How can I have my imac start with a login page for security?

This is my first mac. It's a recently bought imac G5. When I turn on the computer it just opens to my desktop. I'd really like a way in which it would open to a login page so not just anybody could turn on my computer and access my files.

How can I have my imac start with a login page for security?norton

Yes.

System Preferences %26gt; Accounts

Select your account on the side

Click "Login Options" on the bottom (may require unlocking)

Uncheck "Automatically log in as ..."

This will start you up with the login screen, and as long as you have a password on your account, you will be prompted for it each time you log in.

How do I get rid of the Windows Security Alerts in my toolbar?

Every 5 minutes a balloon pops up that says, "Your system may be at risk" but I already have antivirus installed. Can this be taken off my computer??

How do I get rid of the Windows Security Alerts in my toolbar?nortonantivirus

Piece of cake:(assuming XP otherwise similar enough, chck the microsft site)

To turn off Security Center alerts

1.

Click Start and then click Control Panel.

2.

Double-click Security Center.

3.

In the Security Center, under Resources, click Change the way Security Center alerts me.

4.

In the Alert Settings dialog box, clear the Firewall, Automatic Updates, or Virus Protection check boxes, and then click OK.

When you use this procedure, the Security Center still displays your status, but does not send you alerts.

Why won't my computer boot up? Service pak 2?

Problem. I have to use an old Toshiba laptop with an early version of XP with service pak 1. When I downloaded and installed service pak 2 it refuses to open windows. To add to my woes, somehow all my restore points are wiped out. I booted in Safe mode but my internection connection wont work. So I manually removed all the secuity updates through control panel. Now I can get windows to run, and connect to the internet.

So you may ask why did I try to update? I have these pop ups that say the are "messenger service" and that I have serious registry errors and that I needed to go to a specic site and download their registry cleaner etc. etc. I realize I have serious security issues if these buggers are popping up and I have a pop up blocker installed. (Google) Unfortunately, I am using AVAST which I just read is the worst antivirus rated by PC Magazinne, HELP

In frustration I tried to reformat using the disc that came with the cumputer and it won't do diddly when I do.

Why won't my computer boot up? Service pak 2?noton

You could use netnanny , if you had something like NetNanny on your home PC that blocked certain adult sites, there's no way that the owner of an adult site that you have.

maybe somthing like NetNanny will help you.

also you can install a firewall between clients and servers, this will enable you to define your own "inappropriateness" in the system.

How can i safely turn off Norton Internet Security?

Sometimes i am playing Counter-Strike or something, and i can hear my computer making noise, and i lag a lot in my games.. it is really annoying. And since Norton is such a memory sucker, i think that's the problem, because before i had Norton, nothing like this happened. So is there a safe way to turn off Norton?

How can i safely turn off Norton Internet Security?pc security

I reccomend uninstalling Norton and Downloading AVG virus protection.

Please help me with computer science?

I am about to take a CS course offered by UIUC.

As decribed, this course "Examines the logical organization of databases: the entity-relationship model; the hierarchical, network, and relational data models and their languages. Functional dependencies and normal forms. Design, implementation, and optimization of query languages; security and integrity; concurrency control, and distributed database systems."

I know hardware and offen use software (like Vista, office XP quicken and Photoimpact, etc). But , i have never programmed. A man who specializes in CS told me to study "C" and the prereq of that course first, and then take only that course in the next semester beginning in the January next year.

I bought a C# book and i did not know that was C sharp and the advance level of C. I have no diffculty reading it. Can I skip C and start out with C# as having no CS background.

I will appreciate your help

Please help me with computer science?pop up blocker

you can start with any programming language you want. but since you are just beginning. it is best to start with C. (or if you want start with visual basic). C is the language used in many softwares including windows so it is best to learn that since that will be your "foundation" in programming. once you have mastered C, move on to Java then C++ (you can also skip to C# if you want).

I just scanned my computer for spyware. What next?

I have time warner and it comes with anti-spyware. When I did the scan it read "spyware detected-59", and

"items detected-128"

I am given the names(antispywaresuite, bestsellerAntivirus,etc)

The threat level (unknown, low,low to medium, low to high)

The category(rogue security,adware,toolbar,tracking cookie)

and the last category is headed with Information(unknown,and delete or ignore)

At the bottom I am given the option to 'exclude selected spyware' and 'quarentine all spyware'.

