NB200 - Notifications in the system tray area

Every few seconds I get an annoying popup notification in the system tray area that informs me of the 'blocked events' these are events all IPv4 TCP or UDP. I really want to turn off these notifications, but despite a vast internet searching I can't find out how to do this. I tried the Action Center and tried the obvious firewall settings, but nothing will stop them. I find them very boring.

I have a 12W NB200 running Windows 7 Home Prmium (a recent update from Windows 7 Starter Edition). -the problem occurs in both versions. Initially, I used installed but uninstalled McAfee security suite and am using 2009 F-secure Internet security suite for which I have a valid license.
The system is connected wireless to my BT Home hub router and is connected through the homegroup for two PC. The other two computers are connected through ethernet cables to the router and both run on Windows 7 Home Premium with Avira internet security. I don't get the pop-ups on these machines.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Which program generates alerts - are you sure its f-secure or would it be the widows firewall or mcafee? I don't know anything about f-secure (other than I couldn't find a manual 2009 on their website), but I would say that it will keep a diary of events and when you get close to the 'variant' that appears (and I expect clears) you will also find an option on the display of the event.

Re my comment about this program is-are you happy that you have removed any trace of mcafee? Have you run msconfig and looked at the services and startup for any trace tabs? Also look in the Manager of tasks for all traces: in the services tab, click description to sort and search for mcafee from the similar description in the process but I think that you would have never had 1 entry of mcafee.

I think that this should have been the first para. Have you created/modified the firewall rules? The log file must provide the ip address of the event source and which is in the range of ip addresses of your network domestic? and since you are a bt customer internet you have a bt vision pvr and who is the source?

  • Update icon is missing from the system tray

    Salvation Windows XP experts,

    My "Automatic Updates" is set on "download updates for me, but let me choose when to install them", but several times I don't get the icon in the system tray, and it is until I want to shud down my laptop when I get the message "click on disable to install important updates and turn off your computer. , and if I work on the batteries, I don't even get this message. Sometimes I change my setting "Notify Me but don't automatically download or install" hoping that icon will appear, but it's not.

    Recently, I have been informed of the 2 updates to download and agreed, but they got downloaded the icon has disappeared... and when I lock my PC, I got this message because I have new updates have been installed, I clicked on the button "turn off". I was surprised when I saw him on the screen saying 1 of 1 updates is being intalled! I pressed the power button until it exploded and then restarted, it, went into the folder Windows to know he was installing the single update, is not one of the 2 updates that I accepted on! What a f * ing system?

    What can I do to see what updates will be installed on my PC?

    Thank you

    Hello

    If I understand well, you have a little problem with the 'automatic update' - in particular with the notification in the system tray icon. The icon does not appear in the system status bar when updates are ready for instalation - does?

    There is a similar but opposite problem - system "Auto update" displays the icon in the system tray – as they may be new updates installed, but the updated window does not update after clicking on the icon in the system tray:

    http://www.eggheadcafe.com/Microsoft/Windows-Update/29682120/Automatic-Update-icon-stay-on-system-tray.aspx

    So, this has been resolved by removing the "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" directory "C:\WINDOWS" folder

    (before deletion was stopped the service "Windows update").

    What you can try:

    (1) this Fix IT (full reset Windows Update components - including registration of libraries, to rename files ...)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058/en

    2) install the latest version of the Windows Update Agent (for good communication with the WWW of Windows update server)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/949104/en

    3) only recommend - install the latest IE (IE8) (Select language)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=43

    (4) this Microsoft Genuine Advantage diagnostic (I hope that will be the pages of the SITE in English)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/genuine/diag/

    I confess that I have not read previous answers (PA bear MS MVP) in detail, it is possible that you've already tried this. However, I tried this, if I had similar problems.

  • In Windows 7, icons in the system tray / notification look area low resolution

    Here's a screenshot of my notification area / system tray (whatever it's called now) flying:

    As you can see, for some programs look systray icons very low resolution and just plain bad.
    I have reviewed the icon for the executable file of these programs and has determined that all of the resolutions of the icon is available (256 x 256, 48 x 48, 32 x 32, 24 x 24, 16 x 16).
    I tried to correct the problem by placing a custom in the program directory file app.ico.
    Nothing seems to work.
    The resolution of my monitor is correctly defined in the display settings.
    I talked to other users of W7 using the same programs and they report that the icons look very well for them.

    I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate on a Lenovo T60 with a 'landscape' theme Windows applied (IE no programs custom theme or something like that).
    As a result of this issue, maybe someone could tell me what use the resolution of the Windows icon in the system tray?
    Thank you

    in fact you don't have to restore your system, because maybe you have already lived a few weeks with the problem.

    It worked smoothly for me.

