    Computer shutdown by NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM

    My machine was suffering from lags and some lockups; it occurred just that one time. Firefox would initiate but the window would not open. The PC shut down by "NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM" prompt; so I had no control over what occurred. I did remove PC Tool's Threatfire because I had a nudge that may...

    iTouch 4G's Retina Display

    I have always wondered what a game that was did not support Retina Display would look like if it was played on the iTouch 4G. Would the quality (game being displayed on the screen) be worse off? Such as jagged edges and pixel-ation?

    PcMagazine endorses CyberDefender

    Quite random really, but I never thought it would be possible. Page 71 of the October 2010 issue (EXPOSED!) features an ad of the rogue AV company. I have been a bit outdated about their software but it still seems to me that they have not received the green light from WOT. I do not know about...

    Definition Sets untick themselves after weekly update.

    I have made sure I had reticked all the items (except Tracks) and updated to the latest definitions. Except the problem here is that the boxes unticked themselves right after the update. What is going on?

    Apple, think different...

    about how you should choose your next player. http://forums.spybot.info/blog.php?b=8 - Apple, apparently has a very difficult time answering their customers questions when they doubt Apple's quality of work. Reminds of me of Global class, during the French Revolution when dictators would send...

    Does Windows 7 RC install on a blank drive?

    Windows 7> Windows XP. Simple. Anyways, I would like some advice on this question. I plan to reformat my HD, but the catch is that it is with DBAN's Nuke and Boot. Which literally erases everything. Will Windows 7's .iso (burnt to a disc) run after I restart my PC after running a DBAN sweep...

    Are other sites allowed to sell SpyBot?

    1. SaferNetworking does not associate anyway with rogue companies that scam users and uses deceptive marketing techniques to gain money. 2. Spybot-Search&Destroy is free for personal use. No subscriptions, no fees, nothing.

    How much money would you shell out to get our data back?

    Recently, my Seagate external HD broke since it was making beeping noises. Seagate Tech Support told me that the beeping noise usually means that the drive has a power failure or it is a bad hard drive. The Community Forums wasn't very helpful either, as there was no response to my query. I'm...

    Help Blog.

    I guess I might do one of this for the forums :santa:. This entry basically summarizes a majority of the functions and what it does. When you start Spybot-Search&Destroy you'll be presented with options such as: Scan for Problems Immunization Search for Updates Recovery The primary function of...

    Query about SDDT result

    I was just looking at the "My Scan" portion in the forum Control Panel and one of the columns had a 1 in the Result. When I clicked on it, it was a registry value. I would like to know what this means and if it has to do with anything on my computer.

    Last error fixed... "1969".

    Trojan.Dropper

    Spybot-Search&Destroy's integrated right-click scanning does not detect it. http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/414633e39b8cfe694c49464b34acfd42 - It was detected as WMP:Wimad(Drp.) by avast!. I'm not sure why it is not detected by VirusTotal. I've compressed it in a .rar format.

    Blacklisted browser toolbar allowed.

    I'm not sure how to say this... I was just on the computer this morning and TeaTimer popped up with a balloon. What intrigued me was that it was allowed so I took a look at the log: 8/19/2008 10:10:15 AM Allowed (based on lassh blacklist) value "{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1}" (new...

    Most recent Spybot, stable or beta.

    Not sure if this thread has been mentioned... but I would like to know the latest version of Spybot-SD (beta if possible). I heard that there was v.1.6.0.31, although I'm unclear of the details. I've downloaded all the beta updates including the detection updates for the week and Spybot still...

    Another false positive…?

    Any reason why you have not upgraded to v.1.5.2.20 yet? This problem seems to be that there is an incompatibility issue with newer updates intended for 1.5.2 on Spybot-SD 1.3. -- http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=208640&postcount=2 --

    BartPE?

    I've been seeing a lot of discussion about this "BartPE" disc. All that I know is that it's more like loading Windows normally, but on a disc. This is the solution for Windows to remove spyware, viruses, and rootkits. Question would be: ~What does it really do besides my short description...

    Apple. Great fruit to eat. ;0

    So, the story was that I received an iPod as a gift. I thought, "Hey, look at this cool music device". So I started exploring, by diving into the settings. The customization part was fun... Next came to adding the songs... toughie. Thing is that I couldn't add any songs, without using the...

    Directories.

    I have a question. Is this something that shouldn't be there? Or should I leave it alone? I've found some four folders in the DIRECTORIES tab in Spybot-SD. They all end with... /Temp/. Question is that should they be there? Thanks.

    Secure Shredder

    I happen to come upon an important document that I wanted to delete. However, I know that just dropping it in the Recycle would not do. It could be easily recovered (the reference in the data table is deleted). I couldn't find a "shredder" which will securely delete the file, making it...
