Thank you.

Unfortunately, that is not a solution; it is a workaround to disable remote access. I need remote access.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The Moon Worm - Infects Home Routers - Shows Fake "Adobe Flash Critical Update Required" Message

Greetings,
This morning we had numerous workstations pop up with an Adobe Flash error. The browser will be taken over by an Adobe Flash Critical Update Required page and won't let the browser go to any other internet site. Within the page, a box will pop up that says: "Attention! your current version of Adobe Flash Player is outdated! Your computer is vulnerable to malware now. Update your Adobe Flash player now."
This message pops up on IE Explorer version 9-11, Google Chrome and Firefox and the operating systems are Windows XP Pro and Windows 7 pro. It has all the behavior of a virus or malware so I don't want to run it's download file which is named install_flashplayer_12_x32_64_msaa_aax_latest.exe.
I've been able to download both flash player installs from the Adobe.com site for both IE and Other Browsers. Sometimes I've been able to run the installs and it shows that the download and install ran okay with Adobe Flash Player 12 ActiveX showing up in the installed programs list. Other times, the install won't run and the install file mysteriously gets deleted. Even after the successful download and install, the browser works briefly okay and then gets seized by the "Critical Update Required" page again.
We're running AVG Anti-Virus Business Edition which is kept updated. A scan with this program and an updated version of Malwarebytes isn't showing any viruses or malware that could cause this problem.
What can I do to get rid of this "Critical Update Required" problem and get our browsers working again?
Thanks.

I have a Cisco E3000 Wireless N Router. I was having the issue accross OSX and Windows. This thread was a big help, but when I tried to get the latest firmware from Cisco I found the download link was no lnger present. I chatted with their support and obtained the following info if it helps anyone:
"Linksys is aware of the malware called “The Moon” that has affected select older Linksys E-Series routers and select older Wireless-N access points and routers. The exploit to bypass the admin authentication used by the worm only works when the Remote Management Access feature is enabled. Linksys ships these products with the Remote Management Access feature turned off by default."
" If you have not enabled the Remote Management Access feature of the router, you are not susceptible to this specific malware. If you have enabled the Remote Management Access feature, we can prevent further vulnerability to your network by disabling the Remote Management Access feature and rebooting your router to remove the installed malware. Linksys will be working on the affected products with a firmware fix that is planned to be posted on our website in the coming weeks."
"What we can do to fix this issue is to make sure that the router's security settings is enabled and the remote management is disabled."
"Ensure that the Filter Anonymous Internet Requests on the Security Page is enabled."
"The next step would disconnect us from the session. We need to reboot the router to clear the cache."
"According to the system, your product is already outside the complimentary assisted support period. I’d just like to inform you that we normally charge a fee for supporting this type of issue,
but since we’re seeing a potential hardware problem with the product, we’ll be extending complimentary support just this one time."
"We also need to upgrade the Firmware. However, the Firmware for this router is no longer available for download. Disabling the remote management on your router and securing it would help fix the issue."
I did find the latest firmware for the E3000 here: http://www.userdrivers.com/LAN-Network-Adapter/Linksys-E3000-Wireless-N-Router-Firmware-Up date-1-0-04-build-6/download/

Wrt310n firmware update completed but the router will not start!

I did a firmware update for my wrt310n because it was having to be power cycled twice a day! When I updated it said that it completed but when I tried to reconfigure it it would get stuck at "waiting for router" and when its not configured it did nothing. Help please?

Did you reset the router...after upgrading the firmware...if not then, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
You can also try the different computer.

All we need is a firmware update to fix the signal?

According to this blog a firmware upgrade would fix the signal problems.

Are you able to send and recieve MMS messages?
If not it sounds like you packet data and MMS settings are not present in the handset
Who is your network provider?
If the settings are not in your handset you will be best directed at your network operators website, to obtain the settings. There used to be a WGSglobal settings service from Nokia on the Nokia support site but it is no longer available, most operators now link to their own version, and its the operators settings that you need, so go to their site and search for "Get settings" or such like
Examples:
Orange UK http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/selfservice/index.jsp
O2 UK http://getsettings.o2.co.uk/ServeSettingsWebApp/
Vodafone UK http://preview.tinyurl.com/cxdlwd
From those pages you can get the settings for those providers you will need to find your operators version.
Have you an unlocked SIM free Generic E71?
The phone should detect the SIM - try running the settings wizard in the handset to provision these.

