security problem don't let online

According to all diagnoses our ethernet card works fine, but when when we try to connect to internet it tells us that the cable is not connected. It happened once in September of last year and our local guys went in a turned off a protection framework and we were able to get back on the internet. It was nothing for this setting light up. I want to know is where it is on vista and how to disable that.  I don't want to have to hold my computer guy again and pay for something that I can probably do it myself.

You need get better technology. There are many safeguards built into Windows Vista, but none that would prevent you to get on the Internet. Webroot is not particularly good, and has features that could be causing the problem. Uninstall Webroot and see if you can get on the Internet. If you can, then install Webroot even once if you need to and contact their support when he plays, or install a best free antivirus like Avast or NOD32 Antivirus (commercial). Use the built-in Windows Firewall.

If this does not help, then take the machine to a professional reputable local (not the same technology of course) and do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

    Print > save as PDF - use an excerpt (part of Mac OS X), so Adobe Reader should have no effect on that at all.

    As for the error "file corrupted", simply uninstall the Reader app will not affect it. Follow these steps:

    Mac/HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins

    Trash the files AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin

    Mac HD/Applications

    Trash the application Adobe Reader

    [user] / Library/Preferences

    Trash the com.adobe.Reader.plist file

    To access the [user] / Library, hold down the 'Option' and click on 'Go' in the FInder menu.

    Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe

    Trash the drive (full record)

    Empty the trash.

    Download the installer FULL here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Quit your browser, and then reinstall the drive.

    Run it from the Applications folder and agree to the license agreement.

    You should have no problem with Safari PDF files download.

    Unfortunately, ANY PDF file that says it is damaged.... You will need their trash.

  • Best calls "Windows Help" Attorney call me to say I have a security problem on my PC and wants that I let him remote connect to solve this problem, it is legitimate?

    The first few times we call I refused to listen to because it sounded wrong, but this time I heard him out and that's what they said. First, he was of the India, I think his accent and he said he was calling to inform me about a security problem with my PC, it is said to "Best Windows Help" and that my network was showing at its end with a red light indicating a problem. He had opened the Run command and type of command bar to display the observer of events and go to the newspapers of Win and click Applications, then he wanted me to scroll the Application events and see how many errors was there. Between 20 and 50 I said, he said oh yes you have a problem and that he could fix in a few minutes, then it puts me in a collaborator of his that says display the control bar run then type "Iexplore www.support.me" which led me to a "Logmein Rescue page to https://secure.logmeinrescue.com/Customer/Code.aspx. At this point, that he asked me to give him full access to my PC in which I said, "you're crazy, no way" and he said OK then your PC will freeze and crash and I said a few words very friendly back and hung up. They seem to call every month or two and it looks like the same guy. Is it a Con? Who is this company "best Windows Help and how are they finding me? They say the information they hold comes from Microsoft. My caller ID lists like V052409070106, phone # (202) 011 - 3341. What is everything. Also, my PC is not crash or freeze because I installed it 2 years ago. I am running Win 7 Pro with Microsoft Security Essentials and windows Firewall behind a Cisco router.

    Scam.  They said that my computer was downloading malicious code and therefore transmit signals the error on their server.

    They have a Web site, as afar as I can tell.  I asked the guy at the phone for his site.  He couldn't give me a Web site URL or couldn't pronounce correctly.  He was frustrated and hung up.  Scam.

  • Satellite A500/026: problems in streaming/watch online videos

    Hello

    I didn't know where to ask for help, so I thought start id here since I just bought my Toshiba A500/026

    basically im having problem watching/streaming videos online. regardless of the source of the video, youtube, megavideo, veoh. the problem is that I have to wait as the entire video to load and then it starts to play. I can't look at it that it broadcasts.

    It don't tell me his load, it shows just a black screen and then all of a sudden it goes to show that the bar is full and video starts, now it is on short vids because it does not take long, but for movies, it fails generally as they take too much time to load the site will usually come with a mistake.

    Now Ive got to look on the web and I can't find this problem else where, ive checked that I have the last abode flash installed and driver debugging. usually, I use firefox, but im getting the same problem on IE.

    any help would be approeciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Maybe you installed a few 3rd party applications that affect the streaming
    Mate sorry but I have no idea why you can not watch the movie, while streaming is running.

    Have you installed codecs?
    Maybe you should do that I m using the K - Lite Codec Pack.
    Try to install it and then check it again.

    I've reconfigured my printer to my router.  Any suggestions?

    Hey @LoreeW,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support. I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that you have a few problems with ePrint using your HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this.

