Scheduling Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware scans with Internet Security Suite

When I installed Verizon Internet Security Suite, the scan schedule for Anti-Virus was set to a default time of: Weekly at 12:00 am on Saturday. The Anti-Spyware scan was default scheduled weekly at 12:00 am on Sunday.
I don't want the scans done at this time. So I rescheduled them to run at 5:00 am instead of 12:00 on each day. 
This didn't work. Even though when I look at the schedules for those programs, it shows the times I put in. But it still ignores the times I scheduled and always starts up both programs at 12:00. This is very inconvenient for me. How do you debug this?

I know what you mean. I have the same problem, here it is 6:31 am and I am awake and on my pc when all of a sudden verizon's virus scan pops up and starts it's scan. I scheduled that for 12:01 am. Plus not to mention the other day it said I have a virus but it couldn't repair it so it quaranteed it, then when I clicked on find out more information about this virus the page said it will be available soon. I did a search of the virus on radialpoints website and it couldn't tell me the virus either and then I found out through google that is actually a trojan and wrote a bunch of keys to the registry but the website never said what to do about it, whether to delete those keys or not.
I don't like to delete registry keys unless I am sure.
I used to have Norton installed and its virus scan used to do some odd things to. Like forget! Symantec said it was windows fault because it uses task scheduler.
I am seriously thinking about dumping this verizon suite if they don't fix it real soon and get their website's up and running!!!

  • Stopping anti-virus and anti-malware scans from scanning diasabled user files?

    Using Windows Server 2008
    If I only disable old user profiles, does anti-virus and anti-malware still scan their profiles and all files contained there within? Is this something that will happen regardless of the old users status and during a "whole computer" scan?
    And if so, are computer resources still being used for these old profiles?
    Thanks!

    Hi LaEmperor,
    From my experience with different AV softwares, I can say that they continue scanning them as part of the filesystem, despite of being disabled.
    I am not sure about your question for the resources, but I´ll give two shots:
    1. From the system perspective: basically affects the space that the files from that profile are using. The leave also some information on the Registry hive, on .USERS\ but unless it is a large numbre, I will not be concerned.
    2. From the Antivirus perpective: Well, as usual, Disk I/O, RAM, CPU, etc...; so as much as disabled profiles, as much they will add to the usual amount of resource comsumption.
    Hope you find this informative.

  • Do I need virgin PCguard anti virus and firewall switched on with Firefox

    Do I need to have Virgin media PCguard anti virus and firewall switched on when browsing with Firefox?

    The person who told you that you do not need another security program was wrong, Firefox is just a web browser.
    There are free anti-virus programs available if you do not want to renew Norton. Some examples are:
    * Microsoft Security Essentials - http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials
    * Avast - http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  • Can anyone recommend a GOOD and RELIABLE anti-virus and anti-spyware ?

    I am looking for virus protection (even though I know I am safe, in theory) and anti-spyware software. Can anyone recommend anything that is really good? It doesn't have to be an all-in-one thing, if any of you can recommend two different applications that'll be alright

    Greetings,
    Like the OP states ClamX and MacScan, along with Integos stuff is out there. ClamX is free, but the other stuff costs.
    I have tested the full versions, as we have purchased them all, and I have a machine unprotected buy a corporate firewall, on a private network/internet access, and I have yet to find a virus or malware in my day to day use. I imaging there are some around, I just haven't seen any legitimate ones.
    Mac Scan can detect tracking cookies, and everyone can collect those unless you block all cookies and stuff.
    It's up to you, but if I were you and you had reason to be concerned, I'd look at Intego's "Internet Security Barrier" as it has it all in one package, but like all of these kinds of packages, you will take a bit of a performance hit.
    My main machine at work had ClamX, and Little Snitch, and that is all, at home I have Little Snitch and I have never been hit - maybe someday, but not any time soon. The test machine has Intego's stuff on it currently.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

    Nick,
    Check Xeams for Anti-spam. It also works with ClamAV anti-virus to prevent viruses from reaching your Exchange. By using Xeams you will get a lot more insight about the emails going in and out of your Exchange system.

  • Any protection required iPad like Internet security anti virus, Any protection required iPad like Internet security anti virus

    I have iPad 4 but I feel my iPad becomes slower and sometimes it takes time to open a program  I wounded if iPad can be affected by virus and other kind of spyware when I I use the internet and if any which software that I should use to protected my iPad and keeps it work fast

    No, there is nt effective antimalware apps for iOS, and you don't need it. The sandboxed structure of the iOS and the fact that you can't install anything on it except via the App store protects it as well as any anti virus sofware could.
    A couple of things you can do:
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
    Check the amount of storage that is currently available on the iPad (Settings app > General > Usage. If you are getting close to the limit (say a GB or less), try deleting some content and freeing up space.
    Make sure you are running the most current version of iOS 7.0.6 as of this writing).

  • DoI need anti virus or adware/spyware remover for a MacBook Pro

    Long time PC user, resently purchased a mac book pro & Loving everything about it.
    just curiouse about keeping system clean,
    Do I need anti virus or adware/spyware remover, for a MacBook Pro

    You don't need jack diddly squat.
    But if you have PC brethren and don't want to be a typhoid mary, then download the free ClamXav and scan with that.
    First account on a Mac is a admin, it's best to run as a Standard user by creating another admin user, loggin into it and turning your first user to a Standard user. Everything works just the same, it's more secure than normal though as Mac's are being attacked, not as much as PC's.
    Just a bit more protection, check your Software Updates once in awhile and you should be fine, except for Lion issues and we cant' help those as it's a new OS.
    If your on Snow Leopard then stay there for another 6 months at least until the complaints go away here about Lion.

