View 4 Replies View Relatedso my Norton Internet Security expired on my Asus laptop and I uninstalled it and Norton LiveUpdate. My internet worked fine. Then I installed AVG 8.5 antivirus and as soon as I rebooted the machine my internet stopped working. It says "the connection keeps resetting" when I try and get on the internet, and I cannot update the AVG now. I did turn on the Windows Firewall right after restarting, but after turning it back off, I'm still without internet. I'm using a NetGear wireless router connected to a broadband modem.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSP1 turned on system restore without turning on system restore:shock: I don't use system restore and had it turned off prior to SP1. I noticed disc space declining, almost 5gigs since the update. When I checked to see if SP1 turned it back on, it showed that it was still disabled but with a "most recent restore point" dated March 18th! System restore is off but creating restore points?! I turned it back on and turned it off again, which eliminated the existing phantom restore points. This is the only glitch that I've noticed with SP1 on my system thus far, but with "everyone else" having problems, this service pack is without a doubt half-baked. I wonder what other SP1 mysteries await me?

Don't know the reason, I don't recall having changed anything myself. Then I tried to find the reason, and when I went back to the themes, etc., I was able to get back the color but then I notice that the lettering and the graphics is somwaht changed, maybe more modern or streamlined. Has there been an update to Vista Ultimate, what I have, that is causing this?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have just started having problems sending emails, I am receiving my emails with no problems. I have even added the windows mail to be allowed through the firewall. I don't know if there was a windows update that has caused the problem since I have not had problems like this before. A window pops up stating....your server has unexpectedly terminated the connections. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or longer periods of inactivity. Error number 0x800CCCoF. My internet provides say there is no problem on their end and that it must be a firewall problem.

I have a Vista computer with the following Antivirus / spyware removal programs
- Eset NOD32 v2.7
- Spy bot search and destry
- SuperAntispyware
- Ad aware
- Windows defender
All the software is updated with the latest "definitions"

Do I need more software like that to be safe?
I think this is too much software installed to just take care of virus and spyware threats. For it seems like virus is not soo big problem any more. Soo I am wondering isnt it possible to for Microsoft to make something "supersmart" to get rid of spy ware??
Can someone recommend a good spyware program for Vista 64? I've tried PCTOOLS Spy Doctor. It ran and found spyware and removed it, however when I turned the computer on next it had boot errors. I ended up having to work with HP(very good help) and reload Vista from scratch. I hadn't backed up yet, but there was nothing to lose as the computer was one day old, just lost time.

Recently I was infected with the dpevflbg Toolbar. I have Norton 360, Windows defender, and PC Tools Spyware Doctor. This malware got through and I am having trouble removing a couple of remaining issues. The toolbar itself is gone, however, along with the sluggish performance of my computer, I have a banner on almost every web page saying: "Warning possible spyware infection! Click here to scan your computer for spyware and adware" The target URL for the 'Click here' is protect.trustedantivirus.com...with some extra identifying back slashes: MTY4Nzc=/2/5993/ed=1/ex=1/h=10/zheltaya_hernya/ I have searched out removal methods and am unable to remove this extreemly annoying banner:mad:.

View 4 Replies View RelatedRunning Windows XP my cousin ended up with an infestation of spyware and adware after AVG ran out and it stopped updating.I installed AVG 8.5 ran a scan, it disinfected winlogon.exe and then blue screened. After a reboot and another scan winlogon.exe was no longer infected but other files were. It seems to have disinfected them. The only thing left is a popup that comes up everytime IE is started. I can't figure out what is causing it. I ran ad aware - it disposed of a few things but he still gets that popup when IE starts.

View 9 Replies View RelatedNeed a good free anti spyware program that runs well with Vista Home Premium. I downloaded the bought version 8.0 and began having problems with the computer lagging, and generally slow all over, not thinking it was AVG, I checked every other possible issue that I thought may be causing it. Eventually it lead to AVG, as things had been good prior to installation. I completely removed AVG and everything returned to normal, great! But then I done a further download of the program again, and once again the problems began. Is there a good alternative Anti Spyware program that is recommended ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using vista home premium with a 64-bit operating system. I have Avast free antivirus installed. I started getting messages from Vista Defender that my computer was being attacked by viruses, spyware and trojan horses. When I clicked "remove all" they wanted me to buy something. I restarted my computer and I am no longer getting the vista defender warnings, but I can't access several programs like windows media player, yahoo messenger etc.
Also, the icons for these programs disappeared from my task bar. When I try to launch these programs from the start menu I get a message that says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item". I'm the only one that uses this computer.
I added a second monitor to the GeForce 7100 GS using a DVI-VGA adapter and for the life of me cannot get it to display anything, the monitor is just in sleep mode. I've got the latest driver, Windows is up to date, checked the cables, tried another adapter, tried everything but, still nothing. The second monitor shows up in the device manager and in the Nvidia control panel. It's enabled and set to extend desktops. It seems the system knows it's there because I can move the mouse over, but cannot see anything. The power light on the second monitor just flashes. I've swapped monitors over, to make sure there's not a problem with the display and it's fine. When I do that, the main monitor is then plugged in to the DVI adapter and then that one goes to sleep. Just seems whichever monitor is plugged in to the DVI-VGA adapter just doesn't want to work........
