Solve : VistaAntispyware 2012 ???? |
Answer» Here is the cntrlV post; I hope I did this correctly; the black SCREEN opened up as you said but even if I had the 7z file within the USB not sure if it ever acted upon the unzip file; sorry if I screwed up. Also noticed when I went into device manager that there is a yellow caution sign besides Microsoft ASATAP adapter.Here's some information about that. Quote Should I still go ahead with the Vista MpsSvc.reg file "Merge?Yes, please.Did the merge and no change. Here is latest Farbar. Dave, perhaps let me know how to restart at initial settings (anything important has been on USB and is safe at work) unless you feel that some of my attempts were not perfectly done (could be).

Quote unless you feel that some of my attempts were not perfectly done (could be).No. I don't have a problem with how you performed the work at your end. It's just that C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\tdx.sys is missing. ComboFix said it replaced that file but for some reason it's still showing as MIA. If all your important data has been SAVED, perhaps a Recovery would be the best thing to do at this point. You can find the instructions in Reply # 42. Instead of Repair you should choose Windows Complete PC Restore Murphys Law has dictated that A valid backup location could not be found. Attach the backup hard disk or insert the final DVD from a backup set and retry. AAgghhThe only thing I can think of now is to find a Vista Home Basic disk to do the Restore.Hi SuperDave I want to thank you for all your help. Will try to find a disk somewhere; difficult to keep up as the desktop hard drive just crashed as well Thanks again MtlHab Quote from: MtlHab39 on March 01, 2012, 08:29:23 AM Hi SuperDaveYou're welcome and good luck getting into the playoffs.

Superdave.Hi SuperDave Which link in these forums is best for establishing security for 'new' HP lptop for teenager's usage, in terms of spyware, malware, etc? The desktop has been Spybot and Avast protected so far. BTW, Markov is back, the city is abuzz with the what-if?? Thanks again Mtl In reviewing your thread I just realized that there appears to be no Anti-Virus on your computer. If this is, in fact, to be TRUE please download and install one of these free AV's, then run a full scan. We also should do some cleanup Remember to only install one antivirus! 1) Avast! Home Edition 2) AVG Free Edition 3) Avira AntiVir Personal 4) Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows Vista\Windows 7 - 64 bit Download 4-a) Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows XP 5) Comodo Antivirus (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" if you choose this one) 6) PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition 7) ThreatFire It is strongly recommended that you run only one antivirus program at a time. Having more than one antivirus program active in memory uses additional resources and can result in program conflicts and false virus alerts. If you choose to install more than one antivirus program on your computer, then only one of them should be active in memory at a time. *********************************************** Clean out your temporary internet files and temp files.
