OK Thanks Andrew. Great to get you sorted out.
Not a genius, ;D but getting their.

Sounds like i need to ask for help too.
But i wont, steal the thread. But my computer is shot, and needs help.
Brilliant news you are sorted Andrew.

[Andrew Burgess]

Anglerpaul, it don't really bother me at all if you did steal the thread, (I will be happy ) the point is - that if you need help on the computer, just fire away mate.

I am sure some of us might able to help you out.

Hi
And thanks mate.
I use spybot search and destroy and it keeps picking up this one below:
windows security center antivirus override.
I remove it, then when i reboot the computer it comes back again!

How can i remove this little devil permanently?

Any info appreciated!

Regards,
Paul

Right Anglerpaul try this.

If you do not use the Windows Firewall or ICS --
1/ You can go into: Start|Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Services|
2/ Find this service --> Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing(ICS)
3/ Right-click & select properties -
4/ On General Screen set --> Startup Type: Manual -
5/ Click --> Stop <-- to stop the Service
6/ Verify Service Status: Stopped

SpyBot should be happy again.

If you are comfortable with editing the registry - you can make turn off the security center overide of your AV.
[std disclainer - register mis-edits can make system unuseable - get a registry backup!!!]
But dont blame me if you get it wrong. Only do this if your happy, working in registry.
-------------------------------------

This may help -- reset the Regisry setting for AV overide.

dword: 0= No; 1=Yes

Windows Security Center.AntiVirusOverride: Settings (Registry change, fixed)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusOverride!=dword:0

Windows Security Center.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, fixed)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:1

Windows Security Center.FirewallDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, fixed)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\FirewallDisableNotify!=dword:0

Once reset & Spybot finds no other errors, immunise & you should be ok.

Again mate try the first fix, should sort you out.

[anglerpaul]

It worked Carpy.
I removed spybot, and started the firewall back up.
Sorry its a late reply, took me some time to do.
Waited for my son to do it this weekend. again
