Why all my programs won't connect to IP multicast addresses

The title says it pretty well.

Why do all my programs want to connect to the multicast IP, 224.0.0.252, 224.0.0.253, 239.192.152.143, 239.255.255.250 and my 169.168.1.1 router?

Solataire really needs to communicate with a group of PC?

I'm at home on my pc, win 7 x 64, hooked to a lynksys router. There is one other wired PC which is in fact a Media Player (using VLC and basic file sharing) in the living room and a laptop Wireless used a few hours a day, several days a week. All 3 have the MSE and Zone Alarm.

Can someone please explain to me why almost all the programs I run wants to connect to my router and all these multicast IP addresses?

I mean each program. Not the 1st time I run them. Later, at random times when I opened them, they try to access these ip addresses.

As someone that is marked as the answer, I'll answer and I hope not met too rude.

Houla, the simplicity of your answer tells me your not aware of what has already been discussed at this stage.

This is all irrelevant now anyway, given that the hard drive has been wiped, all likely to be involved possible malware disappeared.

  • Why all my programs and files open with Microsoft word?

    All my programs and files open with Microsoft Word and I need to know how to change that?

    I've seen that happen before when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After Word selection using the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file, the Word document referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Word, as it should.

    The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to be opened by Word. This is known as a file association. . The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely.

    This has happened enough that a small utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is a registry hack to do this, but I recommend the utility unLNK for its ease of use.

    I used to send people on another site to download this utility, but this site has become confused with all the ads and fake download links. I put a copy on by SkyDrive own here.

    Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

  • Why all my programs are "not responding" and ends up crashing?

    All my programs, including Internet Explorer have had periods where an error message is displayed in the menu bar "does not", finally they crash.  I thought that maybe the programs as a first step, but I'm starting to believe that Windows 7 is at fault.

    Have you tried to test with another user of Windows (which you may need to create)?  It will check whether your user profile is damaged.

    Try running ChkDsk to check your drive for errors. Right click on your drive icon / properties / tools / error checking.  Try first by checking do not each box (that it will run in read-only mode) to see if it reports any problems file or hard drive.  If so, restart it by checking both boxes and restart to allow him to attempt to fix any problems found.

    Also, I wonder why all my programs that, once appear on programs and features and now no longer?

    Seems that the x 86 programs disappeared.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    `

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Why gesture to turn on my trackpad behaves not as before for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?

    Why gesture to turn on my trackpad behaves not as before for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?

    I changed the subject: config to make the rotation gesture to move between tabs and it worked great for well over a year. It now behaves properly, as described here:

    https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=877598

    It used to be very controllable move a tab on, now it is erratic and moves quickly and the unexpected tabs regardless of the slowness, I do the gesture of rotation. It's the main reason I use Firefox on Chrome and I will continue to do so unless there is no solution for this.

    Just put the browser.gesture.twist.threshold to something around 15-25.

    my file were gone in all menu programs start but it still usable in the c drive... Why? and how to get back to normal?...

    its empty in all programs but available to the c drive... can someone help me? /

    The elements of the start menu are a few shortcuts to the files on the C: drive you mention.  Done that caused all the elements of Start Menu to disappear?  This is sometimes caused by viruses that hide items on the computer, make sure that the computer is virus free, run a Malwarebytes scan on the machine.  If the machine is free virus that then I suggest that you do a system restore to a point just before the problem started.

  • My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    * Original title: SUPPORT of the PILOTS LOSE INTERNET.

    My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    What do you mean by "driver support?

    If you have installed one of these offers of support software driver, you have installed malware.  The vast majority of them no useful software and installing a lot of malware on your computer.

    The drivers are not the soft thing you should normally be updated.  I recommend the updated drivers only in the case of a problem that has to solve, and it's rare.

    Is the ONLY source, you should consider for driver updates or OEM support site.  Even those who sometimes go way overboard in trying to update the drivers.  The latest Dell systems are equipped with updated software that checks for new updates every day.   In most cases, drivers are rarely updated after the first year of a product.

    Why my iphone is required to connect to itunes after updating wireless?

    I don't have itunes and won't.

    Is there anyway around of this or take it back to the old ios?

    More than the upgrade of the air seems to have issues, whether all connect at the same time or other problems. I had to plug my phone into the computer, update itunes to the latest, published today, then ios upgrade 10.0.1 and it is fine now. You could bring to the apple store and probably use their computers, just don't tell the computer to trust the phone.

    Check that your antivirus (all-in-one suite If you have one) is not turn off your network traffic.

    Note the devices installed in the machine.  Use this information to download the latest version of the drivers and software for the manufacturer's Web site features (on another machine and store on an external support, I suppose, would be the only way for you to do.)

    Uninstall the software/drivers for network devices.  Turn it back on.  Even if pilots are found/installed automatically, manually update the drivers & software using the files you downloaded earlier.

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    Remove anything they find.  Reboot when necessary.  (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

    Open a command prompt and run the commands following one at a time (after each ENTRY) without leaving the part through if somehting started working...  Note all errors and post them here.

  • Why all the results are duplicated when searching in my bookmarks library?

    If I search for "Shell", for example, and then click on the 'name' column, most of the 'results' are duplicated. For example, "Perdido | On Shell"in the"shell"folder Parent is shown twice... same URL and al. I see that the or after the 01/02/2013 added bookmarks are NOT duplicated.

    In my case, the bookmarks ARE actually duplicated. I checked by exporting and by analyzing the HTML code.
    The whole "All bookmarks" hierarchy had somehow been copied into a random location of my favorite tree. This is why all bookmarks except most recent lie twice.
    It looked like this:

    - All Bookmarks
      + Bookmarks Toolbar
      + Bookmarks Menu
         + MY_FOLDER_A
         + MY_FOLDER_B
         - MY_FOLDER_C
           MY_NESTED_FOLDER_A
             - All Bookmarks
                .... older state fully duplicated!!!
    

    I deleted the nested copy of "All bookmarks" and it seems OK now.
    I made this copy by mistake (which I highly doubt) or a bug caused.

    Good to hear that you are not using Firefox Sync (I use it). It would have been a Prime Minister candidate for causing a problem like this. (My bad favorites have been replicated to all of the computers connected with synchronization).

    The copy of "All bookmarks" should have been made over the past months, but I couldn't determine exactly when. The copies have the same ADD_DATE and LAST_MODIFIED timestamp in the HTML file.
