Avira has joined the dark side?
Looks Avira has partnered with the highly questionable Ask.comand Uniblue RegistryBooster, install both by default with their free Anti-Vir AV.
These programs are adware at best, maybe scamware and have no place belonging to a security product. Once used, trusted and recommended the free and paid versions of Anti-Vir.
None. Like Zone Alarm, Comodo, Ad-aware and AVG, they lost my confidence.

The Blog of Corrine information confirmed that Avira has gone to the dark side - I would be Livid if I was a user of Avira.

I've never had a problem sending & or receive e-mail before these days. All of a sudden the Send button has disappeared and my address list on the left side also disappeared.
I find help that suggests the opening of Scripture and then press F9 to retrieve the list of addresses. The list of addresses returned on the left, but did not appear as he used to say. the length of the screen. What is however now it will be satisfactory. The button 'send' is still missing which is frustrating because I was not able to send emails for about a week now.
Would appreciate advice on how to recover the above.
Thank you.Open a window of writing.
Do you have the toolbar of Composition with Send-spelling-Attach, etc?
Otherwise go to the Menu bar and select display-toolbars and turn it back on.
If you are also missing the bar of menus with top view, press the alt key to display, and then turn on the missing toolbars.If you have some of the bar Composition tools but lack just the Send button, click with the right button on the toolbar and select Customize. Find the button send in the dialog box that opens, and he reglisser in place.

TE2100 has 1 inch of screen missing on the right side with WinXP
TE2100 has 1 inch of screen missing on the right side with Windows XP, but it is not absent with Freespire.
Anyone know how to open the full width of the screen? I thought that Fn + F10 was the reason, but it does not work on one of my TE2100. Nothing is missing 'under' the Virgin 1 inch, it just uses it for some reason any. What gives? Thank you.

Have you checked the properties of the graphics card if there is an option called activate the full screen or something like that? Sorry, but I don t know the name exactly.
You can also try to check the BIOS if there is a similar option.

My taskbar has moved to the right side of the screen rather than on the bottom. Is it possible to fix?
1. right click on the taskbar and uncheck "lock the taskbar".
2. move the mouse on the border of the taskbar until the mouse turns into black arrow; then stop, left-button-down and drag the taskbar whenever you want.
3. then, you can lock the taskbar again.

My screen has moved to the right. The scroll bar on the right side is more visible to use. What should I do?
Hi roseann.loasby,
As the display is shifted to the right the problem is more to do with your monitor than Windows. A monitor, it of like a TV and invokes hold vertical and horizontal button options to keep the image in place.
There should be options on your monitor to make changes to the positioning vertical/hortizonal (in your horizontal case). Most monitors have an 'auto' option that automatically adjusts the diaply photo, so it is well positioned. It's nothing serious, however, you will need to check your user guide for the monitor to see what options you have to use the re - adjust the horizontal positioning. If there is a "menu" button on the front of your monitor try to press to view a display on your monitor. You can then either use the option 'auto' or else click the left/right arrows (usually on each side of the on-screen menu button) to adjust the menu and then the position.
If you are not confident to do this, you ask someone with more knowledge to do it for you. By pressing the wrong button, you can make the screen more out of alignment, so be careful, as otherwise it will be a matter of trial and error until you have reset the monitor correctly.
It is a fairly simple job to do, but because every monitor is different, it is difficult to write clear instructions because I could tell you to press a button and this button may not be here, then take a look at your user guide for the monitor first to familiarize yourself with the buttons are available.

My husband touched something and my usual position for the start icon and notification bar went to another location. I want to the bottom of the screen where it has always been. I tried all the 'tools' that I could find, and the suggestion was to drag. It does not work. Help!

You can 'unlock' before you drag.

When a photo for example has a bright sky next to the dark object, using lights and shadows to reduce high contrast can cause a 'halo' or double-edge to appear. How can I avoid this?
From my experience, this isn't a problem that has a simple solution, such as moving a slider or a combination of the sliders in LR. It requires rather a major change in the technique, at the unit or in office. Some pros (I am not one) tire ALWAYS support HDR or this reason - better transition from highlights to shadows, then tweak the image with much less "heavy" necessary. Another popular technique is the luminosity masking and blending in PS. There is a ton of information on this topic (just do a search on Youtube), but it's not easy to learn or do, but it can eliminate this problem.

I use LR on a mac. By developing her photographs, the sliders on the right side - exposure, contrast, shading has disappeared and I am not able to bring them back. That I switch to get them back?
Control-click on one of the other section in the develop Panel headers (curve tone, Split Toning, retail etc.). This opens a menu that allow you to re - select this option to display the base Panel you've lost.
