I have an unknown icon and warning popping up.
I have a unknown window popping up all the time on my iMac (image below). It is said:
929 issues found!
Questions may be on the duplicate files, System & unwanted internet, recoverable unauthorized software & disk space. Difficulty and enjoy a performance gain.
I'm a little dubious of this warning. The language seems just offshore, but maybe I'm too sensitive. Does anyone know if it comes with a legitimate warning? If it's something that should be avoided, does anyone know how to make it stop?
Thank you very much!
Andy
You are right to be doubtful. It's a scam. Force Quit Safari then reboot by holding down the SHIFT key. If that is not clear it is then try to run MalwareBytes. Malwarebytes was developed by one of our colleagues here to ASC. He received rave reviews and is on the more proven anti-malware for Mac software.

I have an unknown account and an unknown contact. How can I go to find out who they belong to?
Original title: unknown account
You can use the ProfileList registry to identify the SIDS of the users.
To access the registry, go to a command to run.
Press the Windows and R. Then type: regedit.1. go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
2. under the ProfileList key, you will see the SID. By selecting each individually, you can look at the entry and see what user name is associated with this particular SID. It will be in the right pane.
Note: The SID to a combination of profiles is reserved for the profiles on the local computer based. If a user is referring to a 'server' extension .usr or .man profile in the User Manager for domains that they will not be in this area of the registry to associate the username in SID.
If the account is not used, you can delete the registry. Don't forget to back up the registry before making any changes, as they will be permanent.
Let us know if that helps.

How can I remove proscan and warning pop ups
whenever I boot, ihave to fight through proscan and security pop ups
If you don't like the proscan popups, uninstall proscan. Where did you find proscan (website)? The name exactly does not inspire confidence, that is not itself malware. Most of the applications "speed up your computer" not to sell anything, or instead while trying to you something else that will do "even better".
What exactly you see? Remember, we do not see your monitor, you will need to describe it in some detail.
Don't paraphrase error messages.
Often the pop-ups 'Security' are the result of malware, it is therefore important for you to explain what application gives to these messages and what the messages say.

Guess the question covers. I use Firefox on Windows 10 41.0.2.
For problems with the file places.sqlite (bookmarks, historical) database, you can check in the Firefox profile folder.
If the extension of Maintenance of places cannot repair the database places.sqlite file remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to rebuild the database places.sqlite latest JSON Firefox backup in the folder bookmarkbackups.

Hello
You did changes to the computer before the show?
Method 1
I suggest you try the steps from the following link:When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950505Note: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article: back up the registry in Windows 7
Method 2
The issue could be due to the virus on the computer. I suggest you run virus scanner online by using the Microsoft safety scanner.Microsoft safety scanner

when you do an antivirus online, you will lose data that are affected by the virus. Microsoft is not responsible for the loss of this data. -

G3 430: 430 G3 wireless button and unknown hit-and-run driver
Hey guys,.
I have a problem with an HP 430 G3, I acquired. I see that I have a unknown hit-and-run driver (ACPI\HPQ6007) and also Simple PCI communications controller (PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_9D3A & SUBSYS_80FF103C & REV_21). If someone could help find me these drivers that would be much appreciated.
Another question, I guess, it's to do with missing drivers is that the wireless button does not seem to be fuctioning. It's just stuck on the orange light and when I press nothing happens.
Thank you for your help in advance.
-Power supply
You are the very welcome.
See if this hotkey software allows you to do.
The case and the wireless works, unfortunately I do not know how to get this to work.
Normally if the driver for the wireless card is installed, which allows you to turn the wireless on and off using the button (or Fn key).

I am running windows vista and am trying to install Adobe Reader.
My internet programs explore and the printer have changed the icon and the programs trying to open with adobe instead of their exe. If I delete then adobe, they work fine...Hi dabrown52,
You can check out the following link and try the suggestions posted by Linney MVP on Friday, January 29, 2010 19:03 and check if it helps.
If the problem persists, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling adobe.
You can try to uninstall all older versions, Adobe Acrobat , and see if the problem is resolved. Uninstall earlier versions of the application and then install the version you want. If multiple versions of Adobe Reader are installed on the system, remove all versions and install only one version.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. click on Start, type Appwiz.cpl in the Start Search box, and then click Appwiz.cpl in the list of found files.
2. double-click on the version of Acrobat or reader you want to uninstall.
3. click on Yes if you are prompted to confirm that you want to uninstall the program.
Note If you are prompted to confirm that you want to run the program, click on allow.
4. click Yes to restart the computer.For more information, please visit the following links:
