Does anyone know how to get rid of these viruses?

My PC has been infected with FalconSpy, and Malwipe, and I can't seem to get rid of them with my PeoplePc Security Pack. Is there a free software program that I can download that can actually delete these viruses from my computer and not just scan the problem ? The best answers gets 10 pts.

Avast has a scanner and virus cleaner. You have to have the free home edition anti-virus software though. I really like this one. I had a win32.sasser on mine and it washed it right out and restored some files. My PC is running smoother now. It also has a kick a$$ database update. The only thing that it doesn't seem to be compatible with is the Adaware software. But that is because it is a data miner. AND on the plus side of things, both the anti-virus and the cleaner are totally free. Yeah, I have the Adaware SE on my computer too. But you can set it up to accept the program as safe file.
check some of the antivirus websites like mcafee.com, symantec.com, or avast.com. They sometimes will have downloadable removal tools that work for specific viruses, or manual removal instructions.
Install Smantec Norton Antivirus and Firwall, run live update and then run a full system scan, it will remove viruses and spywares from you computer completly.

Does Trend Micro OfficeScan Client adequately protect me from viruses, adware, and spyware?

I scan everything I download with Trend Micro, and keep it well updated. Am I safe to download stuff on the web, ie will the scans "pick up" the viruses and spyware in the executable files/dll files?

Hi there..



If I have said NO then don't shock. Because I myself realized that Trend Micro is not foolproof against latest viruses like Brontok and Sality. You are not safe coz I found a lot viruses and worms in Trend Micro installed computer. I'm not here for marketing purpose. You can read all posts at my website too. I have suggested AVG antivirus to you.

Does Trend Micro OfficeScan Client adequately protect me from viruses, adware, and spyware?norton 2008



Mostly, but remember that your AV is about two weeks behind. A Zero-day virus will pass your AV.
Simply put, "NO".



....you need a more thorough security program than that.
I am using Trend Micro Office Client as well.As far as Scanning is concerned it is very good.But the Updating sequence is Pathetic.I mean by saying that I am unable to get connected to the Trendmicro server even after hitting the 'update' buttons repeatedly.The Trend Micro Office Client is provided by our service provider for free.And since I cannot uninstall it, I have to keep it.At the moment I am three pattern files behind.



So to counter that, I am using 'Avast 4.7 home edition' to counter this situation.I've been using this antivirus for over two and half years with excellent results.At the moment there are no conflicts between both them.They seem to compliment each other very well.......

What is the difference between spyware, adware, malware and viruses?

Are they all the same and if so why different names, or do they all have specific goals.



Viruses are obviously the worst, but what is next and so forth?



What is the difference between spyware, adware, malware and viruses?microsoft



all the same idea, but do different things.



spyware spies on you. records the websites you visit. what you looked at on a site. could record passwords.



adware sends you advertisements. pop up ads, etc.



malware is when you think it is software to do something,but it is MALicious. it is designed to look like something else. free software with something hidden in it.



and a virus is called a virus because it acts like a human virus. spreads on contact and replicates.



they need different names because they act differently, and must be defended against differently.



i use a virus scan(AVG), adware scan (AD- Aware)spyscan (spybot) and a software firewall(zonealarm). none catches all of them.

Is it true that macs really don't get viruses or spyware?

You always here that macs do not get spyware or viruses. Is it true that macs are not subject to either of these things?



Is it true that macs really don't get viruses or spyware?network security



Very seldom do Mac's get viruses and/or spyware. The reason is that 90% of the world's computers use Windows, so practically 100% of the junk is written for windows.



Is it true that macs really don't get viruses or spyware?norton internet security



No, macs can get viruses or spyware but the reason why they dont is because not many people are using it. The only reason why Windows gets a lot of viruses and spyware is because many people use it
This is totally untrue, although they do get less due to there being more security holes in windows and windows is used more.
Not necessarily. Windows operating system PC's receive more viruses/spyware as the OS is more common. Mac and Linux boxes are not as common, therefore not too many people create viruses or spyware based on them.



If a company wants to get the most bang for the buck they will write spyware/virus for the Windows OS/Internet Explorer. It has a wider user base for home and business PC's than Apple. Exploits and hacks are listed more often as well for the Windows OS, meaning more code is flowing freely.

Can someone help me how to get rid of viruses ?

I would not recommend buying any programs and wasting your money when you can remove them yourself without spending your hard earned money.



Check this article, it has complete information to deal with pop-ups and spyware....



http://compset.net/article_adware_popup....



Pop-ups are created by Adware installed by different sites on your computer. To stop these pop-ups, you need to remove special keys from your computer which are installed by those sites.



Good Luck!



Can someone help me how to get rid of viruses ?norton



I waiting too, I have the same problem
you dont have any protection programs? or they are all expired? You might have to purchase a good one (like Norton, Kaspersky or Mcafee...) online, but if you dont wanna do that, you can format your computer again by yourself, just put everything you need in drive D, and delete drive C totally, but the thing is you have to have a CD with a key to format windows again. If you dont have a key, you can find one online for Windows XP, Windows Vista and try to crack, but for me, it's kinda complicated and sometimes the keys found are in blacklist, kinda unsafe. does your computer still have guarantee? if so call the customer service and ask a technician what to do step by step to format your computer or if you cant do it yourself, send it back to the factory, they will format it all over again for you. Your computer will be like new without viruses, but remember to back up your data like documents, pictures, music (put them on CDs) before you send your computer. Good luck!

New Desktop Wallpaper? Saying my computer is infected with viruses??

My desktop is blue saying my computer may be infected with viruses. A new icon has appeared named PSGuard.



I scanned with NOD32 and it says my laptop is clean?



Does anyone know what it is? And what will it do?



New Desktop Wallpaper? Saying my computer is infected with viruses??nortan antivirus



PSGuard is a malicious anti-spyware software that performs those actions usually done by trojan horses. It uses a root-kit to keep registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ShudderLTD (with its child keys and values) protected. PSGuard is able to do this by using a well known exploit [difference between Win32 and Native APIs]. Having this nasty corrupt anti-spyware program on your computer makes it insecure, you should deal with it as soon as possible.



This Trojan is also known as:



ps guard



Scan your PC with these to remove it.



Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free.

If I dont go on internet will i get viruses?

I have dial up internet and i want to use a Belkin USB Network adapter so i can wirelessly go on my labtop. will I get viruses on the computer i use to put the USB network adapter on?



If I dont go on internet will i get viruses?nortin



Well unless you install something from a disk with a virus you can not get a virus if you don't connect to the internet ever.



But you're saying you want to wirelessly access the internet using the Belkin USB Network Adapter. If you use that you will obviously be connecting to the internet, in which case you are potentially susceptible to a virus.



There are some steps you can take to protect your computer:



1. Don't use Internet Explorer 6. Download Firefox (www.getfirefox.com) or Internet Explorer 7 (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/product...



2. Don't download free software such as screensavers or similar programs. Never click inside the box of a pop-up.



3. Buy or download a security suite and scan your computer regularly and update the program regularly. Some good programs to buy are Norton or Kaspersky. For free programs you can try AVG or Ad-Adware.



If I dont go on internet will i get viruses?pc security



as long as you are connected to the internet there are chances to get a virus keeping up the fire wall and going to secure sites are you safest bets also using anti virus software
Anything you install on your computer from an outside source may potentially contain viruses. If you are not connected to the internet, that would greatly reduce the chances of getting a virus. Whenever you download something or install new software, it's important to immediately scan for viruses. I'd recommend to anyone to never have a computer unless you plan to have a virus cleaner. Unless, of course, you are never going to install anything on it and you are never connecting it to the internet--like a word processing computer.
Just wear a condom and you should be ok.

Whats the best music download program that dosnt cause viruses!!?

I need a music download program like limewire that dosnt slow down my computer or cause viruses.Anything recomended that i can download of the internet?



Whats the best music download program that dosnt cause viruses!!?norton 360



P2P SOFTWARE usually dont hold viruses, the things ppl download does. The lower version of limewire used to have spyware in it or something. Limewire PRO is my preferance. But I use a different sharing technology now. Anyway, if you dont want to contract viruses from P2P, use common sense. Most songs are around 3mbs. If you see a song like .2mbs, it might be a virus? Maybe? Look for file sizes, and right click-%26gt;properties and see the file type. Music is usually .wav, .mp3, .ogg, and google some more. So be careful and use common sense. Hope I helped.

