  • How to block email SPAM?

    I want to block my email spam

    * original title - I blocked vulgar spam and it keeps back how to stop IT *.

    You can use rules to messages in OE for shunt of messages to a junk e-mail folder, and then you can easily filter the junk e-mail folder.  Go to tools | Message rules and set up a rule that if the message is for you, then stop processing more rules.  Then set up a rule to move all messages to the junk e-mail folder (create the first).  Then all messages not to you will get dumped into the junk e-mail folder.  Alternatively, you can set up a message rule that if the object contains some words, then you can also move messages to the junk e-mail folder.  See also http://www.insideoe.com/tips/rules.htm

  • I receive email spam from my yahoo email account contacts. Am I at risk of being hacked too?

    I get spam from my gmail contacts 2. One grandson, with a yahoo email account. Another, ' name sent on ", on account of yahoo from a friend of the family. There is no topic and no content in these emails, just a link to click on. I clicked on the first link sent my grandson. The first time, my search engine, Mozilla Firefox, would not lead the link. So 6 or so, he led to a site advertising Viagra. Quickly, I broke the link. I have not clicked on the link in his second e-mail "not applicable". But I sent him a separate email, asking him why he was sending these. Then today I received another one of those spam e-mails from the friend of the family (which had not sent us more than 2 years) and was immediately suspicious.

    It is obvious to me now that these two people have had their email accounts hijacked. Am I at risk of also taken hostage? My only security is Microsoft Security Essentials. It will be enough? Or I have to download Malwarebytes and perform a scan in safe mode, etc. ?

    Thank you for any answers you can provide.

    I solved my problem of Spam earlier by placing all the Emails in my filter anti-spam and then remove those I wanted friends etc. and transfer them to my post, but in the last 2 weeks I have received emails Spam with a SUBJECT LINE, but no RETURN ADDRESS.  There is no provision for the placement of the spam without a return address in the spam FILTER.  Can someone help me?    Can Microsoft Windows Live Update to allow the placement of files without return address in the spam FILTER?

  • 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?

    You use the iOS Mail application?

  • Does anyone have a CONCISE answer to the catastrophe of adobe_flash_setup?

    Unfortunately, I got caught by the Adobe_flash_setup disaster. At the beginning it was not too bad, but now, if I open Firefox with ANY web browser and then simply click on the window of the browser search I had up to nine windows or tabs pop up. I did everything what I found online. I have cleared things out of the registry, I ran all kinds of adware detectors. I finally bought reimage since Mozilla suggested that it was a way to fix it. I paid the money, the program lasted almost half a day and claims to have done a lot of things but, after reinstalled the reimage Windows removed 97 updates, I pulled to the top of Firefox and get always the same shit.

    Inernet Explorer works well on my machine, I have to use Firefox is totally impossible to use at this stage. I hope someone can come up with a REAL answer and send me an email. My next option is to clean the machine, reinstall Windows and start over.

    I'm not familiar with reimage. Who recommended only? Usually, we offer free software solutions here on the forum.

    It sounds as if your system is not clean. You could:

    Without launching Firefox:

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the surface elements undisclosed bundle which snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Beware of everything that you don't recognize / remember, since malware often uses sounding names important or innocent to discourage you remove. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) supplement to your regular security with several scanning/cleaning tools software listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

    Start Firefox in Mode safe by holding down SHIFT key when starting Firefox. A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not Refresh). Then:

    (3) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. So, if in doubt, remove, if possible, extensions not recognized and unwanted.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    (4) check your Firefox connection settings here:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced > tab mini network > button "settings".

    The default "Use system proxy settings" should follow the settings of IE, but you can also try the 'no proxy '.

    Any improvement?

  • Access to the floppy drive crashes Windows with code: 0X000000F7

    After you have installed the Windows XP updates a week ago (10/22/09 - while others seem to have gotten 0x000000E7 BSOD), my computer hangs when you try to use the floppy drive.  Neighbor has same problem.  However, another neighbour, who did not install the updates since 1 September doesn't have this problem.  We use Windows XP.  I even created a file on the diskette using the player of the 'good' of the neighbor and tried in my computer and the neighbour - always crushed the two machines.  Saw post to that topic or similar problem the other day, but he lost it when I hit the wrong button and cannot find him. Help!

