Windows right?
Likely your not the administor any more, the botnet is.
Check on this site really quick if your part of a botnet
http://botnetchecker.com/
All clear? Hopefully. Backup your files to a external drive, cd or dvd, USB keye etc off your computer.
Run the sfx file on this site and it will burn to a cd.
http://www.avira.com/en/support-download-avira-antivir-rescue-system
Next hit your BIO's key and set the cd to boot first, run the scanner and see what it pops up.
If your all clear then create another Admin, transfer your files over from the first Admin.
See if that works, eventually when your totally over to the new Admin, delete the old one.
If you can't create a new Admin, find out who locked your machine down, like your parents or it's a school computer?
Likely installed spyware or "nanyware" to watch you.
Hope that works.

Attempting to update blackberry curve 8520 to version 5.0 bundle 1168 timing out

I am attempting to update my blackberry curve 8520 to version 5.0 bundle 1168. However when it attempts to install it reaches module 386 of 399 it gives a message that an error has occured while downloading software and to check the internet connection. There is nothing wrong with my internet connection. I have tried unistalling all the software ie desktop manager and reinstalling and it makes no difference? help.

Hi there,
Try manually downloading and installing the OS to your computer first. You can do this by searching for your carrier's name in the following link and then simply download the OS installer fir your device. Once you've done that, install the file to your computer and you can then perform the upgrade.
Here's the link:

Hi DJBentley2011,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there is an issue burning CD's in iTunes. Is the playback issue only occurring on a specific device and does the disc show up correctly in iTunes? The article linked below should help you resolve optical drive issues, it walks you through identifying potential issues and provides troubleshooting suggestions.

Blackberry 8520 keeps repeatedly downloading the same email messages and facebook notifications

My Blackberry 8520 has all of a sudden started downloading the same email addresses and facebook notifications, that I have already read, I tried deleting them totally and also deleted from my computer inbox, but it just downloaded the next lot in my inbox repeatedly instead. Sometimes it says I have 50 unread messages, which is the same 7 or 8 messages over and over again, showing as unread.
I have rebooted device several times and don't know what else to do now, can anyone help please?
Thanks very much

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Have you changed the settings for messages on your account on the providers website?
(Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
If that's not it try the following:
Go to options advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
Press menu key, and select register now.
You will get a verification message. Then go to email settings and send service books.
I would suggest logging into the carriers BIS site via PC if you can.
You will get an email per account. Repeat the battery pull and see if the problem is
resolved.
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks,

Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs

If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The iPhone 5c needs iTunes 11.1, which requires Mac OS X 10.6.8. See if your Mac can be upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://support.apple.com/kb/sp575 If so, buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Then, make a backup of your data with Time Machine or Disk Utility's Restore, insert the disc and follow its steps to upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. You shouldn't lose compatibility with any application. After upgrading, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version. It will install iTunes 11.1, so you will be able to sync the iPhone 5c with your Mac

I paid for creative cloud and now it wont download because my laptop is incompatible with the format can you give me a version that is compatible?

I just paid for this and it wont download on my laptop because it is not compatible with the format can adobe give me a different version or not?

And what exactly? you have not provided any system information or otehr useful technical details, so we can't know what is going on.

My Blackberry 8520 won't let me download the App World

Hi,
I recently got my Blackberry 8520 unlocked to all networks. As I turned it on, the BlackBerry App World was gone as were a few other things and my BlackBerry Messenger was not working properly. I could not recieve messages or send them. I installed the BlackBerry User Tools disk on my laptop and re-installed a few things but they still would not work and the icons were not there. I also tried to download them off the internet on my BlackBerry and it went as far as the language selection and then when I clicked select language, my phone brought me to the BlackBerry logo and just stayed there and nothing happened.
Can anyone tell me why this is and what I can do please?
Thanks.

Sorry. I changed the Wi-Fi diagnostics to advanced settings and there are three green ticks beside Association, Authentication, and DHCP. Are they the same things that are mentioned in the KB20055 article?

Hi,
Nice catch on the diagnostic option change!
I always run the advanced display, its always better to have as much detailed information as possible when you are troubleshooting a problem.
What you described is not the Blackberry Infrastructure section referred to in the article. The first part of the test under Wi-Fi contains the options you mention. These results refers to your device negotiating and connecting to your home router only.
Shrink the results by clicking the first two categories of the test. The Blackberry Infrastructure is the last category. Here are my test results for reference and the options in blue.

KB35813 - Download BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2.1.2905 or later

Hi,
I have the same problem as described in KB35813, I have a BB Z10 with OS version 10.2.1.2141 & I want to download the BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2.1.2905 or later to update my device.
Can you provide me a link to download this version?
Kind Regards
John

A very well timed request. An updated OS version, 10.2.1.3175 is beginning to roll out to many locations, including Canada, today. You can manually check to see if it's available to you by going to Settings > Software Updates and tapping "Check for Updates".
When it's available, be sure to back up your device using BlackBerry Link as a precaution. When accpeting the update, ensure you have a good WiFi signal, and that your device is plugged in to the charger.
Enjoy.

Hindi Language in Blackberry 8520 Curve

Hi there,
I am unable to see hindi posts/fonts on blackberry 8520 curve.
Please assist me how to get this done.
Regards

Its a mere perception that Blackberry 8520 Version 5.xx doesn't support Hindi or Indic fonts.
Visit the following url from your Blackberry handset having operating system version 5.0 and above, including old Blackberry device 8520
http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23613317/A_HindiFont/hindifont4bb.jad
dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23613317/A_HindiFont/hindifont4bb.jad
Download hindifont4bb.jad file
You can download the Indic font for Blackberry and install it. You will be able read and write Hindi characters on your handset.
Please confirm if it works.
Thanks & Regards,
Shivshankar
