Windows supports the call?
I got a call from ph of someomeone claiming to be calling for windows? They said I could have a virus in my windows, due to browsing and email? and ask that I type in the URL removed by moderator www.××× × × × or so away? They said it was a widower for windows call? a anyome else received this call?
... a anyome else [sic] received such a call?
Reported people on these calls for a person who represents Windows (note: not Microsoft).
It is a scam! Not to follow their instructions or advice and not to provide ANY information to them.
Because they use the internet lines and/or phone to complete their fraud, there may be federal agencies in your country who are interested in discovering their calls. Their report directly to the appropriate agency if you feel you can contribute to their arrest and the charges.
Microsoft do NOT pick up the phone and start dialing customers and never phones/e-mails asking for personal information or asking them to visit a web site!

When the button and then open a new window with the calling form
Hi all I have a form with buttons only and when I press one of the buttons they call another form
I want to, when I call the form when I press the button then the calling form opened with the new windowcode CALL_FORM('C:\test_report\final_to_be_added_to_main\Customer_2-5-09');
Thanks and greetings
Vikas SinghalHello
Forms in an application is running in a window unique applet. When you use the CALL/OPEN/NEW form, she would open them in the same applet window. If you want to open another instance of the form, try something like
web.show_document('http://
: /forms/frmservlet?form= ','_blank'); Note: It will not share the session. You need to re connect on this form (or use a section of configuration with the user name and password etc.). Therefore, the instance of forms, db instance all will be a new one.

Real or a scam proporting from Windows Support service call?
I just got a phone call from proporting to WindowsSupport service on malicious Junk files that are uploaded to my computer. They asked me to type EVENTVWR in my managed program and they showed me the junk e-mail and then they will remove the files for me. I refused and said I would take direct contact with Windows - was it a call or a scam?

The easiest way to support the call between the ports of SPA-8000 and 2 GWs?
My group of Silicon Labs is interested by using several SPA-8000 s to configure the VoIP impairment test systems for use with our data and fax modems. (Coincidentally, ports FXS SPA-8000 use our devices Si3215 SLIC). The SPA-8000 s will not interface with an ITSP or PSTN, but we do not have a deficiency of external network device (Shunra VE unit), we will use to undermine statistically VoIP packets.
I saw the note of analog, IP/PBX solution phone app, but I like to keep installation as simple as possible (i.e. use only 8000 s-SPA without a SPA-9000). It is possible to make calls to port - au port uses only the SPA-8000 and an external router (i.e. without an ITSP or SIP server)? The SPA Administration Guide - 8000 stipulates that FXS-to-FXS connectivity is possible using an IP router controlling crossed, but provides no specific information. Can you recommend a Cisco/Linksys router that allows this?
Thank you
Bob Giaraffa
Dear Sir;
This is possible. All you have to do is connect the two SPA8000 to a router that provides IP addresses. Easier configuration, each SPA8000 WAN IP address to static.
On each device, all you have to do is:
-[Line x] appeal without reg Yes
-[Line x] years call without reg toYES
-Define a (digital) user id - this is what the other pty faces
-On the defined proxy ip_address:port the FXS port to the other device that you want to set the line (it's one by one). First port is 5060, 5061 second and so forth...

where can I find firefox for Windows 10 who support the JavaScript and Norton
I had problems all this Sunday can not enter in the emails. bankAccounts or facebook because allways firefox41 tell me I need to install and activate JavaScript. I have Windows installed 10. My laptop is 1 year old HP. I also prefer to use Norton. What can I do? Can Andy I find an older version of Firefox in Norwegian?
Thanks for listening.
Michele yourFirefox's JavaScript should be enabled by default. Can you provide more information about the messages that you have found on this subject?
At the same time, to examine the question of Norton and your language:
Norton has been a big topic of communication of updates for Firefox via LiveUpdate a few days before each new version of Firefox is available. But that changed with Firefox 41. Due to the change in Firefox (which was originally going to be in 40 Firefox but was delayed at the request of Norton and maybe a few other companies), the toolbar needs major changes and they are still not available yet. Norton issued a statement on this subject: https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/v115161915_EndUserProfile_en_us
If you want to use an updated version of Firefox that allows to run the current Norton Toolbar, there are another option. You might consider a different variant of Firefox called the Extended Support Release (ESR) for the moment. ESR is designed for businesses that require a cycle time longer between changes to the features, but anyone can run it.
ESR is currently based on Firefox 38. It will get updates of security over the coming months, but not to get new features, so changes in Firefox 41 concerning the compatibility of the add-on will not be out for a good time.
Norton is likely to continue to support the ESR until the new update of toolbar. After that, I don't know what they will do because normally they don't take over a small range of versions.
If you decide to try it, here's how I suggest to install:
Clean reinstall it
We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.
(A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 38.3.0esr of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).
(B) the release of Firefox (if any).
(C) to rename the program folder, either:
(Windows 64-bit folder names)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
TO
C:\Program Files (x86)\Fx41
(Windows 32-bit folder names)
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
TO
C:\Program Files\Fx41
(D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
Success?
Note: Some plugins can only exist in the old folder. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:
- \Fx41\Plugins
- \Fx41\browser\plugins

