Error meanings

Hello,

Is there a list of what some of these different ‘Errors’ mean/stand for? I can’t remember if this was from my last scan or from the log when I was reviewing it b4 I deleted it… I’ve been finding these on and off for months, just never got around to joining up and asking about it ::slight_smile:

Note: Already found out from the forum what that “Decompression Bomb” is ;D

Thank you,
Sherri

error (00000005) == ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED, tlntsvr.exe (telnet component) was in use and avast! wasn’t able to open the file for reading

error (00000003) == ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND, not sure what it was caused by…

Hello PK
and thank you for the reply ;D

I was looking over the link with the meanings of those error’s and actually that list isn’t the same number sequencing as the errors I posted ??? Is there a different list that I could refer to where you got those definations?

Oh and on that Telenet?
I have that disabled in my “Services.msc” so I don’t understand why that would mean it’s in-use?? Gosh, now im really concerned :o

Any advice?
Sincerely,
Sherri

:slight_smile: Hi SherriBabee :

  To "configure" your "Services", I hope you read the info 
  at www.tweakhound.com/xp/xptweaks/supertweaks6.htm

The difference in the errors, the ones you gave are windows errors and the link is for avast’s internal program error numbers.

I use a little program that gives info on windows errors ‘Error Messages for Windows’ http://www.gregorybraun.com/MSWinErr.html, just input the error number if it is a windows one it will return the description

Hi Spiritsongs,

Not familiar with that one, but I have a backup copy of BlackViper’s that I use…

Thank you tho ;D

Hi DavidR,

They might well be in the avast log but that is just restating/reusing the error number given which is a windows one. This is effectively because it is using the windows file system to find and then access/scan the files.

I can’t remember where/when I found the windows error utility but very handy.

:slight_smile: Hi SherriBabee :

I was starting to use Black Viper's "Safe" settings until I
ran across a post on another forum that talked about the
Background Intelligent Transfer Service needing to be used
to get Win Updates, which Black Viper says can "disable"' in
the "Safe" category; also Black Viper recommends "disable"
for "System Restore Service"; however, when I did this, 
then tried to run my Registry cleaner, it would not & got a
"Message box" that my System Restore Service was
disabled. Changed back to "Manual" & it ran.
The tweakhound "guide" has more explanations than
Black Viper's; where they disagree I choose .

Tks Spiritsongs … I know he has some that are questionable, but I have followed up in other forums as well and don’t consider his ‘tweaks’ lets say, as ‘God’, moreso I use as a guide only… I found some programs I run tend to need services that I have shutdown, so those I put in manual and start on an ‘as-need’ basis…

But thanks for that link to TweakHound, i’ll definately look it over more closely :slight_smile:

Rgds,
Sherri
