    WinAntivirus popup

    Since this is a pop up and not currently installed on your computer (based on your original thread) I think its a BHO. Remove all temporary internet files, and cookies. Also try resetting your homepage. One last question, why are your .exe's coming from Windows.0\System32? You can remove these...

    Unknown virus/spy causes machine not to boot even in safe mode

    Any idea what the driver was for future reference? Also, how would a faulty driver install itself onto a clean computer? It sounds like there was more to this one than just that. If it transferred itself to your clean computer, then it has some type of worm associated with it, not just a trojan...

    Bad Video Driver- Quick response appreciated

    Not real sure what you are referring to AMD, i dont think it is am issue with the video card. Are you saying replace the video card with another? 2 reasons I cant do that. 1) User in MD I am in VA 2) In an office environment, and not able to be opened. If you think you can, you might...if you...

    Bad Video Driver- Quick response appreciated

    I agree with you both on that one, it has the 15 second count down when you select that. The question is now, if they did not select yes, and it did not accept the new changes, is there any way to revert it back to the previous settings. The bad thing about this is, i am able to get the...

    Bad Video Driver- Quick response appreciated

    refresh rate hasn't changed, safe mode automatically selected 640X480 in safe mode, on reboot it still goes back to the black screen. WOuld this be something to do with Active Desktop, or an over written file? If you think you can, you might...if you know you can then you will. A+

    Bad Video Driver- Quick response appreciated

    I have a client that tried to install a new background/wallpaper on their desktop, when they tried to save the picture to the desktop, the resolution was horrible. So they tried to customize the desktop, and chage the size of the picture. After doing so they got the prompt that said the screen...

    Can people hack WEBKEYS

    I am setting up a wireless network in my house with only a webkey as the security. I know that it should be enough for a simple network scan to see if I have any kind of encryption setup, but what about the more advanced hackers? What kinds of tools are out there to crack webkeys? Is there some...

    Mc Afee Reg

    I see no problem in uninstallation, because when you re-register if you type in the valid information it should take the new registration, if there is a problem in this you might have to hunt in the registry all occurences of McAfee and delete those keys. You may want to search on McAfee's...

    When is a system infected?

    I would not advise saving it onto the system, for this reason: ALL AV software out only catches what virii has been discovered, decompiled, and have a signature file created for them, AV software does not protect computers in every instance. If you allow users to download a file that is a virus...

    I agree, the practice tests are the way to go, but don't just memorize, know why the answer is right and you will have more success in the industry. If you think you can, you might...if you know you can then you will. A+
