is password popup - phishing?

I get popups - after I switched to OS X El Capitan. They do not disappear and ask my Keychain password. Cancel or by clicking OK (without filling out the password, of course) does not go away. I fear that it is not legitimate, because the icons seem a bit blurry and the? the button does not work. It seems that is not Apple. Any suggestions?

It's probably a scam.

  • Disable the master password popup

    Hi, this has always been a problem with FF. I share my PC. My partner has a master password. I don't. However whenever I use Firefox asks me the master password, and this repeats (times) everytime I open a tab for a site on which a defined password there. I have my own accounts and know my passwords. I don't want a master password and do not want to access its accounts. How can I cancel the application of the MP and just use firefox withouth the face with that annoying Member pop - up every few minutes! Its driving me crazy. Please save me. Thank you

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    == to always

    The only way to avoid the pop-up master password if you use two (all) the same profile is to disable the password manager.
    Tools > Options > Security: passwords: "remember passwords for sites".
    ---
    You must create a separate profile for each of you.

    See:
    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile ('Shortcut on the desktop')
    ---
    If you need to have several open profiles at the same time then start the following instances with the - no - remote line switch.
    You can send links from other programs to an instance of Firefox is launched with a - no.-remote, you must drag the links in a Firefox window in such cases.

  • "Enter network password" popup will not stop appearing, how to stop this? Outlook 2007 audit has aol.

    OK, I know that this question was asked before here and other places, but I tried a lot of things and still cannot get him to stop.

    I use Outlook 2007 to access my aol e-mail account. Until recently it has been works well with none or very few problems. All of a sudden this week, the window 'Enter network password' guard chronically arise with all fields filled already, but you will need to click ok to remove. This happens once in a blue moon in the past, maybe once every 3 weeks to a month and then happen not for awhile. But from this week, it occurs once every 5 minutes about an hour every day. (Has happened twice since I started typing this so far.) This is incredibly annoying doesn't even begin to describe. For more far to annoy me, I have a rule to configure in Outlook where some emails get sent to my work address while I'm not home and when this box appears here at home while I'm at work, nothing doesn't get passed, nothing happens anywhere because I'm not here to click ok in the darn box!
    OK, to cut to the Chase, I have Windows XP with Outlook 2007 here, and I checked my aol email. All parameters have been controlled and tested and is exactly the same as when it was working fine. Other things that can help to know, I have McAfee Antivirus on the computer and the router wireless Belkin F5D8235-4 low. I had McAfee antivirus for many years without any problems and I got the router hooked ever since November 2009 with no problems until now that is.
    Here is what I tried so far, all have not helped at all: (I thought that I would tell you which has been tried and didn't work, so we don't waste time on them).
    1 has created a new Outlook profile. Did not stop the pop ups.
    2 Ran Outlook in safe mode for non-Microsoft services would not be executed. Did not stop the pop ups.
    3. saved registry and the information of the user account deleted from the options of password subkey, and then reinstated "Protected Storage System Provider. Did not stop the pop ups.
    4. disabled in McAfee messaging protection. Did not stop the pop ups. (Just got a new one! Ugh.)
    5 Rebooted/Restarted router. Did not stop the pop ups.
    I'm currently at the "I got Nothin'" point about what should be judged then.
    Anyone has any idea what this might be outside what I already tried?
    I am altogether strung here and it drives me crazy. Anyone have any ideas?
    Jim.

    Update for me.
    Because I changed my e-mail verification of the intervals of 5-10 minutes, there was a considerable improvement in this issue. For a while it has virtually disappeared, it was like the good old days when it happened almost never.
    A few week days last the problem returned with a vengeance, as bad as when it reached its maximum when I started this thread. But I went on google and found a lot of internet chatter, suggesting that it seems to be a question of aol - across the network to an end, given that many people in the country had the same problems. So, it looks that I have would have been doing the pop-ups regardless.
    It seems that to subject the week last, aol themselves have had major problems to their e-mail systems based on internet comments there from other customers, so by doing this problem much more difficult to solve since now you know exactly what is the first cause pop-ups until aol gets their end of it solved. I can certainly tell you that raise the time intervals to send/receive 5 to 10 minutes doesn't seem to go very far to solve problems with pop-ups. Even though I'm still trying, here and there, I think that those that I received lately have been due to problems at AOL more so than mine, based on reviews other aol users. I hope that I may be at the end of the tunnel on this subject but thanks to what is happening to their end (aol), I can't say for sure yet. I'll keep you posted.

  • Password main popup appears, but it is not necessary.

