May have been wrong to accept the false update yesterday 08/20/11 How can I determine if false update has been installed?

I was working today on our old XP, Firefox update failed because it was a trick. Yesterday a Firefox updated was approved on our laptop (Vista). How know if we ourselves have infected? Thank you.

Do not worry. The message "something tried to trick Firefox" is just poorly written. This simply means that Firefox did not verify the certificate of the update and as a result has not installed. Other discussions on this message seem to suggest that this happens quite often and is not, in fact, an indication of "something try to trick Firefox", but a failure of Firefox itself.

If the update has been installed on the second time, so this time that he managed to check the certificate, as well as the update is ok.

    Hey johnt92241602,

    I have checked with your account and could see that you have purchased an annual subscription for one year.

    There is no need for a serial number to activate Acrobat subscription.

    After you install Acrobat XI pro, all you need is to log in to adobe.com with your Adobe ID and password to activate the software.

  • Remote procedure call (RPC) - how can I determine if a person has been access to my system remotely? I think someone is.

    I think that my computer is accessed remotely, files and emails being read. I disabled remote access in the Services section and have also disabled Mobile Sync; I did not use one of these services.

    When I took the remote procedure call (RPC) service and open the properties, the logon tab has the section "This account" clicked, "Network Services" typed in the box and a password. I can't change anything on this tab properties. I can't disable the service or disable the 'unattached profile '. How access to this service to make changes and more importantly, how can I confirm that someone logging into my system to remote and checking e-mails, files, etc..

    After you have installed the XP SP3.

    How can I fix this error.

    Media Center worked fine until I installed SP3.

    Hello

    I imagine the inconvenience that you have experienced, but don't worry, we are here to help solve the problem and guide you in the right direction.

    Ehshell.exe is a Windows system file that is used to run Microsoft Media Center. It is not a critical system file. However, the ehshell.exe file can become infected and cause errors trying to run certain programs. If the ehshell.exe is absent, it can also cause errors. Reinstall a clean copy of ehshell.exe with the Microsoft System Restore.

    (a) click on the "Start" menu, then click on "programs". Scroll down and click on "Accessories," then "system tools." Click "System Restore."

    (b) click on 'Next' in the system restore window to view a list of points of restoration which has been archived.

    (c) select a restore point created before the ehshell.exe file becomes corrupt or got deleted. If no restore point until this time is listed, click on "Show restore points more" to select the one that is before this date. Click 'Next' to choose which restore point.

    (d) click on 'Finish' to start the system restore. The computer will restart once the process is complete and the ehshell.exe file is reinstalled.

    If the problem persists, follow these steps:

    You try to run the following commands to re-register all Media Center services:

    (a) close Media Center

    (b) click on the start menu, choose run and type cmd , and then press ENTER.

    (c) in the command prompt, run the following commands to type (or copy/paste) the one at a time and press on enter:

    · Regsvr32.exe atl.dl

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehl Sched /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehSched/service

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr/service

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe/regserver

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehmsas.exe /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehmsas.exe/regserver

    · Restart the Media Center

    Hope this helps and let us know if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help you.
