Erroneous pop ups about service expiration
I am getting messages on my TV screen and popups on my computer telling me my Verizon service has run out and I must renew now, though I renewed well in advance of the contract expiration as reflected on my account page. I find this hounding very annoying and time consuming, as I have to go and check to my sure my account page information is correct. Please stop doing this!
I've had similar experience....except I actually renewed TWICE because when I called to check on why I was getting these messages I was told "the order wasn't properly processeed" and I was told I had to renew again, which I did. Now the same thing is happening...popups on computer and on TV "Renew Now, You are Out of Service" ....I call again and am told the same thing again!!!! My Services page shows me without a plan in force.
After the 5th or 6th chat and 2nd renewal I got a follow up call from the Satisfaction Assurance Dept. I told him all the baloney that happened ....including that prior to renewing the first time I was told I had to renew BEFORE the expiration date in order to get the "early bird special" rate of $124 (even though webpage stated that rate with no mention of "early bird." AND when I would renew early the new agreement would start that day, NOT at the end of my current agreement...thus shaving off about 3 weeks of service for which I would pay for. I refused to accept those terms and went into serial chat mode. About the 5th chat I was told....Oh no, you can renew today and it will take effect on the day after your current agreement expires! I renewed on those terms, but have since been jacked around with "it wasn't processed properly...."
I'm still working with the Satisfaction Assurance Dept hoping I can get satisfaction. He has assured me the renewal did take effect, but can't explain why I keep getting popups on line and on TV, and why the representatives can't see it and why my Services page doesn't show it!!!

I get pop ups about updating my Java version but my system says I do have the right version. Which version of Java is the right one?
Most likely, you have a web plugin that depends on the Java runtime distributed by Apple, such as the Facebook video calling plugin or the "NexDef" plugin for watching baseball streams. If you no longer need the plugin, remove it. Otherwise, install Java.

Pop-ups. I have deleted cookies, checked security etc. worried about malware.
Hello!
I recently tried to reinstall MS word but I think I must have come across a fraudulent site. Now I get a pop-up almost every click! The pop-ups seem quite intelligent, for example, if I search malware I get a pop-up for MacKeeper (which I would never click on), or if I go to Netflix I get Megaflix an so on..
It is criminally expensive to speak to a specialist on the phone, and I have already deleted cookies, uninstalled any software I don't recognise, checked security settings, reinstalled adblocker; I don't know what else I can do...
My browser is Safari, but I checked Chrome and got the same results.
HELP ME?!You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

I keep getting pop ups that say my subscription has expired? I have paid and have credit because this has happened before and i paid 3 times. Can I just buy a download instead of paying a monthly subscription?
We often find this happens when the wrong software gets run (so the subscription doesn't apply).
So,to start with what exactly is your subscription for - please check your account details and confirming email? -
Modify about:config and allow pop ups for multiple systems
What I need to accomplish:
security.mixed_content.block_active_content = False
Allow all pop-ups from salesforce.com
I need to do this for 70 computers within my domain.
To modify about:config, I've tried editing user.js (I had to create the user.js file as it did not exist in my profile folder) using the batch file below.
Batch File to edit user.js
cd /D "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default"
echo user_pref("security.mixed_content.block_active_content", "false");>>user.js
I've read that the permissions.sqlite file can be edited to allow the pop ups, is there a way for me to edit that from a batch file?
Are these modifications possible without having to visit each user?You can also use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to specify new (default) values for refs.
*http://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
See also:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
I don't know of a way to easily modify the permissions.sqlite file to add an allow pop-up exception.<br />
You would need an SQLite manager program that accepts command line input to add such a record.<br />
The main problem would be to get the ID value to be used.

For about seven months now (from June 2013) I have pop ups asking me private question while masking themselves according to the results of my browsing. Sometimes they're streaming "news" and other stuff that I didn't ask for. It also may be tabs and not pop ups, that are doing the same. First I was thinking that this is kind of "infection", but all my screenings failed to detect anything answering that my computer is clean. I considered changing the browser, but my computer is weak and your browser is light, differently from Microsoft's one. So now I just close those things as quickly as I can. But, sometimes, when I walk away, it shows whole "movies" to no one, while wasting my resources and quotas.
I just wonder if it is possible to get rid of this stuff. Is it infection or part of the design? And in case it is an "infection", is anybody interested to investigate in order to protect your browser from similar attacks in the future?Your "More System Details" didn't include information on your extensions, but one of those could be responsible.
Could you check for unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt that something is valuable and useful, disable it.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that change how Firefox behaves? -

Wrong SSL Cert pop ups in outlook
Hi
We have a client with exchange 2010 and we just got a new SSL cert from Go Daddy and installed it. Weird thing is even before we ordered and installed that go daddy cert they were getting pop ups in out look for an expired cert which is from a place "asdl.newzealand.co.nz"
when we are in Canada and I can't find anything anywhere that refers to that.
Can anyone please guide me where to start looking?
thanks.Hi,
Based on my experience, the certificate credential is always caused by that there is some connection using the name "asdl.newzealand.co.nz".
Thus, except with check the property Autodiscoverserviceinternaluri, I also recommend you check the URLs for all web services. And we can use the tool Test Email AutoConfiguration and check the URLs it gets.
For more information about using Test Email AutoConfiguration, you can refer to the following article:
