    The problem might actually be an add-on or another program to the origin of the problem and you should check that
    1st.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you have NEVER on it
    machines, including those that you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

    Start - all programs - Accessores - system tools - IE with no Addons - does this work better?

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security - reset all Zones by default level - apply / OK

    not better?

    Close IE and try again IE or IE with no Addons

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
    "(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.

    Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
    are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.

    Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
    are bad, but some can cause your question. (Toolbars are BHO)

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
    Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie, and then run it as a scanner.

    I would add prevx so.

    Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
    a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

  • The windows of the bar of Windows are already a form of tabs, so I need them in Firefox. How can I turn off completely from the 23 of Firefox?

    RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
    The windows bar already functions as a tab bar. These tabs are called "windows". So, I find windows superfluous Firefox tab. How can I turn off completely from the 23 of Firefox? I don't need to what are essentially the bars of TWO Windows covering the entire width of the image of my screen! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen, and if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position towards the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK at the windows of Firefox tabs bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a SECOND bar Windows superfluous.

    Here are my reasons why I prefer to use Mozilla's Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. I love and admire Firefox intended to Mozilla on good security for Personas Firefox Add-on and for free use of Firefox in the Add on Ad-Block, which, as you know, has the merit of separate to reduce the size of the screen - the last is my reason for wanting to get rid of "windows" Firefox SUPERFLUOUS tabs bar. I'm terribly sick companies forcing bars (most representative of marketing campaigns, trying to sell me something) in my browser (and in my throat) whenever I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I have deliberately talking about your bar of Firefox tabs as a '' windows' tabs Firefox bar', because the TABS are WINDOWS!)

    You can also have an addon to open new tabs in a new window.

  • How can I turn off DEP

    Original title: how to disable DEP?  He keeps everything stop.  I followed the steps, but it didn't work

    I recommend strongly against disable DEP and instead find the cause of the problems and try to fix it in place (just after these problems in detail and we might be able to help).  But if you insist on neutralising him, here are the instructions:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/120778-dep-enable-disable.html.  You need to be logged in as an administrator to do this.  If the problem is related to specific programs, DEP may be disabled for these programs while remaining active and thus solve the problem without disabling overall - here are the procedures:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/01/15/disable-and-turn-off-or-enable-or-turn-on-data-execution-prevention-dep-in-windows-vista/.

    I hope this helps and I hope you decide to try to fix the problems or to disable only for problems where it causes problems rather than turn off DEP in the world - but it's your decision.  In doing so, you delete an important part of your security features of the system and can open yourself up to the intrusion or infections (and possibly other problems caused by programs that could cause harm to the system).

    Good luck!

  • Can I turn off or put the PC to sleep?

    Hello

    I had sleep problems and the technician told me to not use sleep often.

    I use the PC daily between 09:00 - 14 am (standby) then I usually put on for a hour

    at about 20:00 and put it back to sleep.

    What the expert said I should do?

    Thank you!

    Hello KarlSu,

    While sleep is a useful option, I'm afraid, I'm agree with the technician told you. To be honest I much prefer to turn off my computer when I have finished using the PC. If I know I'll be away from my PC for a period of time, say half an hour or more, then yes I'll use the sleep option, but in general as soon as I finished my session the PC is turned off completely.

  • How can I turn off screen at the right time?

    Hello.

    This my first post here so please, be gentle.

    I have a Lenovo Ideacentre running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit with 4 GB of RAM desktop all-in-one.

    The display turns off always 15 minutes regardless of what happens in the "Power Options" which is very frustrating. I understand that the default setting of 15 minutes is used for laptops to save the battery, but it is also used on my all-in-one, even though I normally put the time in 5 hours Power Options. I can not also bring the display back unless I press Ctrl + Alt + Delete. I'm not sure but I think that this problem started after installing the latest Windows Update.

    Does anyone know of a solution to the please my problem? (I just want to be able to adjust the display time I want it to be and is limited to 15 minutes to an hour).

    andjen

    Excellent, well that was my first guess at least.

    It seems strange to me that the screen saver option set initially, but later it was power settings (no screen saver) who came back.  So I will at this stage to guess that changing the value of the new screen saver is more would all good, no?  If something has changed your power options, but this isn't a strategy of e-mail server and is not the screen saver.

    I think that at this point I could try to create a new power plan (link on the left side of the power options page) and see if activate a new plan of costs it will keep coming back.  Even if something like an old registry value exists, it should apply to the former regime.

  • How can I turn off shuffle on the latest ios 9. I don't care

    It was a maddening, any quest in the morning and I'm hoping someone can answer how to disable the option shuffle for IPAD. the reason for the caps is because I've been Googling all morning and every single response shows just iPHONE, screenshots, and they are clearly different interfaces because the options they show simply do not appear.

    I keep seeing again and again to choose a song from an album so the album art and song info are full screen and then tap the icon shuffle inside, although simply is not working because the selection of a new album in ipad brings to the top of the entire track on the album cover on the right and the left and simply select the cheek pieces. There is a big 'Shuffle' just above the track list, but by selecting only mix, changing and mixing the new order. The instructions for the iphone obviously do not correspond to the ipad so can someone who did an ipad tell me how to shuffle off please?

    I hate how Apple has now the need to keep changing the user interface more. I would rather have stuck with the ios interface 6 or ios 5 if it meant that they stopped to bury the functions in the most complicated way, non-obvious possible. Simple functions like this are supposed to be intuitive, not getting people to need to google all morning and then ask a question on a forum to find out. Thanks for the help!

    I have an iPad. The ways to the Shuffle is on the two screenshots below... The first one mixes everything. Another mix album only. If this does not work for your I would like to reset your music application or restore the iPad than something is wrong with the system.

    Reset music approx. close music completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and slide up the preview pane of music until it disappears from the display. Then perform a forced reboot. Hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
