allowing me to type a search in (this is in Windows Explorer)



All my windows updates are done via ms web page, I use Ewido anti spyware and Spyware Terminator, Clam anti virus and AVG free antivirus all running at the same time, when disabling each of the other the results are the same, when disabling all the results are still the same. Please help!



Internet Explorer doesnt allow me to access web pages?adware



I suggest that you try to carryout system restore to a day previous to the day when there was no virus or any problems. It may be a few weeks or months back. You have to decide the date. Detailed instructions are posted at http://fixit.in/systemrestore.html



The problem is likely to be solved. Then,You insatll a standard antivirus soft ware such as Norton, AVG , Avast ( free antivirus software and Ad-aware, Ewido ( free spyware removers). You can download free softwares at



http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html



Internet Explorer doesnt allow me to access web pages?antivirus scan



I had that same problem just yesterday.



The problem started after I updated my windows. Finally what I did was:



Click on start in the lower left corner of your computer. Click on Help and Support, go to Pick a task and click on Undo changes. The next page will show a calendar where you will select a day when your system was last working. Your computer will shut down temporarily but after that it should be ok.

Problem with my pc-lagging???

When i turn on my PC it needs almost 5 minutes to start....maybe the problem is that i have both norton intarnet security 2008 and spyware doctor...but i have 20 G free memory and 2048 RAM...MOREOVER i have only three games in PC and i have many times full system scan with norton and spyware doctor could u help me.....giving some ideas what i probably can i download or whatever i could do?THNX



Problem with my pc-lagging???agv



You probably have way too many applications in your startup axis. There are many sites that can help you trim this down to a reasonable level, this is a good one:



http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_con...



Norton Internet Security is a great example of bloatware. Personally, I think you would be better off with individual applications, rather than the suite....JMHO. You didn't mention your OS, processor, memory, etc. There may be many things you could do to speed things up, but, I would bet losing some of your unnecessary startup apps would have the most impact.



Problem with my pc-lagging???antivirus software



Sounds like someone is scanning files when you start up, probably Spyware Doctor. I would recommend you uninstall Spyware Doctor and use Spybot and Ad-Aware instead. Both are free, run them when you like, not at startup.

I am having problems with my sound playback. Sounds are skipping and sound scratchy. Please help!?

I was using windows media player and had no problems. I was able to surf the net, run windows live messenger and listen to music all at the same time. now i can barely move the mouse with out it messing up. The sound problems started about a week or so after i had downloaded I-Tunes. I have since removed it. I have also upgraded to the newest version of WMP after going through a troubleshoot. This Hasnt helped. I have also tried adjusting hardware acceleration and sample rate conversion quality.



I thought it may have been a virus problem, my protection at the time was not very good, (old norton that always had problems). Norton was removed and i replaced it with AVG Free version and i used Windows defender for spyware. I did buy Defender Pro and have switched to it but i am unsure if i just should have just stuck with AVG. So far i seem to be free and clear. I am now wondering if ultimately its a RAM issue. I have 512Mb, Dell, celeron 2.66Ghz. SoundMax Digital Audio.



I am having problems with my sound playback. Sounds are skipping and sound scratchy. Please help!?free spyware remobal



Well, it could be RAM or old hardware, but I doubt it. Sound uses very little resources. And if it worked once with what you have, then it should work again.



My guess is......



1) A software issue. In which case, the best thing to do, and I know your going to hate me for saying it, but you should wipe your hard drive and re-install Windows. That will fix a ton of problems.



2) A hardware issue. But you won't know for sure unless you do step 1 and the problem continues.



The other thing you can do is check all you wires and make sure they are plugged in securely. But they probably are.



Save you important files to a CD or external HD the re-install windows. Your computer will love you for it. :-)

Win32.Trojan.RX ??? Help pleases.?

Alright - I know that there is other questions on here simular to this one but all of them simply suggested programs that I could use. I want toknow if there is any other way - because I'm using some of the best free anti-virus stuff out there.



I'm running on Windows Defender and Avast! Anti-Virus, and Avast! Internet Security. Now, my Windows Defender picks this thing up, and says that delete was successful, but then no more than 5 minutes later I start getting it again. I've tried deleteing it, moving it to the virus chest...nothing. It won't go away.



So, I tried this trojen remover called a-Squarred Free. Taht picked up all my malware and spyware and deleted it - but I log onto my computer this morning and the virus is still there!



