Program update 7.0.1426

[bob3160]

Ok, I had to use F5 to access my safemode option screen, then once in there press F8 to boot into safe mode.
I used the utility to remove old v7 and installed 426.

This should get you into Safe Mode:

Thx Bob, but out of curiosity, is it a certainty that I have a virus preventing me from accessing safemode via F8?.....I mean, why would a virus block F8, but not F5 which then leads to F8 and safemode...?

[Doug Henry9]

I guess you are on a laptop or some proprietary system that used different function keys to interrupt the boot and select safe mode. So long as it is now working.

On a desktop with logitech usb KB and W7 Hpre OEM version...maybe cause it's OEM...
Thx for your help...much love.

The answer to your question is NO I offered the repair program so that if the reason for not being able to get to Safe Mode is virus related,
that program should repair your inability to get there.

This update (7.0.1426) is something hurry, so some strings are not translated. In next program update they will be translated.

I installed Avast! Free Antivirus 7.0.1426 On Windows 7 (64-Bit) And I can't update the virus database, the update hangs on "Initializing" ... Is there some kind of fix I can use?

Found saytik where xxx_video_HHHH.avi banner is updated every day or even every half day, so I have it every time to send to the lab, this garbage is already engaged in the fifth day, fortunately banners added to the database on the trail. day, but not always!

The question is, in virusskane always the first to determine such as anti-virus software: F-Secure, G Data and Bit Defender. They have some sort of special protection for them automatically on the first code or have the same craftsmen like me, they just stupidly sent to the lab? Maybe there is some initial code in the banner to its anti-virus once discovered would, without any shipments to the laboratory? Just a couple of changes in the banner of kilobytes and antivirus have not see him. Explain how please. On what basis are working F-Secure, G Data and Bit Defender?