    I recommend that you first check your printer to verify its intact ePrint connection:

    • Touch the icon (webservices)
    • If you see an address @hpeprint.com, I recommend that you try to send a test ePrint from a different email domain than what you use on your work computer.  If it prints correctly, we can rule out your printer as being a factor in this particular issue.  If your printer's Web services is enabled is more, re - enable.  Any problem would occur with this, click here to access another relevant post I created.  Scroll to my suggestion re: setting a manual DNS as this tends to help by allowing the webservices where fail the normal steps.

    If you were able to send your printer work ePrint of any e-mail domain other than the one you use at work, read on.  Click here to see an HP ePrint article that focuses on the various factors that can contribute jobs ePrint not printing not.  Note that some areas of corporate email may become incompatible with ePrint due to the presence of a digital signature in the outgoing message template.  EPrint jobs you send work meet these criteria?

    Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  Thanks again for reaching out in the Forums - we are always happy to help you.  If I helped you to solve the problem and that you liked this post, feel free to give me virtual accessories by clicking on the 'Thumbs Up' icon below.

  • Installed XP Pro SP3... Now my dvd player does not Sleep in my computer and does not appear to exist? I have no filters in regedit, it isn't a problem of drive letter, model acts as reader's not here yet. No driver for it, as this is the firmware

    DVD/cd burner no longer works. Instlled SP3, no computer behaves as it is not yet connected.  No reader, its firmware.  No filter I know cuttin git.  Not a problem of drive letter, carries the reader will not be open yet.

    Hello Justuslonginus,

    Thank you for your message.  What is the brand of your computer?  It could be that your computer manufacturer has a required update before installing SP3.  You should check with them before moving to the next steps.  After checking with you computer manufacturer, try to run the new hardware wizard to scan.  The instructions are below:
    Click "Start" > click on "Control Panel" > double-click "Add Hardware".
    Answer that the device is already connected and allow the system to scan.
    If your system has not yet found your drive.  Then we can remove SP3 to see if it was the culprit.  Click HERE for instructions to remove the SP3.
    Please let us know if it did or did not help to resolve this problem.
    See you soon

  • File restrictions not met does not, major security problem with Reader shared.

    Summary: it is possible to transfer files freely between host and virtual machines, but are not limited to declared Shared Folders.

    I'm under VMWare Player 6.0.3 + tools under Win7/32, generally without problems. However, I just found out what seems to be a major security problem; It may have been there for years, I never checked. On a CentOS Linux VM and a Windows XP VM, I put folders always active; two folders are shared, C:\Users\ < name > \Desktop\VMWare (a subdirectory on the desktop) and R:\ (a RAM drive). "Card as a drive in Windows network, you can" is checked in the virtual Windows machine. There is no option for a folder always be not shared, the other only until the next poweroff (re point 2 below). I did some tests and was able to easily drag and drop files from the two virtual machines (running at once) to the host WITHOUT RESTRICTION FOR THE SHARED FOLDERS; I copied the files of the computer desktop virtual on the desktop of the host (not the directory said 'VMWare'), the office of the host on the desktop of the virtual computer and directory host random (C:\TMP) on the virtual machine, and then again to the desktop of the host.

    1. serious, important question: the VM seems to have free run of the host, not only in the shared directories.

    2. point minor: indicates the VMX (all below dossier_partage) file < sharedFolder0.expiration = "session" > but < sharedFolder1.expiration = "never" >; should not be the same thing, 'never' as records of actions are always enabled?

    I have shared folders only through settings, no direct VMX edition. The VMX has:

    sharedFolder.maxNum = '2 '.

    sharedFolder0.present = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.enabled = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.readAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.writeAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.hostPath = "C:\Users\ < name > \Desktop\VMWare.

    sharedFolder0.guestName = ' transfer to '.

    sharedFolder0.expiration = "session".

    sharedFolder1.present = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder1.enabled = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder1.readAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder1.writeAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder1.hostPath = "R:\". »

    sharedFolder1.guestName = "RamDrive.

    sharedFolder1.expiration = "never".

    That concerns me; I sometimes deliberately tried to expose virtual machines to viruses, in the hope that there is a Chinese wall between the host and the VM, except for shared directories.

    I am dong something wrong, is this expected behavior or is it an error in VMWare Player?

    Best wishes

    Looks like you're confused shared with drag-and-drop folders.  With shared folders, the host files are mapped in the comments (possibly as a Windows network drive).  Navigate in the comments under \\vmware-host.  Drag-and-drop is a completely independent feature.  There is no restriction on access to the drag-and-drop.  To disable drag-and - drop in VMware Player, power off the virtual computer and add the following to your virtual machine configuration file:

    insulation. Tools.Copy.Disable = 'TRUE '.

    insulation. Tools.dnd.Disable = 'TRUE '.

    insulation. Tools.Paste.Disable = 'TRUE '.