I have given up using such programs...I have come to realize that no matter which one I download or how careful I am there are always going to be viruses. I can't tell you how many times I have had to completely reinstall windows because of viruses
Hey Dani....im using Kazaa Platinum at this time which is virus %26 spyware free and doesn't cause any viruses. Also they offer unlimited music download as well. Kazaa Platinum has 3 different memberships which you can choose from. I am happy with their service and it's very easy to use. They offer 7 days money back guarantee with customer support. You should give a try. (I have Window's Vista and it works fine on my Lovely Vista and no other software work like Kazaa Platinum does).



Happy :) customer of http://www.kazaa-platinum.com
There is no ideal P2P program. What is best for me may not be best for you or anybody else. The bottom line is: buy the greatest amount of ram you can afford, chose the best NIC and optimize you network configurations. And most importantly, install the best anti-virus program you can buy and update it regularly. P2P programs do not prevent viruses, your anti-virus program do.

Is Avg free a good antivirus? does it put viruses in my computer?

AVG is not so good as far as todays worlds threats considered . U should use NOrton 2007 or Mcafee latest version-both of them are very good and capable enough to provide u fullproof security



all the best
I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/... On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps.
I love AVG Free. I am PC tech and swear by it. I know most of my peers do as well. It def. does not give you viruses. As long as you downloaded it from the real AVG website, you should be all set. The creator is Grisoft in case you want to double check.
no it's not.. eset just want you to uninstall avg.....



so that you will not be using it... some anti virus programs do this..
If your ISP has installed an antivirus you should either drop AVG or the one installed by your ISP. Never have but one antivirus running in the background. They will definitely conflict and cause problems.

Most bacteriophages lasck introns, but introns have been found in the DNA viruses of eukaryotes.?

The RNA viruses of eukaryotes, however, lack introns.



What do these findings suggest about the origin of viruses?(consider what evolved first:prokaryotes or eukaryotes.)

Eucaryotes evolved after procaryotes. Their features and organization is much more complex %26 organized then the latter, %26 are more versatile. Also, error correction is better.



Most bactreria do not have introns. Some virus have introns but they are most probably recently derived from host DNA. A similar phenomenon to viral transduction. (since virus are compact and do not have spare room in their capsids, those



introns will disappear shortly, in geologic time. Host RNA have introns cut out when they are transcribed from nuclear DNA to messenger RNA. Therefor an RNA virus picks up RNA, (%26 not DNA, excepting retro viruses which are a small % of RNA virus species).

If you re-installed ur windows program, would the viruses and trojans be removed as well?

Let's say I want to re-install my windows program on my laptop. Do the viruses and trojans horses go away or do they have a way to come back?



If you re-installed ur windows program, would the viruses and trojans be removed as well?norton antivirus



If you format your hard drive, then reinstall your windows, you will have gotten rid of the viruses and all bad things.



If you re-installed ur windows program, would the viruses and trojans be removed as well?security



yes, ive done this several times because of viruses
If you format your hard drive and then reinstall windows, the viruses will be terminated. You will lose all of your data though so back up what you need.
sometimes the viruses will stay. they are called 'boot sector' viruses.



use fdisk /mbr or delete and recreat the partitions when you reinstall
No I would recommend the anti virus system that yahoo provides for free Ez-antivirus or norton or macaffe. Also use Ad-aware to remove spyware



