I went to run my scan for the week and it ran fine. Then, I went to run any updates and I hit Update and it searches, then downloads, then installes and just about when it's finished installing, the screen kind of blinks real quick and I lose my connection. My computer is potentially unsafe now and I am afraid to go on to the internet for anything. I've never had it do this before. HELP ?? View this thread

Possible computer crash

I received a call from Microsoft Dallas, stating my computer was about to crash and they wanted access to my computer to resolve the issue. They sounded foreign (spoke broken english) and connection was like a cell phone about to drop the call. I basically told them due to identify theft and rampant fraud I wouldn't give them access. The first individual put on his supervisor who was just as foreign sounding as the first man. What should I do? View this thread

I am using Windows XP and Advanced System Care Free - a program to maintain the computer. For several weeks I have not been able to paste after copying or cutting anything on any document or anyting typed on email, etc. The "PASTE" is always greyed out. Also "CNRL V" does not work. I have tried the solutions I have found online, i.e. making Clipbook is started and dependent services Network DDE and Network DDE DSDM are started, which they are with no luck. I have tried to go back to a restore point before the problem started on Windows XP and Advanced Systme Care but neither one is working - they just say "not available or something like that. I have been told …

why are users prompted for virus removal when the admin has set default actions to remove for all alerts - regular users are not able to judge if the prompt is genuine or a spoof or what removal may or may not mean - what is the point of default actions if they are not actually carried out automatically by default - this has occurred recently with the latest MSE client 4.0.1526.0 and updates as of 28 May 2012 on Win7 Home Premium with Rogue:Win32/FakePAV and Rogue:JS/FakePAV View this thread

Windows activation tech popup, unknown publisher for all .exe, several seemingly un-repairable, corr
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

It seemed to have started with the "Windows activation technologies" popups about a month ago. Several times a day it will tell me that my version of Windows is not genuine. I did upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit a year ago but haven't had any trouble since then. I went through the online steps to resolve it through the popup. It would download something but right at the end of the download it would say that it couldn't complete and that would be the end of it... But the popups continue. I also noticed that I am asked to confirm that I want to run certain programs, allow programs to make changes, because they are apparently from unknown publishers. This includes …

Windows Video Maker question

Hello, I am using Win XP Pro and the Movie Maker that came with it. I have installed a Firewire card in my PC tower and, using an iLink cable, I have managed to create and edit a video in WMV format. However, I cannot watch this on my DVD Player because it only 'sees' MP3 files, so I need to convert my WMV movie to an MP3 movie (not only audio). Is there any free software out there that will convert the whole movie (1.4Gb in size). Many thanks Bluenose View this thread
