How do I disable Verizon Message Center?!?!

I am getting pop up ads on my sceen EVERY DAY that float over all applications and windows. These ads are trying to sell me Verizon Internet Security Suite. How do I get rid of these annoying ads?
I do NOT have any verizon progams on my computer, though I used to have Verizon In Home Agent installed, but I uninstalled this a long time ago.
The program in Task Manager is "Verizon Message Center" and the process is "DisplayAgent.exe"
The message text is:
Verizon Internet Security Suite

- Allows safe searching and shopping with SiteAdvisor®
- Protects children with customizable level of access with Family Protection parental controls

Try removing IHT_MessageCenter (or something like that) from Add or Remove Programs. I just did it, so I'm not sure if it will work, but it looks like it should.
I'd also recommend sorting by publisher and uninstalling everything from Verizon.

Upload saved emails from Thunderbird to Verizon Message Center?

I have used T-Bird for Verizon email for a long time. Now, for sync reasons with my Verizon phone, I would like to switch to Verizon Message Center. Can I upload my saved emails to VMC? How about contacts and calendar? (There are instructions for POP like Gmail, etc, but not for downloaded/saved emails.)
Thanks.

In general no, it doesn't accept uploads. You could send a copy to yourself.

How to permanently disable this message: "Press Esc to exit full screen." (by Adobe Flash Player) in Mac's Safari Browser?

Hello everyone,
I have been searching for sometime (without any success) for a solution to permanently remove this annoying message: "Press Esc to exit full screen."
Whenever I go to full screen mode, watching any video on YouTube, BBC, CNN (or many other websites which use Adobe Flash Player for streaming video) I have to bare seeing this message for several seconds until it fades away. Seeing this message once or twice would have been okay, but as we all watch many videos on a daily basis on internet, after weeks, months and now years seeing this message over and over again many times every day, it becomes very annoying, and I find myself rewinding many videos to their beginning after this message fades away to be able to watch it from the beginning without anything obstructing it!
Does anyone know how to "permanently" disable this message from appearing?
I am using the latest version of Safari 6.0 on the latest version of OS X (Mountain Lion 10.8.1), and have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (Plug-in version 11.4.402.265) installed on my new MacBook Pro 15" with Retina Display.
Thanks,
Ally

Thanks Carolyn,
I am attaching a screenshot here for you to see that this setting was already set to what you suggested. I didn't need to change it as it was like this even before I post this message.
So the problem still presists and unfortunately your suggestion is not a solution to this probelm.
Last night I did more reseach and found a discussion in Adobe website, it seems a lot of other people have the same issue, and even started a discussion in Adobe website about it. But unfortunately Adobe refuses to address it and enable the end user at least to have an option to turn this message off from displaying permanently on his/her computer.
I am writing down the url links for the two posts regarding this issue on Adobe's website:
Link #1: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/921270
Link #2: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3058752
Hopefully more people will get involved and ultimately we will either get Adobe's attention, or someone will find a "hack" and post it here for all of us. I have found some suggested "hacks" for Windows environment (you can simply google it, I am sure you will find them too). But so far I haven't seen anything for Mac's Safari browser.

MS Word issues with verizon message center

It seems that when I have the "Verizon Message Center" open with e-mails displayed, I have serious problems with MS Word - whether is is open or not. This has occured with both Office 2007 and 2010.
Word reports a number of errors about opening the environment, wants to save changes to the Normal template, etc. The problem is particularly pronounced when attempting to attach a Word file to an e-mail.
Has anyone seen this? Any thoughts?

welcome to the world of a pop server. They do not function they way you want. You would need to move to a imap server like gmail for the functionality you are looking for.

How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone?

How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone -- so I do not receive any texts. I do not have nor currently want an AT&T text plan, and I really don't want to be charged .20 for the text messages that will inevitably be sent my way from friends & coworkers who do not know I don't want texts.
AT&T had a link only for blocking spam texts, but I don't think this will stop standard SMS texts.
Anyone do this? Does this involve a call to AT&T. There must be a way to disable it, no?
Thanks in advance!