I keep getting random pop ups even when I don't have a blasted IE Window open, and little alerts that are like the updates that pop up for windows update - you know, the whole yellow triangle icon and the bubbles containing the messeges?



Win32.Trojan.RX ??? Help pleases.?free spyware remover



Use McAfee Virus Scan preferably 8.0 with current update



Win32.Trojan.RX ??? Help pleases.?ktm



win32.trojan is spyware, not a virus. As good as Avast is, and I have it, so I know it's good, it will not find or remove a trojan. You need SpyBot Search %26 Destroy, and probably Ad-Aware to get rid of this.
Looks like a Trojan horse. I would try STOPzilla. Download for free trial and it should take care of it. If not, remove it, and it was free. You will have to disable the other programs when you download STOPzilla. Anti-viruses don't seem to do well against spy ware, Malware, and there is always a new virus.
log onto symantec. com. you may have to log on in safe mode.to clean... a pathway may be causing it again or it is infecting other files, in this case you may have gotten a blended threat too. a replication worm. eww. log onto hijack this. com and see if that can help.
first of all windows defender isn't very good



avast isn't great either i use it and i have to manbually get rid of stuff that it misses



What you have is a downloader it download viruses and other downloaders over and over.



You can try going to housecall.trendmicro.com to do an online scan. This will get rid of most things avast and defender miss.



Don't use mcafee. Adaware and spybot are both good and better at removing spyware than defender.



I use spywareblaster, spybot search and destroy, adaware, avast and defender

Virus Help?

My computer is having a mid-life crisis. I just don't know what to do. It has viruses on it like trojans and stuff and a free scan tells me it has some 180 spyware threats or something like that.. I need help getting rid of them. I don't want to buy some $50 program. Please help me find a free virus remover and computer portecter. Thanks so much.

Photo editing programs?

Are there any photo editing programs you can get on the net, for free, or with a free trial, that is clean of viruses and spyware?



Photo editing programs?hijack this



Try Paint.net. It is similar to Photoshop. It is free but very powerful.



http://www.getpaint.net/



Photo editing programs?liveupdate



Try "The Gimp", closest thing to photoshop and free.



Photoshop has a free trial, but I just use Gimp so I don't have to deal with it expiring.
Me scared of de dark
Fork out the bones for photoshop, and forget the free junk versions that try to be like it.



my version costs a hell of a lot, but you know its worth every dime i have in it. you should see the magic that can be worked with it compared to the gimp and all those free ones. there is no comparison if you want to do some serious editing.



if you are just a hobbyist, then the free ones should be fine, I do this stuff for people on the side, so i needed the real deal.



At 25, to 200 a pop, it sure does not take long to pay its self off, and you can easily charge amounts like that if you have the skills. there are thousands and thousands of tutorials avail for it as well..



you can save by buying it on ebay, and if you are crafty enough, you can find it online downloadable and free, but im not into that scene. It is possilbe though. I did try it before i bought it, a well as gimp, and all kinds of others, none of them even came close!



Worth the money. Ask for it for christmas..lol



Email me if you want info, but I will assure you, photoshop is hands down, and by far the best one of all.
Try download.com it's got tons and tons of photo editing programs to download

Is it worth paying for McAfee anti-virus software?

My subscription to McAfee has finished, and I am not sure whether to renew or to go for a free one like Avast or AVG?



Can anyone advise what is best - it's for a home laptop that I don't use very often but mostly for internet (so don't mind if McAfee slows it down a little)....but couldn't afford to get it fixed if a huge bug crashed the whole system down....



Is it really better to pay for McAfee or are the free ones just as good? Also, what is spyware etc., do I need to download a few different types of protection?



Thanks! :)



Is it worth paying for McAfee anti-virus software?hijackthis



Personally, I use the free ones. But if you've got cash, go ahead and buy. There's even a AVG pro that you can buy. Usually, these paid anti-virus programs have firewall and anti-spyware included. But you can use separate programs like Spyware Terminator and Zone Alarm Pro.



Is it worth paying for McAfee anti-virus software?malware



I use AVG not only at home, on my laptop but also at my business. I've had no problems with it, its easy to use, does a great job and isn't a pain like Mcafee. Actually our tech/computer guy at work recommended avg and I've never regretted it.
McAfee is software that has let me down, I still prefer Norton Anti virus.

Whats the best way to get an AVI Codec for windows media player?

Do i need more TO protect from malware?

