IMSG hacked account, sending a lot of international text in current bill
So yesterday my pirate apple account (connected from a unknown macbook) and I noticed someone was frantically sends many messages from my phone, images which got also sent as normal text to an international number. After noticing, I quickly changed password. Checked my mobile BT phone bill, and he had already executed a bill for all these messages sent to international numbers. The appeal of BT until you see what they can do and they just said, you will have to pay for the Bill and that was that.
What to do about this? my password was normally good security level and don't even know how he hacked. How would stop it doesn't happen because it looks just like any time I could just be landed with a massive Bill. Fortunately, I noticed pretty quickly this time, so the Bill does not accumulate to something that would be unfeasible. But with the telephone companies want to help at all, it seems extremely unfair!

How can I transfer my existing downloaded files in my Adobe SendNow Adobe account send?
Unfortunately, there is no simple way to transfer your SendNow files to send. You will need to download them from SendNow and download them from Adobe send. Note that only files can be downloaded. The history of tracking, or any other information that sent you, cannot.

I had trouble with Thunderbird, I so re-installed. (Version 38.2.0) I use TB for years, usually with no problems. But this time, after re - install, when I "answer" text of the sender is in plain ASCII text format, regardless of the settings. And plain text is bright blue!
I want to preserve the HTML format (usual) of e-mail of the sender when I answer. My settings specify the HTML format.
I don't want to use TB with this "disability" - help! Thank you!
I don't see where you checked the compositions and the addressing of adjustment to your account. For all accounts also.

I am unable to send attachments in outlook express. HTML is selected and is therefore 'send pictures' recipient receives the text but not images?
All security settings seem fine, an idea?Some messages do not conform to the standards of the Internet in the sense that they cannot be returned intact by their transmission. The way around this is to use Message | Until the attachment, then they will be properly transmitted, since they will be attached.

Passport for blackBerry cannot send or receive pictures via text
Just received my passport and cannot send or receive pictures via text messages... Tried rebooting, and at that time there the image I try to send a text says "interrupted by restart send" even if the consignment was at least an hour earlier... Frustrated...
In respect of the advance...
Send the text must be sms unless you plan to send messages of msm.
Also the title of advance, to informed AFN and MMSC URL
Without these two informed it will not work.

Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your password by e-mail.
It is possible for a person to send the email that 'seems' to be of your
account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone
who receives the e-mails to check the header to see where he is actually sent by and

If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to

resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
cause.No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy

its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one

Recently, I went through a very trying time because I could not use my hotmail account and has been accused of being a spammer. I'm not a spammer - trust me. After proving that I am who I said I was, I was able to go back to the account. Now that I'm back with my account, I get a number of spam and they are with my email account name. Most of the emails have a short message with about seven numbers behind the message. Is there some way one can prevent someone to use an e-mail address? Or y at - there a lot of accounts using the same name, but with different passwords? Thank you.

The hacked account-related questions
I have an account in NASCAR & a message from the web page comes up & tells me that my account has been hacked. I click on OK or a red X in the upper right corner of the message & goes on the site of pirates, I suppose. I need to know what to do. I can't go on my other browser on this p / & I don't seem to have any problems.
What I did on secondary browser to this Web site has been to change my password. I managed, but I can't always on my account on browser I.E. 9 without the hack message arise. What could I do?
Please reset your browser to factory settings.
And then do a scan with Malwarebytes and Antivirus.

sending multiple emails, quickly and individually
in Windows Mail, I want to transmit about 500 mails to my friend, but by sending them an aura forever.
is it possible to select/highlight a lot and pass so that they arrive as individual emails... and not just an email
Thank you
Douglas
Not exactly. The function forward as attachment however will allow you to send multiple emails at the same time to the same recipient. You can drag several composition of messages in the message list window in a message. Your email Service provider will probably set a limit to the number of attachments that can have a single message.
