pop - up promo from Amazon is not blocked, why?
Naturally I blocker functional but there is a new and really, really boring "coupon" pop-up that is still on Amazon, but also on other sites. Close the window of the coupon and it appears whenever I browse to look at any product. It is really bad and dilapidated still offers everything the Amazon model does not already ('free delivery' above a certain expenses on some items, etc.). It has a distinctive green border and appears on other sites as well. How did get around your software? How can I make this stop?
Dear AnnaZed
I believe (not sure yet) that I know what the problem is (remedy). I was not able to get a new popup appears since I did the following:
I was running the Panda Cloud Antivirus free and apparently installed the 'free' at the outset Panda Security toolbar. I saw a post somewhere (maybe CNET) during my research time several that involved Panda anti-virus with ad sponsoring so I decided to "Uninstall" the Panda Security Toolbar for in my Control Panel Add/Remove (in Windows XP). On if the Panda antivirus program. So far, no more don't pop up ads! Fingers crossed (and will update this post if I'm wrong).
I would be grateful if you could confirm this (if you are using Panda Antivirus).
Apparently, Panda Antivirus is listed as supported by advertising (depending on the option to install the 'free' toolbar during initial installation). As far as I know, each of the pop-up ads is a legitimate company that has an affiliate program (Amazon is called Amazon Associates). I think that when you click on the "coupon", Panda gets credit for sales that result.
Please let me (and anyone else who finds this post!) know if this solves your problem.
Good luck!

Smartphones from blackBerry Bold 9900 stole, but it does not block the service provider
Hello
My phone got stolen, but it does not block the service provider. All they did was disable the sim card.
BlackBerry protect now cant work because the phone cannot connect to the network.
Don't know what else to do
It is each carrier as they will blacklist the device or simply to block the SIM card. The good news is that no one can rack up charges on your account using your old phone. Now when you get a new, open a BlackBerry Protect session and cancel the old phone. You can then connect your new phone and restore your contacts.
I hope that helps you.

Halo 2 from Amazon product key does not work
I recently bought Halo 2 from Amazon, was able to install the game in a satisfactory manner by using the product key included in the CD case, but the key was rejected by Games for Windows Live. I asked Amazon for a replacement and had exactly the same problem with a different copy.
Googling, I discovered that this problem is common and cannot be solved by Microsoft provide me a new key. However, when calling the support line, I was told that Microsoft provide is no longer a hotline for Halo 2, and that I would need to use this Web site. Can an admin here give me a new key?
It is a peer-to-peer forum composed of users like you. Why told you to use this Web site, no one knows. Nobody here can provide you with a key. If MS provides no support for Halo 2, you're out of luck. Suggest you go back to Amazon, explain your dilemma and ask for a refund.

I just changed phones (from htc to the iphone) and took my contacts with me. I have a huge list of numbers under the name of block because I get harassing calls daily. I went in my contacts and set the block to block calling name. The numbers always appear as a block, but they can call me, so it sounds. No idea why they can still pass?
Thank you
Hello, lamartin7!
Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. Reading your post, it seems that you have several numbers under a contact called "Block", but one of the numbers listed in the contact are always able to call. I definitely calls for some parts, that I'd rather not have from time to time, so I can understand you wanting to get this resolved. I'd be happy to help you!
Maybe it seems to me that the contact is not blocked on the iPhone you are currently using. To do this, press on settings > phone > blocking & Identification. Scroll down this page and click on 'Contact the block', then look for your contact 'Block' entry and tap it.
More information about the management of your blocked numbers & contacts can be found here:
Block the phone numbers and contacts or filter messages on iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch
Have a fantastic day!
