Hello dear members,
When I installed my computer I found the standard Windows firewall in Vista
premium. I trusted this and did not want to slow down the system by adding an
other firewall. Besides, this policy also was discouraged by the helpfiles
that came with the system. Virusprotection was not done by the system, so
advisable to install a virusprotection tool. I read a lot on the net on that
item and finally installed Avast antivirus.
So far so good. Had no troubles from oktober 07 till a week ago. Than I
decided to destall Avast and to install One Live one care. The critics did
not take me to this. But I think it is a good policy to have the safety
issues in the same hand as the system resources are. I take another step and
expect the safety cause covered in the system itself. Sell a new car without
safety features!
I installed the One care, I did want to give it my support, I did not expect
it to be bad at all.
Microsoft also gave me a free trial for 90 days, fair enough, join the army
than. Quite a difference in feel, that is because Avast alway gave me a kind
of messenger report with a sliding window, which told me that an other part
of the virus library was loded online, faithfully from as soon as I came on
the internet. Beside of that it did its job silently, without a lot of noise.
That is what we expect computers to do and specially tasks on it, dedicated
to the system.
Until a couple of days ago, I could not install the Adobe flashplayer. The
loading routine caused the firewall problems, or the other way around. To be
short on this, I investigated tasks, processes and services. Also
investigated the ActiveX elements in the tasktray on the ie-browser. Also
came on the installed program list on the controlpanel.
The One Care green ball suits me, but I had expected deleted programs, realy
being deleted from now, why does Vista still leave anything there in that
list, yes it is a safety issue. Only when program does what it is asked to
do, it will be trustfull, can you come around another way?
Thought I realy had destalled the Itune software, when I found not, I could
not trust the window tool and did some deleting and stopping on services and
programs involved with those programs.
It did not work. Now there still are tasks that are scheduled and updates
are done, quite a world behind my computerscreen and keyboard that I thought
was long gone. How can this be under One Care? Why isn't this cleaning more
drasticly done. Why is this? I found this bonjour program and learned a bit
of what it stands for, it might be no virus but it is quite stubburn to get
lost. I deleted it several times, it still is there!
Thought I only installed a player, seems to be part of a strategy to intrude
on my computer and to have control over it. I think safety has a lot to do
with policy. Do the certification, link back to threads and threadrates on a
list, then automate to hit back on trespassing and hacking.
I came upon the site ProcessScanner and scanned my files, after I had
scanned it with the scanning tool that comes with One Care. One Care reported
all fine. ProcessScanner gave me an allert on
wininit.exe. It thougt me in its library and with me millions others, that
it is a trojan horse, an evil virus. ProcesScanner comes under label Uniblue,
it shows there to be a Microsoft certified partner (?)
So I again, I just scanned this file by One Care. No warnings whatsoever!
I roled back the system (fine feature!), but wininit.exe is still there.
There are some tools
offered on that Microsoft goldcertifed board, are they to be trusted. I read
a lot of registry cleaning, it is offered there aswell, do you advise me to
use it? I like the backup and restore part, but should that be this noisy. It
is easy and should be integrated in the maintenance part. Why is this not?
Enough for today, maby also for tomorrow.
Questions:
Does One Care do any virus scanning?
Does it have a frequent update on the virus library? How?
Is One Care right and isn't wininit.exe a trojan horse?
How come I cannot delete wininit.exe? I know, by the accounts and ownership
on the file, but who shuts me outoff permission on that file, though I have
administrator rights? Who is cheating here?
Should I destall One Care and go back to just the common firewall with a
scanner like Avast?
Does the maker of One care still do what is good for the product and the
customers?
