Is there some sort of Antivirus boot cd?

Some sort of antivirus program that runs in DOS (without having to have like norton installed) that will do a virus scan? For instance if the computer is so screwed up that nothing can run.



Is there some sort of Antivirus boot cd?computer protection



If the problem is virus related, the best best is to yank the hard drive and install it in a good running computer as a slave drive. Now scan with the good computers virus scanner. Many virus scan install disks also will boot a limited scanner.

Hi,



You can use Norton itself to bootup scan.. Use Notron Antivirus bootable CD.. it will scan your HDD when you system tries to boot!!!



Cheers!!!



jAY
yeah
Hiren's Boot CD has many utilitities within it. It also a few Anti-virus software loaded which run of the CD, but you do have to download the virus patches and copy it into the Virus def folders before you burn the CD. It's a bootable CD and the anti-virus prog's can do a full system scan. But you need to have a p2p program to download this software.



And there's also Stinger from McAfee, which clean's not all but some of the major high rish viruses from your system
ya



go for original Norton Antivirus CDs



they r bootable ones

NOD32 or Avira are both very good antivirus programs - whether they can clean the infection(s) or not depends on the infection! Some are more difficult to remove than others and require a specialised removal tool or manual removal. You could also try booting your PC into safe mode and doing a scan.

How do I remove "XP antivirus protection" from my computer?

My computer has been infected with spyware called "XP Antivirus Protection." What is the best way to remove this spyware? Will McAfee remove it if I subscribe to that?



Thanks for your help.



How do I remove "XP antivirus protection" from my computer?computer security



Free - For starters, download, update and run a full scan using SuperAntiSpyware (SAS) http://www.superantispyware.com/



SAS is an exceptionally easy to use application that will remove the majority of difficult Trojans and Worms, not just the easy ones. In addition it has the ability to remove Vundo and Smitfraud infections. SAS can lock your home page to prevent browser hi-jacking attempts.



If possible it is recommended that you load SAS in normal mode but run it in Safe Mode. Safe Mode can be started by continually pressing F8 during the boot sequence. If you are badly infected you might need to run SAS more than once to help clean your system. Afterwards if the only infections now being shown are in System Restore, once you are completely satisfied that you can boot normally, you can either delete the infected restore points manually, or temporarily turn off System Restore to purge the files.



Assuming you have some real awkward infections that persist even after trying all the above I suggest you download a dedicated Smitfraud removal program from:

How do i activate the 'advanced firewall' in norton antivirus 2007 (vista edition) ?

Im using norton antivirus the 2nd edition and its not providing my computer with full protection only the 'Active armor firewall' or 'advanced firewall' is turned off i dont no how to turn it on i tried to go in options settings but no use.



[When u open norton antivirus in the 2nd panel in 'Internet security' or cumthin its showing advanced firewall with a red mark means turned off]



Im using it on XP sp2



note: nav 2007 [vista edition] supports both xp nd vista]



I tried both turning off and on my windows firewall too but no use. Please help me.



How do i activate the 'advanced firewall' in norton antivirus 2007 (vista edition) ?computer



I can't really answer your question, but I wanted to let you know that Norton's is not the best for your computer. I had it and my computer started to run EXTREMELY slow to the point where we could hardly start it without it freezing. When I took it in to be repaired they told me that there was a lot of dust plus Nortons was not good for my computer (Dell with windows XP) and that the reason it ran so slow was because Nortons takes up A LOT of space on your hard drive. So they removed it and installed a program called AVG 7.5 and Ad-Aware. I've had no problem since....it's MUCH easier to update and generally use.

have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. Hope this helps.

What happens if my Norton Symantec Antivirus Subscription stopped?

Should I install another Antivirus? Or will it still protect my computer from viruses? But if I install a new one won't they distrub each other? By the way I also cannot disable Symantec by right clicking on it on the task bar could that be due to the fact that the subscription stopped?



What happens if my Norton Symantec Antivirus Subscription stopped?ducati



What should happen is that you uninstall Norton (use norton's uninstaller, not 'add/remove programs' - look in the start menu, they usually have a link to their uninstaller there) and use the free AVG instead: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/us/frt/...



=)



Usually AV programs with expired subscriptions still stay 'on', but don't get any updates anymore. That means they protect you less and less every day, because they won't detect new viruses.



ADDED: oh and if you had the norton suite (complete with firewall) then install comodo as your new firewall. http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/



What happens if my Norton Symantec Antivirus Subscription stopped?hp



Norton is the worst software in the world. It is a rogue software and it is not user friendly.



There is a way to remove it and the tool to remove it is available on their website, www.symantec.com



Use it and delete it.



Geeesh.......I hate that program. Norton Ghost simply takes over your computer and it does not allow you choices.



About the subscription, no it won't stop working. It will continue to annoy you and ask you to download latest version etc... It is a pain in the butt.



Only thing is if you do not upgrade, it will not update the new virus definitions and your virus protection will get out of date very soon.



I found AVG software free edition is good, user friendly and it does not bother your computer and it does not take over everything. I highly recommend you to install that after removing Norton.



