Thunderbird does not remove virus when downloaded attachments e-mail message is deleted
I have Thunderbird set in place with two email accounts, IMAP connections separate. Messages are downloaded locally when they arrive and are deleted from the server when I delete my Inbox, the local is a mirror of the server messages. Since an update (possibly to version 30.0), I noticed a curious situation:
My Anti Virus (Eset Endpoint Security: Business Edition Version 5) during the analysis of the computer comes up with many viruses, located in my local thunderbird profile, these are then cleaned and removed by the antivirus, but subsequent analyses, are types of viruses and the change number.
I am pretty sure that is happening is this: I get a small amount of spam - 20 emails per day for each mailbox, these are easy to recognize and remove, what I'm doing, however some of them have fake / accessories virus that downloads of Thunderbird (I guess), but when I delete the message the attachment is not also deleted and is rather left dormant and detached but is then discovered by the Antivirus Scan.
It happened pretty constantly for the last 6 months, at least, he never came before and my amount of spam has been pretty constant - it seems to be a problem with an upgrade (maybe). So, how to remove local attachments when I delete a message in Thunderbird? I also assume that perhaps the attachment has a way to work around or otherwise refuse the removal.
To sum up, the viruses are NOT active, they are NOT infect my computer, but they are sitting in my Thunderbird profile waiting to be activated. the ONLY way that these would get here is via downloads of spam that I receive, and I do not delete the email, but my evidence suggests that the infected attachments are NOT deleted as well.
I haven't checked if attachments are deleted from the server, which is a bit beyond my capabilities at this point, but the enamel was / is displayed deleted from the server.
All help to eliminate these threats, sleep would be very useful, thank you.
failure to understand the storage process causes a lot of gnashing of teeth and lost hair.
Thunderbird uses a MBOX file to store the messages in a folder. When the mail is deleted n it is not removed from this Thunderbird mbox file, it is marked as deleted.
For those old enough databases flat files have used this to improve performance since the time of dbase. Anti virus programs come and start to juggle with the contents of the mbox with very varying results file. Nortons will erase the entire MBOX file and everything is gone. Others try to edit the file and remove the forest, what they dislike, most often, the result is corruption.
As it's inactive data that accesses not personally I just exclude the scanner files. Security which locates ostensibly deleted data and streams it is arm and crying wolf is not security, but a shade, and I use ESET.
Basically deleted re-writing of the MBOX files to exclude mails in that the compacting process is all about, it's expensive and inappropriate time off in there is a little clean task. In the case of the IMAP account defining the expunge on output view compaction usually occur when the program is closed every day.
Right-click on select them settings under set server settings and account write off at the exit. Otherwise daily compaction is necessary to keep the empty files of deleted material.
When the single file by mail arrives (I hope in TB38). Most of this will be questionable that the removal of mail "can" delete the file

Thunderbird does not remove messages from my server of Charter
When I delete a message it removes the message of my server, so every time I have download for new messages that I receive the new and old messages. After a few days, the download will take 3 or 4 minutes due to the number of messages and eventually it will expire only.
Then, I go to my Charter account and manually delete each message. Charter said that they do not support Thunderbird, but it is not a server problemI guess that's a virus problem. Try to turn off email scanning in your anti virus and see how it works for a day or two. So try again activated. Sometimes these anti virus problems just appear and disappear, they do not like an individual post or something

Why Thunderbird does not remove the password list?
When you select Get Messages
The lower part of the left edge of the screen shows that it is connected to Virgin Media (SAY) - but crashes
On checking passwords saved Tools - Options - Security - passwords-
The box under the heading "the passwords for the following sites are stored on this computer" are EMPTY.
I can fix it by restoring files to the root of C:\Users\David\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\ xxxxxx.default\ - excluding all subfolders,
I've sorted it out yesterday by the first - restore files from 20th Jan. But to do so once more during the afternoon.
It happened twice today - but I can't use Symantec Backup last night.
I don't see why this is happening - although he did during my first attempt at writing this email.
I, since then, turned off the server for the regular audit settings and download emails.Matt
I think that I found AND fixed the problem-, but he will wait 24 hours before making a show of myself.

