I can't stop adds popping up. The settings changed as you advise.

The adds are not pop up on google

These ads appear to be associated with Web sites that you are using, or they appear anytime, anywhere, anytime, seemingly without rhyme or reason?

A possible cause of unwanted ads is a bad add-on. Here's my method to track down and clean up bad Add - ons and other ad injectors. Sorry for the length - it is not as bad as it sounds:

(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 undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

(2) open Firefox page modules using either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

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

In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

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.

Any improvement?

(3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools 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.

Success?

    Original title: my laptop has lost all printers and windows & no longer recognizes them. Help! I can't print anything

    I use my laptop computer in a docking station.  I took it out to take for a trip and when I got home I plugged it back (as I always do).  Just before the trip, I have upgraded to Windows 7 and all my printers were working very well.  When I got home and pluged again, Windows does not recognize one of my printers.  When I try to add printers a say8ing error message "Windows can't open add printer."  The local print spooler service is not running.  Please restat the spooler or restart the machine. "I tried to restart and turn off the printer, etc.  Can someone help me?

    Hi RobynGP,
     
    This may occur if the print spooler requires other services, and these services are not running. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
     
    1. in Services, right-click on print spooler and then click Properties.

    2. click the Dependencies tab. The first box list all system services that must work for the print spooler start. These are dependencies.

    3 make a note of each service, click OK, and restart each service on which the print spooler is dependent, if the service is not already started. If a service is not started, right-click, click Properties, and then make sure that the startup type is automatic.

  • Size of the image changes when you move an image between Lightroom and CC.

    Size of the image changes when you move an image between Lightroom and CC.

    I opened a .dng image in LR and then opened it in the develop module.  I clicked on Crop Overlay and then on the "As Shot" (the lock is closed) menu drop-down and cropped to 11 x 17 and click 'Done '-.

    I click Ctrl-E and the image opens in the CC.  I click on the Image > Image size and the size of the Image is 13,288 inches on 20,533.

    Why change the size of the image?

    I believe that there is a menu to control the size of the image, and I've looked everywhere I see in LR and CC, I have googled various descriptions and I checked both Kelby books, but I can't understand not just how to keep the image at a uniform height when moving between LR and CC.

    Help!... Please?

    The size of the image has not changed. The number of pixels has not changed. Let me tell you. The number of pixels has not changed to a single pixel.

    The numbers relatively meaningless displayed by your software have changed.

    The image is always format 11 x 17 (17 divided by 11 = 1.545 and 20.533 divided by 13.288 = 1.545)

  • How can I stop CS4 announcements from the ad server calls?

    Hi people... I ran patience trying to figure this one, so I hope someone can point me in the best direction.

    When I insert a page in Dreamweaver CS4 from the local folder on my hard drive, Google ads on the page are always re-downloaded directly from the ad server. Changing in Live View is also, as just preview a page stored locally in a browser. I would like to stop this because if I add printing on my website ads it could look like I was deliberately clicking around my own site to increase the visits and revenue.

    For the moment, all changes to pages are made locally and uploaded only when I choose. I met talk farm premises, or something, and I wonder if this is the way to go. I got the idea (I think) but I don't know where to start and if I could do without the many weeks of work and headaches for whether or not it is the solution. Is there an easy way to make CS4 just use the ads to the local cache? Or another easy solution?

    Thank you

    Brian

    On the view menu, see if there is a check mark next to the display of the external files. If there is, click it to turn off the option. This should stop Dreamweaver to download something that is not on your local system.

    How can I stop this? I don't need 'Photo Stream' on my PC... It's too intrusive and disrespectful of Apple to ask me about it with no option of disengagement. Apple has not generally been seller insisting with their products, and it makes me less confident of them.

    What you might try is to go and install iCloud on your PC.  Then disconnect from iCloud, and uninstall it according to the bottom of this link:

  • How can I stop missing ID of the warnings of the police on imported eps graphics?

    I have a lot of imported graphics with all fonts converted to text vectorized.eps.  However, InDesign CS3 (Mac OS 10.6) is constantly give Miss warnings from the police.  When I use 'Find a police' the only options that are available are 'Find graphic' and 'done '.  When I open the graphic in Illustrator, I find no fonts.  Everything is described.

    How can I stop this annoying warning?  I don't want these warnings concern to my office.

    John

    Well, you could stop using EPS for beginners.

    It's an antiquated file format. Use instead HAVE or PDF from Illustrator.

    And one more thing, stop send native files to a print and send a PDF file. Who will take care of all your problems.

    All that being said, I suspect somewhere in EPS files, there are still some information from the police, but without seeing them I would just guess.

  • How can I stop automatic copy of the photo I deleted

    After deleting my files pictures photos, they seem to auto replicate themselves. How to sustain losses and prevents them from reproducing auto. I have windows XP with SP2.  Geoff cordially

    Unwanted copies have file names with
    copy "prefix of"?

    Example: Copy of IMG_1455.JPG

    If_yes_maybe the following tutorial, I wrote
    for XP offers a few ideas:

    Here's how to reproduce the unwanted
    copy of...

    Hold down your CTRL key and select multiple files...

    Place your pointer over the selected group
    (holding the key ctrl) and left click / drag
    the group even just the slightest bit... now
    release the mouse button.

    Ooops! More copies...

    Maybe the following will help:

    Sometimes most of the person who
    trying to select multiple by holding the CTRL
    or the SHIFT key down while clicking on the left to select the
    image files.

    Copies are created when you are unable to
    completely release the mouse button before
    you move the pointer to another file. When a group
    the selected file is dragged... even the slightest
    release the mouse button will produce a bit...
    copies of all the files previously highlighted.

    It's a little easier if you have your folder
    Options set at single click... that way you can
    select/deselect a file with just a mouse more
    and you don't have to click. For multiples you
    I have to keep... CTRL or Shift.

    Do not click on... no slip... no copy... maybe that of
    your solution. To adjust the click...
    Open a folder and go... Tools / folder
    Options / General tab... Check... 'single click '.
    To open an item"/ apply / OK.

    If you want to delete all the files in a folder
    You can try the following:

    Reach... Edition / select all... or type... CTRL / has...

    With all of the files selected... go... Drop / delete...
    or press your delete key... or... click on the
    Group and choose 'delete '.

    How do I find and remove unwanted 'copies '.
    of your image files.

    Open the folder that the images are saved in and
    on the left, click on the button 'Search' in your toolbar.

    (If you view the files from a montage
    program and do not know where the record is... right
    Click on one of the image files and the menu...
    choose... Properties. The path to the folder will be
    in the tab 'General' to 'Place').

    Hello

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll certainly try and help you fix the issue; However, I will need to ask you a few questions.

    1. what version of IE are you using?

    2 do you have of them pack installed?

    3. do you have an antivirus installed on the computer?

    4. do you also deal with any show related to problems with the computer?

    5. are you aware of any changes made to the computer before the show?

    First of all, you can run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

    Note: there is a risk of data loss if all the files are infected and which can be removed in the cleaning process.

    You can then try to launch the FIXIT of the article and see if it helps. Also go through the steps in this article as well and check it out.

    If you try the manual steps, do not forget to back up the registry.
