• Something on my system starts automatically download when I connect my system to the internet.

  Download never stops

  When I make a wireless connection (or even a dial-up access) to the Internet, the download starts.  I didn't ask this, and waited to see if it stops.  It never seems to.  Even after 500 MB has been transmitted. I tried selective startup with all this that deleted except what is necessary to recognize the wireless device.  That does not fix the problem.

  I turned on the firewall and Norton Antivirus.

  Is it possible to trace communications to tell where it comes from?  Or any other suggestions on how to fix this?

  Thanks again - this time to Jack.

  I agree that I'm probably lacks enough understanding to solve this problem in a forum like this.

  PRTG Network Monitor myself to work, but can't find anything in which seems to follow the link which causes the continuous download.  Very probably, I didn't know how to use it properly - it came with a pretty important manual which I didn't read entirely, and what I've read, I found to be of a technical level that is beyond me.  It seemed to be a good piece of software and I enjoyed a chance to make a free download...

  I looked your site ezlan and this was helpful.  I did start > run > msconfig and experimented with turning off of a variety of elements of start-up and also on the Services tab most of the non-Microsoft services.  Now I disabled all startup items, and on the Services tab I have disabled all non Microsoft services except Norton anti-virus and NovaCore SDK (which is needed to establish the connection of Virgin Mobile).  I left all on Microsoft services.  Needless to say that this configuration did not stop the download.

  But here's a brilliant note: I stopped the download by 1) conclusion on TCPview the process ID (PID) that has been accumulating the ongoing increase received bytes, 2) with this PID, I went to Process Explorer and double clicked on the process that had this PID.  Then, on the Services tab, I read on each of the 25 - odd services that were running and a guess and stopped the BITS service.  Presto! Download stopped.   This service seems to take care of the updates for the operating system and other things, and I guess that's a rather crude way to fix things.   I see that in the start screen, I can uncheck the BITS service, and maybe I should do this to keep it from start to start.

  So you can see that I have a fix of some kind, although I know I need to occasionally cancel for the Microsoft updates.  I will continue to operate in selective startup mode and you uncheck the BITS service in the section of the Service of the start window.

  At the risk of taking more time, I ask a few questions (hopefully) final:

  Offer a clue as to what kind of problem I have my 'fix'?

  How much harm I do by removing the BITS service?

  Thank you very much.

• HP Envy: Instant ink "connect your printer to the internet" emails

  I'm often abroad and so my printer is turned off for extended periods. I continue to receive e-mail from hp saying that my printer is not connected (I'd be very worried if it was!) and I should connect my printer to the internet - that of course isn't possible. Anyone know if it is possible to disable this feature? I have looked at various preferences in my account but cannot find a way to do it - emails are very irritating!

  Hi @Adrian774,

  Thanks for getting back to me.

  I was browsing the documentation that I have on this printer and has been unable to find out exactly how much power these printers use. The printer HP Envy range are marked with the ENERGY STAR logo and qualified

  My MacBook froze during the installation of the update at El Capitan and now I am unable to connect to any except the screen of the guest user. There was a message of panic, and somewhere in there, he said no set of OS. I tried to start without danger, it does not work either.

  This general situation may be similar to what is mentioned in this sequel to thread of the CSA

  and if the remedy is to use instructions; detailed and I hope they are correct...

  Re: Restart fails after installation of El Capitan help!

  Or you can try and see on the repair of the system and then if your disk utility can

  See the Macintosh HD, as a boot volume, you could restart from OS X Recovery to

  the Mac system, to see if this solves the problem. There may be more than one cause.

  You could try and boot into OS X Recovery, utilities out there, and other options are available.

  • OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support

  This example uses a special partition on the hard drive of recovery which is not in the

  same disc that the Mac OS X section; However if your hard drive is missing, these other

  items may also be at risk. You must have and maintain backups of your duplicate content

  on the external storage drives closed; In addition, a Time Machine backup helps to restore.

  • Tips for OS X - using HD recovery:

  {Using the utility disc and other tools can be done from the boot OS X Recovery volume

  Beware of the fact these tools can also delete or reformat your content; wiping.}

  Don't know what to say; you could see visiting an Apple store with genius if

  There is an official store. Usually for best time planning you would contact them for an appointment.

  • Make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store Genius Bar
  • Find an Apple authorized service provider
  • https://locate.Apple.com/country - Apple - find places - selector of country (if outside the U.S.)

  Or if there is no official retail Apple Store with genius, the following suggestion would be to contact

  a service provider authorized Apple, an independent specialist who is qualified in the repair of Apple.

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!

  Hello Verashanley

  Since how long did begin?
  You have added a new software or hardware to the system?
  If the issue took place recently then you can try the system restore.
  How to perform system restore in Windows XP.
  If you have recently added anything to the system (hardware or software), then remove.
  If the system restore does not then check in Device Manager and verify that the network card is considered and no errors appear.
  To open Device Manager, click Start, and then click Control Panel. Click performance and Maintenanceand then click System. In the hardware tab, click Device Manager.
  Check the type of network card you have and that you try to update the drivers from the hardware manufactures Web site.
  Also, check the connection for the network adapter. Do you see any physical damage. When you plug the NIC saw all the lights on the network card lights up? If not, then you can deal with a hardware problem and need to contact the manufacture of the system and see about obtaining the card replaced.
  Let me know the results. Thank you.

• Firefox crashes whenever I connect my phone to the Internet

  I just connect my phone to the Internet whenever I'm on my home WiFi network or Internet connection high speed, so I only use my part-time phone data connection. But whenever I plug in my phone (a X Starmobile KNIGHT, KitKat) Internet, Android always tells me, unfortunately, "Firefox has stopped." Did Firefox optimized for those who have "always - on" connectivity to the Internet? What are the possible workaround solutions for this?

  Hi Bonarae,

  Firefox shouldn't be gel like this; Looks like something is wrong.

  Could you try to remove Firefox and then reinstall it to? Maybe with a new start, Firefox will be better behaved.

  Warning: this will wipe all your data Firefox from your phone - including bookmarks, history, etc.

  To do this:

  1. Open the game Google store
  2. Search for "Firefox".
  3. In the search results, tap on Firefox to see full information
  4. Press the button Uninstall
  5. Once the uninstall is complete, click install to reinstall Firefox.

  Let us know if this solves the problem!
