I clicked ok for a "you have won" pop - up of my safari on my Iphone...

I clicked ok for a "you have won" pop - up of my safari. Immediately, I realized my mistake and closed the page.  I woke the next morning to find an email from my yahoo email user name but a different domain address.  I then found my Facebook application to redirect me to the same ad "you have won".   I cleared my history of brower and then changed my password for my email and Facebook. Then I discovered my contacts in my yahoo address book got emails also.  I have since made a factory reset on my phone and started a new e-mail address. Is this enough? Could there be a virus on my Iphone 6?  Do I need to worry about my apple account and bank accounts?

The only way that a virus can infect an iPhone is if it was jailbroken and I doubt that you have done this. Otherwise no virus. You have taken the correct steps of deletion of your data and the browser history and change passwords. I would like to change the password for your account Apple and if your bank accounts use the same PW or you bank details in your emails I would change the PWs Bank also. There is nothing to lose to.

About the incident, two things come to mind. First the pop up. If everything you did is, click on it and entered any information, then they got nothing. Simply, they planted a cookie in your browser that you deleted by deleting the history and data. Second, your e-mail account. Your e-mail may have been compromised (I do not see how by just the pop up if you don't have all the data, it could be a coincidence) OR a person you know and has you in their address book of pirate computer e-mail. It is easy to steal e-mail addresses and send emails to contacts that appear to come from you.

After changing the PWs I would just keep an eye on your bank accounts. E-mails unwanted or pop ups are not a concern at this point, just don't click the links or enter any info...  Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • Can you have multiple nested DAQmx writing VI?

    Hello everyone. I'm pretty new to Labview and am trying to find the best way to manage several instructions 'if' using a table of clusters and outputing to the various pins on a data acquisition module. Going to work to have a dozen DAQmx live write in the nested case statements, or will it cause errors?

    The goal is to take the entries by the out of control and front panel based on schedules and user input values. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    I thank very you much in advance!

    James

    Of course, you can have several writing VI DAQmx.

    Here is a tip that will save programming time you:

    The Index Array feature is re-sizable!  You don't need to break a wire table and 4 tables to Index and thread of the constants for each of them to get the individual items.  Just drop a, and then drag the bottom of the knot to the bottom until you get 4 outputs.  By default, they start at 0 and increment by 1 when you get off.  You will get the elements 0, 1, 2, and 3 without having to associate the constants to the index entry.

    I also recommend that, instead to use local variables, you keep the table of boolean in a thread that runs through all cases in a shift register.  Just replace the item array for any element of the array you are editing in a particular case.

    I have also modeled the code, you have no need for dozens of instructions box nested.  For example, you have one ON and OFF cases in one of the nests.  I'm assuming that the only difference is that you are wiring is real or fake.  Wiring just the Boolean value.  Various other code is duplicated between each case.  The same for the upper levels of the nest.  If you write to the acquisition of data in all cases, who move outside the structure of the case and just control what Boolean values to change the Interior structures of the case.

    You can not start any application on a client computer that is joined to the domain controller. When you try to start this type of application, you receive an error message similar to the following:
    "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    This can also occur if the user account is damaged. If the computer is not connected to a domain controller, try the following steps.
    1. connect to another user account and create a new user account to fix the damaged user account.

  • I would like to completely remove the nightly build of firefox. I searched for this info already and you have not found anything that could help. I am pretty new to linux. I am currently running ubuntu 11.10

    I'm just trying to remove every night of my computer. I deleted firefox 10 already. I'm going down to firefox 4, but before I do, I want every night of my computer and it is not listed in the Installer package synaptic or any other. There's a reason I want the old version of firefox, but I won't get into that right now. It is a totally different matter. But I'm pretty new to linux, so please try to give directions or answers in a way that I will be able to understand if possible. Thank you for your time.

    10 a 1 of Firefox is an older version (Aurora/Nightly) alpha.

    Is this a version that you have installed yourself from the Mozilla server or is this a version from the repositories of Ubuntu?

    In the latter case, you will need to use the installation and remove the item from your Linux distribution software.

    If you have installed Firefox yourself, then you can simply delete the Firefox installation directory.

    You can find the latest version of Firefox in all languages and for all systems operating here:
