I wanted to start a post for anyone who has any Microsoft related questions... Virus, Hardware, Web browsing, how to tweak and speed things up.. anything...


I am a Senior Microsoft Administrator,
I Do Security on a few Major Banks here in the NYC area.

I do anything with Windows Server all the way down the chain to windows desktops...

Think of this like free Microsoft Support... But i speak English as a first language..

how can i download anti-virus for free?


You really cant put a price on an anti-virus, but if you want a free AV i would recommend you just use a trial and then purchase..

AVG AV is free, but doesn't protect against trojans or flash viruses..
ClamWin is free but does not include real time scans...

Malwarebytes is free, but doesn't scan automatically
if you don't mind scanning manually weekly, this is the best one out there..

It can be found at www.malwarebytes.org

Your best Paid AV is Norton anti-virus 2009/2010
I would recommenced you just buy it, as for the best piece of mind it is the best out their..
Another Great AV is Sophos or Kasperski, however the best is still Norton.

OK...
Simply put you have corruption... this is installer corruption.. either due to a virus in the past at one point, or an installation/uninstallation not properly done..


You can download the fix on microsofts website here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=290301


The instructions and how it works is located here as well...

NOTE: once you download it,
You will want to run the Msicuu.exe program to clean up the issue..

There is an free AVG but you can also upgrade and pay small amount. Norton seems to slow down the computer too much.

Well to start with, it is probably your PC that has the issue, as i am running Norton 2k9 on a P3 600mhz with 256mb of ram, and my machine flys.. no issues..

however, again, AVG will not protect against active Trojan viruses, or variant worms.. Thus i would just not bother with it..
I have tested about 30 different AV's...

The Tops for home..
Norton Antivirus 2009/2010 "360 was to much of a killer of system performance.
Sophos - provided almost as good security as Norton, but it isnt as polished..
Kasperski - Best protection, but a pain in the *** when it comes to configuring it..
Vipre - Strong performance, but not as secure, contains no firewall
Panda - removes virus, trojan, spyware, worms, but doesnt use the normal naming convention, so any manual removals are kinda like guess work.


Best for business
Symantec endpoint 12 - best.. hands downs..
Trend-Micro, Good protection, not great but provides a great reporting service to help track down where the virus came from
Vipre Great, and easy to modify to improve system security

Worst anywhere...
AVG - cant find worms or active trojans
CA-Etrust - no antispyware. firewall, and support is in india
Mcafee running this on an identical machine next to norton 360 it made this machine look like a p2.
Avaira - cant find trojans
Eset - if you thought norton slowed you down try this...

what's your take on NOD 32 - I find it's faster and easier to use, not a fan of Norton.

What are the differences between the academic versions of Windows 7 and the retail versions of windows 7?

When I say academic versions I am referring to those that are currently being sold for $29.99 online to students with valid .edu email addresses.

I would also like to know why Windows XP home was removed from the market but yet it is still being sold by companies like best buy as the OS that is installed on their nettops and netbooks and they do ont offer upgrades to Windows 7 for free when you buy one new after the release of Windows 7.
