Auto Protect will not enable

I have NIV 2004 w/ updated subscription. I recently quarantined a Trojan, and ever since then, NIV won’t go back to auto protect, and has also disappeared from the start.ini section under msconfig. And it’s disappeared from the system tray. When on the home page of the software (Norton system works), under Norton Antivirus options, clicking on enable auto protect does not work. It will  not enable under the system status section either. Any help is appreciated.

Also what was the name of the file Norton removed as a Trojan

 

Quads 

Correct.

No, unless you count the one that's included w/ Microsoft called Security Center.... ?

I'm sorry, didn't write that down. But, when I go to the Reports section to view quarantined items, it keeps saying it encountered a problem and wants to send a report to Microsoft. Then a QConsole.exe - Appilcation Error box comes up and says the memory could not be "read"......

Hi

 

1. why a 2004 version and not later??

 

2. Try Running Hijackthis to get a Log,  and Malwarebytes, Install, Update definitions, and run a full Scan.

Ok, the log viewer for todays scan under threat name says two things:

W32.Koobface.A

Trojan Horse

 

 

On the scan I did for 06-08-2009 it says:

Trojan.Fakeavalert

They are the Thread Names not file names, it should list somewhere something like "C:\windows\............................."

Link to Hijackthis is here:   http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/tools/security_tools/hijackthis

 

Link to Malwarebytes is here:  http://www.malwarebytes.org

 

Both are free downloads.  Then follows Quads' instructions.

I just assumed keeping the subscription update was sufficient.

 

Hijackthis is done scanning, and I clicked the 'upload to trendsucure' button...not sure what that does, never used these programs before.

 

Malwarebytes is still scanning but found '17  objects infected'....

(nuff said;)

With Hijackthis you Scan saving a log, "Hijackthis.txt" then you copy and paste the log here

What should I do now? Thanks.

Hi

 

Turn off System Restore

 

Then have Malwarebytes remove what it found.

 

 

Quads 

Um, system restore? where is that? how do I turn that off?

 

Just helping Quads here :smileywink:

 

Steps to turn off Windows System Restore.

Vineeth--

Right click on "My Computer" and go to properties.  You will see a system restore tab at the back left.  Click on that and uncheck the box.  That will delete the system restore points.  Don't re-enable it until your machine is clean.

 

 

Vineeth and I posting at the same time, I see.  Great minds! :smileyvery-happy:

OK, Malware program says all clear. But Auto-protect will still not enable.

What version of Norton System Works are you using?  Are you able to run liveupdate?  Is any other part of the program not working?