I will never go near Norton again.

Can I add more than one antivirus & firewall to my computer?

Im still new at this: I have road runner for service %26 it comes with Antivirus protection already %26 the works.



I recently clicked %26 had my computer scanned %26 checked for how safe my computer is %26 Mcafee recommended for me to install SECURE IE %26 PRIVATE IE ? What should I do?



Can I add more than one antivirus %26 firewall to my computer?firewall



you can have as many as you like as long as you only run then one at a time.firewall %26 anti virus if more than 1 running will slow you down or crash the pc.now you can however have several spyware %26 addware tools running at same time.its just firewalls %26 anti virus tools that dont play well together. and as for the recomendations that is up to you. you dont need them but can use them. good luck.



Can I add more than one antivirus %26 firewall to my computer?husqvarna



The rule is one anti-virus %26 one firewall installed on your computer, if there's 2 of each they will conflict %26 cause problems.



SECURE IE is a browser add-on that blocks unauthorized ActiveX Controls, Java script, cookies and file downloads.



PRIVATE IE erases internet tracks.



They are both from Winferno %26 automate tasks that you could do yourself, so they are OK--if they are free. I wouldn't pay for them

Why my pc is not supportng antivirus?

why my pc is not supporting antivirus



Why my pc is not supportng antivirus?free adware remover



It could be several reasons:



Check the box(or the website) of your antivirus, and make sure that your computer meets the recomended specifications. That right there could be the problem.



If your computer does meet the system requirements, then the next the to check is to see if you are already running another antivirus. Antiviruses don't play nice with each other, so if you already have one, it won't like the new one.

Personally I like Avast, but AVG is also good. With Avast you can set the resident scanner to high or low. (High makes your PC slower if you don't have enough memory, so you might want to try low)

HELP! Norton Internet Security or Nortan AntiVirus??

Hello,



Which one is better??...i need to update really soon!! I use the internet alot and in the past i've had problems with Nortan Antivirus..a'lerting 'about 'viruses'..but not doing anything about them..which really doesn't help me much!! Thanks in advance = )



HELP! Norton Internet Security or Nortan AntiVirus??free spyware remobal



There are better and more resource-friendly security applications on the market these days.



AVG Anti-virus Free Edition and AVG Anti-spyware Free Edition are great applications for malware protection. Only problem with AVG Anti-spyware is that the resident shield expires after 30 days which leaves you open to spyware infections. I recommend the TeaTimer resident shield of SpyBot or SpywareGuard to give you some level of resident protection against spyware.



If you are looking for easy management and an one-application for-all-types-of-threats you can always go for AVG Internet Security. You will have protection against several online threats including viruses, spyware and hackers.

Again under the Services tab Check the option named "Hide all Microsoft services". Then click on the "Disable all" button. Again apply and then press ok. Restart the machine and perform a full system scan with the antivirus software installed. Follow the instructions mentioned by the antivirus software. This will solve your problem provided that the virus definition of your antivirus is uptodate.

Trust McAfee.

Install a firewall, activate the Windows Firewall, or both.

How long does complete scanning in antivirus programs usually take?

I have AVG, Pc Tools even ccleaner, but they are taking around 4 hours plus in scanning. They don't really finish scanning because I got really tired when it does not have any progress so i manually stop it after 4 hours. Even my Disc Cleanup or clearing of temporary internet files doesn't work. I think I may have a virus of some sort because even my internet connection is troublesome. Sometimes, I usually get the cannot find server page, and when I check it up on my internet provider, they say that there's no problem with my connection. All of my antivirus programs are updated and I just can't seem to trace where the problem is.



How long does complete scanning in antivirus programs usually take?free spyware



Only use one at a time. Close all other applications during the scan. I usually scan right before I sleep, so I am not using up my connection speeds, and that makes the anti-virus scans go a lot faster!



Clear out your temp files through your internet browser %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;tools. Clear cache, cookies, private data, etc.



That should help as well!



How long does complete scanning in antivirus programs usually take?live update



45 Minutes - 1 Hour with McAfee
depends on # of your files i have 1,000,000 files and its like 8 hrs
To get rid of the temporary files on your pc (viruses are commonly found in temporary files), download CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) and scan your computer. Running CCleaner shouldn't take more than 10 minutes. Removing these temporary files will make your scans go a lot faster.

Is internet security same as an antivirus program ?or different?

hi i am having a symantec antivirus installed in my system working properly, does i need to install internet security again? or both the same? explain the differences if both are different? can i get a warning even before i download a file that is infected if i install internet security?



Is internet security same as an antivirus program ?or different?hijackthis



internet security and antivirus programs often come packaged together.



Internet security would include things like a pop-up blocker and a firewall to stop bad programs being downloaded.



antivirus I think would scan files which have been downloaded



in general internet security is prevention and antivirus is the cure. Having both is usually a good idea.



edit: yahoo has its own virus scanner for attachments which is separate from anything you have on your computer



Is internet security same as an antivirus program ?or different?malware



i think its the same personally



but my dad who is a boss computer workers learned from them he said 1 is for download the other is for disc that u install
