Installed NIS 2010 last week, the Laptop had been using Avast for last 3 months and has had some periods of running with Expired NIS 2009, its not my Laptop im just trying to get it running. Anyhow its been running fine for the last week and last night something caused it to restart, when i logged back in My Security Center said that Virus protection was not found, and Malware Defense chirped in saying it could help, searched out Malware Defense in Program Files and Deleted, ran a search on it and no files were found, but it still pops up, thing is i think something else is also causing trouble as the internet connection is blocked, it tells me im connected but wont connect, so even if i tried to download Malware Defense it wouldnt let me?????? Also on login 3 Icons had appeared youporn and two others same thing but forgotten name of them, again pointless as something is blocking connection. I keep getting the fake warning that this and that virus has been detected and do i want to enable connection Spybot is blocked and wont open, as is NIS 2010 which goes to One Click Support and informs me i have internet connection problems, it attepms to Release and Renew IP setting but nothing changes.
Using a Toshiba Satellite Pro M50 Laptop on Windows XP, unsure what other info you may need to help