I just scanned my computer for spyware. What next?product key

You'll probably want to "quarantine all spyware" just to be safe.

And if it turns out that it wasnt really "spyware" then there should be a restore from quarantine built into the program which should undo the changes that it made to the suspected spyware.

Hope that helps :)

I just scanned my computer for spyware. What next?triumph

I'm not sure what Time Warner uses, but if it's respectable, it's probably safe to Quarantine all spyware. Exclude will keep it from detecting it. You might want to get a second Antispyware program, such as Ad-Aware, Spybot, AVG Antispyware, or Windows Defender. The first two especially won't conflict with what you already have, and it is VERY handy to have a second opinion. I fixed computers for years, and it was very common to scan a computer with the best program available, and clean everything found, and then run another program, and find a lot more. Nothing catches everything.
sounds like too much indefferance. run this scan (free) http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ it will remove all of them. then use this free tool to make sure the toolbar spyware is gone. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/sm... good luck my friend.

Sounds like you have spyware. In my humble experience, the best bet is to back up everything you value. Make sure you have all the serial numbers and disks for your software and OS and start over. most people can get a computer backed up and redone in about a day - far less aggravation than the removal of spyware and/or virii.

Regardless of what you do - back up what you value.
You have been infected by a very bad nastie.

If you can't install Spy Bot, Try Ad-Aware 2007.

Does Mcafee slow your computer down?software

Well, all antivirus software does slow down the computer a bit, but its not worth the risk to uninstall the antivirus for the little performance jump.

Mcafee doesn't hog the system as much as nortan. So, i will say keep it.

Does Mcafee slow your computer down?vincent

Trust me, you'd rather have a good process slowing your computer. Much better than having a virus that slows your PC.

What is wrong with my computer? HHCTRL.OCX issues...?

My WinXP Media Center PC recently started giving me an error message on startup. The message says:

The system DLL user32.dll was relocated in memory. The application will not run properly. The relocation occurred because the DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\HHCTRL.OCX occupied an address range reserved for Windows system DLLs. The vendor supplying the DLL should be contacted for a new DLL.

It is NOT a virus! And don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

You must have updated your Windows with the emergency .ani patch in the past 2 days. Well that patch now needs a patch! Go to Windows Update and get the patch for the patch and that information box will be gone.

Ya, thats great except for being a dell. You could build one for cheaper, but if you dont want to that will do.

It will run fine, dont worry about the RAM, I upgraded from 667 to 800 and it was a waste of money.

Do not buy the norton though, norton is terrible and will slow down your computer significantly.

I spend alot of time fixing computers that have viruses that norton cannot detect but basic free scanners pick up no problem.

Use spybot search and destroy, A2 (A squared), and ad aware.

Use only mozilla firefox for internet, do not use internet explorer because it allows sitees to load malware onto your computer as a cookie. Firefox does not and will ask you if any sites want you to open a file.

What Anti-Virus/Malware Protection Do You Use On Your Computer?

I found both McAfee and Norton's Security Suite packages to be very obstructive and intrusive. I used to have McAfee AV on my old Gateway and Norton Internet Security(Symantic) on my Dell. They were such resouce hogs that I uninstalled them and went with the free version of AVG Anti-Virus, which is very non-intrusive, provides automatic updating, updates daily, and is a great product. I also have AVG Anti-Spyware, which is just as good.

Here is my complete list:

AVG Anti-Virus 7.5

AVG Anti-Spyware Pro

Spybot Search and Destroy

Windows Defender

Spyware Blaster

I also run monthly scans at Trend Micro's Housecall site:

What is wrong with my computer?

What is wrong with my computer?symantic

it means that bla trojan tries to attack you, but norton takes care of that thing every time it appears. if you're concerned of your computer security, you can also run anti spyware scan just to be sure everything's fine. i recommend spyware doctor for anti spyware: http://www.2-spyware.com/review-spyware-...

What is wrong with my computer?viruses

It appears to be fairly harmless, but nonetheless, you need to remove it. Here are instructions describing what it is and what you need to do to remove it:

http://www.symantec.com/security_respons...
no...

it means you have a trojan horse

which is a form of a virus

it will try to do something harmful to your computer.

if you got norton, it wont let connect to the person who made the virus so they could not see what your doing.

go to the norton virus web page to see how to get rid of it before it gets worse though.
Don't worry, it says it was blocked, just be glad that Norton can block it!
i prefare dont use norton use other anti trojan as Kasper Sky
Some times Anti-virus software can only remove viruses by working in the safe mode. That means they can temporarily prevent it from attacking your computer until you turn it off and start it up again. If the message occurred only once after boot up, then Norton did it's job and blocked a virus. If it occurred on the next boot up again, you may have a virus Norton couldn't get.

besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.

