virus problem

Hi guys im new to wilders security forums, and i am a little computer savy. So if you can help i would appreciate it. i have a problem when i turn on my computer all my files and folders are half working. my virus protector is half working and i scaned for the problem and i came up with this c:\windows\system32\ie4uinit.exe if some one came help on how to take this off or what to do. thanks

 

rob94, welcome to Wilders!

According to this website, ie4uinit.exe is not malware. What is your antivirus? It might be a false positive detection. To be sure, you scan ie4uinit.exe here. Do not post the results of the scan here.

Is your antivirus VirusProtectPro? It is a rogueware. I suggest you uninstall it. Start => Control Panel => Add or remove programs. Scan your PC with the ff:

Avira Antivir PE Classic
SuperAntiSpyware Free
Rogue Remover Free

i have McAfee virus prtector, and it keeps telling me that im not protected. so i scan for updates and it tells me that im updated and stills says im not protected. I also have spyware doctor and ive scanned that and cleaned up spyware but still nothing?

 

Download superantispyware free, update definitions and scan. That might help.

 

Are you using VirusScan 10? I think it is normal for the Mcafee Security Center to bug you with "not being protected" if the antivirus is the only one installed. Just to be sure your PC is clean, see this thread and consult an expert.

Mcafee SuperDat

I used to use Mcafee and it usually always had this Security Center thing that would always bug you that you were not 10 out of 10 protected unless you had installed all the programs on its list. All the software had to be up to date as well if a program was old it would give you lower marks in the Security Center.

 

Hello rob Welcome! I am sure you will get the help needed.I would suggest maybe several on line scans like with eset-nod32 or kasperksy these are very good at detection of virus perhaps your security application may have missed a virus. I believe its always good to double check with another to be sure. you also may want to scan for spyware/adware best regards

 

How is McAfee doing now after a couple of days? Sounds like something is wrong there
