Ad virus connected to the Firefox files?

This virus attacked me last time and the only solution was to restore my computer to factory conditions. Almost a year after I restarted my computer, the virus attacks again.

The virus infects my Firefox browser by putting ads everywhere. If I click on the place that seems empty, I'm redirected and sent to some bogus site. They even changed the text in links and these texts have little pop ups. I went if a video downloaded and launched Malwarebytes, CCleaner, ComboFix and ultimately got an Adblock Plus plugin. All these were very helpful with other viruses but the Firefox infecting a lived again everything. I tried to search in the program files for all files that may seem bad and remove some that resembled advertisements of virus, but nothing has changed. In addition, I could have jumped on the file that infects Firefox but I aimed for files with funny names. I did the 'Control Panel, programs, uninstall"but can't find the"name"(the name of the virus will be shown on the pictures). I tried all the ways to get rid of a virus.

I tried to get help on a forum, but got recommendations for programs I already have (Malwarebytes was the most common request and I have already and he ran). Even programs that I did not like Eset, I am sure that it will be useless to me. The only thing I learned from this forum is that nobody knew what I was dealing with and backup and restores are my only solution.
I want to know what this virus is, instead of having to back up and restore all the time. And I don't want to continue to get suggestions for other programs.
The photos must be donate death for anyone who knows really what it is. Images show ads by "name", but the last time I had this virus, the announcement has not called 'name' before, so it must be the type of virus to change his name? I do not know.. But I went on a site (I won't post his name, but the web address looks trustworthy) who told me how to uninstall 'name '. I don't know that it's the only site that actually meet the virus as 'name' because google-ing 'ad virus name' does not help. But the site told me to 'Control Panel, programs, Look for name, uninstall. The only problem was that I couldn't find 'name '. I even tried to uninstall programs that could be 'name '. So the common solution for this kind of thing is downloading viruses such as Malwarebytes protections or uninstall programs. But none of these things do not work

I don't know why the picture does not, but I have three. I use Puush which is a screenshot system. If you do not click on the links, I'll try my best to explain what the picture shows:

http://PUU.sh/h0sbn/c313188901.PNG On the bottom of the ad, it says "Ad by name".
http://PUU.sh/h0szu/c4f1316f0c.jpg My system puush is spammed pub left and right with "name".
http://PUU.sh/h0sxb/e16477127d.jpg This is what I saw last time, except the virus was not called 'name' before. The gift for this one is green, black and white with three boxes. A box especially gave me an option to disable or 'subtract', 'name '. I disabled it and to my great disappointment, nothing has changed.

If you do not click the links, the farm I could get to my image is that of google search. Basically it's the one that says "Ad by name" but different https://www.google.com/search?q=ad+virus&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=WWUjVY3tBsnHsAWCiIHIAg&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAg&biw=1024&bih=631#imgdii=_&imgrc=NzAY_yMxQe5MEM%253A%3BvGyGVfB78cU6hM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252F4.bp.blogspot.com%252F-rz3Lk6ksy98%252FVBiIkBtOlSI%252FAAAAAAAAHYU%252FM3A4YjAH81o%252Fs1600%252Fastro_arcade_ad.png%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fdeletemalware.blogspot.com%252F2014%252F09%252Fremove-astro-arcade-ads-virus-removal.html%3B378%3B285

Yes, you can't reason with malware like this... or trusting its buttons...

When you reinstalled, you probably did not remove the Firefox program folder, then I suggest to try it this way:

Clean reinstall it

We use this name, but it is not about the deletion of your settings, it comes to ensure that program files are-own and contain no alien code files. As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

(1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 37.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ of a great location if you have an older one. (Scroll down your preferred language).

(2) close Firefox (if applicable).

(3) to rename the program folder

(Windows 64-bit folder names)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

TO

C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox

(Windows 32-bit folder names)

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

TO

C:\Program Files\OldFirefox

(4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

Any difference?

Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  • How to connect to the firefox sync through sync key?

    Hello.
    Prior to re - install Windows, I saved my Firefox Sync key.
    After installing windows, I can't to access my firefox sync account for my favorites! It is said: unknown account, register!
    But I have a KEY, I need my favorites back!

