• Works with Windows XP SP2 with IE8. A Norton 360 process ccSvcHst.exe CPU consumption. Upgraded to version 4.0.__Now IE8 Norton is very unstable, different processes consuming CPU even with turned off Norton. __

  I opened a folder support with Norton a couple of days, for a problem with ccSvcHst.exe cripling process my system by consuming my CPU.  I found that it was a common problem, and so I wanted Norton to solve.  Their guy accesed my remote system support and made a few changes to my configuration utility and my registry files and then upgraded my version of their latest version 4.0

  After the end of the support session, I finally restarted my system and encountered an error on my configuration utility being in a State of diagnosis, then that I should put it in a normal mode and restart again.  I noticed that it had disabled the start of my services.  I selected a normal startup and restarted.

  The problem with ccSvcHst.exe consuming my CPU is now resolved - be replaced by different processes consuming my CPU and use of extremely heavy memory (or misuse).  Faulty processes are mostly explorer.exe and iexplore.exe.  Not only that, but this current problem exists even when I turn off Norton.  I tried you connecting another deal with them, but they will not address the issue, since the problem (now) exist even without Norton running.  So, basically, they made the problem worse and then pushed him on Microsoft to resolve the issue.  It's really nice...

  Anyone have any ideas?

  It seems that your computer is infected. I get this from the fact that iexplore.exe (Internet Explorer) is running. If you haven't started IE yourself, then it is a clear symptom of malware infection.

• Optimize/defragment memory?

  Hi, have just bought the Sansa Fuze 8 GB (great bit o ' kit!) Am running windows XP, using windows media player using the MP3 format and MTP mode.
  My question is I've seen deleted a lot of tracks from different CDs, I loaded to the device, I wonder - is it necessary to defragment the memory to optimize the gaps in that causing?
  I tried to use my pc Defragmenter but cannot access a memory of the rocket with my Defragmenter.
  Is it possible to optimize the memory at all or or is the "rocket" optimize its self when titles are deleted?
  Thanks in advance.
  Kind regards
  Youric.

  Flash memory, being solid state, takes up no more access to scattered areas he done for access areas. It may be possible to defragment but it is completely useless. In fact, I think I read that it would do more harm than good. Flash memory has a limited number of writes per sector (but the number is still quite important), so defragmentation "wears" the faster memory.

  The Vista defrag works quietly in the background without intervention on your part

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/942092

  In Windows Vista, there are a lot of improvements in the defrag engine and handling of fragmentation. By default, Windows Vista uses Task Scheduler to automatically keep the defragmented hard drive. This Automatic defragmentation does not affect the performance of the Windows Vista operating system...

  If you want to use a much better defragmentation program which is free and where you can see the results, I suggest this one:

• After the last automatic update, I lost the Norton since Firefox toolbar.

  In order to have a Norton ID Safe operation, I use Firefox ESR 38.4.0 with a stand-alone version of Norton Security Toolbar 2014.7.11.35.  I locked update of Firefox and Norton in the registry, in group policy, and in the settings options programs. Everything worked fine with MS Security Essentials and firewall Windows on Max Windows Update settings is set to "check for updates but let me decide what and when to download and install."

  Everything was going well until I've manually updated Windows.  I put the info on each update of the changes likely to modify the parameters of Norton or Firefox or add telemetrics.  Once installed 37 required and optional updates, I found that I lost Norton Security toolbar. It has been marked as incompatible in Add-ons, and the Norton toolbar has been removed from the browser. Even the Norton toolbar menu option has been removed in Firefox menu display drop-down. I broke compatibility with no result.

  I had to uninstall Firefox and Norton Toolbar, restore Windows to upgrade and re - install Firefox and Norton.

  What updates issued since 07/02/2016 would have caused all this chaos?  I can't update Windows or Windows Security Essentials until I reduce some update or updates causes this problem.

  (Updated everything and running without typing Norton Safe ID auto are not an option.)

  Thank you advance.

  Hello

  Due to changes in Firefox, it must redraw Identity Safe Norton Identity Safe is not yet compatible with the latest version of Firefox.

• Backup Optimization doesn't work not as expected!

  Hello

  Oracle: 11.2.0.3

  O / s: OEL 5.4 32-bit

  Here's my configuration of RMAN

  

  So even if backup optimization is enabled, why every time I take runs a command 'backup database', as always backup all data files.

  This is a database of test on VM, kind of data aren't really change on all areas of storage.

  Not sure why RMAN is not jump data files while performing the backup?

  -Learner

  OPTIMIZATION will only jump data files that have absolutely no change since the last backup - that is to say reading only datafiles.

• Delete Pages, size of the file, PDF Optimizer Clean Up

  Using Acrobat 9 Pro (for Windows, if that makes a difference).

  I have a page 148 PDF of a magazine, about 58 MB in size.

  I deleted 40 pages of ads, leaving just the useful content.

  The size of the file is always about 58 MB.

  When I run advanced-> optimization PDF

  the file size down to about 47 MB.

  The optimizer settings don't seem to matter.