    -load a default theme
    -check the advanced appearance settings
    -compare the number of dimensions of each element with the decimal version of the 'size' on

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Appearance\New Schemes\Current SaveAll\Sizes\0 settings

    -There should be two numbers that do not match (for me were 21 on dialog appearance and 23 in the registry, twice).
    -Double-click on the registry value and write what you have on the dialog edit the data type decimal.
    -Repeat for the other incompatibilities
    -close the registry
    -Start the Task Manager
    -complete the process explorer.exe (Don't panic)
    -menu file, new task run explorer.exe
    -Close Task Manager
    -smile
    God bless you
  • All the sounds that are specifically related to the Microsoft system works not-missing the system tray volume control and Accessories Entertainment empty folder.

    I have no volume control icon in the system tray and my Accessories Entertainment folder is empty.  I can play the sound through iTunes and VLC media player but is no longer the Player Windows Media can play CDs or mp3 files.  I have more Microsoft system sounds and the sounds of a large number of online streaming sites no longer play unless I can their route via iTunes or VLC media player.  Windows Media Player says missing codecs if I try to play mp3 files.  I have upgraded to Windows Media Player 11 to see if that would bring codecs, but without any result.

    My problems were not related to the missing CODECS.

    I knew the sound on my system was basically correct, given that I was able to listen to free VLC Player I downloaded to replace the Windows Media Player while he was not working.

    However, the solution to my problem of noise was really simple, but the answer was just very complicated track.

    I noticed that a lot of the chatter about similar problems on other forums was related to Adobe Flash Player.

    I had recently upgraded to the latest versions all Adobe products on my system.  I didn't make the connection that Adobe software could affect all the sounds of Microsoft.

    Finally, after doing a Google search on Adobe Flash Player issues, I found a partial solution:

    Here's an exact quote:

    Very well, the problem is really the wavemapper mapping in the registry of Windows such as reported by a member of the forum.

    All you have to do is to open the registry editor by going to start menu, run, type regedit, then Enter.
    After that, in Registry Editor, navigate yourself in the left pane until you reach

    My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32

    And then in the pane, right-click and click New, select string value, enter "wavemapper" (without the quotes, of course), ENTER, enter "msacm32.drv".
    Come in.

    Well, of course, it didn't work the first time. I received this message:

    the Registry Editor cannot rename the new value #1. The specified value name already exists. Type another name and try again

    I was puzzled for a while, until I saw someone in the forum with a similar problem mentioned that they had found a fix for this problem by granting permissions subkey. This led me to Google search for registry permissions.

    After that here, that's what I had to do, and although it seems that a lot of steps, it's really very simple:

    Once I had reached the drivers32 registry entry I pointed out the entry in the right pane. Mine said (default) REG_SZ (value not set). I then clicked on change on the Bar Menu and clicked on permissions on the menu drop down.

    This opens the permissions for Drivers32. I highlighted at the entrance of the Administration and click the Advanced button.

    This opens the "Advanced Drivers32 security settings. I made sure that I was under the permissions tab in this window. I noticed that the box called "inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child objects. Include these with entries explicitly defined here"was checked. Yet once, I did ensure that the entrance of the Administration has been highlighted and then I clicked on the button change.

    This opens the "permission for Drivers32 entry. I chose "this key and subkeys" apply to: falling to the bottom of this window. Then, I checked the full control checkbox. I clicked on OK.

    I clicked on apply advanced Drivers32 window security settings.

    I clicked on apply permissions for Drivers32 window.

    Once that I had done it all a lot more entries appeared in the right pane for Drivers32 including my wavemapper entry. This is where all along; Quite simply, there is not all the permissions to do anything, including being in the registry pane.

    I left the registry and now all my sounds are back and the volume icon is once again in my system tray. Who would have thought?

    Hope this helps someone else.

  • How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup?

    How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup on Windows XP folder?

    Hello

    The first step is to identify the program that represents the icon and decide whether it should be in the system tray (most are not necessary). Hold the cursor of the mouse on the icon to see the name of the program that launches the icon.

    The best bet is to click the icon to see if this opens the box of the program options. If so, look for a selection similar to "remove from the system tray.

    Alternatively, you can hide the icons in the system tray.

    Here's how:

    1. right click on the taskbar and select "Properties".

    2. in the "Notification area" click "Hide inactive icons" if she already unchecked and then click on the button "Customize".

    3. click on the ' column next to each of your current behavior and choose one of the three behaviors for each program icon that appears in the system tray: "Hide when it is idle," "Always hide", or "always show".»

    If you hide an icon, but then see it again the next time that you log on to Windows, you may need to uninstall the program to permanently remove the icon. Uninstall the program permanently removes the program from your computer. For more information, see Uninstall or change a program.
