    ------------------------------

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
    Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y<-->

    Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  • Remove all contacts from Sharedlist (ContactList) using Api

    I want to delete all the contacts in a sharedlist using api. One method that I discovered is that api rest is to send the ID of all the contacts in the list. When there are more contacts in the list, it takes a lot of time because I have to query the list to get the ID of first contact, then send the request PUT with the ID to delete the contacts. Is there an alternative way to do. If this isn't the case, then what's the number max of ID I can send with destruction of membership options.

    Concerning

    Maury

    Thank you very much zatokar, with your trick that I could remove all contacts from sharedlist in a single request. All we have to do is add sync action as delette in export defination. It will delete all the data on the shared list.

    Sample request is less than

    {

    "name': 'example of export."

    'fields': {}

    "ContactId": "{{Contact.Id}}.

    },

    'syncActions ':

    {

    'destination': "{{ContactList [LIST_ID]}}"

    'action': 'delete '.

    }

    }

  • Why firefox, send emails to my contacts from my e-mail invite them to learn more about Firefox Hello?

    Why firefox, send emails to my contacts from my e-mail invite them to learn more about Firefox Hello?

    Thanks for the clarification on the h which is exactly the test/email that gets sent when you or someone on your pc is to create a conversation of Hello firefox and click the "link email" to invite another person to this conversation. This is something that happens and gets sent after manual steps by the user, so there should not be a reason to worry about this.

    Alternatively, you can try it yourself as described in:

  • How can I remove all contacts from Windows Live Mail.

    Some time ago, I imported all my contacts from Outlook.

    All the imported addresses are duplicated. I want to erase the package effectively and start over.

    Simply select/highlight the first contact - then hold down the SHIFT key, and scroll down the list, and then click the last contact. This should highlight all contacts - then simply press DELETE :)

  • Need to import contacts and messages saved from a Windows Mail email account to another

    Recently changed ISPS but currently have two active accounts.  I would like to import/transfer saved messages and folders, and all contacts from the old account to the new account before the cancellation of the old account.  Both are configured through Windows mail.

    In Windows Mail, messages, folders, and contacts are not related to any specific email account, so remove your old account won't affect.  To check that, I just removed all my Windows Mail accounts on a Windows Vista-based computer that I use for testing.  Messages, folders, and contacts are always there.

    To be safe, you could back up the Windows Mail storage folder before deleting an account.

    Windows Live Mail works differently and requires copy/move messages before deleting an account. Boulder computer Maven

  • How to remove a contact from the drop-down list?

    How to remove a contact when, if forwarding a message, the icon flashes in space 'To' to enter the email address, when you press the first letter of a recipient, it displays a list of previous names/addresses used. This can add to a huge list! Most of the time, it is useful, but how can I shorten the list by removing unwanted contacts in the drop-down list? I got them removed from my address book/contacts (and they are deleted) but even after re-booting the computer, their names still appear in the drop-down list as before. All solutions?

    Instead of typing the first letter of the name of the recipient

    Press on the envelope icon to next to the box where you type the name of the recipient

    Opens the selection of recipients

    Highlight the recipient of choice

    Click on the button to

  • How to remove 'hidden' contacts that do not appear in my contact list in Windows Mail?

    I have a contact in mail. I guess that it was put there by a few emails I inadvertently opened. Anyway when I try to fill in the "to" box on a message that I normally get an AutoComplete list, I put in the first letter of the name, if there are several names starting with the same letter. Now, when I start typing a name with the letter 'L', instead of the 4 names in my contact list that start with 'L', I get the full name of a spammer, let's call him "loser at lumphead dot com. When I went to my list of contacts to remove this stupid I couldn't find this address! So I have 3 questions. Where Mail did in fact raise the file which has the coordinates? How an address to get into the system like that and stand out of the list of contacts? Most important: how to remove a contact 'hidden' like that?

    Thank you for your quick response.
    No, Shawns response suggested to go to the C:\users\myname\contacts file and delete it from there. I had tried before when I tried to locate the list of contacts somewhere outside Mail (sorry I forgot to mention that). But the contacts Vista file did not show this 'hidden contact' either. But further down the page, I found an answer to a similar problem. Gary van in reply to "re: delete contacts autocomplété" gave this link.

    http://www.Winhelponline.com/articles/264/1/utility-to-clear-recently-used-email-addresses-in-Windows-mail.html

    This leads to a file called winmailmru.zip. This tool allowed me to bring up a window showing ALL the contacts which it previously 'hidden', with options to remove them. I selected and deleted. Problem solved.
     
    But I still wonder: where was hiding the contact "hidden"? If it wasn't not in Contacts of Vista directory where Mail was from?  How this winmailmru.exe utility it found? It is also strange that the contact in question seems to have the ability to bypass the selection popup box that shows generally all other contacts beginning with the letter typed and force his way into the 'To' box, excluding the possibility of chooseing another contact. I am happy that my immediate problem is solved, but I wonder if the ability of a person sending a mail to 'hide' a normal contact and overide process in Mail is a security problem or just a nuisence? Anyway, thanks again for putting me on the path to the solution.

    Location of OE message store:

    In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