I received a call today a stone that identified himself as Windows Support calls. He informed me that my Windows program was in danger of crashing, and if I went on my computer immediately he could walk me through the steps to correct this situation. I refused, and he said he'll call again tomorrow. I also Norton Antivirus installed on my computer, and according to the latest analysis today, there is no serious problems. So, my question would be support personnel Tech Windows do actually contact customers or should I consider this a scam?
Thank you

This a complete scam and one that has become very common these days. . Don't think anything such a caller said, do nothing that he tells you to do and hang up on him immediately.
At let them into your computer? If you did you are at serious risk for what they could have done it (installed spyware? Steal the passwords?), and I highly recommend that you do the two following:
1 reinstall Windows properly
2. change all your passwords, especially those of the financial institutions and online stores.

Fake call? I received a call today from someone claiming to be Windows Support
original title: fake call?
Today, I got a call from someone claiming to be Windows Support, saying he was getting my computer error messages. I (stupidly) allowed remote access to my computer and I was told that there were a great many virus that needed to be removed or it would break. While he was trying to sell my software I bcan suspect and ended the call. Now, I am very worried that if it was a fake call, could he have installed something on my computer, or access personal information, and how do I know?
Please read the responses from the link at the end.

Calls to scam of supposed "Windows Support".

They said that my computer sent error reports and that 85% of my software has been altered. They said they had a difficulty for her, and the service was free. I guess it was a fraudulent call. How can I report it? I have a callback number.

Phone call from Windows Support is authentic?
I just got a phone call from a man named Philippe de Windows Support. He said that he was receiving reports of errors in my windows and asked me to check Computer Management Applications to find errors. He asked me to remove these errors. I could not remove so he said: if I went to a Web site that he could delete them for me. I refused to let him to the computer via the code and said that I would like to remind him. His number was 02032865123, he said, that it has been supported Windows. He had an Indian accent. It is a call?
It's my son e-mail account, but it will transmit to me.This is HOAX and FAKE for sure. Microsoft will never contact you unless call you them first and ask for help. Microsoft will never know which PC encourage error.

Microsoft has none of the unsolicited telephone calls to help you fix your computer
In this type of scam cybercriminals are calling you and claim to be of Support technique Microsoft. They offer help with your computer problems. Once scammers have earned your trust, they try to steal and damage your computer with malicious software, including viruses and spyware.
Although the law enforcement can trace phone numbers, often authors use pay telephones, disposable cell phones or stolen cellular phone numbers. Better avoid fooling themselves rather than try to repair the damage afterwards.
Treat all unsolicited sceptically telephone calls. Don't provide personal information.
If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.
If you think you might be a victim of fraud, you can report it. For more information, see: what to do if you think you have been scammed.

I have windows vista media player 11 ultimat.windows. now, I was told to find the right codec... How do this.and where can I get the right codec from.and will it upset my computer in any way.not computer minded.so please tell me slower.
Hey,.
There might be times, however, when you want to read the content that is compressed with a codec that does not include Windows or the default player. In many cases, you can download the necessary codec on the web for free or for a fee. And, in some cases, the player can automatically use the codecs installed by other reading programs and the creation of digital media on your computer.
If you know the name of the codec or its ID (called a id FourCC for video codecs or a WaveFormat identifier for audio codecs), try the search on the Internet. Often, you can go to the codec manufacturer's Web site to download the latest version of a codec.
Warning
Use caution when installing codecs that you find on the Internet, in particular some of the free codec packs that claim to include codecs from a wide variety of companies or organizations. Incompatibilities are known to exist with some of the components in these codec packs that can cause serious playback issues in the player and other players, lead to the corruption of the system and make it difficult for Support from Microsoft to diagnose and solve playback problems. For these reasons, we strongly discourage you from installing these codec packs, and recommend that remove you them if you have installed them and you are having problems with the player. Install only codecs, filters or plug-ins from reliable sources, authorized, such as the website of the official supplier. Even in this case, beware: some codec suppliers offer minimal customer. Before you install the components of digital media, set a system restore point. The restore point to go back to the configuration of your system, if necessary.Install codecs may solve the problem in most conditions.
