'System Security' Malware help, please! Installed Verizon security suite, now it's back again.

We received the System Security malware on our computer.  We thought we removed it completely because initially the malware prevented the Verizon security suite from running.
After we deleted the virus and the program attached, we were able to install the Verizon Internet Security suite. Lo and behold, two hours later (after a successful complete scan) the malware was back with NO warning from Verizon Security Suite.
Can someone please tell me how to remove this malicious program and also why the security suite gave no warning before it re-attached itself to our computer?
Any help is greatly appreciated, as our laptop is heavily used and we do not have the money or the time to have it completely wiped clean.
Thank you!!

its really dependant on what type of malware is installed.
if u can get the exact name of it ... it should be something like name.malware .. something like that
do a google for "remove name.malware " or whatever the name of it is, and chances are the first 3 responses will be how to remove it
keep in mind that ABSOLUTELY NO VIRUS PROTECTION ON EARTH EVER , can protect you from every single virus/malware ... things change too fast for everythign to keep up 100% of the time
... and by the way, i like turtles

  • Installer unable to validate security update- help please

    i keep getting installer unable to install...security updates 2010-03/quicktime updates and so on. Why is this happening and how can i fix it. I have tried Onyx and clean my mac to try and clean up files in hopes it will randomly update and fix. im getting frustrated right now and I need some advise and direction. Onyx says my volume is ok.

    Move all the files that have softwareupdate in their title out of your user's /Library/Preferences/ and ByHost subfolder, restart, and try again. If that doesn't do it, then boot with your Leopard install disk and reinstall it, selecting the Archive & Install, saving user and network settings, option. If that fixes the issue, run Software Update and bring the OS back up to 10.5.8. If not, then I'm out of ideas.

  • Security issue I find with Verizon Internet Suite???

    I have strange behavior within my connection to Verizon router, internet suite and windows XP that I cannot seem to get help with. I have inquired many times as to why the security suite utilizes "ports" which are regularly exploited by hackers in order to gain access to network computers attached to Internet. Here's the problem as I see it
    ...I have regular hits on port 1900 plus similar packets dropped at port 5000 from what I could only surmise was the suite itself ...there is also similar connection of which I cannot interrogate nor investigate as it does not allow. Why would a Internet or network suite utilize known unsecured ports that can easily be exploited. I use no messaging service (messenger, etc,.), no games (not even MS games added as default in XP), no extraneous add-ons at all. I use "nothing but NET" ...lol ...on this machine ...with exception of such times when adobe or media player is needed, and  I've disabled the updating for these 2 programs. This is basically an internet browsing computer. I won't go into the topology behind it because its really unimportant to this issue.
    The Actiontec router, itself, of course has allocated all sorts of port openings for such services as I listed above. Which ones are really needed and how do I disable or make adjustments to it so that my port 1900 is stealthiest to the internet. My goal is to become as invisable as possible on the internet, I wish to STEALTH this port, for the same reason I wouldn't leave my house key in my front or back door so that just anybody wandering by might notice thus they cannot have access into my house without my permission.
    I have achieved some steathiness but there's their seems to be a big hole and Internet suite has nothing in it to disable it or stealthy way to utilize it. I seem to have similar problems with being "Ping" requests. I have half of that job done but I cannot achieve a full stealth mode, as I can be pinged but with no response. According to networking resources this makes me vulnerable for any hacker who has the patience to wait for an opening of any exposed ports. I feel no need to have ports open that are not needed, can anybody help me?  Now I'm no netwoking engineer so "ports" meant very little to me until now however I would like to learn ...SMNP, ALG , yada, yada means is "GREEK" to me. ANSWERS with open the port or close the port scenerios ...please ... in layman's terms would be nice too. 65565 is a lot of ports to go through so strings of ports are useful too.

    1. If you have plug and play enabled, software can open ports on the router.
    2. What do you mean by Internet Suite? Do you have Verizon's software installed?
    3. Do you have TV service? If so there are ports that are required to be open so the Web can talk to the STB.
    4. Disabling ping or changing settings on the router can hinder troubleshooting if you were to call for support.
    5. There are 3rd party software firewalls that can be run on XP or software that can control the firewall in Vista.
    6. If you are really concerned about security you could place another router on the LAN port of the Actiontec and put all your PC hardware on the new routers lan. This would put all hardware on the Actiontec and your PCs on different networks. (Double NAT) So even if the internet could get through your first router it would be unlikely they would get through the second.
    7. You could adjust the firewall settings on the Actiontec to lock down some of the ports and or ("Stealth the ports")
    GRC among other websites can scan your system for open ports. http://www.grc.com/default.htm go to the ShieldsUp page.
    Even if your ports can not be seen, or are stealth, there are scanners and viruses on the Internet that can blindy hit ports that are not even indicated as being there. Your firewall logs will show these packets as dropped.

  • Help, please, installing new Flash Player

    I have an iMac widescreen Mac OS X version 10.6.8.
    I have downloaded and installed the new Flash Player five times, but still get 'Blocked Plug-in' over and over, even on the Adobe site.  What next, please?