Good Luck.
Depends on if you are just re-installing the program or if you formated before re-installing. if you formatted, they are gone.
You usually have to do more than reinstall. you actually have to format the hard drive. As this will delete all the files off your computer, you will want to be sure you backup anything you want in the way of pictures, music, documents you have written, etc. first. Copy them to a CD or DVD (something that can be removed from your computer) before formatting the hard drive. Do NOT try to backup any of the programs, just the data files.
Reinstalling won't remove them. You need to make sure you format and repartition your hard drive first before reinstalling. then they will be gone, Unless you have a virus that has infected your bios or cmos.
if u will format ur laptop and then reinstall windows then all the viruses will be gone.
Yes.. just wanna throw in my $.50 cents... the virius will be gone and when you reinstall... it will be like your pc is fresh out the box.. i do it a lot when my pc gets slow... just something2do when i have some free time. also.. it keeps your computer skills sharp for whenever someone else needs your help reformatting their hard drive. they can call on you! ;)... (GOOD QUESTION)
unless it a very serious one yes
If you only re-install windows without re-formating the hard drive, the virus's and trojan horses could still be on the hard drive. I would re-format and then install windows from scratch. You could also just get a free anti-virus software program like AVG from free.grisoft.com. Good Luck!
if you've formatted the windows drive (full) and the virus was on that drive yes otherwise NO. You can use the Antivirus program like norton or mcoffe to scan your drives

Whats a free music download site that has no viruses.?norton ghost



If you are going to download free (illegal) music then you need to learn to download smart. Viruses are only for those who don't know how to use their software. Software like limewire (limewire.com) can be a risk if you don't know what you are doing. Make sure files you download have the ".mp3", ".mp4", or ".acc" file extension and have a size of at least 2.5megs (2500kb)



Whats a free music download site that has no viruses.?software



limewire hasnt put any on mine so...limewire
if u don't want a virus u probably have to buy the music so its safe...nothing comes that easy. nothing is free when it comes to downloading music unless its illegal, as far as i know. hope u find a cheap site, try yahoomusic.com or iTunes/ know that u have to pay on them though. good luck
There's lots of genuine free music download sites but they're usually showcasing the work of unsigned artists or make music available for publicity purposes.

How do Christians manage to divert a question about viruses with "the fall"?

Blame Adam and Eve, fine. But who created these life forms and micro-organisms? Did they create themselves out of materialized "evil"?



You try to blame everything on "the fall" and say the earth was left 'susceptable' to "bad" things???? But this is nothing but a copout since you are avoiding the ultimate question of who created these life forms,



since they are life forms, and God is the only one to be credited as 'creator'.



Or would this be a circumstance where you would have to concede it's more evolution which has to do with the mutation of viruses and bacteria rather than God or the devil?



So if it's just "nature", than why does God step in for a church revival but he can't seem to change 1 tiny particle of DNA code on a strain to make it non-lethal?



With that, it would seem it comes down to 'God's willful punishment' or "God has no control at all with the workings of nature".



---which is actually quite the obvious choice if you look around.

How can i make safe my mobile nokia5200 by viruses. is there any free antivirs availble? plz tell me the sorcepanda



Your phone is already safe from viruses. Neither viruses, nor anti-virus software exists for it.



Currently, the vast majority of viruses and other malware for mobile phones is for Symbian S60 R2 phones (although some of it works on Symbian UIQ phones). Your phone is not a Symbian phone, so this is not a problem for you.



There are very few malicious programs for PalmOS and Windows Mobile - but your phone isn't running any of these operating systems, either.



Finally, there are a couple of Trojan horses for J2ME - but your phone doesn't seem to support Java midlets, either.



So, you don't need to worry about viruses infecting your phone.

I work for Tier 3 data support for T-Mobile. The only Tier 3 for T-Mobile in the whole country.



I can GUARANTEE you can't get viruses on your phone. It is almost impossible.



That's the whole reason why there are no anti-virus programs out there. The operating system on your phone does not use kernel. kernel is used by windows, and is what is affected by viruses when you get a virus on your computer. Since your phone does not have kernel, it therefor cannot get viruses. You could download all the trojans in the world and your phone would be unaffected

Why is my computer suddenly running so slowly when I have no viruses and no spyware and clean drives

Yesterday I was watching a DVD on my laptop with my girlfriend when suddenly the computer started to lag-- the sound and video on the DVD started to break up as if my computer though it was a bad movie. After the lag, I ran Ad-Aware, noticing that it took forever for the program to come up, only to find that no spyware was on my computer besides basic tracking cookies. I restarted my computer, thinking that maybe something so simple would fix it, but no, it took 5 minutes for the computer to restart.