When running Disk Cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files'.
When I run my disk cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files' during cleaning.» Why not? I also need more disk space to defragment and I deleted all the programs that I don't use, but is not yet give me enough disk space.
Compress old files not removes all files, compress files that are rarely or seldom used.
If you get the low disk space, less than 15-20% free space, then you need to collect as much space as possible. However, the amount you get will not be a solution, only a temporary fix - it that.
To add or remove programs and Windows components in Control Panel, you can uninstall programs as your plue no use - if you have. Not to be far uninstalling programs, you do not recognize, many elements are required for other programs work properly.
Uninstall or change a program
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/uninstall-or-change-a-programYou can also check to see how much space is reserved for the restoration of the system; by default, many GBs are usually reserved. Also disable hibernation as the file created can be 2-3 GB, sometimes even more.
You must also consider moving your files and folders on a removable media, such as DVDs or an external hard drive. Still a great flash drive with 4 + GB of space can help, and their prices are reasonable these days.
In addition to Disk Cleaner, you can consider running CCleaner. This is a free program that will remove the unnecessary and temporary files temporary Internet files of the most popular and many browsers other caches that can be cleaned safely.
Since you are using Windows XP, there is a setting in CCleaner to remove the uninstallers of patches; These are the Windows Update files you've downloaded and installed over time and are there if you ever want to uninstall the update. But you can save these CD/DVD and then remove them safely from your system to recover the space. If you have ever removed one of these, you may be able to get beyond 1 GB of space.
CCleaner
http://www.Piriform.com/CCleanerIf you decide to try it, by default, that almost everything in Windows Applications and is verified to be cleaned. You must first review the lists (they are compiled by what you have installed) and check/uncheck accordingly.
Then click on analyze to see what will be removed (nothing is deleted when you click Analyze); When the scan is finished you can double-click on (or right click and select view detailed results) of the entries in the list to get more information.
According to the detailed results, you can right click for options such as adding to the list of exclusions if you want the deleted item.
Once that you are completely comfortable with your selections, you can click the run Cleaner button and then OK to put warn before vacuuming will run.
CCleaner is also a registry cleaner that I don't recommend that you use - even if you have successfully run a registry cleaner in the past, it is quite possible that the next time will bring serious problems; they are not worth the risk...
TechRepublic has just published this article about CCleaner:
5 tips for using Ccleaner for degunk your systemCNET editor's review:

I know that this was not the miracle that you can have hoped, but personally recommended solution is a new, larger hard drive. In the case of desktop computers, an additional hard disk is useful for your personal files, especially for music, movies, photos and more.
I hope this helps.

It seems that the sync IMAP of Thunderbird (31.1.2) is somewhat in conflict with CalDAV Lightning (3.3.1) synchronization, in my case with ownCloud (5.0.17) server.
Whenever I'm * online * AND the lightning is * activated * Thunderbird freezes.
Seen lightning * disabled *, sync IMAP works just fine as it should - and has done in the past.
Be * off *, lightning and even just CalDAV synchronization to work very well.
It seems to be the combination of the two that makes it ununsable.
I run THAT TLS secure IMAP on port 143 and self-signed HTTPS on port 443, with the same certificate.
I was able to reproduce this on a second housing with a nearly identical configuration.

Windows defender does not load and cannot download Adobe flash player
I think I have a security problem with windows defender, because it does not load. In addition, a file I have download must have the permissions of the administrator to continue, which was also changed and I had checked him to ask permission. For this reason, I can't download adobe reader. It has an error that keeps coming back whenever I try to download it, and after I executed the file, he's just in a display type of backup file, where it was downloaded, but it will not work on the second stage, when you need the permission of an administrator. I has not yet come. Can someone tell me what to do?

Thunderbird does not all files except "inbox." and against the info 'aid', there is NO 'account settings' under 'Tools' & I have the latest version of T. I just need to download the SENT MESSAGES, Inbox not only.

Re: I need to download sent Messages Inbox not only.
E-mail accounts IMAP see a remote view of the files on the server.
You subscribe to view these folders in Thunderbird.
You synchronize directories subscribed for a copy in Thunderbird.
What you do in a folder for example imap: delete, will occur on the server, so viewing via webmail or Thunderbird folders appear identical.However, in your case, it seems that you have created a POP e-mail account.
E-mail POP accounts can only connect to Inbox server and download server Inbox for the Thunderbird Inbox pop e-mail account.
It's not a quirk of Thunderbird; This is how all Pop mail represents the work.There is a work around to get "sent" in the folder mail sent from server in Thunderbird. You just do it once, because when you send it through Thunderbird, it will put the e-mails in the folder sent TB pop mail account and not on the server.
Thunderbird creates a "Sent" folder when first send you an email.
So, if you have not yet sent an email, please send one, even if only to yourself.Then, move all inbox emails in the appropriate folders.
You can create new folders to organize them.How to create a new folder:
- Right-click on the name of the e-mail account, and then select "new folder."
- Give an appropriate file name and click "create a folder".
When the Inbox is empty:
- Logon to the Web e-mail account by using a browser.
- Move all emails "Sent" in the "Inbox".
In thunderbird:
- Click on 'Get the message'
all the "Sent" emails must get downloaded from the server Inbox anto your Inbox in Thunderbird.
- Then move all your emails in the 'Sent' Thunderbird folder.
You should now have all these emails downloaded from the server and display in Thunderbird.