Cause i use avira antivirus personaledition classic free version. I just installed ad-aware for spyware protection. Do i need to install a malware protection for malware protection or avira comes with it? I am very worried cause yesterday i had a warning from mcafee site advisor and accidentaly clicked it and then i got a message saying something ur computer is infected with a malware. Then i used avira to scan but it didnt catch anything. And i dont want to log on anything cause i dunno maybe some1 is watching me. I also did system restore to an earlier day b4 it happened and wen i turned on computer i didnt get the message anymore doesi t mean it gone? Or should i install a malware protection?



Do i need more TO protect from malware?hp



Ad-aware SE and CCleaner are all you need to protect yourself from malware.



Ad-aware SE = spyware removal (free)



http://www.download.com/3405-8022-515354...



CCleaner = registry and organizer (free)



http://www.CCleaner.com/



FYI an anti-virus program will not protect from malware unless it's in a bundled package that includes some real time protection.



Do i need more TO protect from malware?mcaffee



Sorry but I dunno how god Avira is. I'd recommend you to get hte ZoneAlarm Internet Security, cuz it's known to have the best firewall, and u seem to know it too. Back then, now that it uses Kaspersky's Scanning Engine, it got the best Anti-Virus, too. And the Anti-Spyware is really cool. It finds everything, I took the Spy-Sweeper trial, scanned my pc for Spyware and it found nothing, which means the Anti-Spyware had found everything.
avira detection rate is like kaspersky and they are the most perfect antiviruses.you donot need any protection forget about this

How can I make a backup of my internet history?

I want it so when I go to a site, it not only goes in Windows automatic history, but in a seperate document or file, that way if it get's cleared, I still hae it, (no, I wouldn't be the one clearing it) but I'd also what it to say what it was like Windows does, (like if I do a sear it says Google searrch -- pickels).



Programs are welocme as long as they are 100% free! and you're sure there is no spyware or anything.



Note: This is to keep track of where people go even when they clear my history, which I don't want them doing.



Thanks, 10 pts!



How can I make a backup of my internet history?internet security 2006



The history is saved in the registry located at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Int... Explorer\TypedURLs if you want to access it, run "regedit" from the start menu. Then you can export it into a registry file. This file.reg is a text file that you can open with notepad.



I am sure there is software out there to manage history like http://wareseeker.com/download/ie-histor...



Hope it helps!

Any of you computer buffs tell me whats wrong with my pc??

I recently had to format my computer as I think I had a really bad virus on it. Now though, my computer is really slow, almost like dial up for some sites. It wont let me download real player, or windows live messenger, and probably more but have given up trying to get my computer back up to my previous settings.



I have kaspersky security suite on my computer (which I think I will take off and just download avg's free one), have defragged it and checked for spyware and viruses but nothing seems to be speeding up my pc.



Any ideas? I dont fancy taking it into a computer shop as I only have PC world here and they are c**p...



Any of you computer buffs tell me whats wrong with my pc??internet security



Hi there, it is very hard to answer your problem without knowing what the full specification of your PC is and what operating system you are running on it.



I have had many bring their PCs to me with this sort of problem and usually a complete reformat and re-installation of the operating system does the trick. If there is no noticeable improvement at this stage before installing or downloading any further programs then check that you memory cards have not become unseated on your processor, if OK then add one program at a time and check performance after.

P2P Programs....?

What are some good programs to download music (that are free) that don't have a ton of spyware or viruses?



P2P Programs....?kawasaki



grab limewire but scan everything that you download with a good virus program that will clean the file. It doesn't infect your computer until you open the file so if you clean the file before you open it then you will be good.



Be sure to set the default setting to disinfect the file first and then if it fails to delete.

Why won't my laptop turn on?

I just borrowed my friends Compaq Presario V4000 to do some free servicing for him (disk fragmenting, removing adware/spyware, etc.). I was using it for about an hour and the battery was starting to get low. I plugged the AC adapter into the wall, and in the computer to charge it. Everything was working fine. After about 2-3 hours of use, the computer just shut off and will not come back on! No warnings!



There is no sign of life at all. No lights, fan noise, etc! I tried unplugging the AC adapter and holding the power button for 30 seconds. I also tried it with the AC Adapter connected. Nothing!



I did notice the AC Adapter getting kinda hot before the shut off. I'm thinking that the heatsink got disconnected and the overheat caused the cumputer to turn off suddenly. I heard this is a problem with Compaqs. If this is the case, should any led lights come on or anything? No matter what I do, it will not come on.



