Spies - little brother watching everything I do on my computer

Original title: spies

I think that my brother monitors everything what I do on my computer just to be curious. How can I know forshure if it does what do I seek

Hello

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

It would be great if you can answer the following questions:

1. why you think that your computer is monitored?

2. do you see any changes on the computer?

3. is the computer connected to a network?

I suggest you run Microsoft Safety Scanner for any malware or spyware infection and check if it helps.

http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

Note: the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

You can also use Microsoft Security Essentials as a software anti-virus, who comes from Microsoft.

If you still have doubts, please respond with more information and we will be happy to help you.

  • Hello, my name is Haysly Wells. I am buying a new comouter, and I intend to give the one I currently use for my little brother. How can I stop Firefox from automatically using my usernames and passwords on websites such as Yahoo?

    Firefox remembers my logins and passwords for some sites like Yahoo. How can I disable it, so that other users cannot access my emails?

    To clear your saved passwords, go to the Options of Firefox dialog box, click Security in the top and you will see the options about your saved passwords. You can click on the button 'saved passwords... '. "to manage and delete them.

    You can also clear your cookies and other data with the dialog clear recent history, using the drop-down menu to select the entire document and do not forget to click the details arrow to choose exactly what you want deleted.

    If it is not obvious how to find the Options dialog box and the dialog clear recent history, they are both under the Tools menu, if you showed your menu bar, or are in the main menu of Firefox as Options or history > clear recent history.

    Edit: well, I did not notice first that your operating system is Linux Mint 10. Your Options dialog is actually in Edition > Preferences.

  • Caution in the Email icon - little tried almost everything!

    After that a few months of perfect, e-mail and General love for my pre synchronization, a few days ago a small warning triangle icon / warning yellow appears at the top of the Inbox on my email account. I tried to 'click' on it, but annoyingly, there was no information. (Bad design, Palm!) After some research, I found some solutions and tried them all, but nothing helped. Here's what I've done so far:

    -Restart the phone

    -Remove and delete the account with and without reboot

    -Add the account with WiFi on and outside

    -Added the account thanks to the Contacts app (as Google mentioned)

    -Disabled the authentication of mail sent

    -Reset Google Captcha

    -Turned off the phone one night

    -Remove external e-mail in the Inbox

    -Turn off all other programs that may access the e-mail

    -... and a few other things I forget.

    Still no luck. I have one Google Apps account accessible via IMAP. Nothing has changed recently in my configuration. My inbox currently has 98 email - absolutely not excessive. Sometimes I can email to be downloaded into the Inbox. All other files (except 'Favorites') download fine without the warning icon. The folder Favorites downloads E-mail but shows the warning icon. No push email is received and frequently manually to update the Inbox does not download something again. That has now lasted for four days. It's painful.

    Any thoughts before I spend hours on the phone with Palm?

    Someone in another thread of message gave me the answer or: delete or move your Inbox of emails one by one until you find the offending message. Here is the original post:

    Hello

    1. you receive the error message only when you scan directly from the Brother MFC-J615W printer?

    2. are you able to scan or print from the computer to which the printer is connected?

    If the problem occurs only when you try directly scan at the printer, then I would suggest that you contact the support of brother about the question.

    Modern user interface or desktop Internet Explorer?

    Have you tried a simple system restore to a date when everything was working for you?

    If you did (or just don't want that easy way back or can not because your restore points aren't that far behind, or whatever...), you can try:

    Uninstall all Plugins Internet (RealPlayer, QuickTime, Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Shockwave Player, Adobe Air, Adobe Reader, Microsoft Silverlight, pack K-lite codec, Java Runtime Environment (JRE), etc.) to your computer.
      
    Turn it back on.

    [Note: If you don't have any other browsers installed at that time, taste: Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera are decent.]
      
    Restart the computer.
      
    Install the following plugins:

    Be careful when installing each of them to NOT install anything other than the application.  No additional software such as bars of tools or scanners virus or other - uncheck options you install (go through the steps of each and READ/UNDERSTAND what you click on!)
      
    Restart the computer.
      
    Come back and let everyone know how things work.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate would update, reset everything and he lost my computer, how can I recover?

    I noticed that I had updates ready to install and need to restart my computer, so I clicked on the update computer and turn off.

    He did the updates, then stop. I turned it back on and it makes more updates.

    When he returned to the top, I logged on my user account in the same way I always have, the other accounts where there also, so it doesn't reset user accounts.

    In any case, I noticed my son on the bottom image was not there, so looked around and looks like it resets everything completely.

    My documents are all gone, my downloads, pictures, everything.

    Is it possible to restore it?

    Please let me know. I lost years of stored files.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    If you can't find a file on your computer or you accidently modified or deleted a file, you can restore from a backup (if you are using the Windows backup utility) or you can try to restore a previous version. Previous versions are copies of files and folders that Windows automatically saves as part of a restore point. Previous versions are sometimes referred to as snapshots.

    I suggest to read the following article and check if it helps.
    Reference:
    Recover lost or deleted files

    I hope this information helps.

    Please let us know if you need more help.

  • Unable to connect to a printer Brother MFC - 240 c to Windows 7 computer network

    The computer of my network which is connected directly to the internet and my router is a computer running Windows Vista (32 bit). My computer is connected through the network to access the internet and the printer connected to the computer base. My computer was also under Vista and networking has worked well.

    I installed Windows 7 (64-bit, not by choice, done automatically) on my computer and now I can't connect to the printer on the Vista machine. I can access the internet (even if it is significantly slower than when I had vista) and on basic computer file sharing, but I can not configure the printer. The printer is a Brother MFC - 240 c
    If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    I'm assuming you get an error indicating that the print driver for 64-bit is not installed in the Vista machine.  You can either install a 64-bit driver that has the same name as the x 86 driver on the Win7 machine printing and reattempt the connection, install the 64-bit driver that has the same name on the Vista computer (for other 64-bit machines), but it's more difficult.

    Alternatively, you can set the machine to check Windows Update for a printer driver that has the same name as the 32-bit print driver.  If gpedit.mcs run for the version of Windows you have.
    Computer configuration
    Administrive models
    Printers
    Extend the point and print for windows update research connection

    If there is no matching driver name, you cannot make a RPC connection, but you can create an SMB connection.  Search for Local Port.  There are many posts on this.