Why is my brand-new computer so slow? Can I speed up Windows Vista?

I just bought an Acer Aspire 3680-2682 laptop: 1.86Ghz, 512MB DDR2, etc. It is completely clean, no additional software installed... used only for Internet Explorer. And it is SLOW!!!. Not as in connection speed. But slow as in, the whole machine slows to a crawl... mouse clicks and keypresses become lagged, etc. It even feels slower than my old 1.0 GHz Sharp PCMM20, which uses a firmware-emulated Pentium processor (Transmeta).

Is the problem Windows Vista? Or is it the Norton Internet Security which came pre-installed? Is there anything I can do to speed it up? Should I wipe off the HDD and install XP?

Are the any good benchmarks out there so I can try to quantify how bad this really is?

Thanks in advance for any answers!

Why is my brand-new computer so slow? Can I speed up Windows Vista?trojan

remove norton and replace it with something else. i like avast. its free.

also remove any other additional software that came with the computer that you know you dont need.

if that still doesent help, try getting some more RAM. 512 is a lot for runing vista, but it still works. 1 - 2 GB is best.

Why is my brand-new computer so slow? Can I speed up Windows Vista?abtuvurys 2005

Vista is a huge failure for Microsoft, and Norton products are notoriously lame ever since Peter Norton sold the name to Symantec. Fall back to a Nortonless XP and I'm betting you'll be happier.
Sadly with Vista and 512MB of memory, this is normal, and on top of this you added Norton, making it even worst, you should change AV software, plus adding more memory, its pointless having a slow computer.
remove norton, that is very likely your problem.
install more ram and edit your startup programs, especially norton. Also, allow vista to update on the internet. Some of the updates have produced increases in speed over the release version.

How can I keep my computer safe connecting with USB flash?

Wireless Lan adaptor? Isn't my current security set up which I use when connecting with Lan cable enough? I have never had a virus, trojan or any spy ware with it. Do I need to configure it to specifically protect the USB Lan adaptor, because I only see options for that in my Firewall which has protected automatically.

How can I keep my computer safe connecting with USB flash?vincent

A USB Flash is a thumbdrive, not a wireless LAN adaptor.

I presume that you are asking would you need extra sercurity should you use a USB wireless LAN adaptor instead of your wired LAN?

If you have switch over from Wired LAN to wireless, you do not need any extra sercurity if you already have Firewall programs such as Zone Alarm, Antivirus such as AVG and such that are kept up to date, You do not need to install any extra software. However, it would seem that you are using the inbuilt firewall in XP which is just basic and you might want to change over to 3rd party firewall programs.

However, if you are going to configure the router for use with the wireless adaptor, be sure to activate either WEP or better, WPA if it is available.

I would like to buy a wireless outdoor camera security system. Any suggestions?

I don't want to spend a fortune, but I'm not cheap either. Does anyone know of some decent wireless systems with about 4 cameras that I can mount outside and view from either my TV, Computer, or a monitor that comes with the system? Any help is appreciated.

I would like to buy a wireless outdoor camera security system. Any suggestions?virus removal

First of all, if you are looking for a good usable image you probably want to stay away from the offshore gunk being schlepped off on the geeknet and big-box stores.

There are a number of ways you can go, as for viewing camera's on TV there are channel inserters available which will superimpose your video onto a channel on your CATV. Another method is wireless UHF transmitters, however the neighbours will also be able to see snippits of your video (Which may or may not be a good thing, depending on your openness)

Another method is to use a networkable DVR which you can access through your Local network (could also be accessable remotely if you have a static IP). If you don't already have one, you will have to get a multi-port router for this to work. Cheap only 30 to 150 bucks.

You could also get a stand-alone surveillance system with a video switcher / sequencer or quad display. This will only record if you attach a recorder, but if you are looking to view only this could be the solution for you. If you take a look back in my answer history there was a similar question where I went into more detail on the differences between Switchers, Mux's, Quad's and DVR's. I also wrote an article on camera's awhile back, it is fairly old, however most of it still applies. There is more information which may help on my website at http://www.keepsafesystems.ca.

