Title: Computer won't start up on regular mode because of advast bad image?
Post by: tonyantonio on October 21, 2012, 04:58:12 PM
My computer only works on safe mode now. And if I try to enter regular, I get that avast has a bad image

What was I doing last night?

I used malwarbyte ccleaner for the first time. I used ccleaner to delete some services and to clean up stuff.

Help :(

Security ensitals, malwarbytze, avast, not sure about ccleaner as a virus protecter

Seems your problems may have started when you installed avast and Security Essentials on the same system together, you can only have one AV so you need to uninstall MSE for starters then try repairing avast and if that doesnt work a complete clean install of avast maybe neccessary.

CCleaner is not a virus program.....it just remove crap files (CCleaner = Crap Cleaner)

so you have avast and security essentials....never install multiple antivirus as this will slow down your machine, give you mysterious windows errors, give you false detections

so you have to uninstall one and then run the removal tool to clear any leftover files that may conflict

you find the removal tools here  http://singularlabs.com/uninstallers/security-software/


you can have avast and malwarebytes......or MSE and malwarebytes