    Hello,

  • Adressbook on new MacBookPro with 10.67 very very slow and so the whole system...help please?!

    I already deleted intelligent groups, deleted half of the contacts, deleted preferences and reimported contacts after deleting and so on....no clue the addressbook is slowing the whole system down it seems. What to do?

    Nope, it came with the upgrade to 10.7.2.
    I've also tried to reinstall Lion yesterday. Nothing changed.
    I've not visited the Cisco support site but I did a bit of search and it seems that nobody, except me, has this problem.
    Certificates in the keychain file?! I'm just browsing to facebook on https for example... Don't know what you mean exactly with certificates. But anyway, this is not the problem, rather I think that this is just a part of the bigger problem. ;-)
    At home each SSL secured website works pretty good.

  • System restore cd help please

    Okay I use a Powerbook G4.
    -I used the restore cd from boot
    -I chose the option to erase the drive and re-install OSX
    I find it unusual that the time remaining says 60+ hours. Also, when I look at the log while it is installing, I see a few errors "failed to write". It has been on "Processing base system part 1" for many hours now. I feel like something is going wrong.
    I want to turn off my Powerbook but it is in the middle of an important installation, would this completely mess up my powerbook? I need advice, im pretty sure I messed up somewhere. If I did what are some steps to resolve this? Sorry I am new to this forum and if this question came up already, I apologize.

    since the drive was erased, you can't daamge anything by shutting down
    you can shut down by pressing power button until PowerBook shuts down
    very slow installation could be caused by scratched or dirty CD/DVD or hardware problem with the hard drive, RAM or logic board

  • Please Help.  Installed iTunes 7 and now my 4G iPod & Shuffle won't sync !

    And please don't refer me to the basic "uninstall/re-install" crap. It doesn't work. Have any other windows users experienced this?
    Oh and also the "find album art" doesn't work and I can't turn the "shared" stuff off. I go to preferences and de-select everything on sharing, then lo and behold it automatically puts the check mark right back in!
    However the last 2 problems pale in comparison to not being able to sync my 4G or Shuffle!

  • Help! Installed new RAM and now screen isn't coming on!

    Hi
    I'm in a bit of a mess and would be grateful for any help with this one:
    I have a Powerbook G3 500mhz Pismo that currently has a 512mb card in the top slot (Kingston PB100/512) that I installed about two years ago with no problems and an original 128mb in the bottom. At Christmas I bought another 512mb for the bottom slot – (Kingston KTA-PBG4/512 - This one is smaller than the first but it was the one reccomended by Kingston on their website for the Pismo).
    I have just got round to installing it after backing up my system and I have good instructions on how to do it (I have replaced the HD two years previous with no problems)
    Firstly I have to mention that just before I changed the RAM the laptop fell from a small stool (about 1.5feet high) onto carpet due to the unbalancing effect of taking out the battery/CD ROM. It landed on its edge where the power socket is. I immediately put it back together and turned it on to make sure it was ok - it came on fine and there were no problems visually, mechanically or otherwise, so I carried on with the installation.
    I installed the new 512mb card in the bottom slot and re-assembled but when I turned it on the screen remained black! From the computer itself, however, it sounded as if it had started up ok – there was the chime and the familiar sound of the hard drive at start up.
    To troubleshoot I removed the new RAM card and put back the old RAM as it was – this made no difference. I checked to see if the processor board was firmly in place or if I had dislodged any connectors by mistake within the area that I had worked but this made no difference. I also tried to re-set the parameter RAM and this made no difference.
    Because the laptop took a small knock prior to installation, I am not sure if that has caused something to come loose or damage of some kind but as I mentioned I did test it immediately and it worked, so it’s either a delayed reaction or the new RAM card has caused it. – (As mentioned there is a difference between the two 512 cards in both name and size but the smaller size of the newer one I assume just reflects advancement in technology and it was reccomended by Kingston!)
    If anybody has any advice on this I would be very grateful (and also, if anybody can point me in the direction of instructions on how to take the pismo apart to get to the connections to the screen that would be great – in case I have to do it)
    Many Thanks Barry
    PowerBook G3500mhz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    SpottyFox,
    It sounds like you are properly seating the CPU card from your description, so I don't believe that is your problem. I am glad you checked the pins (I should have mentioned that as the next step if the reseating did not help). I cannot answer whether anything was damaged from your description of the pins; I have read where others have realigned bent pins with success so maybe your mileage will vary.
    Start up your Pismo, then shine a flashlight directly into the display; if you can see data being written to the display, just the backlight is refusing to light. If this is the case, check the inverter board connections. The inverter is under the clutch cover and powers the fluorescent backlight in the display. Enlarge the bottom picture in this link to see the inverter:
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/PowerBook-G3-Pismo/Inverter-Page-10-Inverter
    Check connections at each end of the inverter. Disassembly is not as extensive as this guide suggests. Support the back of the display, then remove the main battery, optical drive, lay the keyboard on its face on the palm rest, heat shield, and clutch cover...that's it.
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/6.0.0.html
    You might also connect the Pismo to an external display; failure here would suggest a more serious problem.
