  • Infected by a virus that automatically sends to all Hotmail contacts list

    I seem to have gotten infected with a virus that will address to my contacts list hotmail together with false advertising. However when I connect to hotmail from another computer not infected at a different location, the spamming of my hotmail contacts re - occurred which seems to suggest the virus got on the hotmail server. Everyone knows this. I ran AVG etc. on the original computer, but no virus found.

    Hello

    Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your password by e-mail.

    It is possible for a person to send the email that 'seems' to be of your
    account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
    were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone
    who receives the e-mails to check the header to see where he is actually sent by and
    NOT only the answer to the address.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy

  • Invasion of e-mail-contact list my contacts are bombarded with ads that I have not sent

    Someone has invaded my e-mail contacts list. My contacts are bombarded with ads for viagra, solicitations for *, and other annoying (no relation to me) elements. Many are angry with me one blocked me to send them emails. -What happened? It seems that the emails are about me! What can I do? I had the same address for 10 years and never had a problem.

    It is common for spammers to hijack the address of an innocent victim and use it as the mailing address (it happens to almost everyone).  You will notice when you begin to receive NDRs from addresses that do not exist and to which did not send you.  You will also notice your particularly targeted contacts.  This is no big deal and does not mean that your mailbox has been compromised.  You should see the decrease in non-delivery reports and stop completely after a few days that the spammer is using another address to send.

    On the other hand, if you find your specific contacts are being targeted, then it is much more likely that your mail has been compromised.  It could be your PC or it could be your e-mail account on the server.  Look in your sent items folder.  If you see these messages to your contacts, then your PC has been compromised, and you may need to back up your data and reinstall Windows from scratch to get rid of the compromise.  You will need the security best practices as well.

    If you do not see messages in sent items, then it is more likely that your mailbox on the server has been compromised.  In this case, if you can still access the mailbox through a web browser, log in there and change your password immediately.  Choose a complex password that is not a word in the dictionary; which contains mixed uppercase, numbers and special characters, and isat ten characters.  Then start practicing more safe safety habits, for example, access does not to any online service that does not use https in front of the URL by using a public wifi hotspot, such as nearby your home local coffee.  Making the box mailbox inaccessible to anyone who can access now should prevent intrusion.

  • iPad2 is auto added to my contacts list

    iPad 2

    iOS 9.3.5

    My iPad has/is adding contacts to my contact list. If the person is already in my list, the list will change to everything which (I) the person has as their contact name. If the email had remained under adverse or Spam, it gets listed below under the heading of #.

    As you can see, I do not use the family name to keep my list as 1st of the name. The lower part shows the unknown lists. I assume these are emails spam since I deleted 2 today.

    I studied the options in the settings for that matter and found nothing. I am having trouble with iCloud for something totally different, but all have save / update / everything that's out there. [FYI, my problem w / iCloud is my deletion of a record fm it & not read the warning that the file would get dumped fm my machine.] [I'm trying to maybe hopefully retrieve].

    Suggestions? Please?

  • my contact list has been hacked and disappeared completely, what do I do?

    Today (17/08/16) while doing a search for card on my iPod, I received a message that my device could not connect with the server. I checked the wifi settings and everything seemed normal.

    A few hours later I started to receive messages undelivered Damon of the people on my contact list, but I had not sent all recent messages. He became a snowstorm of mail returned with comments indicating that a file 'drop zone .pdf' could not be opened.

    When I went to my contact list to meet some of the shippers, I found that my list of contacts it had been cleaned up with only my name remaining. This list was perhaps 200 + names and information. I've never had a security problem with apple products and I am a user since the 1980s.

    I share an Internet connection with my other significant and it has a windows 10 laptop PC. I did a complete antivirus on his device scan and found three variations of a Trojan which were immediately eliminated. I'm assuming that one of the virus/Trojan horse the culprit but it is possible t it completely deleted (not copied) my entire contact list and if so, is there a way to restore the original information? In addition, I find that most of my posts had been blurred and missing both headers

  • I lost my contact list.how do

    I had a similar situation where an old laptop died and with him went my address book, but it was not bad as I first feared because your contact details are also in the history of the sent and received emails, and as I've been using IMAP I had the history back as soon as I installed Thunderbird on the new laptop.

    It was a bit of a pain at first, but Thunderbird soon built again to the top of your contact list.