Someone please help! I want to fix it before my friend finds out! Thanks



Why won't my laptop turn on?ktm



Remove the battery and power unit plug, and press the power button. Attach the power plug, and try to boot (with no battery in)



If it works, power down, reattach the battery, and try again....might just be static build up....



Why won't my laptop turn on?nortan



Compaqs are terrible. Buy a dell or an HP.



Second, it could POSSIBLY be your motherboard burned out, and the AC Adapters are usually always hot so don't worry about that.



People always think its a virus that did something, 90% of the time its the stupid person that did it.



It COULD be hardware failure and the laptop plain out sucks.



Goodluck.

Firefox keeps experiencing problems?

Hello I am running a XP SP2 1 GB RAM P4 2.8 GHz and I have a few free light security software on my computer including (Spyware Blaster, Avast AntiVirus, ADAware SE, Pc Cillin Internet Security [The Updates have expired so now I use it mainly as a firewall])



On an occasion when I am browsing a window appears saying firefox has encountered an error and needs to close. Coinsidentally it happens a lot when I have to firefox screens up or a yahoo mail up. Why is this happening?



If it helps to know I turned Windows Firewall off because it kept blocking my online gaming (Steam - which is counterstrike, cs cource, condition zero....)



Firefox keeps experiencing problems?live update



Don't forget the plug-ins. They sometimes cause problems. Try running Firefox in safe mode (Firefox safe-mode, that is, not Windows safe-mode.) If Firefox runs without any errors, then it's one of your plug-ins.



Firefox keeps experiencing problems?norten



Firefox has released several updates this week, and Microsoft will next week. Also check out Yahoo for updates too if you use their toolbars and Instant Messaging Services. You can set your computer to do these updates for you in some cases. Also why not Microsoft Beta Anti-Spy? And AVG anti virus programs ? They will not conflict with you other programs. And again they like Avast can auto update and run when you tell them too. Also check into WinPatrol. It is free too. And it auto-runs and tells you everything that is running on your system, not just the start up menu. It also gives you free info on them unlike task Manager from Windows. And you can tell your Windows Firewall to let your game run through the firewall. If it has subordinate programs to chat or play on the net you can include them too. But security is the number one thing you should take care of. Updates and programs to fight the threats out there. If you look you will find them free. And the ones I named are not just trials. They are for the life of the license agreement. Finally find an ISP that will block out a lot of the known threats in emails and such. You might pay more, but the peace of mind is worth it.
it's not just firefox. internet explorer does that to me sometimes too. just a glitch - remember, nothing's perfect
Does it happen at certain websites? Sometimes webpages just crash your browser, like Heavy.com. When I'm on a media link site they don't tell you it's a link to Heavy.com so when the window opens and it's Heavy.com I say "DAMMIT HEAVY!" and shut the window and then Firefox crashes. I multitask too much so I'm always switching windows too so sometimes it crashes that way.
Try reinstalling firefox or updating it. It may be doing that because of corrupted browser or outside mallicious access to ur computer. Turn on firewall and see if it helps.. its recommended to keep it on anyways.. if u want to play online games just add these programs and the ports they use to the exception list.
try uninstalling and reinstalling firefox....
These two MS sites should address the error message you are getting.

About ten minutes after turning my computer on, my task bar disappears, How can I get it to stop doi

I've gone into the task bar menu, set and reset...but it did not help. I think it started happening after I removed the free Avg 7.5 and installed PC Tools Spyware Doctor.



About ten minutes after turning my computer on, my task bar disappears, How can I get it to stop doing that??liveupdate



I couldn't tell you why it is doing this, but my machine also does this occasionally. Instead of having to reboot, I installed the Taskbar Repair Tool (the free version). I put a shortcut in the start menu. Whenever my taskbar disappears, I call the start menu by pressing the Windows key, and use this handy utility. Here is a shortcut to it:

What is a really good online game?

I'm looking for a really good online game that is free, but won't carry any viruses, or spyware, or anything that would or could harm my comp. I was recently playing CO, but I think they are getting money hungry, with dbs, and stuff, because they are lowering the Dragonball rate of finding any. Thanks again!

Ever been to Pogo.com? Some games are reserved for paying members but there are still a vast array of games to choose from that are free. You won't be interrupted by annoying pop-ups and spyware while playing- the site is run by EA games, a reputable gaming company. They have: arcade, puzzle, card, and board games to choose from; any of these will suit your taste. Check them out; you might decide it's worthwhile to buy a membership. E-mail me if you'd like a free 5 day pass to play ALL of the games available to members only.