    Help me, please, to the recovery of my favorites back!
    Thank you.

    You must use a very old version of Firefox if this version has always used a separate key for synchronization.
    29 Firefox and later no longer use a specific key synchronization, but derive the key to the synchronization of the password of the Firefox account that you use to sign in to this account.

    You need a version of Firefox 28 to connect to an old account of synchronization that uses the key of the synchronization.

    The name of the password file is not random.
    The SID is case-sensitive, and the UNIX password file has No extension!
    So if we're not the file name, the passwordfile will not be used.
    This file name looks bad, at least the .ora bit should be removed.

  • Target of hyperlink connects since the Outlook file in the Oracle database mail

    Greetings.
    Lack of permissions, I can't create text file on the UNIX server.
    This will not be changed.
    I saved the file in the Oracle 11 g database.

    I want to send e-mail to PL/SQL with attached file.
    No UNIX don't scripts at all.

    It's a big file.
    Thought has crossed my mind.

    Can I send e-mail to PL/SQL with a hyperlink that connects to the file that is stored in the Oracle database?
    The target of the link is a file stored in the Oracle database.

    Did anyone done this before?

    Let me know your ideas.

    Thank you.

    Can be done using UTL_SMTP or more recent UTL_MAIL.

    Attachments to emails are just that - the content of the file is attached to the body of the mail. Mail arrives at its destination, the mail reader recognizes the attachment and allows it to be saved to disk (or open/read).

    It's standard stuff... See MIME for more details on how to build a body of message with attachments.

    Can I send e-mail to PL/SQL with a hyperlink that connects to the file that is stored in the Oracle database?

    Yes. You need a web server that has been configured with Oracle "+ access +"-the default is using the Apache Oracle server which includes a module called mod_plsql. This module allows the web browser to use a URL that refers to a procedure from PL/SQL web enabled in a specific database schema - and pass parameters (as part of the URL query string) to the proceedings.

    You can also use Oracle EPG (Extended procedure gateway according to me, is what does the acronym). This provides a web server directly within the Oracle instance using Oracle XDB (integrated database of XML). It also has a module of type mod_plsql which provides that a web interface (via http) enabled PL/SQL procedures.

    This procedure can be a procedure "+ document download. Oracle provides a system procedure called WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file ()+ you can use inside this active web PL/SQL procedure. This will return the contents of the blob/clob as a 'file' in the web browser.

    For example, a download web-enabled simplistic procedure will look something like this:

    create or replace procedure downloadFile( fileName varchar2 ) is
            b       blob;
            mimeType varchar2(50);
    begin
            select
                file_content, mime_type  into b, mimeType
            from my_documents where file_name = fileName;
    
            OWA_UTIL.mime_header( mimeType, false );
            HTP.p('Content-Length: ' || DBMS_LOB.getlength(b));
            OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
            WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file( b );
    end;
    

    The URL will look like this:

    http://my-webserver.my-domain.com:7777/pls/ora/scott.downloadfile?filename=somefile.doc
    

    where:
    Scott.DownloadFile = name of the PL/SQL procedure
    filename = somefile.doc = name values of the parameter to pass to the procedure

    I can solve this problem?

    Sorry mate but to be honest I don't know what you're talking about.

    If there is some kind of problem in the system, I recommend you connect by using the 'safe Mode' (while applying power, press F8 → and then choose: safe mode)

    Run the system in Mode without failure, you would be able to access the files on the system, but also of other personal data...

    so far, your main problem is flash player, you must include the updates Flash Player with all the updates of firefox, oh and updated player get. It's your bug I 'think '. If it is not part of the territory firefox let me know. However, will not be broadcast live, I asked them, they had little info. including, you update your browser recently - with no answer to this question, so here I am. I don't know if the flashplayer or everything that has nothing to do with live stream or not, BUT quicktime play or help live streaming right? have no idea and the new mac user. GL

    Adobe Systems, Inc. (owner of Adobe Flash) is not related to Mozilla Org in any way. Mozilla has nothing to do with updates to the software they do not create or owned by another company.