Submitting firmware update requests for the HAP-Z1ES?

I was wondering if there is a link to where users can submit requests for future firmware upgrades.
It would be great if in the Audio Settings menu of the HAP-Z1ES, there could be a feature that allows you to change the phase settings of the two d/a converts (from "normal" to "invertred", and vice versa). Stereophile's latest issue reviews this player and mentions that the phase of the L/R channels is inverted.
This is something that you can changed via firmware, as the d/a chips in this unit have the feature of being software controlled and switching the phase is a feature of these chips.
Thank you.

Firmware update for HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless to fix load paper issue - as for the 8500?

Is there any hope that that soon will be a firmware update to fix the issues loading paper and the printheads for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless printer?
A month or two ago there came a firmware update to the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless, which has some of the same issues,
and allegedly should have the much of the same load-mechanism as the 8000 printer.
It would be great, as we are on the fourth (4) replacement of this HP 8000 printer. For example, it would be great if we could use normal (80g) paper and not has to use (HP) 90g paper, as this prevents us from using the duplexer and only print on one side.

Thanks for the advice to contact HP tech support!
I have tried in multiple ways since November 2009 to contact HP, when I got the first (of 4) printers. The first 3 printers was subsequently replaced.
Finally in late June 2010 I got the message that there was coming an firmware update for Windows, but not for Mac's. The firmware should improve among other things the paper pick up (load paper issue) and the print-heads life.
I have applied the Windows firmware on the printer from a pc, but still seems to have load-paper issues, even using HP Bright White paper, when printing from Mac's. I have not tested the printing from a pc, but assumes that a firmware upgrade the printer, and are not specific to a certain OS.

Firmware update: "The device is not connected to the USB por

Hi, I have a MuVo TX SE GB and I tried to load the new .22.03e firmware on it with a Windows XP SP2 PC. But when I connected the device, and started the firmware updater, it searched for a minute or so, and then the reset question appeared. I clicked OK and then I heard the USB sounds and the new hardware wizard appeared. I followed the wizard, but when it was installing the drivers, a message: "The device is not connected to the USB port" appeared, and the firmware updater closed. The hardware installed fine. But when I try to load the firmware again, the reset question doesn't appear, but I hear the USB sounds, and i get the same message again. I also tried connecting the player in recovery mode but that doesn't help. The player won't turn on. When I connect it, the player is listed in My computer, but I can't open it. What should I do, and how can I load new firmware properly?

I am having the same type of problem trying to upgrade some firmware on my microphoto. I would love to get input from some of the guru's out there , Have you tried emailing customer support and asking them? I am waiting for their repy but just bouncing ideas off the forum in the meantime.

Creative Support. What R U Doing About The Firmware Update Iss

This post is primarily aimed at Creative Support.
Like many other out there that have a Zen player, i recently decided to upgrade my 40Gb Zen Touch's firmware from .0.03 to the latest PlayforSure version 2..0.
This is what i did on my Dell p.c.
) Upgraded my Win Media Player from version 9 to 0.
2) Backed up all my mp3 data to the HDD.
3) Erased all of the mp3 data from the player.
4) Connected the player to my p.c via USB ( 2.0 ).
5) Ran the firmware update, and selected to proceed with the upgrade.
During this process it warned me that the player may reboot a number of times during the 5min upgrade. The player rebooted twice, but on the 2nd time the update software couldn't initialize the player. I left this for about 5mins, to no joy.
I stopped the update via the close button and disconnected my player. When rebooted this shows the error "Firmware Problem" and proceed's to the Recovery Mode screen.
If i choose the "Reload Firmware" option this proceeds to Erase the firmware and then states "Start firmware update now". Even though the firmware software is on my desktop and the player connected to the p.c it fails to reload the firmware.
Now.... On my p.c, if i go into "My Computer", the player is clearly linked and present as an other linked device. However if i run the firmware update software from the desktop it say's "Your player is not connected, please connect your player".
This is a contradiction since the fact that my computer successfully detects the connected player and Media Player 0 also recognises that it is connected.
Like many other's out there we have paid good money for your products and expect a bit of commitment back to resolve these issues. For now i have player that might as well be a book-end.
Questions to Creative Support:
) Are you fully aware of the amount Zen owners experiencing this problem?
2) Are you working on a fix for this update problem?
3) If yes to question 2, when are we likely to see the results of this?
Regards

