Microsoft requires users with an update of the Microsoft awareness?

Received a call today.  She asked me to do an update on my computer to clear error messages.  Caller ID was 'UNKNOWN' and had 223-658-6396.  Female Indian sounding.  Sounded strange that Microsoft would do this without informing clients on the internet.

It's a scam.

Microsoft does not call users.

  • Problem with Windows Update after the new installation of Windows 7 Pro the Lenovo ThinkPad X 200

    I'm trying to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. The product key is easy to find on the sticker of the ThinkPad. However, the version of Windows is hidden (for example, I can't check that my ThinkPad had originally installed Windows 7 Pro). I was able to install by using a Pro Win 7 SP1 CD ROM I bought for another installation. I used the ThinkPad I was trying to make the new facility on the product key. I was able to activate the Windows 7 Pro using the phone call and my cell phone. I checked the activation! However, I have problems with Windows update. The product key may be a different version of Windows 7. If so, why did it install and activate OK? Y at - it a fix for this problem or I have to buy a new version of Windows 7 Pro? Please note that I have not yet installed all drivers Lenovo ThinkPad as I can't seem to install correctly. Thank you!

    Since the issue is updated to Windows, it is not a product number key.

  • Why show black screen for some of my users with a view to the horizon?

    Hello

    I installed horizon view 6.0. now, I just have a problem sometimes some of my users connect to their desktop with vmware view client horizon just see a black screen and cannot do everything even when I'm this office openconsole in vsphere client no show and a black screen for solve the problem I have to restart this desktop computer and its not ok how can I prevent black screen

    As often occurs when the wrong VGA driver is installed.  This occurs when the view Agent is installed on the desktop, and then the VMware Tools is updated after the fact.  The result is the driver included with the Agent to view VGA is replaced with the VGA driver in VMware Tools.  You can see some advantages to the relocation of the Agent of the view, or update the VMware Tools and then install the Agent from the view.

  • User with multiple rights to the pool, opens a session automatically on a specific pool

    I have a user with 2 + benefits pool - when it connects to a zero client, it is automatically connected to a desktop computer in one of the pools (let's call it 'Pool-A'), rather than receive a selection of pool screen.  If it is deleted from the Active Directory the right to 'Pool-A' group, then it is presented with the selection of normal pool screen.  As soon as it is added to the Active Directory group, his account is automatically connection to a desktop 'Pool-a' again.  What would cause this?  Other users the right to several pools (including a ' pool-A') receive pool selection screen, as I know that it is only this account of a user who is almost like an account of "kiosk".

    Any ideas or things to check? I already checked the connection's server/pool tags...

  • Problem with Windows update during the installation of the printer

    I tried several times to install an older printer to the Epson (Stylus Photo 925) on a computer running Windows XP Professional.  When I get to the part of the installation where I select the printer from a list in Windows this printer is not available, so I chose to Windows Update the list.  I've done several times, and the list of Epson printers is actually reduced after selecting the 'Windows Update' button.  Its unusual because a few weeks ago, I did the same configuration for a new machine of Windows 7 and Windows Update added this printer to the list.

    I should add that my printer is on a print server if the installation is a bit more detailed than just plugged in the USB cable and installation.

  • Date column updated with trigger update of the geometry

    Hello

    I have a column named "GEO_MOD_DATE" which is supposed to be updated every time that my geometry column is updated. My trigger code is below. Currently the trigger is fired when other than my column of geometry columns are updated. I searched the forum and many other sites. As far as I know, my trigger is written correctly. But I can't understand why it is taken when the columns except my geometry column are updated. You have any ideas? Thanks in advance! Note that the trigger fires when I update the geometry column. However, it is also SHOOTING when the other columns are updated. I have also tried adding 'OF GDO_GEOMETRY' from "BEFORE UPDATE" paragraph and which did not help.

    Yes. But what does this mean for the SDO_GEOMETRY objects is that you cannot directly use a WHEN clause in the definition of the trigger and you cannot compare two geometries directly via If (: old.geom =: new.geom) then.

    So, in your trigger update of your business rules conditions require the trigger to implement are not enough.

    These Smart Update programs work very well if I'm connected to Dial-up but not wireless.

    I checked my Norton Firewall settings - doesn't seem to be an indication of a problem here.
    I disabled my firewall program - no change.
    I tried the drivers updated - no change.
    I uninstalled the other software spy/advertising programs and checked my registry - no change.

    My Internet is fine - I can always check email and browse websites - just the Smart Update function seems to be affected.

    Any suggestions?

    Concerning

    Hello

    The wireless internet connection seems to be ok if you can access the Web sites.
    So I think that the problem must be installed software or application.

    You use Norton 360?

    Had to do a restoration complete my xp machine and will not update, in the past, system automatically updated with cartridges of siema etc service?

    What is happening, it is that it is so more the possibility of a user friendly hands on automatic update of Windows XP from a clean install.  Windows Update will NOT synchronize with and updated in the current order status to update a machine with a clean install of XP, but you separately download some patches and intermediate updates and apply them manually, to have a machine that connects a bit normally with Windows Update.

    Install the last update cumulative security for the version of Internet Explorer you have currently is essential, and you need to download separately and install it before going any further.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2888505

    Scroll to the information file for XP and Server 2003

    Download the file corresponding to your version of Internet Explorer and install first.

    It is also highly recommended that you install Firefox because IE8 is limited, probably compromised and sometimes useless and will crash on many sites, including Microsoft sites, including linked just above.

  • Impressive transformation slow due to the updating of the user interface

    Hello

    I feel a huge slow down in my test as engine

    I update the display after each test. It consists of a rather

    "simple table" with a subtle change of color and bold

    to indicate the failure or success of the test:

    I have also tried several things to determine what routine was

    make the program almost crawling like a snail, here's my

    results:

    No UI refresh: 0m48s (same as Teststand with no updates of the user interface)

    The discount but no page table switch: 1m06s

    Bay of refreshment and switch page: 1m26s

    There are 314 tests, up to 314 redraw and possibly

    switch page 314 to reposition the view. Which gives the

    following user interface refresh costs:

    Update of the table: 18 years/314 = 57ms (replacing just a single line, Center to top)

    Switch to page: 20 s/314 = 64ms (bottom right corner)

    Is this really the case? Is there a way to make the refresh of the user interface

    faster? Create two separate loops/threads, one to make

    the test, one for updating the UI asynchronously?

    I understood for an overall picture about different

    widgets, but here I'm 'just' display of channels...

    David Koch

    Well, multi-listbox control is a problem if your change causes access to the muliple property node. For each property node LabVIEW normally does a refresh of the user interface which is very quickly. Fortunately, there is a fairly easy way to fix this.

    Use a node of property for the current VI (just drop a property node and change its class type VI Server-> VI reference) to get the reference of the Panel. Then use another property node connected to your reference of the Panel and select update from the Panel to postpone. Set this value to true before your Listbox (and any other updated user interface) and set the value to false then.
