Hello:
On April 25 last I received a call from a company saying that they were aware that I was having problems with my PC (which was true) and that they could help. The name ‘Microsoft’ was mentioned on several occasions and I thought this was a response to error reports sent out by my machine. They took me inside my PC and showed me that I had over 1,200 malware files on it plus over 5,000 warnings, error messages, etc. They then told me that my machine would crash if I didn’t follow their instructions. I therefore continued with the process and, after making 2 payments, they took my machine over remotely and removed, or so they said, all the troublesome files. I must say that my PC began to work far more smoothly following this procedure, but today it is back to whirring away madly in the background and I don’t have a clue what it is doing. What can I do to ensure that they have left nothing on my PC which will cause me problems in the future and/or compromise my security? I did receive an invoice from these people, but the phone number they left me just rings and rings. I would very much appreciate your input on this.
Best regards
Nick Branfield.
Tengo mi PC corporativo infectado con el virus ZeroAccess.dr.gen.d desde hace varias semanas. Las actualizaciones de Virus de McAfee detectan los efectos del virus, los archivos que este troyano va modificando, pero nunca elimina el virus en cuestión. Por ser un PC corporativo no dispongo de derechos para desinstalar el antivirus y descargar otro más efectivo. McAfee sí reconoce algunas mutaciones de este troyano cuando baja de versión, pero parece que tampoco es capaz de eliminarlas. El listado de virus de McAfee tiene esas versiones de mutaciones en su biblioteca, en la web, por lo que me extraña que no sea capaz de eliminarlas. Pongo esto en conocimiento de la comunidad por si alguien es capaz de hacer llegar el mensaje a McAfee. A mí, llegar a esta página sin ser redirigido a “abnow.com” por efectos del troyano, me ha costado un tiempo largo. Gracias.
Microsoft Windows XP closed this program today: McAfee Service Host. I do not believe that I have a computer threat. Should I run it without DEP?
Microsoft advice is: “In this case, the program might not run correctly with DEP turned on and you should see if a DEP-compatible version of the program is available. “
Is there a DEP compatible version of the program that I could install? If so how do I get McAfee Service Host restarted? Many thanks
ME GUSTA
OK

I assume this is a scam! Not picked up by your antivirus software
Every time I open my computer I get a warning ‘computer at risk’ I ALWAYS have to check for updates then it goes away. I spend more time futzing with the F-ing McAfee than I do with anything else. I have automatic updates clicked ON and everything else selected to avoid getting these messages. What do I do? I am really close to uninstalling this garbage….(here we go again, another F-ing error message) security (what a joke) software. I guess if I don’t get a response soon as this is my third attempt to get a response from you folks, I will assume the position and assume that I’ve taken it up the butt and am out hard earned money for a piece of crap software.
I need solutions.
