Why does my computer loudly play ads while we sleep?

I keep my computer at night with my Inbox down to the toolbar and MSN down on the toolbar.  Almost every night a few utilities STRONG lights and awakens us.  I have to turn my speakers down every night!  Sometimes during the day, but at night it's really bad.  There is no image, only my screensaver on the screen.

Great answer Gerry,... nice solution ;-)

You have downloaded and installed a plugin for MSN by mistake at some point. As well as your antivirus running, run a program malware and spyware, deleting anything whatsoever that you have not installed.

I do not use MSN, but if there is plugin options to this disable those you don't know that you do not use. Eventually get rid of them.

See you soon,.

  • Why does my computer need a password to login? Was not necessary before.

    My monitor would not come after hitting the space bar. The PC was in mode 'sleep', so when I move the mouse or press a key on the monitor and the PC will wake. But not this time. I restarted my PC and a new (different, never seen before) opening page appeared. To the left was instruction click on my user name. To the right was a Director HP_. I clicked on that and open a password window. I've never set up a password, then I just hit enter. I was invited for a password again. Message 'Forgot your password?', retype your password.  I typed in admin, but that has not worked. I tried several passwords that I use for web access and the forums, etc. but I have not received the case at all. Several reboots, always the same new opening page and request a password. Before that, my PC would just open in my office, now I have this new blue sheet that need a password.

    Why does my 7th generation nano play different versions of the same song (acoustic, demo, replacing) one after another before she switches to a different song?

    In the attached VI why looping force the type of data while the other does not?

    I'm guessing that you have created the Enum on the front panel.  If you right click and create an indicator, it corresponds to the type and be an enum.  LabVIEW represents enums as U16, but because the types are not the same (for example, your enum has 3 values, but a U16's 65 536 values), LabVIEW automatically converts value (or converts) the smallest representation (enum) in the largest value (U16).

  • Why my form does not compute?

    Can someone please tell me why all of a sudden that nothing does not compute when it was working fine earlier? I moved that a few small things around, but can't see why it won't calculate at all.

    http://www.milesmemorials.com/estimator.html

    First, make a backup copy of your page before doing anything else.

    First off, you have the input field 'minsiter_fee_crem' associated with 'Meeting place for service' select tag (cf. infra red): partner which, with the correct, select the tag option "Select Minister."


    £

    I don't know what of supposed to go in the field "Select the venue", because you don't seem to have a variable associated with relevent there so go 'civil_fee_crem', which was in the field "Select the Minister" in it?

    Then modify the script at the top of the page:

    minister_fee_crem = Number (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_00003.value)

    civil_fee_crem = Number (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_00006.value)

    If I'm honest I have no idea why some are written as:

    carry_fee_crem = Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76923)) and others like:

    crem_fee = Number (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76930.value)

    To get "additional services" menu work drop edit the script at the top of the page as below (copy and paste)

    total_funeral = 1640 + Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76922)) + Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_00000)) + Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76924)) + Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76926)) +.

    (Number (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76927.value)) + ((document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_00010.value) Number) + Number (GetSelectedItem (document.catwebformform22057.CAT_Custom_76926))

  • How and why does a file name as 20160312103251.m2ts becomes 0003.mts?

    How and why does a file name as 20160312103251.m2ts becomes 0003.mts?

    How to make the .m2ts in a .mts?

    Hi HiView,

    .Mts and .m2ts file extensions is not a real difference as these two are associated with AVCHD files. The file extension can differ depending on how you import the files on your computer. Files that are imported by drag and drop, or transfer them without using PlayMemories House are registered as .mts files. While those who are copied using PlayMemories House are read as .m2ts files. You can change the file extension and also rename the whole file, clicking on the video, then select Properties. The file name and other data will appear to the right of the window. You can then rename or change the format of file through this tab.

  • the sims3 game laucher does not open to play

    I played the sims3 for several months, and now the game Launcher does not open to play the game. He won't go to the black screen before the green diamonds came then go to my office. Now, it stays black. I uninstalled and reinstalled but still the same thing. I played on my daughters account one day and the next day, he would not come. Been in contact with important and done what they suggest, but still does not work. Now, I can't even uninstall the game to reinstall. I use windows vista, would be the problem and why after 2 months of game would it start? Any ideas with this?

    anything that claims to speed up your computer or clean any kind of unused garbage settings etc etc files will usually be more harm than good.

    update your video drivers and if that doesn't help, try to reinstall the game and install updates for the game, if there is.

    While appearing more precisely this question is in fact not.

    There could be hundreds of reasons why they seem to be delayed.

    Some info on when they are sent, how do you know that they have been sent, if you compare it to another device would be useful.
