I forgot what I was doing when I received an error code 0x I looked this up and the link led me to reg cure's website. Should not these have been found by the security essentials? Go to Solution.
Regcure is a so-called "registry cleaner". My security will not allow me to visit the Regcure site. I'm glad you uninstalled StopSign. Here is my standard list of simple steps that you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future. Install FREE Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware as part of your routine cleaning procedures, keep it updated and use it to scan every so often for malware, or upgrade to the paid version for realtime scanning and auto updating.
The following suggestions are general prevention and are not customized for your computer. You may have already taken some of these steps, and depending on your current security, you may not need to implement all of these:.
The first defense against infection is a properly patched OS from Microsoft Update at update. More info HERE. Please use a firewall and realtime anti-virus. Keep the anti-virus software and firewall software up to date.. Run a complete system scan with your anti-virus at least once a week If you prefer not to use the Windows Firewall, there are several of the freeware Firewalls available on the public domain. Using an alternate browser can reduce your chance of certain infections installing themselves.
Do not use file sharing. Even the safest P2P file sharing programs that do not contain bundled spyware, still expose you to risks because of the very nature of the P2P file sharing process.
By default, most P2P file sharing programs are configured to automatically launch at startup. They are also configured to allow other P2P users on the same network open access to a shared directory on your computer. The reason for this is simple.
File sharing relies on its members giving and gaining unfettered access to computers across the P2P network. However, this practice can make you vulnerable to data and identity theft. Even if you change those risky default settings to a safer configuration, the act of downloading files from an anonymous source greatly increases your exposure to infection. That is because the files you are downloading may actually contain a disguised threat. Many very malicious worms and trojans, such as the Storm Worm, target and spread across P2P files sharing networks because of their known vulnerabilities.
Keep your software updated Web Of Trust , uses colored alerts to warn about risky websites warns you about risky websites that try to scam visitors, deliver malware or send spam. System administrators choose applications that they wish to block. The 'Currently installed programs' list in the 'Add or Remove Programs' tool lists all of the Windows-compatible programs that have an uninstall program or feature. Remove a controlled application using a specific application uninstaller.
At the time of installation, many applications have their own uninstall file that is placed in the same directory or program group. Should this option not be available, double-click the uninstall file applicable to the specific application.
Note: A few of our controlled applications will not be removable because they are embedded within your operating system. However, you can set your Application Control policy to send only a single alert per endpoint, so you will only be alerted once about any embedded applications.
A single alert is the default setting. If you want to re-authorize a blocked application, then you'll find re-authorization instructions in this knowledgebase article. Can someone please give me some advice? They keep popping up!
You did not tell us your operating system. If Dell has been assisting you, what steps have you taken to try to resolve the situation? Are your resident anti-virus and anti-spyware programs working?
Please disable other security software that may cause conflicts with the scans. Don't forget to enable it afterward. Instructions on how to do that are HERE. Extra Notes: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.

Once downloaded, rename the program installer "mbam-setup. Copy the installer file and the update file to a CD or flash drive. Transfer the file to the infected computer.
Install the "catchjunk. Double-click that icon to launch the program. If not, update the definitions before scanning by selecting " Check for Updates ".