Ok, i dont know what is wrong with my vista computer but it's driving me nuts.?virus scan

I'd check and make sure that the year on your computer is right. My little brother was messing around one day and he changed the year to 1987 and the internet wouldn't display anything at all. So check that, and if that doesn't work, I'm sorry!

Should i allow full access for wmp in mcafee security center?virus scanner

your internet access has nothing to do with your PCs ability to burn CDs or DVDs. its your burner or the firmware for it.

try nero first then if that doesnt work then get a new burner. its cheap anyway. 20-30 bucks.

or the hard way is to try to update the firmware for the burner..

if you can post the burners detail then we can look for it..

add:- make sure your drive is a burner too..

How do you hack your computer hard drive for more (or unlimited) memory?

My friend hacked his hard drive and now he has bypassed the security interface that puts a limit to the disk space for your hard drive and now he has UNLIMITED disk space! Only problem is he forgot the website that taught him how to do it... and i know he is not lying because I went to his house and his laptop hard drive said 3.89 TB (TerraByte, 10,000 GB) out of 99999999 TB.

Plz explain to me how! Thx!

How do you hack your computer hard drive for more (or unlimited) memory?viruses

lol, it can't be done

there is a limit, and you cant change it

your friend either has a corrupted hard drive (i had that once on a computer 15 years old and it said i had 7tb of space when it ha 200mb of space) or he's changed something so it says that amount, but it'd not really that big

i can guarantee it, it physically cannot be done and if it could you'd be able to buy it

data is stored on a disk by changing magnetic fields, there is a limit to how many tiny magnetic fields it can have and you can't change it, your disk comes at it's limit when you buy it

i can't believe you fell for that

one mor ehing, i don't know how to make it SAY you have unlimited space, i could find out but there's no point, it only says it, you dont' really have that much space

and btw a tb is not 10,000gb it's 1,000GB

2 annoying viruses on my computer! Help!!?vista

Hey There,

Sounds like one I got clicking on a popup security virus scan something-or-other... 17 hours to fix.

One was called smitfraud-C and the other was virtuamonde (Spelling?)

You can find removal tools for both at:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/sm...

That's the direct link to the smitfraud removal tool - just search for virtuamonde from there. I used the tools on this site and they fixed it. You can check on them to make sure they're legit if you want to be sure - probably norton lists spyware removal tools that are really spyware installers and these ones are clean.

and you should also check out www.download.com and get some adware-free spyware/malware destroyers like "ad aware" "spybot search and destroy" and "AVG antivirus" --- they are all free, I believe.

Should I pay my annual subscription to McAfee for Security Center?

Or download a free AntiVirus %26 Firewall?

I have a home use P4 computer running XP

Should I pay my annual subscription to McAfee for Security Center?firewall

Personally, I'm not too keen on McAfee, the only one of their products I use is siteadvisor ( http://www.siteadvisor.com )...

It has happened to me several times that I went to fix a friends computer and McAfee (which they had installed and paid for) didn't manage to get rid of the virus/trojan that had infected the pc. The next thing I usually try is downloading AVG, and believe it or not, 80% of the time it manages to get rid of it.

For firewall, well it depends. Zonealarm for example (one of the most well-known free firewalls) is well known for eating up system resources, and especially for slowing down the system startup.. But it is quite a good firewall.

Comodo personal is also very good (and free).

Personally, I just use the built in windows firewall. Many wannabe geeks tell me I'm an idiot for doing that, but they don't realise I have many other layers of security set up on my pc so that I don't have a huge need for outbound protection. (If you're confused by this: the main gripe many people have with the windows firewall is that it only monitors incoming traffic, not outbound. So if you have a piece of malware on your pc, it can connect to the internet..) My philosophy is to keep my pc clean in the first place and it has served me well over the last three years..

AVG Free...

Shoot yourself in the head with a high calibre pistol... You're more likely to survive "eating a bullet" with NO DAMAGE than not end-up with a virus ridden spambot while using AVG Free.

Now, to come back to YOUR question...Could you have a virus that your AVS can *not* detect?

YES. There are dozens of viruses released into "the wild" every day, and it generally takes any AVS publisher a few days to a month to add a specific new virus to it's definitions. This is why your subscription based AVS continually polls it's publisher's page on a daily or so basis.

for some reason this software of like spam or virus detector got down loaded now i can't get it off....virus heat....and window security center and one more but it's keep poping up when i open the internet.. can anyone tell me how to make them go away.!