  • How to copy my files to email contact lists for transfer on my laptop after repair of the manufacturer.

    Hello

    My laptop almost 3 year, shows signs of age and I have to send it to the manufacturers to replace a keyboard and the reader of cd/dvc. I'll have to save all my pictures and documents on a portable player so I can copy them to the repairedcomputer once it is returned to me. I also have a load of saved bookmarks which I want to keep and I think that it is also possible. My biggest problem is I use Thunderbird as a filing system for all important emails and keep my email contacts list and I wish I could copy them all when I clear my computer so I can copy them on my laptop newly repaired.

    For most of you, this task is as simple as copying my photos or documents, but I get very confused with profiles etc in Mozilla. I wish it were as easy as a file, copy of emails to... but not yet. I would appreciate help on this.

    Crush the Thunderbird profile folder ends the new profile. So, you have just an old.

  • Contact list hack?

    Contact list hack? People from my contact list received an email from 'me' to the 'click here to get rich type. Email is not of me, but a number of email addresses @terra.com.br. Only small groups of contacts both seem to be addressed.

    My email provider is @tpg.com.au and I use Thunderbird on my mac and the application of Apple Contacts for addresses.

    My contact list has been hacked, and what should I do?

    Your contact list could have been hacked is via iCloud (if use you it). Change your iCloud password, just in case. Do the same with your tpg account.

    Another possibility is that at some point you sent mail to many people on your contacts list. In this case, the leak could be any of them.

  • When you send an e-mail, I lost the address book contact list address on the left side.

    I used to have address book contacts list on the left side of the page, which is transferred to allow easy selection of the recipients. He disappeared and I need this back.
    Thank you very much

    OK, you started a new message, you click on answer, or you clicked on to the front.

    The new message window opens. This is where you should expect to see the Contacts Sidebar. At this point by pressing F9 on your keyboard (do you need to use a special function key to access the F9 key action?) should display on the left. (You said you "click on F9"?)

    If F9 does not work, turn on the menu of the compose window.

    Press and hold the < alt > key on your keyboard. Press V. The menu should appear. There you can select Contacts Sidebar.

    If you want to have the Menu or the toolbar displayed each time press and hold the < alt > key on your keyboard, press V, and then toolbars, where you can select the Composition toolbar.

    When the toolbar is visible, you can customize it to include a Contacts button, if it has not already a. You will see a custom option while following one of the sequences leading up to, or you can right-cliik the toolbar itself.

  • How can I move my Outlook to Thunderbird contacts list?

    How can I move my Outlook contacts list to a list of contacts from Thunderbird?

    Is it the client to Outlook, or outlook.come-mail, name of this year for what was formerly hotmail and live email?

    If the first and it is on the same computer, Thunderbird should be able to import it.

    Otherwise, import your address book from outlook to a CSV file and then import this file into Thunderbird.

    It may be useful (if not also necessary!) to open the CSV file in your spreadsheet and cut on all spare columns - i.e. all virgins ones - before attempting to import in Thunderbird.

  • Since the installation of 32.0, my contact list is not in alphabetical order. Seems to be dated, then alpha by name. Why?

    Running Version 32.0. As it has been installed, my Contact list is not displayed in alphabetical order. Instead the contact appear to be displayed in activity date and/or time, and then by order of name. Example, I got a list of contacts 25 in sequence pell-mell, when I changed a piece of dat and found that the contact has changed is now at the top of the list! I changed a contact who should appear above this on and also, he went to the top of the list. In this way, I got the entire list in order. I then saw a mistake on one and corrected these contact data. This time went to the top of the list!

    If I can provide any other information, please let me know.

    May I suggest to revert to a previous version and by adopting a more cautious approach to upgrades?

    In Thunderbird Windows updates are automatic by default. In order to avoid similar situations in the future, you could change that and decide to have a more cautious approach to updates.

    Before trying what anyone, make a backup of your Thunderbird profile.

    You can uninstall the current version of Thunderbird via Control Panel > programs and features and reinstall a previous version, download it from here:

    Click the type for your operating system. for example: If you use Windows select "win32", then select the language for example: en-GB British English = then download the .exe file

    You can customize the behavior of automatic updates, however, it is under Tools > Options > advanced > update.

    My suggestion would be to check the updates but let me choose whether to install them.especially if you depend on critical business e-mail / important or personal questions.