Basically you have a country and a military and you try to make your country the strongest, by attacking others or building on your land. Its also a great game if you're into the on-line social aspect of games.

More memory.



Doodad
try upgrade memory to 1gb and maintain a good charge to the laptop battery.
you have got 2 antivirus programs thet will slow it down
Windows has a number of design flaws, resulting in it becoming slower and slower and not lasting very long. You've probably heard more than once someone say "My computer is getting sluggish, I'm gonna reinstall". Reinstalling Windows solves the problem... until next time. You may think this is just how computers work, they're very new technology, and still not really stable. Well, try Linux and you'll be surprised. Five years from now, your system will be just as fast and responsive as the day you installed it, not to mention that you won't have any viruses, adwares, trojans, worms, etc., that would force you reinstall anyway.

Svchost.exe - no disk error? how do i get rid of this?

Hi, My PC's has been trouble free for the last 16 months! no viruses, spyware or anything! but in the last week i've been getting a message that pops up every 5-10 minutes saying the following:



svchost.ese - no disk



There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive D.



You then have to hit cancel 10-20 times until is goes.



Any ideas how to solve this one?



Cheers.



Svchost.exe - no disk error? how do i get rid of this?microsoft



hi



when you start up svchost loads services from the registry to run. there can be more than one instance of svchost in the task manager (conrol-alt-delete)



if your main boot drive (the one with windows on) has been renamed then it could be the case that a removeable drive is now calling it's self c drive.



for example if windows resides on d: and c: is a memory stick drive then svchost will be looking for the services to load in the c drive. so if there is nothing in c: it will ask you to load the disk (whereas in reality it should be looking in d:)



click start- my computer to check which drive has the windows folder and then rename the drive if neccessary.



feel free to mail me for further advice/help

AVG Anti virus and McAfee virus scan are supposed to help a lot.check out http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-sAFtLsc8e... for more details.
Use Avg Free (look on google.colm or download.com)



Use the free version



Then Scan, it will take HOURS! i mean like overnight hours but it works great!



then go to www.download.com and type in the serach bar "SpyBot" then use the set up and let it scan and then scan every week or so.

How to get rid of Exploit.ani?

AVG detected this virus on my laptop...now my Windows XP takes 20 minutes to startup....what do I need to do to get rid of this? Also what are some software I can download for free to protect my computer? Do I need spyware...adware..firewall?



I have right now only AVG antivirus...



How to get rid of Exploit.ani?network security



First you must clean-up the current infection.



Run both of these on-line scans and let them remove what they find. Both are free and excellent at detecting and removing malware free of charge. There is no need to un-install your current protections before using these.



1. Scan for virus, worms, dialers, etc. and remove (free online scan, no download) with BitDefender's Online Scanner



http://www.bitdefender.com/site/home/



2. Scan for trojans, adware, and spyware and remove (free online scan, no download) with Ewido Online Scanner ( now known as AVG Anti-Spyware). This is NOT the same as AVG Anti-Virus.



http://www.ewido.net/en/



These scans will take quite a bit of time. The time is necessary to clean-up an infected computer.



Now you must protect your computer from getting re-infected.



Go to Windows Update and update your Windows with all critical updates. Windows issued a "patch" for the ".ani" vulnerability about a month ago. Just click Tools and then Windows Updates and follow the instructions.



After you get all critical software updates, reboot and go back to Windows Updates again as there is actually updates to some updates!



A properly updated computer would not have been infected in the first place!



Good luck.

Info on AVG AntiVirus Software?

I am looking for any information, good or bad, that you can give me on AVG AntiVirus Software.



I have done google searches but I can't find many reviews. I would not be going with the free version as it does not have any spyware protection.



If anyone can recomend any other VP or let me know which ones *not* to use, that would also be appreciated.



Info on AVG AntiVirus Software?network



For a test report, go here:http://www.av-comparatives.org/



and click "Comparatives" on the left, then choose #15.



The paid (anti malware) version of AVG is basically just a combination of the free AVG anti-virus and the free AVG anti-spyware. Pretty much a rip-off if you ask me.



Info on AVG AntiVirus Software?norton



I would personally reccommend AVG 7.5, or norton antivirus/spyware.
I like AVG (http://free.grisoft.com), personally, because it is free, effective, and user-friendly.