    Update Windows 10. Suddenly, in Firefox, master password popup appears whenever a connection is required. Pop-up can be removed by clicking on the cross without entering a password. However, logon passwords are still remembered and still work, without going into the master.

    Check the security setting, and Yes, the master password is now set. It has not been set before. If it is set, but probably without a password. Can it be disarmed without losing all previous passwords remembers?

    Try it and see.

    Bookmarks and history module places behind Firefox.

    Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on, then press the Options button.

  • Firefox remembered passwords for all sites

    Firefox is not always open a popup "save this password". In this case even if I enter the correct connection details and her memorize this password box it does not remember the connection. The next time I have Connection Manager password fields are empty and remember the box is not checked. I checked with the webmaster site and they do not disable save password information.

    I've read all the Tips FAQ on this and followed closely.

    History settings are customized
    Always use private browsing is NOT selected
    Remember my browsing and download history is selected
    Don't forget the history of search and shape is selected
    Accept cookies from sites is selected (always, without exception)
    Clear history of Firefox closing is selected (saved passwords, site preferences and off web site data are not selected to be erased)

    Circumstances in which Firefox will not offer a memorize this password popup and fail to store information in the password manager?

  • Firefox don't remember my password.

    Firefox will not remember my passwords, popup box does not appear. I checked my settings, but I can't hang on the passwords of websites "Remember" - definition, it has a light grey color. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Maybe you accidentally turn off the pop up box? Try to go to Firefox and then click on the menu and click on Prefrenences (Linux, Mac) or Options (Windows)
    Click Security, and then make sure that the box saying remember passwords for sites is checked. If this is not the case, click on the box. If the box is grayed out, go to settings of privacy and of course she says "Firefox will remember the story. If not, click on it and click on "do not forget history."

  • I want to prevent the use of the login and password of CentOS 6.5 to the shared folder Windows 7

    Recently, I lost my hard drive Windows 7 Pro to crash and had to rebuild the laptop from scratch. I have set up the laptop to share files on the local network with XP, Vista, and CentOS 6.5 PC. The file sharing (without need of login/password) with all PC work with one exception.

    When you use the 'of' the CentOS PC file manager to access the shared folder on Windows 7, I am invited with login/domain/password popup box. I enter the credentials and everything works well. And I have to do it once. The same user name exists on all PCs. But I think the connections via file sharing simply under "guest" or "annonimus. The race of Samba (SMB) of the computer of CentOS version is version 3.6.9. I have tried so many combinations of solutions and none seem to work. See the list below:

    Windows:
    Edit local security policies
    Remove the TransportBindName (then add back)
    Set UseNewSmb = 0, then returns to 1

    Samba:
    security = share and then I tried security = user
    client NTLMv2 auth = Yes and return to no.
    NTLM auth = none and return to Yes

    I am hoping there is a configuration that will prvent the annoying popup login/password.

    It seems that my problem has been solved (for me at least). Discovered by searching for another detachment of TechNet
    Listed below are the changes. I doubt that all were required, but there still Big Bang solutions seem to always work when dealing with Microsoft operating systems, Yes?

    The registry

    1 KEY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    DATA: everyoneincludesanonymous = 1

    2 KEY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    DATA: NoLmHash = 0

    3 KEY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    DATA: LmCompatibilityLevel = 1

    4. KEY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters
    DATA: restrictnullsessaccess = 0

    In the policy editor of local security under the Security Options folder

    1. Microsoft network client: password is sent unencrypted SMB third party = active servers

    In the network sharing Center

    1. go to the advance sharing settings page

    2. Select: Activate sharing files for devices that use encryption 40 or 56-bit

    Test:

    1. reboot Windows 7

    2 reboot the Linux server

    3. open Linux Network Browser (Thunar) application

    4 navigate in the actions of Windows 7 without having to enter the login/password: success!

    Yahoo has moved some accounts between different servers as part of its new update. If you are using an old bookmark to access your mail, it can not redirect properly.

  • How to get rid of a popup offering to remember my password that appears in the upper left corner?

    Yes, this popup is annoys me no end! It appears each time I fill in a password anywhere! It is more or less said: "Do you remember this password?". first of all I didn't know what program did this, but now I know that it is Mozilla Firefox. Why so many of (and undesirable too) want to pop-up windows to 'help' when in fact what they do is irritate the person and not even identify the program. It is a parody of the worst kind! You do not?

    If anyone knows how to get rid of it forever, please let me know? Thank you very much! Adelaa

    If you want to just disable this for a specific domain, you can click the drop-down list and click "never for this site". Otherwise, you can go to the Security section of the firefox preferences (enter ' subject: preferences #security ' in the address bar) and uncheck "remember passwords for sites".
