BT Netprotect Plus stops Encore runnning

All the elements of Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 run OK except Encore.  It keeps dropping back to the window that asks if you want to open or create a project.  I discovered that with Real Time Scanning switched off it runs OK.  Does anyone know how I make BT Netprotect like Encore?
Cheers

I have seen a similar degredation of my PC's peformance, but mine seems to be a bit more drastic (10-15 minutes between functions). My software loooks like it auto updated within the same week as your original post.
I'm unable to perform a scan as it mentions that it has encountered an error . I can't even tell if my Anit-V is working correctly now .
I'm looking at trying out the following different remedies:
- Start in Safe Mode and try to run quick, then a full, PC Scan; just in case anything nasty has slipped through.
- If that fails, try to uninstall/reinstall the software.
If all of the above fail, my only solution will be to try to back up my pc and reformat (here's hoping it doesn't come to that; although I have just bought an external 1Tb storage device to perform the backup...)

  • BT Netprotect Plus and Home Network.

    I have just upgraded to BT Infinity and BT Netprotect Plus. My old Desktop, with LAN, and my Netbook ,wireless, both run Windows XP and previously had Mcafee Internet Security on both. Prior to the 'upgrade' the home network was fine. Now in lets call it 'Mcafee', Home Networks, My Home Network, the Desktop sees the Netbook as having an 'old' version of Mcafee although it has been uploaded three times, the latest today. This stops me in my tracks trying to get the network working again. BT Help was no help, apart from, offering to charge me to sort out something which was no problem before. Any good ideas out there?

  • BT NetProtect plus – Real time scanning and update...

    I have posted this message as both a pointer in case others have the same issue as well as whether anyone has found a proper resolution.
    I have recently experianced problems with my BT NetProtect plus indicating the Real time scanning has stopped and any attempt to restart it does not work. This is accompanied with it keep promptig that there is a new update and to restart the computer. This happened every time I logged on.
    I had spent some considerable time with the BT support people who have now reinstalled the software about 6 time's after the 2 time I had already tried.
    I run Windows 7 64 bit and recently installed an SSD drive. The key thing I have subsequently discovered in my upgrade is that I changed some registry settings to make my default installation location to be my D: drive. I followed this post :
    The 64bit version has two versions of regedit. Make this change as well:
    1.) Enter into Start>Run: %systemroot%\syswow64\regedit 2.) Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion 3.) Change the Path in DWORDs ProgramFilesDir, ProgramFilesDir (x86) to the new path, probably just changing the drive letter
    Everything works fine apart from BT NetProtect plus which when installed new has the above issue.  If I change the default install location back to C: drive then it installs OK and works OK when I subsequently change the default install location back to the D: drive. When I say works OK, that is until BT NetProtect plus issues a major update when the same problem appears again.
    I am waiting further contact from the 3rd line helpdesk but the 2nd line team did not seam to know of this problem.
    Has anyone else experenced it or know of a proper solution ?

    A full McAfee scan on my desktop PC can take about 2 hours or so and a full scan sometimes slows down my over 3 year old desktop PC. Thats why I only do a full McAfee scan every once in a while but I do a quick McAfee scan every 6 or 7 days.
    I do like the McAfee shredder though and use that now and again. I also got McAfee quick clean set to run at lest twice a week.  
    I have used Norton in the past and that slowed down my last PC more than McAfee from BT. The free version of AVG is good but its only an anti-virus. Some say the windows firewall is ok but not the best.
    I also have windows defender set to do a quick scan every evening around 9pm. As most nights I have my Desktop PC on at that time.
    I also do a disk clean up at leat once a day.

  • BT NetProtect Plus

    Apparently I am able to install BT NetProtect Plus on a maximum of 7 computers. I have only ever installed it on 3. But I had to reinstall Windows 7 on two of them and so therefore had to re-install BT NetProtect Plus. Now however when I log onto My Account for the anti virus product it says I have it active on 6 computers, which I don't because I only have 3.
    Anybody know what I'm talking about and know how I can stop it registering as 6 computers actively using it on the My Account part of the website for NetProtect Plus?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    I had a similar issue when I used McAfee purchased direct, and their UK customer service line 02079490107 proved to be very helpful. I'm not sure whether they would be so obliging with a third-party product but it might be worth a try.
    (It's a pity the AV didn't match the customer service - I ditched it in favour of MSE with a year of my subscription left.)

