Every time I have copy the files from the DVD drive or pen, why a file called Thumbs.db is added to each folder. Is this a virus

Whenever I have copy files from a DVD or a pen drive of a computer to my laptop runs on Windows Vista, I find that a file called Thumbs.db is added to each folder. Why this happens. This means that the DVD or pen drive is infected.

If I delete this file or format these DVD player or a pen, then it is not readable in the laptop or another computer.

  • How can I get rid of the black bar that appears in the middle of the screen every time I have set the basic like the volume control features, or brightness levels?

    Hi, can someone help me with a really annoying (and I'm sure a simple to fix) problem?  I don't know if it's related to Windows 7 or if it's just my laptop plays up.  I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Visa and whenever I have increase/decrease noise, brightness, etc (no matter if I do this using the key on the keyboard or via the control panel), a black bar appears in the middle of the display, indicating the levels that I'm reaching with the adjustments.  It's useful... except it does not disappear after that I'm done.  The bar stays there for all the time that I am connected and text blocks, images on the screen that I can't minimize or even move it out of the road.

    Hi Mkum

    The bar you describe look like this image?

    If so, this is part of the HP software that is installed on the computer.

    Hello

    Even when you choose to modify or delete information more up-to-date security, we don't entirely remove it for 30 days. This waiting period allows to deter pirates update your security information and access your account without your knowledge. But the waiting period does not mean that you are locked in your Microsoft account. That's why you get the message that appears.

    I hope this helps. Let us know if you need help about the problem with Windows.

  • I have installed Compatibility reporter my Skype add in would work. Now every time I have start fire fox I get and error componets.classes['@softage.ru/skypeFfextesion;1 "] is not defined." How can I not this error? Thank you

    I used to use Skype to call directly from firefox. Double click on the number. It has stopped working. Support told me to allow the compatibility reporter, but now, I still get the error that I explained in the question

    This is an indication that the Skype extension does not work properly.

    You can force an extension to install, but this does not mean that the extension works, you need to delete Skype and wait for an update.

    Did you delete the Documents folder that is normally found in your folder/Home /? The entrance to the docking station is simply a form of alias created by dragging the real Documents folder icon in the Dock. Is that what you did? In addition, this has nothing to do with the downloads. Those who go into the downloads folder, also in the folder/home /.

    Thanks for the screenshots. Very useful.

    It seems that you are going to the Help Menu and selecting 'Elements Inspiration Browser' which should be the Aggiomamenti that put you in your screenshot. Keep out of the way. If you go as far as its connection dialog box, quit just there. This seems to be

    associated with photoshop.com, which was abandoned long ago. As I mentioned before, there will be thumbnails

    and other elements of photoshop.com in your program, but none of the items are available to you.

    In respect of assistance, I would also keep away from updates. The update that needs to be done for version 9 (Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements)

    is very limited and are those already mentioned. If you decide to install the 9.0.3 update for Photoshop Elements 9, please use the link to Adobe

    already provided. As mentioned, 9.0.3 is not an update for Photoshop Elements 9. However, you will probably get what is called nag messages except if you install 9.0.3 update. I would simply ignore the messages of AGN. I don't think you can do these messages "do not show again".

    What you should focus in respect of aid is the first entry '? Help of Photoshop Elements... F1' and its first Elements 9. It's

    where I suspect you might find the Photoshop elements 9 help PDF and the first elements 9 help PDF in Italian.

    Please consider and let me know if you're OK with the above.

    Thank you.