If you want Anti-Spyware, download Spybot Search and Destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org).
AVG free is excellent. I've been using it for almost a year. For free spyware software, get Spybot and Ad-Aware. Now you're covered!
I use AVG 7.5, and never had a problem, plus it takes up less memory space than Norton. I also use Ad Aware SE Pro for deep scanning.
AVG is done by Grisoft (http://www.grisoft.com) and works fine for what it is meant to do. There are many other programs available, have a look at this site and see what's there for anti-virus and anti-spyware. They're all free programs like AVG, but some may have an upgrade option.



http://www.filehippo.com
Hi, AVG is actually really nice. Your system will be safe with it. Also if u like u could get Norton Anti Virus. Whatever u do please don't get McAfee, it SUCKS. That is the worst protection program ever. Also if u want free stuff then just get these:



AVG Free:



http://free.grisoft.com



or



Avast Anit virus:



http://www.avast.com



For spyware get:



Spybot: http://www.download.com



If u r using Xp, the best firewall is Comodo and its free:

Family filters to download?

My kids are using internet more and just pulled up some pretty rough stuff. Is there a family filter I can download for free that won't infect my computer with spyware and actually works?



Family filters to download?nortan antivirus



Windows has its own parental controls you can adjust them to protect your children. You need to limit what they have access to.



To set up a new Limited account in Windows XP, click the Start button, then select Control Panel %26gt; User Accounts and follow the instructions.



To do this in Windows Vista, click the Start button %26gt; Control Panel %26gt; User Accounts and Family Safety %26gt; User Accounts and then follow the instructions.

I need serious help. I tried Zone Alarm, CCleaner, Spybot Search and Destroy, Registry Mechanic, Microsoft Defender. Tried free version of Webroot Spysweeper and PC Tools Spyware Doctor.



Please help. If I won't fix this then I should just probably format Windows. This is kind of inconvenient though, since I don't have enough memory. HELP and THANKS. =[

Your machine must have been compromised better you should format your PC then install some good spyware such as AVG to protect your PC from getting infected.

How do you delete files like host and registry key files?

I use this program to scan my system, STOPzilla, but its just a free trial scan and it says i have spyware as a registry key such as "hklm\software\microsoft\compression" and i have a host file and the location saying "66.98.148.65 auto.search.msn.com" and i was wondering how to delete this problem.



How do you delete files like host and registry key files?nortin



Its a false positive. The hosts entry is just the default search provider for Internet Explorer. STOPzilla is known for alot of ridiculous false positives.It used to contain spyware a few years ago. I hear they stopped distributing spyware, but it's still a mediocre program. I hear the pop-up blocker is the best part of it.



How do you delete files like host and registry key files?pc security



You can edit the Hosts file entries in Notepad. But, just like the Registry, make a full backup of it before you start. Deleting entries is fairly simple, just highlight them, click backspace then Save.



I've never liked popup blockers because they usually stop what's already infecting your computer. Use a firewall, an antivirus and some anti-spyware applications.
You can manually delete the key by going Start %26gt; run %26gt; "regedit"



Then search for the key yourself.



Let me warn you first, be sure to back up your registry before you do anything because your computer may suffer from permanent damages should you try to delete any keys which are necessary for the start up of your computer. If I were you, I won't touch those stuffs. I will probably ignore that spyware that STOPzilla claims it is. Don't trust it!

The Core 2 is one of the best, and is a great OC'er.



2gb of ram (like mine, except mines 800mhz) is cool



320 gb of space (same as mine)



that x1300 just is quite unexpected in there.



How much would my computer be worth right now?pop up blocker



Considering if you were selling it with the OS disc and all included software, etc, this system would likely fetch I would say around $675-$1200. This range is optimum and the lower portion is more likely than the higher. From the experience as a computer builder and IT, the processor brings the price up, but your major pitfall is that this system is used and not "new" and as such must be asessed as a depreciated item without warranty. I would say a fair price would be in the range of $600 to $850.
1300-1500 usd

How can I save videos on my computer from sites like youtube.?

Try VideoGet. It downloads from YouTube and other 200+ video websites. And convert them into MP3, WMV, AVI, MPG, 3GP, MP4, etc



How can I save videos on my computer from sites like youtube.?product key



There are two ways you can do this.