You would have to ask AT&T if they can turn off your text capabilities.

Nope, that doesn't actually do the trick. It might keep i messages from going to your i phone but still won't allow them to go to your new device.

How do you disable the Notification Center in iOS 8?

How do you disable the Notification Center in iOS 8? It seems the update has killed this ability.

Are you in the "today" or "notifications" part of notification center?
Settings--notifications works for the notifications part but doesn't control the today part of notification center. For that you have to drag down notification center, tap on today, and choose edit from the bottom. From there you can turn off widgets, activate new ones, and change the display order.

How can i disable the message "leave page / stay on page"

How can i disable the message "leave page / stay on page" please explain step by step if if it involved inserting java script.

These three userscripts are along the same lines as the one link to above:
* [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/180752 AllowPageClose] - recently posted, appears to run a timer to watch for changes and make sure it's really dead
* [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/121551 Disable - remove onbeforeunload]
* [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/98260 Kill Sure Want To Nav Away]
None of the four scripts has any mechanism for site exceptions built into it, but you can make exceptions using Greasemonkey's user settings tab. You do that using the script's Options dialog. You can do that from the Add-ons page, User Scripts category. Either:
* Monkey toolbar button > Manage User Scripts
* Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Alt+a) > User Scripts
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > User Scripts
Then click the Options button for the relevant script. On the User Settings tab, in the Excluded Pages box, you can enter the site that you want to carve out of the script. Note that in order to match all pages on the site, you need to use the wildcard character (*) as shown in the attached screen shot.

How do I disable the messages setup window at startup?

Everytime I start my Macbook and launch Safari, a window pops up asking me to set up messages with my email accounts. I do not want to use this feature. How do I disable this window?

Hi,
In System Preferences > iCloud or Internet accounts disable the Messages tick box for that email.
I am presuming at least one is an Apple ID that can be used with AIM (All Apple IDs issued by Apple - @Mac.com and iCloud linked @me.com and @icloud.com) as they are also Valid AIM Screen Names from and agreement that is now over 10 years old.
Google Mail IDs can become valid GoogleTalk IDs is Talk is enabled at Google's accounts settings web page.
Facebook IDs can be connected to Facebook Chat IDs if you enable Chat at Facebook.
Both run Jabber servers and can be used in Messages.
Safari will list some of these in File Menu > Share which may be effected by the above settings (I use Firefox rather than Safari)

How do I disable Facebook Message location features in iOS7? All of the information I seem to find on the subject is outdated. Thanks!

Whenever I send a message in Facebook it attaches my location which is a bit creepy, yet all of the information I've found about how to shut this feature off seems to be outdated. How do I disable the location services for the Facebook app in the latest version of iOS?

I've tried looking there but do I disable ALL location services (wouldn't that effect every app?) There doesn't seem to be a specific option to disable Facebook location services specifically.

How do I DISABLE text message forwarding between my iPad and iPhone?

I want to DISABLE text forwarding from my iPhone 5 (IOS 8.1.1) to my IPad 4 (IOS 8.1.1) but....I have already tried the following (so PLEASE do not make these suggestions):
I want to be able to text from my iPhone and those text messages (either SMS or iMessage) NOT go to my iPad. BUT, I want to also text from my iPad and those messages NOT go to my iPhone. I want the text messages to stay on each device independently.
Since I still want to be able to text from my iPad, I do NOT want to turn off iMessage. If I turn off iMessage, I cannot text from my iPad.
I disabled HANDOFF
I disabled TEXT MESSAGE FORWARDING (from my iPhone)
Creating a new Apple ID is not an option since there is other data that I need between devices.
Having followed these steps, I still cannot stop the texts from forwarding between devices. Any ideas?

On your iPad, can you deselect your phone number as an option in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at and then add an email address at which you can be reached? My iPod Touch is set up to use an email address (I have 6 email accounts) and the messages on my iPod do not sync with my other devices.
I Do have to say that it has been ages since I set up the Touch for Messages, but I am running iOS 8 on it. I can't remember if I had to sign out of messages and start all over again on the touch in order to deselect the iPhone number.
