May 11, 2005On my computer are installed (besides the XP firewall), MS AntiSpyware Beta 1, AVG7.0.308 and LavaSoft Adaware 6. Do I need all three, or would AntiSpyware do the job alone?

Jul 15, 2005Just upgraded to the new beta version of Microsoft Antispyware that was released in June 2005.It keeps downloading and installing the same definitions, and reports that the new definitions are installed. When I click on updates, it does the same over and over again. I don't believe the new definitions are actually being installed. Is anybody else having the same problem?I uninstalled and reinstalled the MS Antispyware software and
the same problem remains
PC Won't Boot Up - Slew Of Antispyware
Feb 1, 2009I hope somebody can help me, although I suspect the PC has breathed it's last. On starting up, it hangs and won't go any further. I get the system information screen, then it just stops and the light doesn't flicker at all. I don't get any beeps either which I suspect is not a good sign. Does anybody have any suggestions for what I might do next? The PC is running (or not as the case may be) Windows

Sep 6, 2006I am running XP Pro and have two accounts on my computer. Last night when my wife signed in on her account (I was previously signed in) she noticed a PONG sound which repeated itself about every five seconds. She doesn't remember exactly when it started but she thinks it started after she signed in and before starting any applications. I couldn't locate a source so I turned off her computer hoping whatever was causing it would cease and desist.No such luck. The same thing happed again tonight. I signed on first with no problem, but shortly after she signed on to her account the ponging started again. This time I did a restart and signed on to her account first. Great! No pong sound! But as soon as I signed into my own account it started again. In fact it is happening right now as I write this. Can you hear it? I am running ProcessGuard and RegDefend, along with a slew of antispyware. Nothing has come up, and my computer seems to be running fine otherwise. Anyone have any ideas what is causing this? I have never heard of this before (pun intended).

Also, when launching Outlook Express ,any browser and Word are really slow also. Excel is fine. Seems really odd. I've run antivirus, antispyware, defrag all to no avail

View 11 Replies View RelatedMS's Beta Of Onecare
Aug 17, 2005testing MS's beta of Windows Onecare I installed it about 5 days ago and first impressions have been very favorable. It includes a firewall, anti-virus app, backup & restore feature, scheduled tune-up (defrag, etc) automatic updates. Nice for a beta software, no glitches yet and I have tested the backup/restore feature using dvd-rw media. The firewall is inbound / outbound detection unlike XP's built-in. You do have to disable / remove any existing firewall / anti-virus before installation. This might be a subscription service after beta, but may well be worth it, especially for new / in-experienced PC users. But anyone can benefit from the many features, built-in backup to CD / DVD

Installed IE 7 Beta 2
Feb 1, 2006I installed IE 7 beta 2 this morning and afterward I went to Help Center to check my restore points.When I click on the "Undo changes to your computer with SYSTEM RESTORE", on the right-hand side of Help Center nothing happens.I can get at my restore points using "Performance and Maintenance" in the left side of the Help Center and using the Restore Wizard.They look valid.I can also create a new restore point from here.
I have a very clean system and do manual checkpoints almost daily. I resized the restore points cache; turned restore off and on and booted in safe mode only to get the same results.By the way, I have had no problems with IE 7 or any other programs since installing IE 7.

Sp2 Beta License Problem?
Jul 22, 2005I was a SP2 beta tester(wondering if you were as well?) and didn't upgrade to the official RTM version.My own personal opinion is that the license for the beta timed out and is now throwing a hissy.I can get the comp to boot up into safe mode just fine (which is why I am positive it's not hardware related) so auto update either dl'd something last night and it's conflicting or it's the sp2 beta license problem.

Jul 16, 2005I've been using MS Anti-Spyware Beta 1 for several weeks. Recently, when trying to update, the program says it downloads and installs updates but when I check for future updates the same one supposedly already downloaded and installed shows up again. For example, I got to definitions 5729, but 5733 was but wasn't installed several times; and then it was 5735 the same. So I uninstalled the program and downloaded and reinstalled it. Now I have definitions 5725 and have tried without success to download and install 5735 several times. Anyone got any ideas what the problem might be? I also have Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, Bazooka, and Spyware Blaster.

View 14 Replies View RelatedGet Uninstall File For Intenet Explorer Beta
Aug 6, 2006Last week I posted a question to this forum regarding the trouble I was having uninstalling Explorer Beta 2 (you can't install Beta 3 until you UNINSTALL beta 2). I got some very good suggestions -- system restore, trying REinstalling beta 2, etc. but none of them worked. Beta 2 won't reinstall unless you uninstall, restoring back to earlier times resurrected other demons and glitches I had solved, etc. What I believed happened is part of my overzealous file maintenance. I usually delete all those windows update Uninstall files that clutter up the Windows directory. Who knew that one of them was probably the uninstall file for Explorer Beta 2?

May 6, 2008If you decide to uninstall IE 8 Beta 1 and revert back to IE 7, you will likely discover that its entry in the Add/Remove Programs list does not offer an uninstall option, especially if you installed the XP SP3 upgrade afterwards.
This is how to uninstall it:
Navigate to the C:WINDOWSIE8SPUNINST folder and then open it to expose its list of files.
Double-click the SPUNINST.EXE file to start the uninstall process.
Ignore the warning that uninstalling it may cause some of your installed programs not to work.
Restart your computer when prompted to.
When you start IE 7 for the first time, follow the directions to select your personal settings.
Run a scan at the Windows Updates site.
Uninstall IE8 Beta Back To IE7: IE Starts To Load And Disappears?
Sep 30, 2008I decided to Delete IE8 Beta yesterday but after it caused probs for my XP operating system I looked up on here how to revert back to IE7 (I don't have SP3 DL'd so it seemed like an easy fix). But now everytime I try to open IE it starts to load and then just disapears (No error message or anything) I ran ad-aware and AVG and found nothing so I don't think its a malware problem. But I went ahead and ran HJT in case you guys can tell something by looking at it. I think I royally messed up this time & I just hope someone can help me out I'm using Mozilla right now but hate that I cannot copy/paste so I really need IE back.
