| Vista X64 Ultimate | Re: Left UAC off...Huge virus problems I have seen NOD32 when I tried it on Vista, generate a false positive for spyware in the EMUSIC download manager, when in fact there is none in it. I had a friend who used Avast up until last year, when he installed Live OneCare, and Live OneCare up and detected a virus that Avast missed entirely. It's incidents like this, as to why I lost faith in a lot of programs. |

| Vista x64 Ultimate | Re: Left UAC off...Huge virus problems deleted wininet.ini in C:\windows. It was for smitfraud-c.bs. I might try Live Onecare. I don't trust Microsoft to do it right either. |

| Vista x64 Ultimate | Re: Left UAC off...Huge virus problems It is starting to act normal again. S&D and Trendmicro did not find anything the last three scans. |

| Vista x64 Ultimate | Re: Left UAC off...Huge virus problems It seemed legitmate. You have to read their methods and determine what they are doing and how they are doing it. I find when they offer unknown software to clean it up is when you need to do a second look. I hope S&D and other apps go 64-bit sooner than later. I would love to see a corporate paid version of this S&D. I am looking at the new HP switches with virus detection modules on them for our corporate network. |