  • TDMS-2503 error recovery - delete the index file does not

    My team worked an acquisition of data on some test machines, and I went today to begin the analysis of the data.  It turns out that two of the TDMS files that we generated cannot be opened in Diadem, Excel or use the controls file TDMS Opend in LabVIEW.  I also tried the repair of PDM tool, with the same result.  The test machine has since been demolished, so there is no way to re - run tests.  Is it possible to have the files was looking to see if all the data can be recovered?

    The files were generated with LabVIEW 2013 SP1.  Attemtped to open them in the same version of LabVIEW, and Diadem 2015, and the importer of excel (excel 2010).

    TDMS files are rather large (> 1 GB), but the tdms_index files that were generated with them were 0kB.  Delete the tdms_index files and re - open the TDMS files had no effect.

    A first look into files (using the primitives to open the binary in LabVIEW), the initial section of the appearance of correct files (readable metadata that matches from a work file in a non-working file).

    He seems to have no notable connection between the two files that will not open, nor the differences in the situation of these files for work files.

    Any help would be greaty appreciated.

    TDMS files are written in chuncks.  At the beginning of each chunck belongs to the human readable semi which is data such as channel names and groups, but contains no actual data.  Then follows the binary data.  The index is intended for all semi human readable file and any data.  This should make the reading of the file easier because the file offset and such are in the index file smaller.

    This being said if you have some sections corrupted in your DDHN file you can always get the data out of it.  There is a code floating around that pull each of the segments and find out what is the problem, then all allows you to get all the data before the wrong section.  This thread talking about it, and a short code displayed around page 3.

  • Class not registered when connecting to the Express Edition


    On my laptop I was able to install the 11.2.0.2.1 XE and Developer SQL 4.0.1.

    TNSNAMES. ORA is properly configured, the SQLPlus and SQL Developer therefore have access to the database, I can create tablespaces, users, tables, etc. SQLDeveloper connects using the TNSNAMES file. ORA.

    XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = PORTLEKU)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    )
    )

    FITTING_SERVICE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = PORTLEKU)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    )
    )

    However, when I run my application program, "Fitting.EXE", it gives me a 'Class not registered' error message when I run Connection.DoConnect.

    The connection string is configured to connect through OLE DB, use Fitting_Service as data source. This is known to work, such that the program works correctly on my desktop PC that is running Oracle 10 g with OLE DB and is used to compile and link the executable file (the laptop has no software development).

    My first thoughts on this problem are:

    (1) I need ODAC on the laptop. But that creates a new home of the Oracle, is not?  So if I set up the TNSNAMES file. ORA in this new folder tree, how it can reach the server database on the same PC, a server that already has a listener configured and known to work as SQLDeveloper can see the database. There is already a TNSNAMES file. ORA files in the tree of files server and properly configured. If I install a new listener, don't he substitute somehow the existing one, may break the connection that uses SQLDeveloper?

    (2) the program Fitting.EXE has been linked on a system with 10 g and the corresponding OLE DB software. Perhaps it is impossible to connect to an 11g database, either by an OLE DB 11g if I install it to ODAC 11.2.0.2.1? I have not yet tried ODAC installation because I was afraid to disturb something that works - see already 1) above.

    As you can probably guess, I'm a little lost on this and need someone to point me in the right direction instead of groping in the dark.

    --

    JF

    Success, finally!

    Take your index on copying tnsnames alias in the client tnsnames file, I installed ODAC112021 and did just that. It works amazingly!

    Problem solved. Thank you.

  • Failed to connect to a PHP file

    I get an error when downloading a site Web of MUSE to my hosting provider. When I publish the Web site, and error appears when FTP is finished and he said: 'failed to connect in the PHP file. Impossible to check if the webserver supports PHP required by forms of the Muse.

    Thank you

    Jim

    Assuming that there no error or warning earlier in the download process, you should check with your hosting provider that PHP is installed and activate your account.

    As part of the download process Muse downloads a small test using FTP .php file, then load it down with HTTP to confirm the file was available and ran PHP code. This criterion is apparently a failure on your hosting.