I am pissed at my computer!!?hijack this

Do this....

First go to run/type msconfig/ then startup/ then uncheck anything that looks strange "if you are not sure what you are unchecking the google it just to be sure as some of them are necessary for xp to work.

Then after this you will need to do a restart, after restart a box will pop up make sure you check the little box in the right hand bottom corner as this will stop it keep on asking for a reboot.

This will hopefully stop it reloading all the time.

Then turn off system restore by going to start/right click on my computer/properties/system restore and turn off system restore.

Then do a restart as you are going to do a scan in safe mode, you can do this by rebooting and before the boot screen comes up keep pressing F8 repeaterly until you get a black screen with instructions on.

Choose safe mode and the computer will start to load in safe mode. When the process has happened which is about 30secs your desktop will look larger than normal, just open your antivirus program do a scan and see if that sorts it out.

Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Computer Engineering at SUNY Stony Brook?

I have been accepted to SUNY Stony Brook and i'm stuck deciding which major I should take. I love anything engineering oriented... so it really wouldnt matter which one of these three majors I go into. It really comes down to the amount of potential the major has in terms of job opportunities, salary for jobs in that major, job security, and how interesting the jobs in that major would be.

Any tips and suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks.

Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Computer Engineering at SUNY Stony Brook?hijackthis

Really depends on the area you plan on getting a job.

For example, in the Silicon Valley of CA, Chip Design Engineers (mostly EE's) get the best paying jobs ($100K+) but work a lot of hours (like 60hrs/week min).

Top ME jobs traditionally go to automotive design (like working for Ford, GM, etc).

Good Luck...

Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Computer Engineering at SUNY Stony Brook?malware

EE is usually seems a more difficult and challenging major than ME but in term of availability of jobs, I would take ME over EE or Comp.E. ME is very broad, offering jobs opportunity in many different fields. You can usually find ME work in most cities whereas EE and Comp.E, you would have to be in the bigger cities and it's very limited.
I would start at Stonybrook and then check out the different departments, classes, and career opportunities once you are in college. They are three VERY different majors, so once you have all the information you can make a more informed decision. Your first year is general education requirements anyway (English, history, social studies), in addition to your physics, calculus etc in preparation for engineering classes.

How can I restore my computer operating system without reinstalling windows xp from scratch?house call

Try this,

Windows XP Repair Installation

At some point you may need to repair the installation of Windows

XP. This is preferable to a clean install in many cases since it

attempts to only repair your copy of windows without having to

delete all the files on your computer first. In many cases a

repair installation is enough to fix the problem. A repair install

deletes the files normally installed by windows XP and then

reinstalls them off the disc. A repair install will not rebuild

your computer's registry, delete applications and user settings,

or fix problems caused being caused by a program.

1. First you have to boot the computer with the Windows XP cd in

the cd tray. You will see a black screen and it will ask you

to press any key to boot from the cd so press the spacebar

and your computer will boot from the CD.

2. After a moment you will be taken to the Windows XP Setup

screen. Though the second option says to repair do not press

R. Instead press enter to select the setup for Windows XP.

It sounds great, esp. for gaming.

How would you rate this computer?microsoft office

To be honest I'd give it 5陆 because although that's quite a fast system you have there, there are imho a couple of weak areas. The main one I think is the onboard audio, a soundcard such as a SoundBlaster would be a vast improvement over your onboard audio, esp. when gaming.

Secondly, although that's not a bad card, a newer 512mb videocard would also improve your video performance.

And thirdly(sorry to say) Windows Vista. Vista is a massive resource hog and having Googled the results of various benchmarks, in most cases Vista is a lot slower than XP.

And Vista is incompatible with many popular programs such as Nero 7 and hardware such as the popular Soundblaster Audigy soundcard isn't properly compatible with Vista - its EAX surround sound function won't work with Vista.
Top notch, scale from 1-10 I would give it a 8.
On a rating scale of 1-10 I give it a 5 for being a general use workstation.

Not really fast and powerful, but not really slow either.

Not a good gaming machine because of the graphics card %26 that it's running Vista.
Its pretty good, Is that 2 1/2 stars?

The only thing that is kind of behind (not including your processor) is the graphic card. It well play games okay, but more of the bigger games, this won't be good enough.

I wouldn't pay more then $600 for this computer. (give or take any monitor).
As my friend borat says ,

very nice, how much !?!

