Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter.FirewallBypass

[mr.ack]

Hi there, this is the first time I have ever found a problem in my computer. S&D found Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter.FirewallBypass the other day. I selected 'fix problem' but on the next reboot and scan the problem was still there. In addition to this, and I assume it is related I have had a pop up from the Windows Security saying it has found a problem with Internet Explorer and asked whether it should keep blocking it. I selected 'yes'.

I use Firefox for all my browsing and only use IE for updating windows. Can I safely use Firefox in the meantime or is this problem likely to be spyware that can see what I do in Firefox too?

I have followed the advice in the sticky at the top of the forum, installed and saved a registry backup with ERUNT and turned off Tea Timer in advanced mode. The only problem was the link to the ResetTeaTimer.bat when I clicked on it it only seemed to link to a page of code. Am I missing something?

Thank you in advance for any help you can give!

Thank you for the reply pskelley, I appreciate the help.

I read 'before you post' thread a few times through before posting, I'm not sure if there is something i am missing? the faq links were new to me and i have now read them but i am still a little bit confused.

If I understand right, the Windows Security Center bypass is flagged in spybot because a notification was disabled in the security center. I do not remember changing any notification manually, how do I find out which notifcation has been turned off?

Sorry to be so clueless, but this means that I am not currently infected and there is just a risk present?

Ah, ok. I will use the other forum, just to be 100% though: I'm clear right?

Thanks for your help and sorry to have wasted your time!

Pskelley, I posted in the forum you suggested and they gave me a link to a forum called Major Geeks:

I actually came across this myself while I was awaiting your initial reply but I didn't want to try the steps it mentions in the third post there in case they were specially tailored for that users computer.

Would you recommend I follow these steps to be sure I do not have the Trojan they mention there?
