Computer Security & Viruses/windows firewall
Expert: Doug Woodall - 4/14/2007
QuestionQUESTION: I have windows XP and a 4meg broadband connection, I have always had windows firewall enabled. Recently at startup windows firewall logo appears in the tool tray next to the clock saying it is disabled. I enable it again and next time I startup it is off again. Can you help please?
ANSWER: Hi Mike,
Are you using another Firewall at the same time?
What AntiVirus are you using? You may have a Virus.

AnswerHi again Mike.
I think you need a Hijack this session for this.
Head over to Major Geeks Forum,

Register and then dnload Hijack This program.
Run the program and upload the results logs to the Malware Removal section.
They are good people there and will help you.
