When I enter the passwords, I see a symbol that looks like an eye. Should I be worried?

I scanned my computer and it seem not to be threats, but I don't remember this before symbol. Looks like an eyebrow on one point.

If you mean in Internet Explore 10 (IE10) then there is no need for alarm: this is a new feature. If you click the eye of password, what you typed will appear to allow you to check your password entry. The password will be visible only when you press the mouse button - your typing will disappear as soon as you release the button.

Some security considerations when you use the eye of password:

  • Be wary of anyone looking over your shoulder.
  • Do not use if your computer is connected to the distance (for example a tech support person) - even if it is a trustworthy company. In fact, I would like to avoid typing any password in an IE10 box that has a look of password for a remote access session.
  • Don't leave your computer unattended with password information (but not present) box.

  • WHAT IS THE SYMBOL THAT LOOKS LIKE A DROP OF WATER?

    This symbol appears in the column 'Size' 'object and presents it as Orange in color. I have a spam message with this indicator, which I can't delete my account 'All messages', even if I took steps to remove the trash (where it was corrupted). Can I remove the symbol or is it defined by the sender, and if I can, this will allow me to remove the email?

    I suggest that you forget and ignore the folder "all messages". It's an artifact of the way googlemail inwardly eat your email. Basically, you don't need to see or work with the folder all the messages.

    Unsubscribe it in Thunderbird. Most almost everything you can see in all messages will be visible in Thunderbird in some folder is appropriate.

  • I have a problem with the Bitlocker does not not after entering the password.

    Original title: my bitlocker encrypted Drive not respoding after entering the password.

    Hello

    I tried to block my external hard drive with bitlocker, but unfortunetly got encryption interrupted before finishing because I accidentally unplugged the hard drive, I use windows 7... And now when I enter the password the bitlocker stops responding until I unplug the external drive, I tried to decipher the drive using bitlocker repair tool in cmd, but she also is stuck at 29% every time if I managed to get some data back but not my whole data.

    , I just want to know that is there any way to recover my entire data or unlock the drive?... .Please help!
    Thank you

    I'm sorry to say, but you have made two big mistakes:

    (a) you forgot to backup your data regularly, e.g. once per week.
    (b) you have not backed up your data before making a major change, such as when your data encryption.
    There is a small chance that you can repair the damage with the found here BitLocker Repair tool:
    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee523219 (WS.10) .aspx
    If this isn't the case, then you will have to deal with this disaster as a harsh reminder that regularly back up the files is not an option but a 'must '.
