I was browsing the internet and suddenly my internet stopped receiving packets and wouldn't work at all. So I restarted my computer and then as soon as I connected, ZoneAlarm appeared with a message saying:
ZoneAlarm Security Alert - Dangerous Behaviour:DrWatson Postmortem debugger is trying to communicate with SVCHOST.exe -k netsvcs by opening its process.
For some reason zonealarm gives me the following pop-up every time I boot up my computer : ZoneAlarm Security Alert/Server Program/ Generic Host Process for Win 32 Services is trying to act as a server. Identification: None Application: svchost.exe Source IP: 0.0.0.0:Port 135 I click : "remember this setting" [or I used to] and it does NOT remember - it comes up every time.I've tried rooting around in Zonealarm to figure out how to turn this off - no luck. Any ideas folks????

View 3 Replies View RelatedOften, when attempting to download a particular file, I will get the Security Alert message: "Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded." For example, this message appears when attempting to download IE 8 and regardless of the security settings, firewall on or off, etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI definitley have some sort of virus on my computer and all sorts of pop ups keep coming up on my computer encouraging me to buy a program. I can't get to any other websites besides the one for this program as an alert pops up on the browser sayng my computer is infected. Also everytime I try to open a file a "Windows Security Alert" pops up and says that whatever file I sm trying to open is infected. This is a probloem because I have tried opening task manager, system configuration, and even using the run function wiuth different commands and nothing will open! I also tried downloaging Ad-aware on my external harddrive and then running it from there but it won't open either!

View 17 Replies View RelatedI was checking out a website online when a window with the Microsoft Windows Security logo popped up indicating infection with several types of Trojans/viruses. I did not make a note of them but the boxes all had green check marks against the purported trojans/viruses. I believe it instructed me to download something Instead, I immediately shut down my pc, and ran Scans in Safe Mode and also did an online scan with Trendmicro housecall. All the scans showed 0 infections. I am therefore wondering what this was all about as the Security alert had the exact logo as the Microsoft Windows Security.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have the following - XP.Professional + SP2. Sound Max audio digital integrated system My computer is not a special make, it is a tower that has had items built into it. Recently, when playing CDs or listening to any sound, the sound has been sounding as if it comes through water! It is like listening to a voice talking whilst gargling.I am not able to find a reason, neither am I able to find a way to correct this. I am not too 'good' with computers and I do not have a CD for Sound Max with which I could re-install it if I were to remove the programme.
View 8 Replies View RelatedLet me first start off by saying, I've recently installed the Service Pack 2 for Windows XP and no problems. (yet) Anyways, with it, there is a firewall available. Is it safer than ZoneAlarm for example? I don't know if I can trust it.
View 10 Replies View RelatedThe first time I log in after I turn on my computer, I can't run anything that I have a shortcut for on the desktop, because it will freeze for a while. The reason for this is probably too many things starting with the computer at start-up.I regularly scan for spyware with Spybot, and rarely get anything. I also have ZoneAlarm as my firewall.
View 14 Replies View RelatedRunning win 2000 pro SP4. every time i reboot, certain program settings are lost. for example, my zonealarm settings are lost, and all program net access authorizations have to be re-authorized, when the programs attempt to connect to the net. It will not remember the "always use this answer" option, that you can check in zonealarm to keep from having to continue to re-authorize the program each time it is run. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI downloaded ZoneAlarm and Spybot S&D. Things worked ok until I got a little tired of all the ZA balloons popping up and went in to try to lessen the frequency of them. Afterwards, I got to where I couldn't access things that I had before the attempted change. I used "system restore" back to "pre-installation of ZA and Spybot". Things seem to be normal but I feel that I do need (i am told) of the protection that the two downloads offer. Now when I try to download ZA and Spybot and try to install from my desktop, a window appears saying that the install is corrupt.
How can I get a good install of each of these? If I can get them back, I'll just click the balloons off my screen, no matter how many times they appear. I do have a lot of posts prior to this one ( Re: Spyware Infection[in this section-3 to 4 days ago]). I am VERY computer challanged (as a few Moderators here know by now) so instructions need to be simple.
I have a new PC that has XP Home sp2 on it. I have only had it since December but twice it has "crashed" whilst I have been downloading stuff. When I reboot it I get the message "your pc has recovered from a serious error" but I cannot find out what this error is. Everyhting then runs fine.

I haven't been to this site for a while and I noticed I'm getting Security Warnings that my security settings has blocked of an ActiveX install. I know how to change those settings, but am reluctant to do so. Can anyone shed some light on this. I occasionally will get similar warnings on other sites, but it is consistant on this one. Once in a while IE6 will hang up on this and I'll have to got to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to get out of it.

Some message opened and said I'd have to allow something to happen so without thinking I stupidly allowed it. Now almost all my folders have this annoying blue task bar running down the left side of the folders. It's a royal pain, takes up space on the page and I can't seem to find how to undo the damn thing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I was about to use Norton Speed Disk to defrag, I noticed about 4 Gigs of "unmovable" file space allocated at the end of my C disk which was not there twenty four hours ago. The same space on the disk is listed as "Allocated" by Auslogics Defrag program. I defrag about every other day so I know it wasn't there before. The only major change I've made recently was to install SP3. But I also installed SP3 on my laptop and have noticed no such evidence of any file that huge listed as "unmovable" by Speed Disk or "Allocated" by Auslogics Defrag program like I have on my desktop. Another interesting thing is that when booted in Safe Mode that file does not appear in the disk usage graphics for those two defrag programs. And, in Safe Mode, my "free space" is increased by about 4 Gigs compared when booted normally. This huge file only appears when booted normally. Maybe you might think that with hard drives so huge these days I should just not worry about it. The computer seems to be running okay. But it bothers me to have this huge file, or whatever it is, just suddenly appear and take up so much space. Can anybody help me figure out what this is and get rid of it?

I do not have any Office apps installed on my PC however, Seemingly from out of nowhere ctfmon.exe has appeared on my startup list and as many times as i have unchecked it from starting, the next time Windows starts and i run mconfig.THERE IS AGAIN.Is this causing any harm? Could it be some kind of virus or spyware or malware? Should I just leave it alone and let it startup with Windows or should I remove it from my system so it cannot return to startup.If I should get rid of it PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN REMOVE IT SAFELY. I would prefer to remove it if I can because I don't like the idea of an uneccesary process running in the background on my system.

How can I remove these 2 icons. The name of the 2 icons are the same in Tagalog, it says 10 sampung utos ng manginginom and then when it opens up on the very top where the blue thing is, it says Destrukto & in the address or information bar it says C:\WINDOWSsystem32destrukto.html.
