Fast support Tec legitimate?

I've been scammed before, I'm embarrassed to say, and I know that Cardinal rule number one of the Internet is never buy or sign up for all that has been done to you, rather than you start looking for the product. I received a phone call this morning from an outfit in area code 213, (even if ALI read 131 as Captain) saying that I had been hacked and needed to fix my network. I was directed to open Terminal on my MacBook which I could see a list of IP addresses, preceded by the prefix tcp3 and under the heading < State > reading connected or something like that after each of them. The representative on the phone worked with me for a couple of hours as it solved the (apparent) problem while in control of my computer, and in the end offered firmware that would prevent further attacks to succeed, so that provides protection against viruses, etc.. Company URL fastsupportec.com, which is also his name. Is it normal for a third person monitor network traffic on the individual computer at random (although the representative said that I was getting this service because of some other security protection that I already had) and inform them of hacking related parties? I should add that the rep was very polite and knew my details. A I really screw up, once again? Thank you and please, be gentle.

You have been scammed again.

# It is not normal for them to monitor network traffic. It is impossible for them to say what you do on your Mac.

I suggest at this stage, at a minimum, you change all your passwords, call your Bank and tell them that you have been victim of a scam and need to have new credit cards issued.

  • Video stuttering on Satellite P100

    Hello..

    I had a Satellite P100-347 (PSPA6E), with the center of the media as the Windows XP Home edition operating system. Whenever I want to watch a DVD with media player, real player, media center or WinDVD video is stuttering and the video and audio are not working well.

    If I want to use the fast support (stop, pressing the button quick media, it does not start windows, it will start the media section) then the screen freezes for a few seconds after the start of the DVD. I have to hold the power button until the laptop turns off.

    Any suggestions please.

  • Elan Touchpad problem, after Windows 8.1 unsuccessfully

    I recently updated to Windows 8.1 and noticed that my features Elan Touchpad not working at startup and the dynamic icon was missing from the toolbar.  I went into the settings 'mouse' in the control panel and noticed that the driver was still charged.  More interesting still, after hitting OK, the dynamic icon appears and gestures worked.

    Of course, I tried to update the drivers of the momentum, but after that, I noticed that the gestures were different, and specifically, missing four fingers gestures to switch in between the desktop and the start menu.  For this reason, I uninstalled the driver and tried to return to the old with four finger gestures.  Any time I tried to install the older driver, however, installation would break and the system would be self-repairing return to the former State of Windows where the characteristics of momentum Touchapd was missing until I loaded the menu of the mouse and click OK.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem, in addition to placing a shortcut on the desktop to make it easier to load the menu 'mouse' in the control panel?  Is there another available driver where to work the four finger gestures?

    Yes Yes. The updated driver works fine . Thank you for the fast support!

    What I did:

    -TouchPad_ELANTECH_11.6.4.001_W7x64_A.zip uploaded

    -In the Device Manager, under "mice and other pointing devices, right click on" Port of PS/2 ELAN Smart-Pad "choose uninstall. Dialogue in the "confirm device uninstall", box ticked the ' remove the software driver for this device "and press OK. Restart the laptop.

    -Unzip TouchPad_ELANTECH_11.6.4.001_W7x64_A

    -Launch the Setup.exe in TouchPad_Elantech_11.6.4.001_W8x86x64 (which is in TouchPad_ELANTECH_11.6.4.001_W7x64_A)

    -Restart.

    The momentum (dynamic) pointing device icon appears in the system tray as it did before you update windows 8.1.

  • Huawei has installed a malware during the installation of the drivers for the wireless modem: tips to remove the registry keys?

    Huawei sd usb storage

    Applies to: Windows | Windows Vista | Hardware and drivers

    A month before, I let a co-worker install a modem Wireless USB as Huawei to use my laptop somewhere without wifi service.  Subsequently, I uninstalled the software drivers because I don't think I'll ever use this modem again.

