How to get rid of flash talking from hijacking my browser?

Help... After three months I now have a flash talking type of virus that derails my games etc when using browser on the iPad Air.  I've tried to clear and do what others suggested but am obviously not getting something. Right!  Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks much :)

Unless your iPad has been jailbroken, it's highly unlikely that your iPad has a virus or any sort of malware. I don't know what you've tried, but if this is a browser hijack, clearing the Cookies and Data (Settings -> Safari) and the Website Data (Settings -> Safari -> Advanced) shoud cure it. If you continue to have your web surfing hijacked, it may be your WiFi router that's been poisoned, in which case it will need to be reset.
Regards.

  • How to get the HTML Source code from the active browser ?

    Hi All,
    I need to get the HTML Source code from the active browser (IE). I tried with the below code, but I am not able to get the Source code all the time, with respect to the different applications (http or https) and the user authentication has to be changes in few applications (_I dont know or not able to given that in the below code_). More over there is also a dependence of the URL to get the HTML Source code.
    Therefore what I feel is getting the HTML Source code from the given or active browser will be consistent than the URL. Since the Source code is available in the browser (IE) . Please help me with a sample code to achieve this . . . !
    HTMLDocument doc=(HTMLDocument) kit.createDefaultDocument();
    doc.putProperty("IgnoreCharsetDirective", Boolean.TRUE);
    URL url = new URL(strURL);
    Reader HTMLReader = new InputStreamReader(url.openConnection().getInputStream());
    kit.read(HTMLReader, doc, 0);Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Jothi Venkatachalam

    The simple answer is: you don't.
    Not only is it simply not possible, but the entire concept of "the active browser" doesn't exist.
    You were on the right track with your code to retrieve the page directly from the server, but as you noticed that code will only work for regular http connections.
    For https and other protocols you will need to use appropriate libraries for each protocol. Something like Apache Commons can help you with that. There are networking libraries in there for a lot of commonly used protocols.

  • How to get rid of old folders from Network window?

    I'm not sure if this is a network question or a Finder question ...
    In my Network window are a bunch of old folders, left over from a couple of MS Windows machines that I touched at some point but will never meet again. I can't delete them. Their permissions are set to read-only. I tried to give myself delete permissions with chmod but was told it was a read-only file system. So how do I get rid of these old items?
    Thanks for the help.
    Paloma

    I have more information which my be helpful. I think the directories which are created in /Network are in part originated from a list of previous workgroups.
    Open Directory Access, authenticate, then select SMB/CIFS and click Configure... . The top menu displays a list of workgroups. What I seem to get is a list of all the workgroups I've ever been connected to and this list largely corresponds with the directories created in /Network. Sadly, you can't delete these workgroups from Directory Access.
    More intriguingly, the directories go away when I'm not connected to a network so somewhere in the system there is a list of workgroups stored away. The only problem is where? I heven't been able to determine this yet.
    Also, I think workgroups and domains may be interchangeable here.

  • How to get rid of genieo tool from mac?

    I cannot get rid of genieo from safari. I have change the preferences on safari. It doesnt appear when I open safari but if i am searching for something it comes as my default search browser

    There is an uninstaller, but as the developer is not trustworthy, you shouldn't rely on it. I suggest the tedious procedure below to disable Genieo.
    Back up all data. You must know how to restore from a backup even if the system becomes unbootable. If you don't know that, stop here and ask for guidance.
    Quit the Genieo application, if it's running. Force quit if necessary.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /etc/launchd.conf
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.
    If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder may open with a file selected, or the file may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that it doesn't exist. If it does exist, it's a configuration file created or replaced by the Genieo installer. Any software installer that does this should be considered ipso facto malware. Move the file to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
    IMPORTANT: If the launchd.conf file exists, you must move it to the Trash it before continuing. Otherwise the systemwill become unbootable. In that case, restore from your backup and start over. That's how badly Genieo has sabotaged your system.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Applications/Genieo.app
    /Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
    /Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
    /usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib
    Again, some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file doesn't exist. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    Reboot and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have rebooted.
    Your web browser(s) should now function normally, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including one called "Spigot" if it's present. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    The Genieo installer may also install the "Silverlight" web plugin from Microsoft. If you have no use for that plugin, you can remove it according to Microsoft's instructions. Don't remove it if you subscribe to "Netflix" or any other video-streaming service that uses it.
    This procedure may leave a few files behind, but it should deactivate Genieo. Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install it. Chances are you got it from one of the Internet's open sewers such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad embedded in a page on some other site.
    Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the developer sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." If that happens, don't believe anything he says, but feel free to tell him what you think of his scam.

  • How to get rid of double quotes from generated DDL

    When you click on a table and then SQL, the genrated DLL script has double quotes around the schema name, tablename, column name...... Is there a way to get rid of them ?

    I don't personally care about backward compatibility ... I am not going backwards. I hate the quotes, they take space, we DO NOT use spaces in our naming conventions. And I do NOT want the user's name in the code generated. As it is, I have to export what SQL Developer says, strip out the quotes, reformat the whole thing, then reload it.
    So ... is there a way to turn off this "feature" in SQL Developer? I looked in Preferences but could find no reference to it.
    Thanks, whomever, for your response / time.

  • How to get rid of rpc.html pop up when browser opens

    when using firefox with my comcast home page, i get a pop up saying you have chosen to open rpc.html. how can i get rid of this?

    My guess is that there is a "hot spot" that when the cursor rolls over this area it triggers the download of the obnoxious rpc.html coding that drops into a person's download file. Now why someone would go to the trouble of setting up this type of non-consequential ruse if beyond me. Maybe this is just an errant html code glitch? It seems to be localized between Firefox and Comcast (Xfinity). Funny that one message says that each side to this problem is pointing the accusing finger toward the other. Glad, for a change, the computer user is not incorrectly targeted as the source of the problem.
    But the issue of a set of volunteers working on the problem and not being able to fix it is disturbing. Hope they (whomever) can solve the puzzle.
    I am finding my computer is not able to download Open Office for some reason. Spent ten hours trying to figure this out. Just gave up. I like Firefox but if I continue to have these types of problems, even if not proven to be related, I am going to have to find another solution, somewhere.