  Even with just 'Clean Up' selected, all options unchecked,

  and Compression, the value 'Leave unchanged Compression'

  the file size is further reduced.

  I tried several other publishers of PDF with tools,

  and none of them reduce the size of the file after you remove the 40 pages

  even using their functions 'optimize' or 'compress '.

  Can someone explain why deleting pages does not reduce the size of the file

  and that fact optimizer (who do not have other tools)

  to reduce the size of the file?

  Thank you

  -Glenn

  Space of audit indicates that more than 99% of the content is images.

  Save As works in the same way as Save (no change of size of original file).

  However, Document-> reduce file size works even better than optimization PDF.

  Reducing the file size to about 15 MB!

  What extra stuff does reduce the file size?

• How to prevent the corruption of Photoshop after optimization of hard drive Mac?

  I run CS3 on a MacPro running OS 10.4.11. I defragment files, repair permissions & optimize hard disk every month by car or using TechTool Pro v.5.0.2. Each time, after the print is completely biased, usually with severe color changes. It is independent of the used paper. B & W is not affected. After a lot of sweat, including reinstallation of printer drivers, check out my custom profiles, & consultation with experts from the printer (here in New Zealand) I have established that CS3 communication with my Epson 3800 printer is corrupt, by printing using the option "Printer manages color" in the printer driver - none of the changes. The only way that I could find is a complete reinstallation of the CS3, a pain, that's an understatement. Someone at - it else experienced this & could prevent that from happening?

  It depends on.

  Those of us who work with large files can benefit a periodic defragmentation. OS X auto - defragments the files under 20MB. How many of us have our files under 20 MB?

• The incognito Firefox 20.0 holds connections

  Prior to Firefox 20.0, you must click on 'Start private browsing' (I don't remember the exact wording) and for example, to connect to Site X. When you were done, you must click on "Stop Private Browsing." Later in the day, you click on 'Start private browsing' and go to the Site X. Site X would not show you logged in.

  This is no longer the case.

  In Firefox 20.0, you click on 'New private window' and connect on the Site X. When you are finished, click Close (x). Later in the day, you click on 'New private window' and go to the Site X. Site X still shows you connected from the previous session.

  So "private browsing" is not really private.

  The only way to ensure that this does not happen if you go to file > output but who stops everything, including non-private browsing.

  I just managed to solve this problem, but I do not know why he has solved.

  Installed Firefox without add-on to display and 11. Tried to install Autofill Forms and I get the message "there was an error to install AutoFill Forms. Try Again"even for any other add-on.

Do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or Firefox 11 on my other computers. Just this one. An earlier version of Firefox plugins appears, but not no matter what Add-ons.

  It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

• ICloud photo library - double images and memory iPhone 5 c problem

  Hello

  After months of deliberation, I decided to convert my Aperture on Mac in photo library and link the family three iPads and my iPhone to iCloud photos. I made sure all software updates have been installed on all devices, including the Mac. After 22 days of continuous download, I have now all the pictures in the clouds!

  However I have 2 problems. My 30 k + original images expanded to 40 k + with thousands of duplicates and my iPhone 5 c memory (8 GB - what a mistake!) is now full and I cannot take photos more or update applications on it. I guess that duplicates are albums on iPads.

  Before I converted, I checked and the documentation stated that the Photos would be recognition of duplicates and not replicate in the cloud. I also checked the box to optimize the images on my iPad and iPhone not realizing that even with the optimization of the paltry memory on the 5 c would be totally inadequate - the iPad is very good.

  Now I have more documented and install PhotoSweeper on the Mac seems a possible solution to the problem in double - the alternative is to go through each image!

  Re the problem of the iPhone, the only solution I see is to stop the iCloud photo library on the phone and then remove the images on the phone. Who will free the memory, and I will then be able to take pictures I have to take pictures by other means. It's not ideal for a functioning flawlessly, but when my contract is up this summer the next phone will be a greater amount of memory and hope it will be seamless!

  Any advice please before going further?

  Photo Sweeper is a good package and works well and is course - so are duplicate Annihilator for Photos and PowerPhotos

  You could try turning off ICPL on the small phone, cleaning of duplicates and leaving all s = complete uploads and downloads and stabilize and they new the on with photos on the iPhone - optimized it can handle then - worth a try

• flashing screen unable to do anything else apart from CTRL + ALT + DELETE 8.1 windows

  This morning, Toshiba Satellite C55 - starts ok. signs to ok. but the next screen blinks and the hourglass is NOT (circle thing) swirling around. Stops flashing for about 15 seconds and start again. The only thing I can do is CTRL ALT DEL any help or ideas would be welcome.

  In response to my post from 08:13 today. Have tried various ways one seen on the web many points. It is a common problem caused by many things according to what I read on the web. So I took my laptop to PC World and they told me that the flashing is caused by Norton. Basically, a clash of downloads from Microsoft that was huge yesterday evening and Norton do not receive the patch of security right in place beforehand. I know the result when I pick up my laptop. If I was more computer savvy I couldn't do it myself. I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