1. Use software that will download the video and convert it to a mpeg or avi format.



I use an add on to Firefox called Fast Video Download. The youtube video is saved to your PC as a .flv file. Then you need to convert the .flv file to an mpeg file using software such as Riva http://www.rivavx.com/index.php?encoder%26...



A simpler way which does not involve installing software to your PC is http://vixy.net where the conversion is done online. However Vixy doesn't always work, so it's best not to try it when you're short of time.



2. Install Real Player 11 which allows you to both download and view Youtube .flv (Flash) files. http://uk.real.com/player/more

no, it works OK in ma computer, me and my dad use it to download music and the mp3s are of very good quality, u just have to be careful and check things before u download them
yea my computer runs slow.
The only thing that works on Limewire is the short porno stuff. I'd stay away.
yes it messes up your computer big time!

no my i downloade music videos never got a virus ever dumb monkeys if it's a .exe program it could be a virus don't download programs your not aware of
nope it works fine on my mp3 player
Our Limewire works ok. Haven't tried getting viruses from downloading. Sometimes though, it's works slowly.
nope i do now use any p2p software program at all

Need limewire info?

i was told that with limewire you can download music and movies for free but is it safe, does it have spyware, viruses,etc.?



Need limewire info?norton ghost



No it is NOT "safe". ALL P2P has inherrant risks. If you are well educated you can minimize those risks. If you are not well versed in computers, you shouldn't use P2P. Limewire bearshare and frost appeal to the least educated and most naieve of all computer users and virus distributers know that and exploit it. The program itself is ok, its the users that are the problem, both those posting and those who are not knowledgable about computers to use P2P.



The music is NOT free. You may have physical possession of the file, but that does NOT mean you can play it legally. A month ago a girls parents had to pay 3000 fine and over 10,000 in legal fees. Also free music isn't so free if it turns your 2,000 computer into the performance of a 200 dollar computer.



I work for a large mfgr. Of the calls we recieve each day, about 75% are problems caused by spyware/malware/greyware/virus and of those a very large percentage have limewire. Yes, it may be because limewire users are less sophisticated.



Need limewire info?software



Using Limewire, Kazza or ANY OTHER peer-to-peer (P2P) programs to illegally steal music, software and movies etc. without paying for it, is one of the leading causes of virus and spyware infections. Many downloads using P2P file-sharing programs are loaded with malware

What Is A Safe Alternative To LimeWire?

In the "similar questions" thing below where you post your question, there was an individual who recommended a program called "Filetopia" as an alternative to LimeWire.



Awhile back, I had spyware "take over" my computer and I had to get it repaired for $90 and the guy who fixed it advised against me using LimeWire anymore as it has a history of planting spyware. Does anyone know of a safe and free alternative to LimeWire? Safe meaning that it won't mess with my computer with things like spyware, viruses, etc.



What Is A Safe Alternative To LimeWire?norton internet security 2008



I have found bit torrents to be the safest means of file transfer, but not completely safe. Refraining from P2P all together would be your best bet.



What Is A Safe Alternative To LimeWire?spyware removal



FrostWire http://www.frostwire.com
I use a p2p site called thepiratebay. I downloaded azureus vuze (sp?) for bit torrents to work with thepiratebay files. The te has a link for azureus or you can type in azureus. It isnt all that fast because I usually download whole albums at once but if there are a lot of seeders it goes pretty fast.
the first rule of downloading things off the internet, is that there will always be potential problem if you do stupid things, including downloading. limewire is one of the worst programs to use for downloading. alternatives like firewire are no better. they work on a peer-2-peer network where you are reliant on one person for a file so it's slow for larger files and you don't know if the file you are downloading is legit. moreover many of the programs are ridden with spyware for example kaza had a spyware built into it so that's why people switched over to kaza lite.



the best alternatives to limewire would be torrents or irc. torrents are simpler to use. torrents are files broken up into a bunch of little pieces. seeders are people who are sharing the entire complete file. leechers are people with only certain parts of the files. you use torrent programs like utorrent or bitcomet which will locate and reassemble all the pieces for you. the more leechers and seeders the better and faster. this is more efficient for larger files because you aren't reliant on one person for the file. for more detailed the best info site is slyck.com

I can't delete Pest Capture?

