    Since you've removed Bit Torrent (insert applause), remove both of those values from the authorized applications list.

    I'm investigating the security center error.

    Please export the following key to txt and post it here.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wscsvc

    Verify also the the Windows Management Instrumentation service is running.

    BTW, Security Center service was set correctly at Automatic (Delayed Start)

    First, export the wscsvc key to a reg file for backup.

    Double click the ObjectName entry then enter the following.

    NT AUTHORITY\LocalService

    Click OK and exit the registry, then reboot. Let me know if there's any change.

    Hi Terry,

    The export of wscsvc appeared to already have this configured properly, but lets check it anyway. Open the Services console and double click the Security Center entry. Select the Log On tab. Under Log On As select This account: then click Browse. Type Local in the Enter the object name to select field then click Check Names. It should come up with Local Service ..... click OK. Hit tab and the Password field should be highlighted. Hit Backspace to blank it, then tab again to the Confirm password field and Backspace to clear it. Click Apply and OK. Restart the computer.

    If it fails to start, double click the registry backup you made of the wscsvc key to merge it. Go back to the Security Center service Log On tab and select Log On As: Local System account (1st option). Click Apply and OK then restart.

    If it still does not start, do the following.

    Highlight and copy the contents of the quote box below to a blank notepad. Save it to the desktop as;

    Filename: check.bat
    Save as type: All Files (*.*)

    Double click check.bat to run it. It will open SC.txt when it completes. Please post it's contents.

    Right click the C:\qoobox folder and Send To>Compressed folder. Please upload the zip file to my submission channel.

    Highlight and copy the contents of the quote box below to a blank notepad. Save it to the desktop as;

    Filename: fix.reg
    Save as type: All Files (*.*)

    Double click fix.reg and allow it to merge with the registry.

    Reboot and let me know if there's any change.


    Bit confused by this value;

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Security Center\Svc\S-1-5-21-607522505-1722128092-4289418495-1000
    EnableNotificationsRef REG_DWORD 0x6


    From what I can see there are 3 options for notification, and altering those change the value to 0x1, 0x2 or 0x3
    What notification option have you selected?

    Hi Dave

    I set the notification to the 3rd option "not to notify me as when the UAC was off the message kept popping up.

    Also please note that I have now removed Norton 360 and downloaded Windows OneCare and installed it hoping that it would resolve the Security centre problem..

    After doing all the above security cent will still not open and run.

    Did you zip and upload the qoobox folder?

    Once again, reset the Log On for security center to Local Service and reboot.

    Click Start>Run and type eventvwr.msc then hit enter. Look for any events pertaining to the security center (maybe under the Windows Logs section??). You can double click any entry and select copy to post the information (or save it to text).

    That's odd ......... both show the service as started. Nothing else in any of the event logs?

    I'm running ComboFix on my test machine right now to see if it affects the security center. If it does, I will compare the before and after registry hives to determine what caused it. It may be quite a while before I get back to you. Meantime, maybe you could zip up portions of the qoobox folder and upload for me? I won't need the hive backups at this time (make sure you don't remove those! ;) ).

    We're looking for errors or entries following the 'started' entries that say the service was stopped. You can, if you want, right click an event area such as Application and select Save Events As, then name it Application and place it where you can find it. Send me the saved events or upload to my submission channel. I will look through them to see if there's anything helpful.