I have defragmented my drives, used Disk Cleanup, checked for viruses with Norton Anti-Virus, removed any spyware that existed, and still my computer is extremely sluggish.



I am using Windows XP on a HP laptop with 1 Gig of ram. Not sure what else you need to know, but my computer was much, much faster before this sudden change.



Thanks in advance for any answers.



Why is my computer suddenly running so slowly when I have no viruses and no spyware and clean drives?pc security



The solutions to this problem can fall on many points. The easiest way to fix this slow down is to preform a system restore and restore to a previous point before the computer acted strangely. There is a high chance that some strange anomaly turn a 0 to a 1 in the registry and could potentially cause this problem, system restore would repair that.



If that is not an option, try to restart your computer in diagnostic mode. Go to start, run, and type msconfig. There, there should be several buttons reading normal, selective, and diagnostic. Diagnostic should be selected, when you close out, you should be prompted to restart. Restarting in this matter will start your computer without any other programs running except the needed files to run.

How do people profit or benefit from creating computer viruses ?

I was just wondering what drives people to ceate theses computer viruses,what do they get from it ?



How do people profit or benefit from creating computer viruses ?photoshop



The biggest reason right now is financial, what the criminals do is send out spam or IM's that will download a virus that will allow them to control your computer. They for the most part they are not interested in you, but what you and hundreds of thousands of "zombie PC's" can do. A common tactic is to bombard an off shore gambling site with so much traffic that they can no longer do business. Then they extort money from them to turn off the attack, which they usually get, because there really isn't any legal recourse for the gambling sites to follow, because gambling sites are not legal in the U.S. They also can bring down other sites like CNN, and Bluefrog. There are researchers that create proof of concept viruses to allow anti-virus companies to stay ahead of the criminals. There are many more reasons, but getting large farms of Zombie PC's is most common, they also rent these farms out to people who do what ever they want to do with them.

How do you know your computer in protected against viruses?

How do you know your computer is protected against viruses, worms, hackers, spaywares, adwares,highjackers, and ...?



How do you know your computer in protected against viruses?security



The security control panel will tell you if everything is working properly. There is nothing that will make it 100% safe. It is up to you not to do stupid things.



How do you know your computer in protected against viruses?trojan



By installing the "paid subscription" antivirus and antispyware software programs and also a firewall. This is the best protection available for today's computer operator for "real time" protection.



Free programs do not protect the pc with the only exception being the free Microsoft Windows Defender which is an antispyware program.



So, you will want to review some terms to understand what protection is and does and what are the best available.



1) Real time protection



2) Heurisitics



3) Antivirus software



4) Antispyware software



5) Firewall



Security Recommendations:



http://www.bluecollarpc.org/



"It is now strongly recommended to have a firewall, antivirus, and antispyware paid subscription security software installed, updated, and running continually for personal and computer security. It is also recommended to join at least one avenue of information and/or help such as groups or forums or RSS news feeds or simply checking any Internet News publication on security at least on a weekly basis."

If I only use yahoo, then my worries about viruses is over?

Voodoo magic and Talismans will never replace a good virus scanner at your side kid.



If I only use yahoo, then my worries about viruses is over?vincent



yes ONLY USE YAHOO AND NO MYSPACE AND YOU WILL BE FINE!!!
NO, you can get viruses from any site
No! Yahoo is just a web site with lots of links - and a little more. You can get a free antivirus by going to www.avg.com. There's a free version there that's awesome. Remember, sometimes viruses reside on webpages - or when you download programs - sometimes they come to you in e-mails. You absolutely need a virus protector.
No.



Get AVG Free and Norton Antivirus, depending on operating system.
No. You should always have an up-to-date virus scanner and firewall installed and running.



This is a great free virus scanner:



http://free.grisoft.com
If you don't open emails, you don't insert floppies or cd's or use a flash drive, if you use a firewall %26 don't use wi-fi or bluetooth, you can still get a virus.
you need alittle more than just a virus scanner program.



AVG is great use it myself



but you need a spyware program also so try AVG-anti virus or spybot search %26 destroy or superantispyware.com



also Ad-ware2007 for malware and a good fire wall like zonealarm



all but the superantispyware program can be downloaded from p.cworld.com for free.



and like they said virus are ever where so keep the programs update and run them often.