I have Windows XP. I was notified that I was infected with Trojan and other viri. It was suggested to down load various free scans. Pest Capture was my choise only because it was the first one. After download and free scan it reported that I had malware and spyware viri and I should purchase the license to continue. Since I don't like to give credit card info over the Net I declined. Now I have this Huge dialogue Pest Capture box on my screen and am unable to delete because it states the "uninstall or remove has been disabled". And it's TRUE. I went into the Control Panel to Add or Remove.....etc. and can't delete it.......A close friend suggested that I Re-Format my Windows XP but being a novice I"m not sure if I could do it. I got a price of $50 but I would really like to see if I could do it myself. It's not the cost I'd just like to try. I've been looking to up-date to a better computer anyway (this one's 10-yrs. old) so I couldn't do any more damage. Can someone walk me thru it?

pest capture (Pest Capture) is a ransom ware anti-spy ware product that is promoted and installed by the Zlob Trojan.

Adware Alert (Ad-ware se 2007) Is this program recommended?

I'm going to buy this program since i have like 2000 files infected, but i'm just wondering if it's fake.



Like i heard some of these scanners first add fake infected files onto there, just so you'll buy them.



So is it anygood, or no?



If it's not good, i need a really good scanner that'll get every infected/virus/spyware etc off of my computer for good.



Free or not.



Adware Alert (Ad-ware se 2007) Is this program recommended?adware



Well, I went and looked for it in Yahoo! and found the website, NO it's not Ad-aware Se its different, but it is on "download.com" website, which is affiliated by C-Net. So there "alright" in my book, but it's up to you. Ad-aware Se is better, I have been using it for years, three or 4 so far....great program, easy and simple and runs really fast. I also have Reg Mechanic, Norton (but runs slow, and bogs my 2.4 gig down) AVG (runs a bit faster than norton) and PC Tools Antivirus (same makers of Registry Mechanic) and i still get some viruses, but I get rid of them too and keep most of them out. Good luck.



Adware Alert (Ad-ware se 2007) Is this program recommended?antivirus scan



I have not used Adaware SE 2007 yet, but I have used the AdAware Line for years. You can get the free version from www.lavasoft.de and try it out. Like I said, I have used it for years - the free version that is. I also use Spybot Search and Destroy from www.safer-networking.org. Both scanners seem to find different things but find a lot of the same spyware, adware and malware. Additional software from www.javacoolsoftware.com would be SpywareBlaster and Spyguard. You install those two and basically forget them - except for updates. The first two you need to schedule scans or perform manual scans periodically. Hope this helps...
is it Ad-aware 2007? I have this software but it sucks. Cannot remove malware totally. Try Spyware Doctor. It is very good. If u want the full version, buy it or download it from hacker websites.
I've used that program for a couple years it is great. I recommend it. You can download the free version of it from there web site as well

Why is my computer slow?anti virus protection



1)Stomp auto-starting programs. Click Start %26gt; Run and type "msconfig" at the prompt. Click the Startup tab and look at all that junk that loads when you launch your PC. Do you really need "Adobe Reader Speed Launch"? Probably not. Turn off anything else that looks useless, but be careful not to disable Windows system components.



2) Clean up the disk. Uninstall unneeded programs (especially those that run at startup and/or put something in the system tray), run Disk Cleanup, and defragment the drive. This is a good first step that will almost always take a few seconds off boot time and application loads for any computer.



3) Run a full anti-virus and anti-spyware scan. I would recommend using AVG Free Anti-virus, AVG Anti-Spyware, Spybot, Ad-Aware.



4) Clean up the registry. This is controversial, as some experts claim registry cleaners don't really help. I've seen evidence to the contrary, so I recommend doing it if you've got a major slowdown. CCleaner is free and worth running.

My computer is infected!?

My computer s infected by spyware.What are the best and cheapest ( preferably free) ways to get rid of this?



My computer is infected!?anti virus scan



To search for spyware and disinfect, try the program "Ad-Aware". I personally use this program and I recommend it to everybody.



You can find the latest version of Ad-Aware at this link:

Spybot Search and Destroy works nice.



Also, Ad-Aware (Apparently it's supposed to be spelled this way, not how I had it before, Adaware).



Both are free programs that will help.
it is very hard to remove spyware it is 100 times worse than viruses, try Kerio, it is not a antivirus software it is a firewall, you can only block the spyware from sending info out of your comouter aslo stop it from getting viruses and adverts if you know the name of you spyware,i strongly recommand you NOT to download any spyware remover software as they are spyware them selves, the best method is to reboot ur pc, you can reboot it withought loosing ur work, by repair or install on anoth drive, try system restore first before rebooting
Download and run smitfraudfix .
