AntiVirus 2008?

[Rhonda Lea Kirk Fries]

The box came pre-loaded with XP home edition
and BigFix is bundled along with Norton
and a few other things I don't need.

I think if you try to run it, you'll find it's useless.

It wasn't particularly useful when it still had sources from which to
collect fixlets.

 

[Rhonda Lea Kirk Fries]

You're delusional, Butts.

A violation of what, ****tard?

Now that's just scary.

Anyone who runs your ****ed-with and ****ed-up (by you) stolen property
deserves what they get, Buttface.

Ok you dumbass I will spell it out for you. Go here
http://www.advancedprivacyguard.com/ and click on the download link, your
antivirus should detect it Avast does. For testing purposes disable your
antivirus and download the file. MBAM resident detection does not block it.
Click install. MBAM Resident protection does not block it. Run a scan using
MBAM it detects and removes it. Your boss Bruce said in an interview on
Besttechie a few weeks ago that everything MBAM detects during its scans are
also blocked when using the paid version with real-time protection. Now stop
trying to portray me as a liar and fix your product. Below is the log file
done just a few minutes ago.

5. To verify if your PC is up-to-date with vulnerability mitigation, use the services
of Secunia OSI (Secunia Software Inspector).
http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/online/ It will tell you what software has
vulnerabilities and need to be updated/patched to mitigate the exploitation of the
vulnerabilities. This includes Adobe Reader/Acrobat and Java.

Hi David,

I ran the vulnerability scanning as you suggested and everything
checks out ok except JAVA applications. The scan indicates that I
have 4 versions of JAVA on my system:
- Version 6.0.70.6 (the latest according to their web site and it
scans OK).
- Version 6.0.60.6 (recommends to remove via Add/Remove)
- Version 6.0.50.13 (recommends to remove)
- Version 6.0.30.5 (recommend to remove)

Before removing those via Add/Remove, I wanted to check with you on a
couple of things. Might there be programs on my system that require
the older versions to run -or- is the newest version compatible with
programs using previous versions.

I wonder why the JAVA update does not remove the older versions?

I will await your reply prior to removing the older versions.

Thanks
Charliec

Why the hell are you looking through purchase records
trying to find me? That's a violation and it's illegal

In what context would that be illegal? Would it be illegal for a shop owner
to check through their reciepts on an evening??

.. I am going to

to report this violation to the BBB. As far as MBAM goes and what I
said about it all you or anyone has to do is test it for themselves.
All you have to do is right click on any file and it takes 10+
seconds to bring up the menu. Turn off resident protection and it
opens immediately. You can also visit any of the many Antivirus 2008
websites, start the download or just cancel it, your MBAM does
nothing to block it. Avast will and your MBAM does NOT fix the damage
done to the display properties and screen saver tabs caused by
malware nor does it fix a corrupted Winsock. Test it for yourself. My
Remove-it does all that and fixes everything in less then 5 minutes
not hours like you scan takes. Download it here

The guy is trying to identify me for the sole purpose to try and exploit me
on the NG's. Knowing him and his background he will probably steal my credit
card info.

According to the log you posted, we do get it, and clean it up...

Now, to clear something up. MBAM isn't going to catch a file still being
downloaded. we don't hook the same ways as AVAST does. Once the file is
downloaded, with resident protection enabled, it shouldn't be allowed to
execute.

 

[The Real Truth MVP]

Then why did it let it execute.
