I have already downloaded Norton Antivirus, but now whenever I try and open Norton, it just fades away and never opens. I have Windows 7, and I had a downloadable version, not by the cd. So anyone that knows how to fix this, please help.

So I am getting a new MacBook pro for college and my school requires that I run an antivirus program. They supply a program called McAfee virusscan for Mac 9.0 or you can get your own program. I was curious if this is a good program or not as I currently use McAfee for windows (which I find to be decent). If this program isn’t that good does anyone have a recommendation for a better program. Thanks!

I have a Free Personal Edition Avira as my antivirus software and another software for spyware, so I’m sure that I’m not just safe from viruses but also from other threats. Is their any problems that I might encounter in having paraller antivirus software? I just found there’s a winsock32.dll running, which as I researched is a virus so I deleted it. I was wondering if having 2 antivirus software caused this virus to be undetected. Thanks to anyone who answers!

The registry cleaner tool will scan the Windows registry for various invalid entries. Each entry is shown after the scan with the possibility to clean it up. By default a backup of the Registry will be created before any cleaning takes place. It is furthermore possible to schedule regular Registry cleanups or restore a previously created Registry backup.

The disk cleaner is a basic tool that will scan the hard drives of the computer for temporary or duplicate entries giving the user the options to delete those files from the disk. It is nowhere as extensive as tools like CCleaner offer but it covers the most widely used temporary locations.

I have recently become aware of a software called combofix which seems to do a fairly good job of removing rootkits. I don’t think it is a very feasible program to run remotely, although I have had good success with using while onsite at my client’s offices.

Bagle and the Vundos are some of the most common viruses I run across. Thanks for the helpful tips on dealing with them. The level of sophistication of some of these viruses is astonishing compared to just a few years ago. Here’s to eradicating (or at least limiting) them!

Thanks for this. The Bagle rootkit is a pretty big problem which even the most advanced of systems might struggle to protect themselves against.

Thanks for this posting. It describes exactly my struggle to get rid of BAGLE. Extra inconveniances on my PC were: Virusscanner McAfee is still not installable (framework errors), System Recovery was disabled, Booting in Safe Mode gave BSOD and 0x..7b, System-/Hidden files unable to see. Greatis freeware rootkit killer and Google helped me solving everything.
Reinstalling XP doesnt give me satisfaction.

Thank You

Thanks for the well written and useful post. The best article about the issue, by far. How come it’s so far back in “bagle” search in Google? The world is full of idiots… BTW, SUPERantiSpyware seems the best tool fot dealing with this, just uncheck the direct kernel file acess, or it will bagle-crash.

I had managed to un-Bagle myself, but was still suffering from lack of wireless on my laptop. Thank you for the concise and accurate instructions for altering the registry key to allow WZC to restart. Very helpful page; my thanks to you.
