General Computer Support / Re: Got a problem I cannot get rid of

« on: January 27, 2015, 05:03:14 am »

 I would say my problem is solved no more  pop up,s.

 ADWcleaner got stuff but it was Hitman Pro that found and removed the one adaware. Either one could have did it.
 If it shows up again in the future I will advise.
 I have yet to retry HRT program. Will do today.

 I browse all over the internet mostly military related stuff.    Example this is a lot of info.   http://www.ausairpower.net/.

 We,ll thanks again. It,s good to know you folks are there to listen.
 All the Best,
 Techone

 Boggin,
    Did everything you told me to and for awhile here, everythings been ok. I did find a program on Beeping.computer that found adware in     ( HitmanPro was program)
 my mail program Incredimail 2.5 .  Do not know if this has anything to do with it. Also ADW.Cleaner did find some garbage which I cleaned up with it.
  I used JRT program but I got the black box and it said cking for updates and underneath a flashing curser. This is as far as I got with it. I waited for awhile but all was quiet.

 Where would this  sape.Heur.51dp    be comeing from ?     I,ve never experienced this problem before.

 Will keep u folks informed if anything else happens.
   Tks., Techone                 Where I live right now it,s 1 deg,s out.

General Computer Support / Got a problem I cannot get rid of

« on: January 26, 2015, 08:05:34 am »

 Hello, been awhile since I have been on.
Running Windows 8.1  , HP computer with 1 tet drive and 8 gig ram.
Security on board is Norton Internet Security for 2015
Malwarbytes shareware program.
 This problem when it pops up which is quite often Norton blocks it everytime but I want to get rid of it.  I have scanned with  norton internet security and Malwarbytes,Spyhunter and tried Norton,s Power Erasure.Also ran superantispyware ,  No luck.
  The main one is  sape.Heur.51dp.
Others I have seen but have not seen in awhile are.    sape.sbWatchman.1,  videodownloadersdk.exe and Windisk-Windows-malavida.exe.
  It is strange that my Norton program does not see any of these when I run a full scan. But if any of them pops up, Norton blocks them ?
 One thing about computers, you never get out of the learning curve.    We,ll there you go folks, any idea,s ???  Thanks you if you can help.  Later, Techone

General Computer Support / Re: Something is shutting down some of my security programs randomely

 SOLVED  //////////// SOLVED  //////////// SOLVED
                                                                 I ended up having to do a full recovery.

 Chkdsk was run and it would not go past 10%   .   I repeated this step many times but it continued this way.   I tried to cancel test to clear it but to no avail.
   Reboot and hit escape key to get to Start Menu. Selected and ran several different recovery dates but they would not recover.

 This messing around went on for 1.5 days then I decided to run out of box recovery mode and today at this E.S.T. 4:30 P.M. everything is good. In fact everything is faster, better ect...
 In fact, I feel this should be done once every year to totally clean out the junk. while I was at it, I ran in diagnostics several tests especially a extensive DST test 3 hr. on hard drive and all tests passed.
  Anyways, thanks you folks for your input.  Much appreciated.
Techone   Happy Holidays to all.

 Today as another rootkit check, I ran Norton Eraser which is a free program.
 Note that no problems were found.

 Per advice message I was requested to run chkdsk c: /r for a possible bad disk sector.
 What I did run was chkdsk / f c:  Which would repair any bad disk sectors within reason when found during scan.

 I now need to wait to see if this does resolve my problem as no after scan notes showed a repair. If problem
does still exist I will run chkdsk again.
  Thank you

General Computer Support / Something is shutting down some of my security programs randomely

 Hi folks,
  Been in pc,s for quite sometime but have never had this problem before.   Running Windows 8.1, 1 tet drive, 8 gig ram., HP pc..
  My security programs are Norton Security newest version and also run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. I also have Maxa-Cookie Manager Pro..

  If I run the Malwarebytes program in scan mode, before it finishes the scan run, it shuts down? Never did this before.  Norton Security full scan runs to finish but finds no problems..
 Maxa-Cookie program shuts down also after I surf the internet for awhile.  In the no scan mode, the Malwarebytes program runs just fine.  Malwarebytes program is compatible with norton Security.
 Note that before any of the programs shut down, you always get the notice, have to shut down, and check on line to see what may cause this problem  ect...

 I feel that there is a malware root-kit somewhere thats doing this ??? Also note that I have had these programs for quite sometime and never had this problem with them ever.

General Computer Support / Problem of configuring window 8 updates

« on: June 11, 2014, 08:46:57 am »

 Running Windows 8.   To start with, I just became a member today and was glad to find this forum.
This problem happened after I had to go back to factory settings on my pc to resolve a problem.  I am now up and running ok and pc is back to normal.

 This is what troubled me . Naturally Window,s Updates had to be recovered to catch back up for needed patches. There was 108 updates to be downloaded. Every one downloaded fine and they all
installed ok.  Now pc had to do configuration on these updates. During configuration, maybe half way through the rotateing activity icon would go from center to left side of monitor screen and pc would blink off and then blink back on. I then would get a restart and pc would pick configuration of updates from where it left off.  Because of pc blink off, updates did not configure properly then this would trigger a repair reply.  This happened 3 times but after the first time I used recovery menu remove file only. I eventually got through this by installing updates 25 to 30 at a time.
  Note: I found no maleware or viruses  in program runs to look for.   I ran Norton Internet Security 2014 full scan, Norton Eraser, Malwarebytes,ect.. and nothing turned up except a few cookies.
 Have a HP Pavillion / 1 tet drive/ and 8 gigs ram. windows 8 program.

My question is, what would cause this update configuration problem?  I wish to say hello to everybody  and I will also help with tech answers if I see a familiar problem. Job is Eng. Technician .