  • BT NetProtect Plus - cannot get rid of desktop sho...

    I had to reinstall BT NetProtect Plus. Now it puts a desktop shortcut (on the desktop) each time PC boots up, even if it has been previously deleted.
    I cannot find a setting in the product to remove the icon, and a browse through the registry did not show any obvious setting to stop it being added.
    Any one know of a way of getting rid of this?
    Also... BT why do you insist on adding this, especially as it in the system tray.

    Would you like to ask the rest of the forum members?
    McAfee rolled out an update a while back, you need the latest version installed, have a read - https://community.mcafee.com/docs/DOC-3361
    This should sort out the BTNP version - open BTNP, navigate to update and select it.
    Then after it's updated, simply try deleting the icon again.
    Can't really give any more help as I've stopped using BTNP

  • Problem installing NetProtect Plus

    Yesterday I upgraded to Windows 7 from XP on a desktop computer that previously had NetProtect running. After a clean install of the OS I tried to install NetProtect Plus via the "download BT Software" link. I created and logged in to a McAfee account, but when I ran the installer I got the message:
    "We're sorry, but there are no programs that you can install from this McAfee account. Please log in with another McAfee account, and try installing again."
    Net Protect is still running and updating OK on my netbook which is also running Windows 7, but this was installed before the requirement to register an account with McAfee.

  • Can't install BT NetProtect Plus on Windows 7 Prof...

    I can't install BT NetProtect Plus on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with IE9 after my 12 month free McAfee package exspired. It seems to have uninstalled the free version by stops after I press the "I agree" button in response the licensing question. All that's shown on blank window arethe BTY and McAfee logos Have tried the following: - uninstalling Firefox (including No Script add in) - restoring system to a time before the free McAfee exspired - checked Scripting of Java Applets ins enabled - pop up blocker is disabled - pressed Compatibilty Button on address bar When trying to submit feedback to a FAQ I noticed a "Javascript:void(0)" error and couldn't submit it.Likewise, when I tried to spel lcheck the first version of this post, I lost it all with an error. I've exhausted my own attempts and would appreciate some advise on what to try next.

    I solved the problem by installing an alternative security software product, uninstalling IE9 and going back to IE8. For some reason javascript wasn't working in IE9 despite being enabled in the security settings.
    Uninstalling the free version of McAfee seemed to have screwed up javascript in IE9 which then prevented BT Netprotect from installing.

  • Problems downloading Bt netprotect plus

    Hi I have just tried downloading BT netprotect plus, its asks me to enter my email address and password which I do, it then asks me to agree to the terms and conditions, which i agree to, but the next page that loads up is blank, with just the Mcafee logo in the top corner. and so I am unable to complete the process of downloading Net protect, any help would be much appreciated thanks !
    Solved!

     I had problems with my McAfee it went rogue in that it stopped me getting on line even when it was switched off so I uninstalled it and downloaded a new one .....not a good idea as it was the new beta one and it doesn't start at boot up, I have to remember to manually switch it on.
    Spoke to a nice man from India but he didn't know how to help so it looks like I'm stuck with this beta rubbish for the time being.
     If you present McAfee is working I would hold on the new one for a while but then it might be ok on other op systems.

  • BT NetProtect Plus Windows permission

    For the past week or so, every time I boot up my computer, after a couple of minutes Windows tells me I have no anti-virus or anti-spyware.  This seems to happen as I start Outlook or Internet Explorer, though that might be a coincidence and it's just a timing thing.  Windows gives me the option to start the McAfee software, which I click, then asks if I trust the publisher and want to run the program.  I have to go through these steps for both the anti-virus and anti-spyware, then repeat it all again.
    I have checked Task Manager immediately after booting into Windows, and always McShield.exe takes a lot of procesor for a minute or so, so it does start when I boot up, then apparently stops again (possibly when it tries to fetch updates?)
    Can anyone tell me why this happens and if there is anything I can do to stop it.  For one thing, I'm surprised windows doesn't recognise McAfee as a trusted publisher!
    I have Windows 7 32-bit if it's relevant.
    Update:  2nd August - Today I got the Windows alerts/prompts before starting any programs so I guess it must be a time thing rather than triggered by starting a program.  It only seems to happen on my desktop, not my laptop.  and I have run a virus scan.

