The new VIPRE Mobile protects your Android device, simultaneously managing and safeguarding your data from any location

At the top of the list knowing what VIPRE stands for are, of course, our security features;

Antivirus: VIPRE Mobile's powerful Antivirus protects your data and privacy from malicious software that can affect your Android device's normal operation - or worse, steal or destroy personal information.

Antispam: Spam is not only annoying, it may contain malicious links. Antispam stops texting spam from hitting your phone, blocking by content or by specific phone numbers.

AppControl?: You may want to show off your phone or maybe a friend needs to make a call. But there are some applications that you just don't want anyone else to run like personal email, or online financial programs. With AppControl, you can control what applications can be run on your Android device with or without permission.

Then there are some of those neat features that you just may not expect, but boy are they useful:

Remote Locate: Ever want to know where your children are. With VIPRE Mobile you can track their Android phone or device on a map from the VIPRE Mobile website. You can even follow its location, showing you where it's been over a period of time.

Remote Wipe: If your device is ever lost or stolen, you can easily remotely wipe its contents so that no one will be able to see your personal information.

Remote Alarm: How many times have you asked "Where did I leave my phone?" Just got to the VIPRE Mobile website and set the remote alarm and your device will emit a very hearable and loud tone.

Backup: Maintain and protect your vital contacts, pictures, videos and other personal items safe on our secure online servers. If your device is ever lost (or you buy a new one and want to transfer your data), just click one button to bring it all back. You can also backup your data to an SD card.

Monitoring: Parents can keep an eye on all your child's phone activities including IM chats, websites visited, and call logs.

Anti-sexting: Block inappropriate texts of a sexual nature from being sent or received. The online world is not always the safest place, keep your children safe.

Anti-bullying: Cyberbullying has become epidemic and can cause potentially painful emotional harassment to children. Our cyberbullying feature looks for abusive bullying language in texts and blocks it.

Parental Controls: From the website you can easily enable or disable web browsing, email, texting, phone calls or texting while driving, or simply set time restrictions when it's appropriate to use these features.

p.s It is really sad to see the state of Android requiring anti-malware applications.

    • Of course the problem was Secure Boot's new certificates. Install media created by the official Media Creation Tool is already signed with a valid certificate from Microsoft, so maybe that certificate isn't "up-to-date" enough for machines with the new ones installed in the UEFI. There's really no other logical explanation.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