Hi.. Could you tell me if there is any downoad i could get to remove viruses off my computer?

Im just looking to see of there are any free downloads i could get that would remove them or quarantine them at least.. thanx

Hi there,



I would recommend Prevx1. This has recently been reported as having the most powerful protection and cleanup capabilities of all PC security programs currently available. It's an all-in-one solution that fights every type of malware (virii, spyware, adware, trojans, keyloggers, etc), therefore you no longer need 3 or 4 separate programs to combat each separate threat.



They are currently offering a Free Trial which will scan your PC and remove all infections free of charge. You can download this from their website at:

Hi.. Could you tell me if there is any downoad i could get to remove viruses off my computer?virus protection software



yes it is there.but first u will have to find out which virues it is.u can get downloads on symsntec.com
I also get this problem when I using Avast but try using Norton anti-virus, it really can help you in "killing" all your viruses. Don't download the Norton 2006 because you gonna pay for it. Just using the old version like 2005, it also cant help you clean your computer and you can get it free at www.download.com

What was the name of that 90s kids show where they fought viruses on a laptop?

it was like godzilla kind of monsters for the viruses, it wasnt vr troopers, power rangers, beetle borgs, reboot. i watched all those. i just remeber it was a laptop and the kid went into there and fought viruses, it was live action.



What was the name of that 90s kids show where they fought viruses on a laptop?spyware



"Superhuman Samurai Cyber Squad" (based on an updated version of the legendary Japanese character Ultraman) was the show you're trying to remember.



And the kid (played by Joey Lawrence's kid brother Stephen) didn't hop into a laptop (really didn't exist at the time as we know them) to enter the virtual world and transform into the hero...it was his PC.



What was the name of that 90s kids show where they fought viruses on a laptop?virus scan



There were several that had that senario, in Zeo it was called Mean Screan and in Dino thunder it was called A Ranger Exclusive.
That was Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad! That's such a great show, but unfortunately only lasted for 2 seasons.



It was actually Matthew Lawrence who starrred in the series, and though it was usually on the PC, they did sometimes go into the internet via a laptop owned by the character Sydney :)

I hate to be like this, but as a kid you should really just pay for your music! Itunes is 100% virus free. Or you can listen to music for free with napster.com. Any illegal music sharing service is going to have viruses because it is illegal, and they have no reason to protect you from viruses.

Hey there;



If your getting viruses and the such from lime wire, then your computer doesn't have enough protection. Make sure you have all the security updates, live updates on your virus program,( not the free ones). Also down load a program I tested when it was still in the beta process from Microsoft called " windows Defender". My household uses limewire all the time, and have never been hit with anything from there...Jim
purevolume.com
downloading free copyrighted material is illegal and should not be done at all. there is no websites that legally let you download the songs, but www.esnips.com is a place where you can listen to the songs, it does give the option to download, although not recommended because you will be infringing the copyright of the artist
For free music limewire's the best!!!



I use limewire as well, and I have never been affected by any viruses. You should get a better antivirus as someone else mentioned. I use avast, and it's pretty good! You should check it out!! Also try Prevx1.
You can't, most reputable sites charge for music downloads because they pay the artists. "Free" sites don't pay the artists and get their stuff from anywhere, I suggest you get a part time job and pay for music downloads.

Why waste your time hacking and infecting computers with viruses?

Why do alot of computer geeks waste time hacking into other's comps or creating new viruses which aggravate and annoy computer users? Why not do something productive instead of creating more problems and make decent people have to pay dearly for their ignorance and moronic behaviour? Wouldn't their time and energy be better used creating games, websites, educational tools online? But perhaps once a moron, always a moron?



Why waste your time hacking and infecting computers with viruses?virus protection software



They do this because they are bored. They are usually in their middle teens and come home to an empty house. Since Mom and Dad aren't around enough, they take their anger and direct it at people like you and me. I have not made this up. Microsoft has published these findings after long investigations of these dirtbags.



I agree that their time can be better spent and utilized. Preferrably in the State or Fedral Prisons where they should be.



