I was recently attacked by registry dr and conduit malware. Malware has been removed, but since then thunderbird is slow and doesn't respond. How do I fix it?

I was attached by registry doctor and several conduit malware programs. I had the malware removed from my computer. But ever since them thunderbird has been very slow or not resonding at all. l have uninstalled and reinstalled thunderbird twice. The first time it seemed like it fixed the problem for a few minutes, but then it stopped respondig.
I have tried opening in safe mode, and the first time it seemed like it worked better, but before long it stopped responding.
Any idea what the problem is and what to do about it?

See if any of this helps. My guess is that it is your McAfee.

  • My Macbook pro won't open downloaded programs. it just opens the code it was written in using the text and edit app. How can I fix this?

    My Macbook pro won't open downloaded programs, it just opens the code it was written in using the text and edit app. How can I fix this? I just bought the computer last month so this is some what frustrating.

    If you are downloading .exe files, those are Windows programs, and will not run on your Mac unless you install Windows on it.  (That is possible, if you need one of those apps.)

  • We have about 5 devices in our family.  My daughter's and mine don't work anymore, ostensibly because we have "too many". It has been so long since I loaded them in, I don't remember how I registered them.  What can I do to reactivate IPOD, SHUFFLE, ETC.

    We have about five devices in our family which have been deactivated.  It has been so long since I registered them -years- and I don't recall  how I did it.  For instance, my daughter's IPod from when she was young doesn't work and neither does her IPod Nano.  She can't get any of her music.  My Shuffle doesn't work.  I am embarrassed that I feel like having Apple products is too complicated for me.  I can barely get through all the levels of logging in, let alone how to make the devices work again.  Somewhere along the way I seem to remember getting a message that we had too many devices on our account.  Which account?  I have given up on this so many times and now it is years later and I am trying again.  How can I get some meaningful customer service to use the products and music I bought and paid for?

    I think in previous incarnations, people would have jumped all over you for your approach, but the Lion operating has generated decidely mixed or even negative reviews from users. So no one seems to disagree with you. I think many folks are simply staying with 10.6 and waiting to see if OS 10.8 is better than 10.7.  I've mostly avoided upgrading OS's, or when I do I jump over one version completely because I've waited long enough that I'm two versions behind. 
    Here are the things that will/would motivate me to update the OS:
    * incompatibility with MS-Office (I'm not a MS-Office fan but I do need to use it)
    * incompatibility with flash or other tools needed to view modern web content (this might be a while as I am still using several different Macs, the oldest being a 2005 PPC iMac with 10.5.8 and an fairly old/outdated flash, but it seems to still do ok with most web content). Our 2008 Intel Core 2 Duo iMac runs 10.6.8 and can do just about anything we need -- like you, I decided not to go to Lion because it didn't look like much of an improvement.
    * incompatibility with various commercial software, such as TurboTax, or with web sites I use to manage financial accounts and such things
    We got my daughter a new Macbook Air just before she started college, and Lion plus a new Macbook Air model came out a month later. I am glad now about it actually, I think some of the Lion "issues" would have annoyed her greatly (especially the odd dropping of wireless access points under Lion, everyone is on wireless at colleges now). I'm hoping that the 10.8 OS will be better than Lion. We had (probably still have) a certificate for a free Lion upgrade but we decided not to use it.

  • PDF/s is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged, it was sent as an email attachment and wasnt correctly decoded, how do i fix this?

    The PDF's were saved using acrobat 9 pro. they were sent through e-mail as attachments, and they are stored in a network shared folder. our users cannot access the PDF's and i would like to know if this is a simple fix?

    Hi TRAVIS1SWO,
    You may try first download PDF  to the local computer and then try to open.
    Also, may i know using which application, you are trying to open the document. Is it Reader /Acrobat and what is current version installed. If you have Reader XI.
    The moment you open the PDF document Reader/Acrobat check for damage and tries to fix to some extent. And if the files is corrupted enough, then it through the same message.
    Share a file with me, using private message option:: How Do I Send  Private Message. if that is all right with you i would like to have a look

  • I was recently prompted to update iPhoto and make changes to the library.  I did it but it keeps hanging up in step 5 or 6 and won't complete the cycle.  I have used force quit, rebooted and started again several times.  How do i get this to work?

    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    If that fails:
    Restore from your back up, repair the Library and try again.

  • My father was prompted to download an 'update' which appeared randomly while on his ipad2. since then the screen shows an itune icon and plug. Access has been restricted ever since. is that a virus? and how can he rectify it?

    My father was prompted to download an 'update' which appeared randomly while on his ipad2. since then the screen shows an itune icon and plug. Access has been restricted ever since. is that a virus? and how can he rectify it?

    No, it is not a virus! Not every unexplained occurrence in life is a virus. Microsoft has a lot to answer for by brainwashing users if its operating systems into thinking anything unusual must be the result of a 'virus'.
    It was most likely the recently released iOS system software update that for whatever reason did not complete.

  • HT1296 I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour.

    I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour and there is a downlaod symbol in front of the song title.  what do i do next??  They play on my iphone and from the itunes library but not from my ipod touch.

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.