    Theres a bit more information on this at www.bt.com/windows8

  • Netprotect plus. Real-time scanning constantly swi...

    I keep getting told my "Computer is at risk".  When I check, I find my "Real-Time scanning" is switched off.  However I try, when I switch it back on, moments later it is off again.  With a bit of fiddling about, I can get it to remain "active".  However, the moment I open "Outlook Express 6" I become unprotected, once again.  Thereafter, "Netprotect Plus" is overly sensitive and drops out continually, even if I've closed " Outlook Express 6".  I have to fiddle about with it again, making sure "Outlook Express" is closed, to get it to remain operating "as it should". 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The real time scanner can become disabled (turned off) if
    1) There's a conflict with another installed antivirus software
       (for example, I had to remove MSE, not just deactivate it)
    2) There's a virus on the PC - I suggest using Malwarebytes (can be used with BTNP)
       http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/
       Pay close attention during download to make sure you untick any toolbars or additional extras
       (A desktop shortcut is all you need and you can manually update, rather than automatically)
       You could be suprised by what it finds that BTNP didn't!
    3) A BTNP update didn't install correctly
    4) You've carried out a system restore on your PC - BTNP should update and correct itself after a short time
    Possible solutions
    remove BTNP using add/remove
    Use the McAfee removal tool (steps 1&2 only) - http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507
    Then download it again.
    or
    XP - Click Start, Run, type services.msc, and click OK.
    Vista or 7 - Type services.msc in search, right-click services, select Run As Administrator, then click Yes.
    Look for McShield service and check the status.
    If the status is Stopped, right-click the McShield service and click Start.
    When McShield displays started, close the window.
    Open BTNP and verify that Real-Time Scanning is enabled.
    Close BTNP
    Restart computer and check real time scanner again.
    If Real-Time Scanning still switches off
    *Download and run the oas-disabled-fix.cmd utility
    http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/oas-disabled-fix.cmd
    Restart the computer after tool completes.
    The real time scanner should stay enabled now.

  • Installed BT NetProtect Plus now I cannot access m...

    Hi,
    I thought I was doing the right thing by installing BT NetProtect plus on my Windows XP Pro PC however ever since I have had issues.  I can no longer browse my home network to access shared files - when I double-click my workgroup I get an error of 'MSHOME is not accessible, you may not have permission to use this network resource'.  I did not get this prior to the installation.   I tried initially just disabling the firewall - at least this allowed other PCs to browse the shares on my PC but it did not help on my PC. 
    I have now uninstalled NetProtect Plus but this has not resolved the issue.  It would seem that the software has changed some setting but not reset it when removed.
    I do have File and Printer sharing enabled on my PC
    I have enabled WINS
    I do have the Computer Browser Service running
    All of these were suggestions on the Internet.  Still no luck. 
    Please any other suggestions would be most welcome as I need to be able to access the network for my work.

    Some things that might be worth checking.
    The account/share password if any is still correct.
    The Log On  credentials for the appropriate System Services are still correct (cross check any details using your other PCs )
    The User/Admin Account you are using still has the proper credentials & access rights, particularly to the folders you have shared.

