    Default Symantec anti virus

    I dont know if Symantec has anti virus or not. I did a search for Symantec files. There were 5 but I did not open them. I don't know that much about computers.

    Default

    So this will then help:

    To access the Uninstall Manager you would do the following:

    1. Start HijackThis
    2. Click on the Config button
    3. Click on the Misc Tools button
    4. Click on the Open Uninstall Manager button.

    You will now be presented with a screen similar to the one below:



    5. Click on the Save list... button and specify where you would like to save this file. When you press Save button a notepad will open with the contents of that file. Simply copy and paste the contents of that notepad here on your next reply.

    Default Security Downloads & Updates

    Hello Shaba,


    I've downloaded the programs you suggested. I have also
    Been to Microsoft.com to look at my update download history. The
    only download I could not get was an old "Failed Installation - Error
    Code 0x8024600a " Microsoft. Net Framework 2.0Service Pack 1.
    Im not sure if they sill offer it.


    Thanks...........

    Latest version is 2.0, yes.

    Is it OK to redirect you to some windows forum for that issue?
