How to stop the notices for a download, that I DON'T WANT?

The last time I downloaded an update, my computer would not work properly and crashed several times. I have a better than average anti-virus program and I don't want your update and I'm tired of seeing reviews for him pop up! I can always go back to IE if you do not want my patronage.

There are some add-ons that torment you with update of fake messages that lead to malware or other problems. Please take a look at your page of modules and disable all non-essential or unrecognized modules on these two tabs:

Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Plugins category

Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Extensions category

Typically, 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.

To adjust own Firefox update settings, see this article: Advanced panel - accessibility, navigation, network, updates and other settings in advanced Firefox.

  • How to stop a search for a website that I decided that I don't want?

    When I changed my mind on a site that Firefox has already begun to look for, how to stop the process?

    Firefox 4 and later versions use a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is placed at the right end of the address bar. During the process of loading page it shows as a stop button and once the charging button is replaced by a reload button. If you type in the address bar this button would then become a button go. If Firefox takes on a site and you want more, you can press the Stop button and then the load should stop.

  • pressing the key "w" lance programs that I don't want to open.

    Whenever I hit the "w" key on my keyboard, it opens the programs that I don't want to not open.  ITunes, internet explore etc. open up and stop what ever I am working.  It is a real headache when I work on word documents.  How can I stop this?

    Hi WSGP.

    Thank you for using Vista answers Forum.

    This only occurs in Microsoft Word?
    You press another key at the same time with the key "w"?
    Are you using any character language alternative cards?

    I suggest all first update your antivirus software and do a full scan of your computer.

    I suggest then perform a clean boot to isolate startup programs that can cause this problem.
    Here is an article on how to do it:

  • How to stop the connectivity between two computers that use the same IP address... ?

    Today, I managed to connect two computers with the same IP address. But now it is to be feared. for example, a person can access my computers using my IP and MAC address. So now, how can I stop the connectivity between these two computers. should what setting I use to stop.

    Tahnks.

    Hello

    1 have. what measures you taken to connect 2 computers with the same IP address?

    2. How are the 2 computers connected?

    3. how exactly you want to stop the connectivity between 2 computers?

    I want to tell you that 2 computers on the same network cannot have the same address. Each machine must have a unique address to identify it. A private network, as a home network connected to the internet, can be connected to a router to connect to the network, will have only 1 address, public IP address.

    In addition, if we know the IP address of a computer along the user ID and password, we can access the computer/shared files.

     
    If you are referring to the change of the IP address of the two computers, you can follow these steps and check.
     
    a. network connections open. Click the Start button, and then click Control Panel. In the search box, type 'adapter' and then, under center network and sharing, click view network connections.
    b. right click on the connection you want to change. Click on properties. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    c. click on the network tab. Under this connection uses the following items, click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) or Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6), and then click the properties button. To specify your IP for IPv4, click on use the following IP address, and then, at the address IP, subnet mask, and gateway boxes by default, type IP address settings.
     
    A typical IPv4 address looks like 192.168.0.2; a typical subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The default gateway is usually the address of your router.
    For example, IP address: 192.168.0.2 by 192.168.0.12 (for computers)
    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    DNS: 192.168.0.1

  • How to stop the slide for the duration of the legend? How make it slow down a notch?

    Hi, I am very new to Captivate, but I can only borrow for tonight so please help.

    I captured a video with Captivate and now I have to add a few legends. But the video is short, so I want to slow it down a bit in some areas (if possible) and I would also like to pause the video during the duration of the legend. So it would be similar to adding breaks for captions.

    Is this possible? How?

    I could be wrong, but you save Full Motion? When you add text captions, the duration of this legend is determined by CP took into account the amount of text to read. In the timeline panel, you will see the duration (time), captions, you can always adjust by changing the properties of this legend, in the sheet "Options". If you want the legend to stay until the user clicks, you will need to a button or a box click to trigger the slide to continue. In this case, you can also change the calendar of the legend of text 'for the rest of the slide.

    Moreover, you can always download a full version of Captivate work and use it free for a month.

  • I pay for a plan that I don't want

    In August, I bought the creative cloud (complete package for students and teachers) and I chose the monthly payment. I managed to create an account, but I have not received confirmation e-mail on my purchase and I still received a Bill in my bank account from a purchase of CAN $30.73. At first, I thought that everything was fine, so I do not pay attention to the end of my 30 day trial where my account was told that my trial ended and I had to buy a plan, because apparently, I hadn't bought anything. I thought my first purchase had not worked, so I bought the prepaid and I received my confirmation email. A few days ago I got my Bill from bank account and in it, I got the prepaid purchase AND one monthly.

    I can find no evidence of my monthly plan and I don't know how it happens. The only evidence I pay one monthly, is with unnecessary spending in my bank account.

    I need help please...

    Please contact Adobe on the Contact customer support

    Hope this will solve your problem.
