Why is adobe requiring installation of the McAfee software with the latest updates?
I got my normal notice of update for Adobe acrobat. However, during installation it tells me it is also installing McAfee anti-virus software. I want not any McAfee program on my computer, never! There is no indication until installation is in progress, you are demanding this facility, no way to deselect, and frankly, McAfee is a pain to remove any computer and does not play well with I'm forced to use software specific industry. WHAT THE * #))! _ Adobe plays here?
If you have Acrobat, rather than the free Adobe Reader, there is no offer of Macafee, as far as I know; you have been scammed.
If you have the free player you can disable it with an option like this:
But if you don't that I strongly suspect a scam. There are a lot of fake Player updates out there and I would be more concerned about things, it does not mention...

Windows Explorer hangs for a long time after the installation of the latest updates from Microsoft
Hello!
Yesterday, I downloaded and installed the latest Windows updates on the Web from Microsoft by using Windows Update.
After that, I see a strange thing from time to time.
Sometimes when I open Windows Explorer or on a list of logical drives reader app, the hangs of the application for 10-15 minutes (not answer).
While it hangs, other applications can function normally if they don't read the list of drives, for example, I can use Internet Explorer at the same time.
The appearance of the problem is unpredictable, it can happen after 10 to 20 minutes of work after the reboot, or even after 1-2 hours of labor.
My OS is Vista Home Premium x 64, laptop Pavilion dv7 - 1157 cl.
At the moment I don't have any antivirus software or third party drivers (I configured factory drivers only).
Event log Windows contains no error messages, all devices are displayed in device in the form of work normally without errors management.
I ran the test of memory with the memory diagnostic tool, it found no errors.
Here is the list of the installed Windows updates.
Do you have any suggestions? There may be a problem already known with some updates?
Message edited by Gleb on 14/05/2009 08:38I'm surprised, there is no answer at all.
Well, the problem has been successfully resolved by installing Vista SP2 RTM. My test program has been run 20 hours and showed no delay.

Since the installation of the latest update on my iPad, I'm unable to type a new address in the address bar of Safari. I can access the Web sites of my favorites, but when I press the address bar Safari closes its doors.
I reset holding home and power button at the same time. I did that 4 times. I also left all the settings.
I am also unable to access the server from imessage. I don't know if these two things are related, but the two that happened after the update to iOS 9.2.1
Since this announcement, I found a Reddit thread that suggests a temporary solution by disabling Safari suggestions. It worked for me.

After installation of the latest version of firefox and I use the new icon on my desktop, it always says that I don't have the latest version. Installation will correctly
It - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Page to start Firefox used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I do not think that it is maintained by Google.
From version Firefox 4, Firefox uses a 'local' with the address Start Page of Subject: House. It looks like the old start Page, but this isn't exactly the same thing.