    He is now 10/29 (5:20 pm EDT), and after three days of trying to solve this problem, I'm really frustrated.  Carefully removed eight updates installed since 14/10/2009. I removed them one at a time in reverse order, they were installed (LIFO) and I tried using the floppy after each removal drive, but still get BSOD. My BIOS/CMOS watch floppy drive and my device manager says its working. I even deleted the physically and in the BIOS, floppy drive deleted the contoller of floppy and drivers floppy drive in Device Manager. restarted and other devices working properly.  Reinstalled drive, reset the BIOS, restarted and Windows loaded automatically (as checked in the Device Manager) drivers - always get BSOD when trying to read the disk.

    I would have completely uninstalled CA, except that this user really liked the CA email spam filtering. So, I disabled the antivirus and antispyware of all parties and uninstalled the CA Personal Firewall, and here, the floppy drive has started working. I then installed the new Microsoft Security Essentials to prvide a / v sp and psyware protection.

  • IPv4 NAT in IPV6 for Internet access

    Advanced thanks.

    New Internet transport is incoming.

    IPv4 and 6 addresses are available for use.

    A notion exists that any V4 address assigned to we were able to be used elsewhere and is, therefore, a security risk potential (I have trouble understanding this fear. Please do not hesitate to comment be it).

    He is asked if it is possible to NAT the address private to a supplied bracket V6 public address range.

    I've read so far no indication that this is possible.

    If anyone knows otherwise, I welcome your comments.

    Thank you

    IPv4 and 6 addresses are available for use.

    Well Yes.  V6 is more than 50% of the data traffic of cell LTE4 in the United States, more than 40% of traffic in backbone of the Belgium, tends to work better than the v4 for mobile devices, etc.  It's true.  We are in the interregnum of double-internet, where not all clients can talk to all servers, until the transition of the v6 is over 15 years.

    ... no matter what V4 address assigned to we were able to be used elsewhere and is, therefore, a potential security risk

    Because the IPv4 address space is commonly used around the world, most ISP are turning to 'carrier grade NAT' where customers share the overall scope of intellectual to a NAT upstream.  The reputation of the internet of such middlebox will trend down in the most infected client / badly behaved behind it, which is always going to be a zombie botnet.  Could collateral damage to the protocols used by perfectly well-behaved clients that also share the catwalk of the GNC.

    During this time, you can not new the regional internet registrys IPv4 subnets, so your only effective source of additional IP space is to pay for a transfer to someone else.  The transferred subnet was probably already in use and so can be on blacklists to email spamming or have blackhole routes to the backbone of the ISP.  He could have previously also housed nuisance attractive such as banking or services of Paris that are often being DDOSd because of the inertia of the miscreant.  This can take time and effort to clean.

    Recycled IPv4 addresses that are actually working for you are not particularly more at risk than the addresses of archaic origin question from a security point of view; mainly, endpoint software quality-controlled not by mere reputation.

    [it is] NAT possible range of addresses private to a supplied bracket V6 sound

    Sort of.  The usual problem is that a client v6 only (say, a cellphone LTE4) tries to join a v4 service only (for example, a typical business web site).  This requires 6--> 4 translation; for that this week the default mechanism seems to be "464xlat".  The customer gets two v6/64 prefixes, transport v6 only and a private address v4 which is in tunnel on the secondary prefix to a carrier grade NAT64/DNS64 middlebox.

    The inverse problem of a customer only v4 trying to reach the Server v6 only is usually academic; usually you dual-stack to the client instead and there aren't many services only v6, although this will change.

    The IETF has downgraded RFC 2766 NAT - PT for the translation of v4 to v6 historical belonging, meaning it is not recommended for use on the internet in general, in the RFC 4966.  In addition to all the usual problems of NAT, NAT - PT does not work across ISPS due to the inability to get the right DNS46 TTL values.  If you try only translate a small subnet of a single body, say a v4/24, you might be able to find a software that did it, but it's the wrong way to take.

    If the problem is that the customer support not double stack v4 + v6, switch to something produced in this century; even windows XP can be dual-Stack if offer you it DNS on v4.

    If the problem is the ISP offer v6-transport, tunnel traffic v4 across this gap v6 to a double gateway to battery.