  • Do I need to have any type of anti-virus or malware, spyware protection for my Macbook Pro?

    My Macbook is a year old. When I bought it, I was told by several people that I would not need any type of anti-virus software or anything to protect my computer because Mac did not get infected that often. However, I have had people today tell me that I do need protection for my computer. My Mac runs about as good as the day I got it, but I really don't want anything to happen to it. If I need to get an anti-virus, or malware/spyware software, what programs would y'all recomend? I am just looking for information. Thanks!

    1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    If you find this comment too long or too technical, read only sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    For the reasons given above, App Store products, and other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is presumably effective against known attacks, but maybe not against unknown attacks. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. XProtect, Gatekeeper, and MRT reduce the risk of malware attack, but they're not absolute protection. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
    That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source, or that does something inherently untrustworthy. How do you know what is trustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
    Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
    Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily harmful.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
    Even signed applications, no matter what the source, should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
    Follow the above guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
    7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. Any database of known threats is always going to be out of date. Most of the danger is from unknown threats. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software  ClamXav— nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
    Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
    In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    8. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
    A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
    ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
    ClamXav may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use ClamXav unless a network administrator requires you to run an anti-virus application.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user you don't have to live in fear that your computer is going to be infected every time you install an application, read email, or visit a web page. But neither should you have the false idea that you will always be safe, no matter what you do. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • Anti-Virus and Firewall Software for Windows (on my Intel Mac)?

    Hello,
    I have just ordered my first Intel Mac, as well as my first copy of Windows XP. How ironic that I would be asking this on the Apple Discussions site, but what Windows anti-virus and firewall software is recommended? I want to be well protected on the Windows side.

    Templeton,
    It is embarrassing enough that I am installing a copy of Windoze on my brand new Mac, not to mention voluntarily opening myself up to a host of viruses, spyware, and other PC garbage. If I can’t trust another Mac user for help here, then who can I trust?
    Thanks for your mere comment. Now, anyone else with actual knowledge to share?

    5. Java on the network (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related) is a weak point in the security of any operating system. If a Java web plugin is not installed, don't install one unless you really need it. If it is installed, you should disable it (not JavaScript) in your web browsers. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those obsolete versions has known security flaws that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. The flaws will never be fixed. Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java can never be fully trusted, even if no vulnerabilities are publicly known at the moment.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.

  • Anti-spam and anti-virus suggestions

    I would like to ask and get some feedback about the free anti-spam and anti-virus tools which integrate with the Java Messaging System from Sun. I would also like to express my concern with SpamAssassin since I suspect it uses too much system resources. But, anyway, if it blocks the spam with a higher percentage compared to other solution(s), then I would forget about how much resource it requires as long as it is in reasonable amounts.
    Please send me your comments,
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Following on from what Jay said, SpamAssassin can indeed use a lot of resources if badly managed. This includes using large numbers of rulesets especially if they add very little to the overall score, and simpler things such as not using a local DNS cache. SpamAssassin if tuned well and if your system has a reasonable amount of RAM (2GB or more) can work just fine.
    For example I ran x86 dual-CPU systems (less powerful then say an x4200) which were able to comfortably Spam (SpamAssassin) and Virus (Sophos Anti-virus) process 100-150K emails/day.
    At the end of the day you get what you pay for. I tried out the Sophos Anti-Spam/Virus solution (Puremessage which has its own messaging server channel from memory) and found it to be very competent & slightly more efficient then SpamAssassin. In this case the cost was the limiting factor.
    Regards,
    Shane.

  • Any good anti-rootkit and anti-keylogger for OSX ?

    Hi,
    Is there any reliable anti-rootkit and anti-keylogger software for OSX ?
    I don't mind if its an all-in-one suite with anti-virus, I'm just less conceren about viruses so it's doesn't matter to me too much.
    Many thanks!

    First, there's no software out there that can reliably detect all possible keyloggers. There are legit keyloggers that won't be detected by everything, for example. If you think that someone malicious has had access to your computer, either physical access or through a back door installed through some other method, then the only reliable response is to erase the hard drive and then reinstall the system and all applications from scratch.
    In addition, the term "rootkit" (when used correctly) is a very specific kind of malware that is installed to give the hacker escalated root-level access to the computer. In modern single-user systems, this is not particularly meaningful, for a variety of reasons. Fearing rootkits and not more general malware is kind of like going to Africa and being on your guard against lions, but not against hyenas, hippos, elephants, leopards, poisonous snakes, etc.
    What is the specific issue you're trying to solve? If it's just a general concern about protecting yourself against malware, see:

    The best defense for keeping your Mac secure is YOU.  Honestly, I will not tell you to not get software but YOU are the best way to stay safe. I myself have never used any software on my personal computers personally.
    rules to remember:
    Don't:
    Open any e-mails from an unknown sender
    Open any e-mails that have attachments unless that person is in your contacts...BUT, this one can be tricky as well.  If one of your contacts gets infected, their computer could send an email (with an attachment) to everyone in their contact list.  This is a trick to get you to open the attachment because you know the sender.  So always check for really generic subject lines that sound fake, call them if you are not sure.
    Click on any of those intrusive ads on websites.
    Careful downloading software from the Internet that you are not sure about.  Always do your research.
    if you do decide to get software, I can safely say DO NOT GET MACKEEPER.  STAY AWAY.  I have heard only horror stories about this software. 
    Keep your Network safe, make sure if youuse an open WiFi connection to LOCK it.