Why waste your time hacking and infecting computers with viruses?adware



Nope. Cracking is a good revenge tool. Just because you can crack a computer doesn't mean you're automatically some superprogrammer who can program anything you know. Remember, hackers and crackers are two completely different things. Hackers are programmers, crackers break and enter.

Is it true that Mac&#039;s can&#039;t get viruses?

Is that true? Or do people just not bother with writing viruses for Mac's because they prefer doing them for PC's.



Is it true that Mac's can't get viruses?virus protection



The latter. PCs, because of the complexity and many vulnerabilities of Windows and common Windows applications is a much bigger target - if you're a virus writer, you hav a choice of going after 90% + of the desktop PCs in the world, or 6% for Macs - the Windows PCs are easier to attack, easier to take over, and easier to control en masse, which is why the Storm botnet, for example,



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_botne...



is a major threat to internet security.



Is it true that Mac's can't get viruses?agv



The level of sophistication is higher, therefore the virus that do exsist are not detectable as the analysts are not given access to proprietary Apple systems.



Often Mac users have the same bias XP sp1 users had for the first few months.



Do you ever wonder why Apple has a back door into the systems and no one complains.
Mac's make up a small portion of total computer users, something like 10%. So people don't waste their time writing them for macs cause they would affect a lot less people.



Even if they "can't" get them... Hackers would find a way to write one.
No, it is possible. But there are much less people on the internet running a mac, then people with windows machine that have expired anti virus definitions. I believe the only way the virus on the mac is installed is after you download it and mac will ask for your password.
They can see the link i've given you
technically, but it's only because so little people are using macs as compared to pcs. Before just recently, they have never had a virus

Also try www.modthesims2.com for great stuff. If you have the space, make backups of your EA Games folder in My Documents. That way if you add an object or mod that causes problems, you can go back to the way the folder was before.

no, the program doesn't have any viruses,

Limewire is a program that serches the internet

Limewire is an easy way to have your identity stolen.

also, other people (mostly college students)

Is limewire harmfull to computers if I downloaded it? viruses?antispyware



The actual program wont contain any viruses. You can go to www.download.com and find it available there for download.



As far as the media you download, thats another story. The first advice is, don't download movies. They are historically the most infected files (especially porn and any brand new movies that might have just recently been released in theaters).



I usually stick to songs that have been around for a long time (at least a year or so). And I also download files that a bunch of other people have (it makes the download faster, and has a less chance of containing a virus).



Hope at least some of that info helps.
all peer to peer sharing leaves you completely exposed to any manner of virus. your hard drive is open for anyone to come inside and do what they please.

What are some similarities and differences between bacteria and viruses?

Compare and contrast bacteria and viruses. Provide at least two similarities and two differences.



What are some similarities and differences between bacteria and viruses?windows



Similarities:



both are microscopic



both can cause sickness in other organisms



Differences:



Viruses are considered both livng AND nonliving, bacteria are simply alive



Viruses reproduce by putting their DNA into the cells of a host, bacteria reproduce by literally splitting in half (binary fission) and making two new bacteria.



viruses



What are some similarities and differences between bacteria and viruses?antivirus download



Both are microscopic. Viruses only reproduce within a living cell and are smaller than bacteria. Bacteria are single-celled and can reproduce independently. Most bacteria are helpful, most viruses are harmful.
Bacteria- show all characteristics of life and can be treated with antibiotics



Viruses- do not show all characteristics of life and can be treated with vaccines



Both- respond to change (stimulus), and contain hereditary material
Both are microscopic organisms that can cause a disease, that's why there are called pathogens.



Bacteria is present everywhere, including are body and not all bacteria cause a disease.These are our natural flora inside our body. Unless they are present in situations that can lead them to become opportunistic and can make them a pathogen such as the E. Coli bacteria. Diseases caused by bacteria needs antibitiocs.



Viruses on the other hand need a host cell in order to live. Without a host cell, they can't replicate. Some viruses are self-limiting that requires no medications such as in the case of common colds.



The genetic component of bacteria and viruses also differs. The bacteria can have both DNA and RNA but a virus has only RNA...



Bacteria come in different sizes and shape. So as viruses but they are much smaller than bacteria.