  • BT NetProtect Plus Problems

    Just wondering if anyone has had problems with bt netprotect plus and found any solutions. I was a customer of McAfee for some years, I upgraded to BT Broadband Option 2 with bt netprotect plus provided by McAfee included, my original McAfee software was about to expire and I had followed the link to bt netprotect plus which appeared to download and install, during installation messages appeared telling me old files were being removed and updated, however, on the day my old McAfee expired a message appeared requesting payment to extend subscription, I contacted McAfee to inform them I was now with bt netprotect plus, I sign in under a different password to bt netprotect, however, it always defaults to my old account which is now expired with no software available, I contacted bt customer help, I was transferred to bt technical help who remotely took over 2 desktop computers in my home both have Window 7, the technician informed me bt netprotect plus was incompatible with windows 7, I did question so why are you installing software onto my computer which is incompatible, following the remote installation of bt netprotect plus, I tried to restart both computers to find I was unable to boot up both, the internal fans are running fast and loud, the DVD RW & DVD ROM drive light up, then that's it, the hardrive indicator light remain on, there is no signal to the pc monitor or any other devices (keyboard or mouse) I contacted bt for help, well they can't help me as I have nothing on my screen, I ask for help again today, it can't be the software, we're really sorry but can't offer any help, it is frustrating to have so much conflicting advice, customer service were helpful and understanding and gave me a number to contact bt technical help with the advice of asking for a supervisor, however, they are unable to offer any explanation as to why following remote access to my computers, and changing the system settings, I now have 2 computers that are now useless, the parting advice was to go to computer shop to have them repaired at my expense, the only computer working is my laptop, which was the first pc I was able to download bt netprotect plus to and is working okay, but I'm fearful that it will die to and I'll be left in the dark. I would be grateful if any other bt customers have had similar problems and found any solutions, I can't afford to right off hundreds of pounds worth of equipment, I wished I had never changed to option 2 and kept things as they were, I have never had any problems with BT, McAfee or my desktops prior to this incident.  Thanks

    Hi Stuart,
    Thanks for the e-mail. I am really sorry for the problems that you have had, quite a frustrating issue I fully appreciate.
    I can see that there is an open complaint on your account in which a team is actively dealing with this case. As far as I can see the last note on the complaint is that you have agreed to bring the PC in question to a Vendor to have it checked. Is that correct?
    I really don't think that this issue could have been caused by the action of the advisor who took remote access control of your PC. The actions the advisor took where all at software level but the problems that you describe indicate that the power was off on the PC and monitor when you returned. I am not aware of any changes anyone could make via your operating system that would cause you to lose power to the PC components.
    As I say there is a team already dealing with this issue so there is not much we can do in the mean time as too many departments dealing with this could prove very confusing. I would however be very interested to learn of the outcome of this case.. If there is anything else that I can help you with please drop me a reply.
    REPLY
    Thank you for your reply, both desktop PC's had power, but were unable to boot up with no signals to peripheral devices (monitor, keyboard, mouse) if the problem was purely software, I can't understand why BT technical help did not ask the customer to download from McAfee site software removal tool before attempting to install BT NetProtect Plus, especially if the customer had been a previous customer of McAfee, maybe wise after the event, on the day the technician took control of my desktops, it was evident that system files were being accessed and deleted and following this both computers failed to restart as unable to boot up. I asked a local computer technician to look at both PC's and one is now up and running again with BT NetProtect Plus installed and working, the other desktop continues to fail to boot up, however, the technician accessed the hardrive to allow me to rescue files.
    I have again spoke with BT technical help, I could accept if only one PC failed to boot, but both following intervention from BT technical help remote access is more than just coincidence, but I now understand, BT accepts no responsibility nor offers any solution, compensation for the loss of hundreds of pounds worth of equipment, a warning should be issued to customers that intervention made by BT technical help remote access may result in loss of functioning PC. The only advice available from BT is to continue presenting the non functioning destop to to a PC vendor for repair at my cost, like I said in previous e-mails I would rather replace the desktop as continual repair costs would exceed the cost of a replacement desktop and would resolve the problem at my cost and prevent any further frustration dealing with BT, happy to close the complaint now as unresolved.

  • BT NetProtect Plus Firewall Setting Problem

    I have just downloaded the new BT NetProtect Plus.  In checking it out I find the Firewall settings for Attack Detection are all set to No.  These settings can be edited to yes but McAfee recommends that the No settings  are not changed.  Having also installed NetProtect on my laptop, I also find the settings are set to No.  On both computers the summary, with the big green tick, says my computers are secure and no action is required.  How can they be if the aforementioned No settings remain at No?  I tried McAfee for an answer but they wanted £28 for the privilege.  To my mind it's a BT problem as it has got their name on the tin - as I pay a monthly subscription BT should provide an answer.   BT India help did not know the reason for the No settings.