    Now, I noticed that there are several registry keys for different devices of e/s as:
    Huawei_sd_storage_usb
    and
    Huawei_some other drive type

    None of these registry keys can be deleted, I get an error saying that "year error occurred during an attempt to delete the key.  Same thing if I try to write data in the registry key.  This behavior resembles a persistent virus and not a register legitimate supporting a legitimate PnP device.

    I then rebooted in safe MODE, thinking which should pick up anything the malware is hung.  No go, same thing, cannot remove the key and cannot modify the data in the key.

    None of the malware scanners were able to detect this, including:
    Paid last AVG
    Windows Defender
    Microsoft Security Essential
    Spybot S & D latest
    Malware Microsoft Fixit

    I don't trust Huawei, and what look like these keys are to monitor my laptops I/O activities through any player or the USB port.

    HP DV5t-1000 CTO
    Pentium dual core 2.54
    4 GB of DDR, Home Premium Vista 64

    I'm moving your question on the forum of Windows for material and the Drivers.These are the registry keys related to the legitimate drivers provided by the manufacturer of the device and are not related to malware.

    Note, however, that you have an overload of running security software and some should be deleted. If you use Microsoft Security Essentials, you must disable Windows Defender in Vista and AVG should be removed, preferably using the AVG removal tool. I have no idea what is the Microsoft Malware Fixit.

    You should never have more than one security product installed on the PC, providing active protection / scan. This can cause performance problems, system instability and may adversely affect the effectiveness of these two products to provide protection.

  • With the help of hp officejet 100 in Malaysia

    We are a trading company in Japan to buy "HP officejet 100 Mobile" to the United States. Then ship to the Malaysia and use it in Malaysia. In this situation,

    1, the printer needs special care for use in Malaysia?

    2, #1 question is 'YES', is the special maintenance able to do by ourselves (or need to send to HP WE?)?

    3, the cartridges purchased in Malaysia can work without any problem?

    Appreciate for your fast support.

    Thank you.

    Cloarec

    Hello

    1. & 2: you probably have to be sent to the United States. But as a society, you can deal directly with the HP Malaysia and ask them to

An event includes information about the type of accident, the date and time when it happened, the computer where he arrived and the user who was logged on at the time, and other information such as event ID, event category, and the source of the event. Events may also include detailed information on the event and, possibly, a link where more information can be found.

  • Scam phone virus

    The scam reported in the 2012 forum is still ongoing. I get 4-5 a week phone calls telling me to go to the event viewer and look at things, and then type a random URL in my box of Run. The first time I started to follow their directions, and, noting that it was a scam, I reset my computer. But it has happened since then.

    In addition to my name, number, personal information, Dell serial number, express service code, and date of purchase, this guy could tell me as MY HISTORY of COMPLAINT. He could tell me the questions I had when I had specifically called Dell in the past.

    This is ridiculous. The calls come from lots of different numbers to all sites. Worse still, they often come now a hidden private number!

    I was already too disappointed by the Dell customer service as they failed to repeatedly fix the problem of my computer, and then for the last 9 months I have received these scam calls.

    Needless to say, I don't see purchases from Dell in my future. In fact, I enjoy to tell every person I can how horrible my experience was.

    Thank you contact us on the Dell Community Forum customer protection Office regarding unsolicited calls claiming to be from Dell Technical Support. This is currently a vast problem of the industry and affect other well-known companies, including Microsoft, Apple, and in a variation of this scheme, the IRS. We recommend that customers immediately hang up and call Dell if they have the slightest doubt that a call offering support is legitimate.

    We are actively investigating these reports and that it is easier when customers contact us. We have implemented a process allowing customers to report this type of technical support phone scam to https://marketing.dell.com/reportscams. Customers can find phone and Web support options at: www.dell.com/support. Additional information is available about Scammers posing as the Dell Technical Support, and a comment about it is on our Dell business blog...
