is mindad legitimate media, I get a persistent pop-up that wants me to update java?
I continually get a window of Mindad Media that wants me to update Java. Is - is this legitimate?
Hello TurtleBay, this looks like a problem caused by adware on your pc.
Please go to firefox > addons > extensions & Delete "better surf Plus 1.1 ' from there.
also go to Control Panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

But as soon as I clicked the solution worked and Mr. Fixit was gone, the yellow shield came back and said that I have to update these once again.Thanks for the article. The icon stopped appearing after the third time I've updated from Windows. Someone must have solved the problem to Microsoft. I did nothing except reboot several times.

Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

I went to pick up a drug on my Google browser and received several alerts to attack Windows. I ran my own Avast and Malwarebytes programs and got rid of some bugs. But now I get Antivirus XP alerts that tell me I'm being attacked. I can't get down them, they reappear. I restarted my security system, and they say that everything is fine. Finally, I checked the Windows security and they simply does not have security, I have to buy it and it is connected to the Windows Explorer and I don't use that, I use FoxFire. In addition, I HAVE my own security programs. But no matter how many times I hit the X button or say NO I don't want the protection of the pop ups continue and the small icons in the menu bar lower will not disappear. How can I get rid of this? I know there were things going on between Windows and Google and Facebook and other things. What is screwing up my computer?
These fake antivirus programs can be difficult to remove... There are security experts forums that can guide you, but if you want to try self help, here is a guide on a reputable site: How to remove XP Security Tool 2010, XP Pro Defender and Vista Security Tool 2010 (uninstall Guide).

I do not trust the pop-up that wants to connect get the latest updates
My password has been published on the internet and I had to change it. Now, I want to get the latest updates to Windows Live parental controls but I do not trust the pop up enough to give my new password. Security Essentials says my own PC.
This pop-up continues to appear in my children's accounts and asked me to sign. It is getting more and more insistent and more frequent then put it in the background while we finish what we're doing.
How can I get the updates without having to connect through the pop up? I was hoping that I could do it here.
Hello
Sometimes, Family Safety application password of the parent for the latest updates. Family safety works with your account, so he needs the appropriate credentials to work properly.
If the parental control invites you to ask you for the account and the password, please enter it for the latest updates in the parental control settings would be synchronized on your computer.
Note: You can manually get updates for the safety of the family of
update of the filter of parental control so that the changes will be reflected on the computer. To do this, please see the article below:

When I download a wmv on an internet site and then play through the Player Windows Media, I get the audio but the video is just a green screen Uni. I was told that the media player can miss a card.
Hello
1. what operating system is installed on the computer?
2. are you able to play videos other than video .wmv successfully?
3. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?Method 1
I suggest you to check if the hardware acceleration of the display device setting is too high.
a. Click Start, click Run, type desk.cpl and then click OK.b. click on the settings tab and then click Advanced.
c. click the Troubleshooting tab, and then move the hardware acceleration to none.
d. click on apply and then click OK twice.
e. If the problem is resolved after you move the slider hardware acceleration to none, contact the manufacturer of the graphics adapter driver to determine if there is an update that resolves this specific problem.
Method 2
The required codec is missing or damaged. If the problem occurs when you use a .wmv file, download or reinstall the latest version of Windows Media Player. If you use an earlier version of Windows Media Player, upgrade to the current version of Windows Media Player for your operating system.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Windows-Media-PlayerIf the problem occurs when you use a different format of video file, for example a .mpeg file or an .avi file, download or reinstall the appropriate third-party codec.

Windows media player gets stuck in video but audio continues
The video freezes randomly and sometimes the program stops responding for a few seconds. For some reason any audio works fine however. I've had these files on my computer for awhile now and they never have it so far.
Hi Shelby Reyes,
Welcome to the Microsoft community. I understand that windows media player gets stuck in video but audio continues very well. I'll help you with this problem.
1. What is the brand and model of the computer?
2. have you made changes on the computer recently?
3. what security software is installed on the computer?
4. how much free space is available on the hard disk?
Method 1.
Try to use the Troubleshoot utility to see if that solves the problem.
a. open the troubleshooting Windows Media Player settings Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.
(b) in the search box, type "Troubleshooting" and then click Troubleshooting.
c. click on show alland then click the Windows Media Player settings.
Method 2.
A clean boot to test if any element of service or third party application startup is causing this issue.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: Once you have finished troubleshooting, follow step 3 in the article to start on normal startup.
Method 3.
You can update the video card driver and check.
Update drivers: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Update-drivers-recommended-links
Method 4.
I suggest that you can exercise SFC scan and check if that helps. The SFC/SCANNOW command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
For more information how to make SFC / scan, please follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
I hope this helps.
