Very large (> 1 MB) consent.exe in prefetch - malware?

I was struck by ransomware a few times this summer, and even if I was able to recover control of my PC, I wonder if there is always something lurking on my machine.  In particular, the image of the CONSENT. EXE in Prefetch file is much larger than the normal executable (1 MB compared to 100 KB).  Is it normal for the CONSENT. EXE in Prefetch folder to get to this great?

The risk profile of an executable file of gauging its size is a rather original approach that is not supported by logical reasoning. Much better to rely on your virus scanner and practice safe hex.

  • Why firefox doesn't go very large print even after that I customized to print smaller.

    I downloaded Firefox and the screen is very large fonts and the screen is big too.

    Check that you are not running Firefox in compatibility, or with a reduced screen resolution mode.
    You can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut via the context menu and check under the tab "compatibility".
    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

    If necessary adjust the value by 0.1 or 0.05 (1.1 or 0.9) until icons or text looks right.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    The problems of Firefox using Firefox SafeMode

    When in Safe Mode...

    • The State of plugins is not affected.
    • Custom preferences are not affected.
    • All extensions are disabled.
    • The default theme is used, without a character.
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
    • The layout of the default toolbar is used.
    • The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
    • Hardware acceleration is disabled.
    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 15.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

  • I support a very large school district running Firefox 3.6. What will happen at the end of life date? In the online environment, we test this week.

    I run the test center for a very large school district with over 120 students of k. We have a current deployed at base of 54 client machines of k using Firefox 3.6. We have not upgraded for many reasons, of which the most important is to remove the possibility of use in navigation private students and dealing with plugin-updates for the digital non-born (read dumber than a bag of hammers users) that make up the majority of the customer base.

    We test ESR now, but only discovered this end of life for 3.6 is tomorrow, 4/24. We are currently in the middle of the scale of the State of online tests. The question is, what will happen tomorrow, when the browser will end of life. ESR wiki mentions that "an update to the current version of Firefox Desktop will be available through the Update Service Application"

    So the main question is, are my students/teachers goes to get a popup telling them that they have updated the browser if we have already turned off updates? If so, can I I disable remote using SCCM, because there will be all sorts of havoc.

    Please advise as soon as possible and thank you in advance.

  • App crash when loading very large images in Spark Image component

    Hello world

    A client of ours should display very large jpgs (about 8000 x 5000 px), which are the object of a scroll and zoom using touch gestures.

    To my surprise, even, the performance to do this using a scroller is pretty cool

    BUT unfortunately the application sometimes freezes when loading the image. (about 15% of chance to do)

    Debugger does give no info at all, simply closes debugging.

    Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this or how to avoid this?

    PS tested on several machines and different Versions of Tablet, including 2.1.0.1032

    Thx a lot.

    Tim.

    Sorry it took me a long time to respond, but I had other issues to be addressed in the first place

    Use the Profiler showed a leak memory in the skin of the viewer of the image.

    It is a memory problem.

    I must put BimapImage null source value before destroying the display manually, even if I had no other reference to it.

    A little strange, but this solved my problem.

    He could reappear obviously using a single image much bigger, but I guess that it must accept some limits on a mobile device somehow.

  • is it possible to change the display in the files of all very large icons at a time, rather than change them individually?

    I want every file access for the very large icons view. I don't want to change all my folders one at a time. I also want to keep these settings because they sometimes return to a smaller view. There are a few directories that I want to display the contents of a list.  I don't want to change any folders to assign all other folders. All advice appreciated. I don't see this option in the Control Panel/Options of folders.