Wish I had seen this thread before attempting to update my firmware to the SurePlay version.
This is what I did.
I downloaded the Firmware, downloaded the extra software and download Windows Media 0.
I ran the firmware update and connected my player to the computer, no problems.
It said the player would reboot several times and on the 2nd or 3rd, it would no longer connect my device. It would tell me that there were no drivers for the device.
I tried re-booting the player several times, as it will now only boot into recovery.
I have re-installed the drivers, I have even re-verted back to the original drivers from the CD, but it now will not even connect. If I can't connect the device, I can't put any firmware on the Zen, which means I can't use it at all now.
I have been through the knowledge base, but even narrowing down my search to only Zen Touch players, I get several pages of irrelevant information.
I have e-mailed Creative and will see what response I get and I have also posted on another forum.
There must be someone out there that can help sort this, it was an excellent present to me and now its not working
Thanks

Incompatible after the firmware update

I had missing the dictionary (including the icon on the screen) and chinese language currently stored in my nokia 6680 after the firmware update. what is the problems?

Yes I m using one of the default themes.
I have even done the re-installation of the same firmware version again, it did not work.
Each time I flash the firmware, installed applications become unworkable although the icons still remained in the menu. IT is always a great hassle to have to re-install all applications over again.
tsk.

Is Apple going to release a security update for Snow Leopard to patch the new 'bash' bug?

What are the chances we will see Apple release a security update to patch this bash bug vulnerability? I really love snow leopard and don't want to update. At the same time, I don't want my computer to be vulnerable! Apple is still selling snow leopard, so are they still maintaining it?

OSx 10.6.8 IS INFECTED TOO -- news says ALL for about 25 YEARS !
I posted a site link -- check the thread.
10.6 does have the bash bug (I confirmed that a few replies back in this thread, and I mentioned the 25 years in another reply to this thread). But that is NOT an infection. Bash did not catch it. The bug was not put there on purpose. And the bug itself does not actively do anything. It is a flaw that can allow a web server using server side scripts written in the bash shell scripting language, or a server side script that invokes bash. Or a user that allows anonymous remote ssh logins. Or has enabled the CUPS web management interface.
All of which was said before in this thread. Along with why it is most likely not a problem for the typical Mac consumer.
This is a serious problem for many web servers. And there are instructions for patching bash (see above).
The typical Mac user does not do the things that put them at risk. And if they know how to set their Mac up to put themselves at risk, they are knowledgable enough to follow the patching instructions.

Any thoughts on the new Bluetooth Firmware Update?

First of all, happy 2006 to all.
I just downloaded and installed a Bluetooth Firmware Update upon running the Software Update utility. Right after I decided to see online what should I expect from it. According to Apple's post, such a download is not for our PB model.
Anyway, it's probably too soon to tell, but after brief testing I feel that at least the connection's kept at a larger distance. I hope to be right because sometimes the connection seems to be quite weak. I use my Bluetooth Sony Ericsson k700i as a remote control with many losses in the connection.
George...

I too downloaded this updater via Software Update. Upon restart the Bluetooth Firmware Updater application launched and I proceed to try and install. After sitting there for about 10 minuntes I clicked the Quit button since it was not finding any device. It asked if I was sure I wanted to quit because the firmware was not updated yet. After quitting the updater, my powerbook's (1.5GHz 15" Aluminum) bluetooth is no longer available. The preference pane is gone, the menu bar item says "Bluetooth is unavailable".
I restarted, deleted all the bluetooth preferences, and still nothing. I now have bluetoothless powerbook.
If anyone has any additional suggestions, please let me know. I am going to try a few other things in the mean time (inlcuding zapping the PRAM).
