Virus Protection

I'd Suggest You Better Skip The Idea of Using Those Security Suites. Better Use Some Free To Use Yet HIghly Rated For VIrus Protection Engines. Here's What I Suggest Top Three...


1. Avira AntiVir Personal Classic Edition
2. Avast! Home Edition
3. AVG Free

Avira Is Found To Trigger Less False Alarms Than Anyother AV (Even Paid Don't Have That Kind'a Accuracy), & Is Much Better Than some of The Paid Ones. Next Is Avast!, For It's Individual Scanner Protection & It's Unique VRDB (Virus Recovery Database) Feature.

If You're Looking For Firewall Protection Then Again, The Free Stuff Come To The Rescue.


1. ZoneAlarm Free
2. Comodo Firewall Pro.
3. PC Tools Firewall

We All Know How Good ZA Firewall Can Be..! Comodo Has Passed All The Leak Test That Can Be Serious For Your System Security. PC Tools Is Not New To The Scene Here, Still Has Very Good Firewall With Less Questions Asked, Recomended For NewBie.

 

Virus?

Kill.exe is not realy a virus. It's a windows process.

The virus that affects Kill.exe is the ocxdll.exe Virus, that normally affects Windows NT/2000, and sometimes XP if regular uypdates are not maintained. Google that one to find the solution to your problem. OCXDLL.EXE is a self-extracting executable containing 17 files.

To verify this is the right virus, check the Task manager looking for taskmngr.exe in the process window- (the other windows should have all hidden) taskmgr.exe is the REAL task manager.

OPen up the start menu select "run" and type in MRT click OK - this will run the Windows Maliciouse Remover Tool and should kill the virus. More info available at Microsofr.com.

 

Cannot turn on Virus protection

My virus protection cannot be turned on after the latest update of Windows. There is notice about unexpected error everytime I try to restart Virus protection (In the security center, it said that threat service has stopped and I need to restart). I have
tried many methods suggested in the Internet but none work. And I dont install any other virus-protection progam like Norton or Mcaffe.
