virus/spam pop-up windows in the words of 'header and body' of the email

Yesterday, when I was using firefox 15 to retrieve my emails, I found the header words & some words in the email body (such as subject, date and a few words in the body of the text) have been highlighted. As I moved the cursor to these words hi - lite, pop ups of spam/virus appeared - as you do $xxx.00 monthly, a young girl with tantalizing message face, etc..

At first, I thought that my 15 firefox has been altered. I've upgraded to firefox 17, and the same thing happens again.

I then had a live chat with a support technique earthlink.net last night, thinking that it was a problem (see below) earthlink. He saw the pop ups on the screen also and suggested I used IE to access my emails, which did not have these pop-ups "surprised." Thus, he concluded that the problem is with the firefox browser.

Since Mozilla/firefox have no live chat. I need to send you this mail. My question is: is my browser firefox very corrupted I need to stop using it, and remove everything related to mozilla/firefox in the c drive?

Thank you very much in advance

Hi george it looks like a problem maybe caused by adware/malware on your pc. Please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspect entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.). also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from here and do a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place or another tool like the free version of malwarebytes.

  • Firefox refuses to stop the blocking of pop-up windows - up, even with added exceptions and blocker completely disabled.

    I work in a facility that uses a corporate intranet to access our database. The database uses windows pop up widely important information. Problem is that Firefox absolutely will NOT stop block popup windows no matter what I try. At first I added our database server to the list of exceptions. It worked for a while, but soon after resumption of the important pop-up blocking. I then completely disabled the blocking of popup windows (options > > content > > unchecked "block popup windows"). It did not work until I closed and reopened Firefox. A week later (today!), Firefox takes over again blocking the pop-up windows. I double checked my settings to confirm that Firefox still claims to have the popup blocker off.
    At this point, I am at a loss on how to proceed. I looked at other issues similar and my frustration (and certainly their even more), individuals requesting repeatedly told them to turn off the blocker of popups even after explaining that they already have. Help would be very appreciated.

    Thanks for the description of the Firefox Safe Mode. I just thought that Safe Mode is a condition under which we could launch Windows XP in a minimal operating system by starting a startup sequence, hold down the F8 key and effectively manage the prrams troubleshooting and maintenance for Windows. It seems that the Windows XP of Firefox version could run not affected by a virus, a worm or other malware, and ge fixed.

  • Sometimes, when I try to do a Google search, many pop-up windows 'Search the opening' appear. I can't keep typing in my search until I closed all these pop-up windows. How can I stop the EVER arise again?

    They are small pop up windows. When I start to enter key words to search for, very often these things pop up and not a single one. A lot of them. Popping each other on the other on the other. I can't enter anything again in the Google search box until I closed all the windows. And, usually, the ones many of them will appear again when I enter my search in the next letter.

    This is what it says in the pop up box:

    Along the top it says in clear blue margin 'search for opening.

    Under the foregoing and in a white box, he said:

    "You have chosen to open.

    [a symbol Windows] search

        which is a: application/json
        from: https//www.google.com
    

    Then on the sketch of an inner box, it reads "that should Firefox do with this file?" and it gives the following options:

        Open with ["Browse" button]
        DownThemAll!
        Save File [This one is checked as the default]
    

    Then a check box with the text next to it: "cela automatically for files like this in the future.

    Under this is a button 'OK' which is in gray and cannot be controlled and one button 'Cancel' which may be. I have never done but used the 'X' at the top right of the box to close this window.

    Now I see that I have limited options for "Happen" for the frequency. It is not every time that Firefox is open, but it is MUCH more common than 'a few times a week'. More like several times a day.

    I erased the Max, disabled all extensions and then restarted my computer. I tried to raise the problem with the Google search and it didn't happen (yet). I then re-enabled only the modules that really make me more easy life on the net, and once again, the problem has not (yet) surface.

    I don't the tag as resolved for a few more days to be sure it is resolved.

    Thanks for the help! I hope it's resolved now.

  • How to set up to the pop-up window of the VI?

    I want to install the main program with ON and OFF buttons.

    When I click on IT, it will go to the REAL deal and popup the VI 'YOUR '. When I did with 'YOUR' VI, it will close the program.

    I tried to use the new event handler, but I have all the data entry because the 'YOUR' VI is VI independence.

    Another way? Please advice.

    Thank you

    A way to make a sub VI appear as a popup is to go to the VI properties for the desired sub VI, select the appearance of the window from the drop-down list, select Customize, and then check both "Show Front Panel when it is called ' and 'close later while initially closed. You can also set other properties of the VI from here, which is useful for the screws that intneded to be pop-up windows and dialog boxes.

  • pop up window off the screen (InDesign CS6)

    I plugged my macbook to an additional monitor and used InDesign CS6 for a few hours, including the "object layer options" which opens in a pop-up window.

    One day after work again on InDesign, the pop-up window opens now off screen: the main window is inactive, but the pop up is invisible and I can no longer use the options.

    Anyone know how to reset the location of windows pop up screen?

    Thanks in advance for any helpful answer!

  • Messaging Windows minimizes the email when I answer, that's happened

    Recently, when I replied to a message, or double-click the message, he minimized in the taskbar. Using Vista and Windows Mail. What has changed to make it happen. I have looked at tools in email, but found nothing to help. I checked the properties under the start menu and it is set to normal.

    help please.

    Ok. I think that the opening may be off screen window.

    For Vista and earlier versions of Windows:

    Right-click on the tab of the window in the task bar and select move. Now, use the arrow keys to get to the screen. Close all other windows except this one and use the cursor to drag the message to the desired size. File | Output and Windows will remember the size and location when you open it again.

  • Where can I install Windows Live - the email client, not the e-mail service?

    I had a problem or two with my emails, as shown in this forum. A good piece of advice, it's that I should install Windows Live, the mail client (not Windows Live Mail, the mail service.

    I looked up and down on Ms sites - none other than the basics, including Livemail.

    I found it on File Hippo and Cnet, but both want to install additional software to speed up the download. I had problem with one of these programs a year back and I'm happy to wait as long as it takes to download it.

    -Can anyone tell me the MS page so that I can download the Windows Live Mail client please?

    It is part of the essential elements of Windows, but you don't have to download anything.

  • Lot of automation - need to remove "choose" pop-up window for the selection of the folder of automation

    Am new to scripting and am creating a batch script automate .idml CS5 to CS4 .inx. I found that a few there close enough scripts that I can edit, but they all include the same variable to select the folder for the files to be processed. Even when I put the ("//server/directorypath/folder") in place, it nevertheless opens the popup to "choose" the folder I just told him to go. Ultimately what I need is a place people can put their files of .idml on the network and, thanks to a record of action run the script from a machine dedicated with CS4, spit the .inx they need. I understood how to turn indd dialogue/alerts on and outside, but not this one!

    How can I make the "var = myFolder" be a fixed location? Everything I try seems to create an exception later in the script

    myFolder var is Folder.selectDialog ("select a folder with the InDesign files open");.
    If (myFolder == null) exit();
    var myFilelist = [];
    var myAllFilesList = myFolder.getFiles ();

    Please paste the scripts in the Advanced Editor and use > syntax Highighting > Java.

    Perhaps your problem is that you are using the wrong syntax for your path to the file. Try to change the original script and adding script:

    var myFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder with InDesign files to resave");
    alert("Set myFolder to "+myFolder.fsName);
    

    and then to see exactly how the name of the folder is given and try using them.
