Equium A200: Norton can't find any virus but I know it's there

My notebook (Equium A200) was attacked by a virus which made many programmes malfunction. I ran Norton (the free version which came with the laptop) but found nothing. I eventually decided to run product recovery. It took 3 attempts to load properly , but still the system is unstable and slow and I have to restart quite often.
Any sugguestions?

Hi
If you have installed new OS and recovered the notebooks with Toshiba recovery CD then you shouldnt have any viruses or malware on the HDD.
Usually the HDD will be formatted using the recovery CD and all files (data and viruses) should be deleted!
I recommend formatting the whole HDD and to delete all partitions. Then recover the notebook using the Toshiba CD and reinstall the OS.
Finally you should get rid of all the malware and viruses.
If the notebook will run slowly and unstable after this procedure then I dont think that any virus could causes such problems.

  • ITunes is saying it can't find my music when I know it's there...

    So... since I have a computer with only and 80GB hard drive, I bought a 160GB external hard drive to keep all of my iTunes stuff on it and that's even where my iTunes music folder is located.
    I have about 5500 songs and 700 videos.
    But for some reason it started saying it can't find a lot of my music.
    Everything is on my external hard drive and I already checked if I accidentally deleted them. I didn't.
    Some of my items it still has playable.
    I can only listen/watch about 30% of my stuff.
    The first time this happened I was about to call Apple and complain but it started working all the sudden.
    This is the second time and has been a few days.
    Nothing has changed.
    I even reset my iTunes folder to the default location.
    Then I put it back to normal: computer/WD Sync (F:)/iPod music and video.
    The WD Sync is my external hard drive.
    That didn't help.
    I think it might have been because my computer used to call my external hard drive disk (E:), now it's calling it disk (F:).
    And this started happening after updating to iTunes 7.6.2.
    ANY HELP?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I had to change my apple ID and password.  When I want to update my aps. on my I phone 4S I get a box that says I need to sign in to I tunes.  It has my old apple ID and I can't find any way on my phone to change the address it has in the box.  Help!!

    Because of a nasty virus on my computer I had to change my apple ID and password.  When I went to update my apps. on my I phone 4s the box said I need to sign in to I tunes.  The ID it had in the box was my old apple ID and I can't remember the password.  I can't find any where in my phone settings that will let me change my I tunes ID although I have a new apple ID and password that I used to get on this site but I can't change it on my phone.  Please help.
    Thanks

    ChrisJ4203,
    Thank you for the help.  Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID.  I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone.  In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one.  My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID.  Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I  agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

  • How do you delete audiobooks downloaded from Overdrive from the library from my Ipod Nano when I can't find any of the titles under Music in iTunes?

    I've been uploading audiobooks from Overdrive and now that I'm done listening to them I want to delete them. After I hook my Ipod 7th gen up to the comp, it pulls up iTunes and I go to Music but I can't find any of the book titles there. They all show up in my songs group on my iPod. I've been manually managing the songs so I don't get all my husbands stuff on there. I've cruised through the other sections and tried searching the library without any luck. Any advice???

  • I moved all my music from c: drive(because it was full) to an external harddrive and now itunes can't find any of my music. Is there a way to get Itunes to find music on external drive without having to place all the music back onto the c: drive? Thanks

    Hopefully you moved the entire iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder to a new path on your external drive. Copy your iTunes library folder out to the root of the external drive, e.g. X:\iTunes (where X: is your external drive), then move the media folder inside it. Hold down shift as you start iTUnes and keep holding untila asked to choose or create a library. Choose the library at X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. Should all be good.
    Failing that, download and run my FindTracks script and point it at the new location of your media folder.

  • When syncing my iPhone with iTunes, I get the error, "some items did not sync, see itunes for help", but can't find any helps for this in iTunes. Where can I find out what is not syncing?

    When syncing my iPhone with my iPhone, I get a message that 2 items did not sync - use iTunes for help.
    But I can't find any help information in iTunes at all, let alone when items are not syncing.
    How do I figure out what is not syncing?

    Since it seems App related, I'm not sure what to offer you.  I guess the only suggestion I have is for you to reboot your iPad and then try again.  To reboot, hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  You won't lose any settings or data, so it's worth a shot.

  • My Macbook Pro can't find any of my files!

    Hi there,
    Since yesterday, my Mac suddenly can't find any of my files anymore. All the folders are there, but all the files are missing. There are 2 big question marks on the top of the finder window and when I click on them it says that files cannot be found. I have no clue what to do now. The only thing I did before this happened, was deleting my downloads folder, but nothing more. It's weird that all the folders are visible but the content not. Anyone experienced this too? What can one do in a case like this?
    Thank you for any help!
    Raphaela

    Did you run a disk check on it? You might have data corruption. The big question mark on the top of the finder window, I believe is a short cut, not the actual file. Did the actual file move? Did you rename the file? Did you change anything, like your username? Did KIDS use your machine? KIDS can do some silly stuff to your computer without even realizing it. I know this option may sound OFF BASE, but do you have a faulty trackpad, or use excessive hand lotion? (I have seen both of these cause undesired file moves, renames, etc...)
    I would run a disk check, and if available, use Disk Warrior, Drive Genius or similar to rebuild the directory.
    If that does not help, I would search for the file using Spotlight, or a 3rd party app like Find Any File.

  • Macbook PRO can't find ANY Wifi network - only at home

    Hi, i have a very strange problem with my *Macbook Pro*. I have 3 apple computers at home and one pc. On all machines Wifi works fine, except my new alu Macbook Pro. Important note is, when im with my macbook on other place, office, caffe, *Wifi works fine. But when im at home, this macbook simply can't find ANY network, it's blind.* Interesting thing is, all other computers are several years old and WiFi works fine on them. My friend also bought a brand new macbook pro, and this machine also couldn't fine any network at my home, or in other case when it found networks, it couldn't connect and recieve error message "Connection timed out". I noticed there is new Wifi network in our range, is it possible that this network can cause "blindness" on new macbooks?

    *I have to say, I'm really glad you are trying to help guys.*
    Well, router is almost on default settings, SSID is brodcasted and i'm not filtering MAC adresses. I tried changed channels, diffrent types of security or no security, no luck.
    Guys, maybe i wrote it wrong, but this MacBook can't see ANY network. Around me there are 4-6 other networks which I'm able to see from other machines. So *problem is, this Macbook can't seen ANY network - not just mine.* BUT when i'm with this Macbook in office for example, or any other location, Wifi works....
    And one more important thing, this happened suddenly. I was able few months ago to find any WiFi around me with this Macbook. No changes to router, no changes to mac. Problem is somwhere in the middle...try to focus on this: why i'm not able to see any of those cca 6 networks around me. I really think it has to do something with distorted signal and Wifi card used in new macbooks. It's really sick, because all other machines works perfectly (MB 07, MBP 06, PC, iPhone 3g)
    I found a log on the router, and it's happening all the time:

    I am having a new problem in IPhoto'11.  An older camera is importing photos as 4x4 (16 copies to a single image).  In the preview pane the photos are fine (single copy per image).  I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting but the problem repeats.  Earlier I had a successful import from a different camera.
    I can't find any settings to change this. Help!

    Sorry but I do not understand your question
    As to importing iPhoto simply copies the photos to the iPhoto llibrary - no changes of any sort are made