This is making me kind of nervous and I would like to contact my site administrator to get to the bottom of this. Are there any computer geeks who can help me get to the bottom of this rather disconcerting development???

How do I notify my site administrator of a security error concerning a domain name mismatch???internet security software

Honestly, I would run a virus/spyware scan (Spybot) and restart your computer. I would then try again. If you don't recieve the error, I wouldn't think its a problem. Most computer problems can be overlooked as long as they are not consistent.

And I know the problem sounds serious... but it probably isn't.

For future reference, you can take a screenshot of your computer screen using Print Screen button and then pasting it into a paint program.

If it happens a second time, then I would take action. There could be a severe security issue on your computer.

check it out

Norton is indeed crap

When i logon to my computer,it takes almost 4-5 minutes to get online.?nortan antivirus

remove unwanted start-up by going to msconfig on run. Uninstall nortorn and find a better reliable antivirus/spyware protector, def computer once in a while, clear tempory files and history. you can do alot more the boot windows up more quickly, try researching it on google.
Run disc cleanup, clear the browsing history and defrag the hard drive, this may help it along.
maybe you have so many autostart at your start up or you don't have enough memory for your computer. you better check on that..
Switch it on 5 minutes before you want to get online.

Instant access when you want it.
For starters Norton is a resource hog which slows down the system by around 22%.

Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free.

Depending on the Model of your particular drive and assuming you have the proper interface on the new computer ie... USB 1, USB 2, etc.. You most likely just need to download the proper driver in order for it to work. You should be able to obtain the driver on the www site I listed above, just identify your external drive by model and download the appropriate driver, once downloaded install the driver, it will likely require a re-boot.

NOTE: Most USB Devices 1.0 or 2.0 require that the device NOT be connected when you install the driver files. You install the drivers and once installation is completed and computer restarted connect the device and your computer should do a short initialization/installation of the device.

One more note: If your computer supports USB 2.0 the hardware drivers may and may not have it configured properly, a large number of PC's as pre-configured have the USB set up as USB 1, in order to have it recognised as USB 2 you may have to visit the Computer Manufacturers www site to obtain a patch to enable USB 2, the drivers for USB 2 are provided By Microsoft, but again they may not install without a patch from the Manufacturer making your USB 2 be set up as USB 1. In any case USB 2 devices tend to be backward compatible with USB 1 and will install and operate on it although at a lower data transfer speed.

How can i get the KEY of (Kaspersky Internet Security Beta) version 8.0.45 and from where i can get this Key ?mcaffee

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.

i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.

How can i get the KEY of (Kaspersky Internet Security Beta) version 8.0.45 and from where i can get this Key ?norton antivirus 2007

I am a beta tester of all new software that comes out. Usually you have to fill out a form, and wait until the software company send you a password to enter the beta area, for the ability to download the beta program for testing.

I would suggest that you open the URL of Kaspersky Russia and see if there is a contact for beta testing. If not, see if there is a contact for the software company and send an email to Eugene Karpersky asking to be a beta tester.

Sorry don't know what else to tell you.

Can you have 2 different kinds of firewalls installed on computer?

I have lavasoft firewall. however, i realize that my subscription to mcafee security center is still valid. Mcafee security center has built in firewall. If i knew that, i wouldn't have purchased the lavasoft firewall.

Is it possible that i can have both mcafee and lavasoft firewall working together?

Or would i have to disable one of the firewalls, if both are installed?

Can you have 2 different kinds of firewalls installed on computer?microsoft office

It's not advisable to have 2 firewalls running on the same system because of conflicts (especially with rules based firewall protection). Also, it would be a load on system resources. There isn't any real need to run 2 anyway if the one you have is set up correctly and monitors both incoming and outgoing connections.

Can you have 2 different kinds of firewalls installed on computer?norton antivirus

I am pretty sure you can have both at once. I have the Microsoft one and two other security programs both with firewalls and nothing bad has happened.
no, just use 1
yes u can, but what your describing isnt 2 kinds of firewalls. they are 2 software firewalls, which u can have, they just have to figure out who goes first. its not smart trying it cause it could make it so you can't access the internet, due to the two of them blocking each other from the internet and therefore not allowing each other to scan incomming internet, therefore you dont get your internet.
Use only one software firewall. However, a hardware and a software firewall is OK, in fact is a prefered configuration.

