  • says I have emails, but not down load them - used to work properly

    says I have emails, but not down load them - used to work properly.

    For an example says that there download 1 / 6 after awhile, he says no new messages. I can check my email from another source and see that I have 6 messages and am able to read them. I ran scan programs and malware and clear up all the problems, they found that Thunderbird is not download again. I'm on the latest version 31.6.0

    This is probably one of these programs of malware or anti virus which is at the origin of the problem. Disable the e-mail in your anti virus and restart your computer. Best? What anti virus is it anyway?

    You are right - it is a scam.  Tell the caller that you have informed the police to monitor your phone... maybe that will stop them to call you.

  • Had a call saying I have errors on my computer - is my computer at risk?

    Someone called and said that I had errors on my computer. They asked me to open the Run dialog box. They say they have identified my laptop on the CSID number (whatever it is). Asked me to open the boxes to confirm what I did until they told me to type in their Web site. When their Web page has come I'm suspicious, but I have not downloaded anything. Is my computer at risk because they identified the number of CSID from my computer?

    In addition to information from the ball, change your computer password immediately if you do not already done.
    Access control/click Panel UserAccounts.
    Click on manage another account and see if there is any administrator account that you did not create.
    If you have an unidentified account, delete the account.
    Make sure that you have access to your administrator account before you delete any account so that you block yourself from your computer.

    Then, Microsoft does not make calls to consumers about the security of their systems.
    Don't give control to the appellants know who want access to your computer.
    They can create a door entry backdoor on your computer then it is a dangerous practice.

    Microsoft offers free Microsoft Security Essentials to protect your computer from viruses and malware.
    Download it from the following location:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/security_essentials/default.aspx

    The CSID means ID Station called usually required for faxing.
    Or College ID number. In my opinion, that they just tried to fool you with their terminology.

    I hope this helps with your question.

    1. the first thing to do is to make sure that the computer is completely virus/malware-free. Googling around this error produced quite a few links where the posters were or had been infected with Spyware Protect 2009 rogue.

    Once the scanning is complete (do not skip the preparatory stages no more), if the problem persists:

    2. double-click on my computer, right-click the icon for your hard drive, click left to get its properties. If you see options to set Quota management make sure that they are disabled.

    3. in the case - BUT ONLY AFTER YOU ARE sure THAT THE MACHINE IS MALWARE/VIRUS-FREE - copy the lines between asterisks (not including the asterisks) below and paste it into Notepad. Save as undopolicy.reg somewhere, you will find. And then double-click the .reg file, that you have just made to melt in your registry. I hope that this will take care of the issue.

    Hello

    Internet Protection is a fake anti-spyware from the same family as the Antimalware tool. This malware is installed on your computer through the use of Trojans and fake scanner pages that pretend to be updates for Adobe Flash. When Internet Protection is installed on a computer it will be configured to start automatically when Windows starts. Once started, it will run a fake scan of your computer and can say that there are many present infections. If you try to delete one of these infections tell with the program it will state that it is unable to do until you buy it. As none of the infection files actually exist on your computer, please disregard these analytical results and do not buy the program.

  • It is said I downloaded el capital but still says I have OX Yosemite... no difference on the desktop

    Need help downloading or completing the download of El Capitan, please!

    He said that I downloaded, but I don't see any change and the Apple on it still Mac says: I have OS Yosemite.

    You do not download El Capitan of the operating system, you download the Setup program for the El Capitan operating system.

    The installer is probably running and waiting for you to start the installation process. If this is not the case, look to install OS X El Capitan in the Applications folder.

  • How can I get Firefox to work when my laptop says I have access to the Internet, but don't be loading not my pages?

    I'm not very keen with the terminology of my computer, but I'll try to explain my situation better than I can.

    I think that the problem began with a recent trip where I went out of State and took my laptop, I had problems connecting to wifi it. I was originally a bridge between Ethernet and wifi connection I think (something I said should not be the problem) and I had to take off for my wifi to work and once I did that my wifi worked well there. Once I came home however, my computer connects to my wifi at home and say I have 'internet access' but does not load anything on Firefox or Internet Explorer. I have already tried to rebuild the bridge, restart my laptop and analyses of virus. I know that my Internet works so if someone could help understand me what needs to change in my settings, or whatever it is I would be very happy.

    Hi Marcos140,

    I'd like to help, but is very difficult to diagnose with so little information...

    Do you know why you need the bridge in the first place?

    Your laptop connects via a wired or wireless?

    Please try this:

    1. Click Start
    2. Type cmd
    3. Press on enter
    4. Opens a black box
    5. type ' ipconfig/all '.
    6. Screenshot of the output
    7. Type "ping google.com".
    8. Screenshot

    If you can post the output of these commands, that it will help you.

    Thank you
    Curtis

  • How upgrading to firefox 32.0 when your site says I have the latest version? I have 31.0

    I get messages from Firefox on my desktop Mac update to firefox 32.0, but when I go to your site to do, it says I have the latest version. I have 31.0 on the desktop. 31.0 really is the last version for my Mac desktop? Is then 32.0 for mobile devices? Why do I get the message on my desktop Mac update?

    If you're fast enough then can only do so two small incremental updates (31 > > 33.0 32.0.3) rather than having to download and install the 33 full Firefox updated as it happens if you ignore the updates.

    I have, in the field of dialog, drag Firefoxsymbol on card Applications, it says "you have a more recent object, are you sure you want to replace it?

    Pandora radio is not working properly, they say I have to upgrade to a newer version of Fire Fox. Fire Fox very little makes it clear on how to do it. I'm not a computer genius! I have an outdated version. Summer

    You are using Firefox 3, which is the previous major version. The current version is Firefox 7. I'm not familiar with your Facebook plugin, so I don't know if it is compatible. If it isn't, Firefox will automatically tell you and ask you if you want to check the updates. You can download the installer of Firefox 7 by clicking here.
