My friends are using my laptop whenever they visit me at home. I was shocked when I saw some of my original pictures stored on PC are showing on a search engine.

I asked my friends if they touched my files, but they said they didn't. I trust them very much so I started thinking maybe someone is trying to break into my computer anonymously, and that's why someone was able to get those pictures.

Is there a way to check if someone is trying to access my computer unauthorizedly?

Please let me know your inputs about this?

Any suggestions are very much appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance.

Every time the Antivirus were out of date the failed error message appeared.

If the updates were unable to complete what I do is to restore factory settings so that the Antivirus would be updated. I don't want to do that every time the Antivirus runs out of date to do the factory settings as it's just a waste of time.

Do you guys know other techniques on how to update the Antivirus without the failure notice? I want the Antivirus to be updated immediately without any error occurring.

Please, do you have an advice regarding this problem?

Until now my Antivirus is not fixed.

Thank you.

I have done a restore factory settings on my computer this evening. The actions are doing completely good after restoring the settings. When I reached the desktop screen popped-up an error

Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall settings.

When I checked the Firewall Settings from the control panel the system was not being able to open the settings. I restarted the computer but still the error comes out. Even the message icons from the system tray were invisible. I think there's a problem occurring with the restore of the computer. Windows Vista is the OS of the computer.

My home computer running on Vista was attacked by a Win 7 anti-virus2011. I was done scanning my system when I realized that my system is already messed up. It showed a lot of programs infected and I feel helpless. Sadly, when I tried to connect to the internet to check possible solutions, I cannot. Is it possible that it hit my LAN as well? I want to be sure that my file can stay secured as I do not have a back up. As much as possible I do not want to reformat, so if there is anything I can do to remove this virus, please advise.

Hi,

I recently installed hmailserver (works great) and I installed the new version of NOD32 ( 3.0.621). I tried to setup nod32 as external scanner, but with no success.

My cousin downloaded a file from the internet and ever since that happened, I started to get a lot of pop-ups on my PC. Also, I noticed that sometimes my mouse pointer is moving without me touching it. Is my computer being infiltrated or something? I have an Antivirus installed and it’s updated. It came free for one year when I purchased my computer. I don’t think it is working properly because I still get those annoying ads.Can you suggest the best free Antivirus software that can be downloaded from the internet? I only know AVG and Malwarebytes.

It has been three days since I last used my personal computer at home because I am now really irritated. I am using Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Operating System. I am suspecting that a virus has attacked my computer. Since I do not regularly update my Antivirus software, I just realized that I should, because of this problem that made my computer busted.

I need to access my command prompt, but I could not, because whenever I am typing cmd, my computer shuts down. I always use shortcuts. When I go to my accessories manually, I can still go to command prompt, however if this is caused by virus, once and for all, this should be stopped!

Somebody help me please.

Hi,

I have Windows Vista and am trying to upgrade to Windows 7 but Vista will not allow me to do it and gives me a message saying I have to uninstall Omnipass from my computer.

Now I don’t know what or where the software is. I tried the Control Panel and could not find it and I also tried the program files folder and the device manager but both were of no help.

Can you tell me where this software is so I can uninstall it and upgrade my computer?

Between, I also ran a full virus scan on my computer and it came up clean.

I am getting error messages from like two days ago. When I try to open folders inside my C: drive the windows gives me this:

Window #1:

Windows Explorer has stopped working.

Windows is searching for a solution.

Then it stays there for a while thus forcing me to click cancel, upon clicking cancel a window pops up saying.

Window #2:

Windows Explorer is restarting.

I checked my PC for viruses and malware etc with 2 freeware programs and my Norton antivirus but that didn’t help at all. Please help in any way possible as I can’t afford to pay to fix this.

One morning I powered on my computer, upon the appearing of the desktop screen, in the task bar where they show programs that are running there was a program running and its name is AmIcoSinglun. I try to right click on it, the menu won’t show up, also it doesn’t respond to left clicking.
