[Inactive] Blocked access to Symantec

from yesterday I am not able to get to Symantec - AntiVirus, Anti-Spyware, Endpoint Security, Backup, Storage Solutions page as well as Norton can not be updated, something blocks this

update: it blocks also www.microsoft.com

I tested whole computer now, nothing found

I got nervous today when Norton showed me that during background checking it found some Suspicious.MH690.A file by function AutoProtect

this was in last year FIRST time when Norton showed me something was found during this

SUPERAntiSpyware.com | Remove Malware | Remove Spyware - AntiMalware, AntiSpyware, AntiAdware! and Malwarebytes.org are both BLOCKED

I have to wait till my friend sends me these programs by email

after install of Superantispyware I am not able to start SAFE mode, it stops with black screen and in 4 corners there is Safe Mode but can not do anything... any help???

Run it from normal mode.

I am writing from second computer

I was not able to start even Normal mode, computer always blocked with blue screen and I could not run anything......

so, I am reinstalling everything, WORST scenario came true.......!!!

I was using FULL PAID Norton IS 2009 and SpyBot

Norton subsciption expires in 10 days and I probably do not want to pay Symantec anything more!!! their product did not protect me even when I do not visit any "wrong" pages, do not download any software, etc...

PLEASE, could you advise me WHAT programs are now best solution for my "clean" computer? Does NOT matter if free or paid, just to protect my data...

I'm sorry to hear about your problems.

I suggest...

- Avira free antivirus: Avira AntiVir Personal - FREE Antivirus
- Avast! free antivirus: Download FREE antivirus software - avast! Home Edition

- free Comodo Internet Security (firewall + AV): Firewall and AntiVirus Free Software Download from Comodo
NOTE. During installation, Comodo will also allow you to install AV only, or firewall only, if you prefer to combine one Comodo product with some other product.

If you decide to install Avast, or Avira, make sure, Windows firewall is turned on, or use Comodo firewall..
If you decide to install Comodo Internet Security, or just Comodo firewall, make sure, Windows firewall is turned off.

IMPORTANT! Make sure, you use only ONE antivirus, and ONE firewall.

================================================== =========================
