Can not delete tmp file from desktop
by Guest Bonsai Bill- 2 replies
- 88 views
I am running Vista Home Premium (and often long for XP). I have UAC turned off. Excel XP put a temp file on the desktop but I can not delete it. I went to Advanced Security settings to change ownership. The current owner is "Unable to display current owner." and I can not edit to give me ownership. Can someone please offer a way for me to delete this file? I don't want my desktop to become cluttered with a bunch of useless file icons. Thanks for any help!

bad luck with installing anti-rookit programs?
by Guest Massimo- 2 replies
- 84 views
Hello, This night I tried to install two anti-rootkit programs: Gmer and Rootkit Revealer. The programs downloaded from their respective sites (not via suspect sites). Gmer could be installed after Windows Defender asked me if I really wanted tot install it. It then installed and probably did a quick spontaneous scan (?) but when I tried to have it scan again, the interface did not respond well: it was inpossible to click on the C-drive to have it scanned. What a bad interface! Rootkit Revealer: again Defender asked me if... and I responded affirmatively but Defender did not accept. It said: "Unable to install RootkitRevealer service: (the rest translated…

Create Custom Event Source by turning UAC ON in Windows VISTA
by Guest mehtavipulk- 0 replies
- 90 views
Hi, We have a WPF Windows Application and this application would be used by all our client having VISTA OS. For any error occured, system will create an entry in Application event log using the custom event source - "Application Manager". When the User Access Control (UAC) is turned ON, VISTA does not allow to register custom event source in the registry. But this works well when the UAC is turned OFF. Is there any way where in we can create a custom event source (on the fly/programatically) with UAC turned ON? Note: Our application gets installed using "Click Once". Regards, Vipul Mehta -- mehtavipulk

MSRT Fails to Remove Renos Infection!
by Guest HTFiddler- 3 replies
- 121 views
I got infected with "Spyware Protect 2009", a Renos family trojan. Downloaded MSRT, and ran it twice in full scan mode .... 2.5 hrs each. Once in Safe Mode and once in Normal. Both times, MSRT reported 0 infections! And on this page: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/ Renos is listed 5 times as a top threat. And every MSRT threat list includes Renos. So I ended up calling 866-PCSAFETY, and they tweaked a few settings and had me run the third party Malwarebytes, which scanned in 1/5th the time (30 min), found 34 infections, cleaned them all and put my Win XP Pro back into top form! Anyone have any idea what is going on here? Like, what's the …
