• I receive email spam from my yahoo email account contacts. Am I at risk of being hacked too?

  I get spam from my gmail contacts 2. One grandson, with a yahoo email account. Another, ' name sent on ", on account of yahoo from a friend of the family. There is no topic and no content in these emails, just a link to click on. I clicked on the first link sent my grandson. The first time, my search engine, Mozilla Firefox, would not lead the link. So 6 or so, he led to a site advertising Viagra. Quickly, I broke the link. I have not clicked on the link in his second e-mail "not applicable". But I sent him a separate email, asking him why he was sending these. Then today I received another one of those spam e-mails from the friend of the family (which had not sent us more than 2 years) and was immediately suspicious.

  It is obvious to me now that these two people have had their email accounts hijacked. Am I at risk of also taken hostage? My only security is Microsoft Security Essentials. It will be enough? Or I have to download Malwarebytes and perform a scan in safe mode, etc. ?

  Thank you for any answers you can provide.

  1st thing to do is to warn them that their yahoo accounts have been compromised; You can call if necessary if they are not replying to emails on your part

  and also tell them to change their email Yahoo password

• Windows Mail Contacts: How can I find the names in alphabetical order A - Z?

  original title: Windows Messaging Contacts

  I use Windows Mail in Vista. If I open my Contacts icon, all my names are listed in order alphabetical by last name, except they start from the Z - A instead of A to Z. However, if I click on "New Message", click the "To" box, all names are blurred; that is, they are not in alphabetical order, and I can't get a person with the same name as another. How can I a) find the names in alphabetical order, from A to Z when I click on the box 'To', and b) retrieve my contacts displayed A - Z?

  Thank you.

  By clicking on the header above the names of contacts line, they should be used in the other direction. Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

  Due to a problem of software of Samsung download many of my contacts in windows mail has been copied several times. I need to remove hundreds of duplicate contacts. Will never delete one at a time. Can you advise how to highlight that both 30 and remove at once? Thank you

  These keystrokes work in most lists in Windows:

  1. Click on an item to select it;
  2. Click on an item to select it, hold CTRL and click on either one to be selected at a time;
  3. Click on an item to select it, hold the SHIFT key and click another to select both and everything in the meantime;
  4. Click on an item to select it, hold CTRL and press A to select all the items.
  Press DELETE to remove the selection.
   
  You will find it easier to select multiple items in the Contacts folder, if you select view > Details.

• Windows Vista will not synchronize with internet time server

  I am running Windows Vista Business SP2 and Norton Internet Security on a Lenovo T61.  All updates for Windows, Norton and Lenovo have been applied.  When I try to synchronize with a time server Internet, I get the error message ' year error occurred while synchronizing with time.windows.com "I tried each of the other servers listed time and still get the same error message.  I spent reviewing the configuration of the firewall in time of Norton Internet Security and S32 and port 123 are enabled.  I tried to synchronize with the two Norton Internet Security Firewall on and outside, with the same results. I have internet google and looked for a solution of Microsoft.  After reading all the posts relating, I tried the following:

  running administrative invite

  net stop w32time

  w32tm /unregister

  w32rm /register

  net start w32time

  Each performed positively.

  This has not solved the problem.  I then ran:

  w32tm/config /update

  This is performed in a positive way.

  This has not solved the problem. I then ran:

  w32tm/Resync /rediscover

  He responded with "the computer did not resync because no time data was available"

  I then ran:

  w32tm/query/status

  He responded with "last successful synchronization time: not specified.

  The local Group Policy Editor reads for providers of Service/Computer Configuration/Windows Administrative Templates/time/system time

  Configure Windows NTP Client not configured

  Enable Windows NTP Client not configured

  Enable Windows NTP server not configured

  In summary, it seems that my computer has never synchronized with an Internet server time.

  If you need additional information, please provide specific instructions on how to get it and I will provide.

  From time to time, I checked to see if I resync of internet time.

  Out of the Blues started windows resynchronize.

  The only change I can think is that AT & T reset head of communications AT & T defaults shortly before he started work.  This tends to confirm my opinion that it was a problem of communication.

• Contacts are still in the main Windows mail Contacts, but they disappeared from my contacts list when you create a new message

• Reinstalling Windows Mail Contact List

  I had to reinstall my whole computer, because it crashed with an update of Windows 'stuck '.  I have my Windows Mail contact list saved on my C drive, and also have a CD of it.  I tried to import the list, but I can't make him - how can I put my contacts back in Windows Mail without having to re - type the entire list?  Thanks for any help

  I've never had the pleasure, it's just a JOKE. Assuming that you have saved the file containing the list of contacts, move it from the CD to the desktop. Right click on the folder. Properties and make sure it is not marked read-only and then try to import from there.

• List of Windows Mail Contacts

  When I want to send an email to someone and click the box 'To' the contact list are not in alphabetical order.

  How do I arrange my e-mail contacts list in alphabetical order see after clicking the 'To' box?

  
  

  Windows Messenger Contact list is always stored in alphabetical order.
  It may not SEEM to be just because of the way that you entered addresses.
  When you first enter an address, you will notice there is a box for first name and a family name area.
  Make sure that do you this for all contacts, and then decide if you want to list first, first name or last name first.
  If all the above is done, you will see the list of how you want.
  Example: Last name first
  RE: List of contacts - first name
  Open Windows Mail > click Contacts > in the window of the Contacts, right-click on the word NAME > click MORE > in the next window, select the name and click MOVE up to move the family name at the front very > click OK.
  The list will now begin with the names of family first.

  See pictures of screenshots:

  

  

  This is how your contacts list will look like, and when you click on the button to, they will also list Lastname first in alphabetical order.
