Our computer was accessed remotely this afternoon, how can we prevent this?
We have a Mac Mini, with OS X 10.6.8 using NetZero DSL as our internet provider and Firefox as your browser. Our computer was accessed remotely through LogMeIn (rescue), but it seems that the person or the group failed to hack into our computer. Are there settings in Firefox that could prevent this from happening in the future? Thank you...
Firefox is a web browser not a firewall.
I agree that it's more to do with your operating system and the LogMeIn software on ensuring that only you have access when you need to.

You should not get cold-calls from computer technical support. If you do and you do not install a sort of monitoring service you pay a fee for - it's a scam.

Flash Player is spamming my computer with ads... How can I stop this?
How can I prevent the Flash Player I spammed with ads? I uninstalled it but it persists. Right-clicking the advertisement identifies the flash player and takes me to a page of settings. Any ideas?
To be 100% accurate... Flash Player IS NOT do spamming.
You're infected with "adware" and it is in USING Flash Player to bombard you, but Flash Player is the only vehicle, NOT the culprit.
Run a COMPLETE for malware analysis.

How can I prevent anyone using a shared computer to open Windows Live Mail and see my email?
We have a shared computer in our House running Vista Home Premium. When you open Windows Live Mail my email inbox is displayed. How can I prevent anyone who uses the computer to this opening program and see my email?
The only way to do is to setup Windows user accounts for each user. Other users cannot see what another user sees.

I use to manage my DSL modem via an ip address. When I enter FF8 I wonder where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent the FF8 to do this?
And now, whenever I'm in an ip address that I wonder if I want to download the file.
This happens when the modem server does not send the file in text/html, but with a different MIME type.
I tried adding index.html in the event that the server can send this file as text/html.
If your DSL modem has a support Web site, then you can try asking it there advice on how to configure the server modem. -

How can I prevent standard users access records personnel administrator for example. photos and documents
Hello bh51,
Did you run your antivirus as well as any spyware removal? As davidhk requested, then you are able to turn sharing off the coast, but it just doesn't work? I suggest creating a new folder and move the data, and then see if other users are still able to view these.
Please let us know status.
