Dennis,

Ignore the email.  It is part of a scam and has been sent to a large number of e-mail addresses that hackers had managed to get.

If there was really unusual connection attempts to your computer running Windows 7, Microsoft is not on this topic.  There is no mechanism for them to know that your user accounts are a topic of your computer only.

If you use a MS account to your e-mail with Windows 7, and if there is any unusual activity so there will be an email on this subject, but that's clearly not what your email is talk.

If you use a MS account to your e-mail with Windows 7 and there was the sign - in any unusual activity so the Microsoft email contains a link to help you in your MS Account will 'Review the recent activity' page where you want to log your MS Account then have the choice to confirm whether or not the activity was by you.  Just as an example, I had these emails when I checked my email from abroad [when I confirm that it was me, the servers keep this knowledge and then I check my e-mail from this place without further interruption].

    Hello

    Updated for firefox 36.0 24/02/15
    Now to get a Windows security alert
    Windows Firewall has blocked some features of this program.

    When I started the computer 25/02/15 the Windows security alert appeared.

    I have not allowed access to Windows Security Alert window.

    Why this security alert Windows has been published?

    The Windows security alert is the only issue.
    Firefox works normally. He never does not.
    I have internet access on my private network.

  • Cannot cross the window user account controls

    When I download Firefox on Windows 8, I can't go past the control window user account. I answered Yes and no. It shows Firefox in my downloads, but it doesn't start. Any ideas?

    The downloaded file contained the word "stub" in its name? This Setup needs to connect to the Internet to download additional files, which may get blocked. You could try the 'full' Downloader instead. Scroll to your language:

    a. start the PC, log on to Windows 7 and insert a USB flash drive in the driver.
    b. start-> Control Panel-> user accounts and of the safety of the family->-> create a user accounts password reset disk.
    c. in the Welcome screen click Next and select the inserted USB, click Next.
    d. Enter the password in the password field and click Next. When the progress indicator displays 100% complete, click Finish to exit. Remove the driver USB of PC.

    Option2: Reset Toshiba laptop for accounts with administrator rights

    If there is default or built-in Administrator account or other accounts with rights and administrator privileges, we can use it to Toshiba bypass password. Take example of Toshiba XP Recovery:
    System A. Boot mode safe mode by pressing F8 when PC stars.
    B. PC access by the available account with administrator rights and of privileges.
    C. start - users and groups lusrmgr.msc in the search ENTRY - local users and groups - box choose users.

    We can burn .iso on a bootable USB stick or a CD/DVD disc image file and reset the forgotten password quickly and easily. Take one of the most popular tool to reset the Windows Ainorsoft Windows Password Recovery password as an example:
    a. download the program from an accessible PC;
    b. burn the file .iso on a blank CD/DVD or USB drive.
    c. work around the lost password of Toshiba with the CD/DVD on the PC locked.

    Things will be difficult if we know the methods of Toshiba pass reset once we forgot password for Toshiba laptop! Be sure to share them with your friends!

    Thanks for sharing this, but we always talk about password of Toshiba, it won't and I think this might be a bit confusing, it is of a workaround for the windows user account password.

    As much as I know there is no password defined by Toshiba.

    The user can define the user account password in windows if necessary so that this workaround solution describes how to remove a user account Windows password that is common to all computers with the preinstalled Windows operating system.

    However, thanks for posting ;)

  • Whento download iTunes for separate iTunes accounts linking 10 separate Windows to make user accounts, I download iTunes from the first main administrator account, or does it download it separately in our own Windows user account

  • LabVIEW account crashes with a Windows user but not another

    I am facing the following problem:

    When my colleague is connected with her Windows user account and start my main VI (the startup process is long enough, because many LVOOP classes are instantiated dynamically) LabVIEW, LabVIEW block eventually (that is, the process of LabVIEW just end itself witout new order). The log file down LV (see attached file for more details) contains the following interesting line:

    c:\builds\penguin\labview\branches\2010\dev\source\linker\HeapLinker.cpp(372): DWarn: double object (0x1e07444c) in 1229150280 Ref for [LinkIdentity 'XSettings.xctl' [workstation]

    XSettings.xctl is an XControl I did, which is part of a façade of a class LVOOP method which is loaded dynamically into a school of my main VI.

    Oddly enough, this problem will NOT occur when I'm connected with my own Windows user account.

    Details: LV2010 SP1 32-bit; 64-bit Windows; We have all two administrator accounts.

    Does anyone have a tip how this problem could be solved?

    Mass of compilation of the affected class LVOOP solved the problem.