Is this Sony Vaio a good computer for me??network security

Yes, that should be good for you. If you plan on playing more graphics intensive games, the Intel Media Accelerator won't cut it. Sims will be fine though. Of course, you are probably paying more for the sony name when you can get a dell or something for a lot less...

Is this Sony Vaio a good computer for me??norton internet security

It will work for you but if that is all you are doing on it then you might be able to get a cheaper one that works just as well. Most Sony computers are fairly top of the line and I would say look at how much you really need compared with how much you are getting. I don't know the price but I think you may be over doing it and wasting money.

How to remove VirusHeat from my computer?nortonantivirus

VirusHeat is a rogue antispyware program. It is installed by a very active trojan called smitfraud, also known as zlob trojan. You should be able to uninstall it directly from your Add / Remove section in your control panel, but chances are the trojan on your computer will reinstall it soon thereafter. You will definitely need to update your antivirus program and run a full scan in order to eliminate the trojan. If all else fails, try this:

www.spynomore.com

(see number 3 on the list of top spyware)
VirusHeat - another rogue PC security software have just appeared. The symptoms remain the same as its predecessors: AntiVirGear, VirusProtect and many more.

The program is dropped by a Trojan.Zlob while browsing suspicious websites or downloading fake video codecs.

For removal help please see: http://www.pcindanger.com/virusheat-remo...

Good luck :)
VirusHeat is the latest rogue anti-spyware program installed via Zlob Trojans. For a full description and removal guide that does not require you to pay for any software please go to this link:

Sounds like he has lost all enthusiasm in the relationship and doesn't care anymore. maybe you should give him an choice of either helping out with life's issues or you are going to leave, and put the ball on his side of the court for the next move.
Well, he either thinks he deserves the life style he has created for himself and or he is selfish and doesn't want to take responsibility, but either way he is not treating you as someone who means a lot to him.

What is this missage on my computer?

the server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified

a riquired certificate is not within its validity period when virifying against the current system clock or the time timestamp inthe signed file

do you want to continue using this server 責

What is this missage on my computer?norten

It means that the server you were using does not have it's "business" squared away with the makers of your Operating System and does not have a verifiable certificate in play to prove that

This means that there may be some functions of the server that you are using that will cause problems with full service from your operating system OR may not allow certain functions of your system to operate at all

If you really want that kind of security go with Karpersky or Trend Micro. I use Trend Micro as one of my five antispyware programs.

Avira Antivir Premium is good, or go with Antivir Internet security to add a firewall with it. I just use the premium version with comodo firewall and have no troubles.

Any suggestions? I have a E Machine T6520 with Windows xp and Macafee Security systems. I have added the webpage (log in page) to my "accept cookies" in internet connections and to the firewall.

This happened once before with another webpage and once I added it like this one, it worked.

What could be blocking it?

Although a self professed (and taught) computer geek, I am baffeled, can you help?norton internet security

I have experienced a similiar problem myself. I'm in the IT field my self, IT Support. I encountered the problem while trying to use internet banking, i'd like to point out that this problem i experienced happened with firefox not IE. Like many problems the issue sorted itself out. Also what firewall are you using becuase it sounds to me like the cookies are being blocked even though you set it so cookies are accepted on the site.

Trace it all back to your firewall. I hope your not using windows firewall eek!. Also another possibility do you have a spyware removal program such as adaware, or spybot search and destroy etc. Alot of them block cookies and remove them as they see them as potential spy cookies even though they may not be.

Will Windows XP Service Pack 2 interfere with Verizon Internet Security Suite?

Will Windows XP Service Pack 2 interfere with Verizon Internet Security Suite?nortonantivirus

No it will not. I have customers with VISS running on SP2. I still prefer EI6, though.

Will Windows XP Service Pack 2 interfere with Verizon Internet Security Suite?spyware

Nope. You can configure the Windows Firewall to OFF if you want. You can also UNINSTALL Internet Explorer 7 and go back to using IE6.

Windows XP with SP2 works great now. It is really awesome when you have 512MB of RAM.

Good luck and Happy Computing!
no it shouldn't affect it at all.
My gawd girl, please upgrade to SP2! It will do more to protect your computer then any anti-virus or security package that you could buy.

Windows has more holes (security) than a pound of Swiss cheese, and a lot of these were patched when SP2 was issued several years ago. And there has been numerous security updates from Redmond since then! My machine has over a hundred now.

Run, don't sashay, on over to Windows Updates (Tools %26gt; Windows Updates) and get 'em.
