hello, please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    Right-click or control-click the line and select

    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.

  • How do I get rid of Firefox Ads that are constantly popping up whenever I click to another website or in the same website?

    The moment I open Firefox, a "Firefox" AD pops up. Anytime I navigate Facebook or it's apps a "Firefox" AD pops up! Anytime I go to any website, a "Firefox" AD pops up! They are genuine "Firefox" ADS, I've checked in your Troubleshoot guide! I can't do anything without these ads interrupting, slowing and stopping up my activity! I've also gone to the "Pop-Ups" page and made sure Firefox is not an "exception" to pop-ups!
    Please remove them, it is harassment! I don't want anyone's ADS!

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

  • I just upgraded from PE 7 to PE 12.  Most of my editing options are grayed out. What's up with this?

    Why are most of my editing options grayed out in PE 12?  I am a painter and I need to crop and edit my paintings.  Specifically, I need to distort them to bring them back into square.  I know that has a technical name but don't know it.

    What a weird thing that I had to be in "expert" mode.  I'll never know why software manufacturers need to make things more complicated.
    Thanks!

  • Is it possible to disable some popups from FEP Client on the desktop. But how to disable popups from real time protection

    Is it possible to disable some popups from FEP Client on the desktop. But how to disable popups from real time protection. This is so that end users who are non technical are not disturbed and only the I.T is aware of the viruses in teh environment.Shahid Roofi

    You could set policies which when a malware detected an action perform automatically without user interaction but there is no GPO which stop the notification, one reason could be that when notification keep appearing, then user will know something is wrong
    otherwise why FEP should display any warning.

  • Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.

    Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.  There is now only a short three item menu:
    Previously there was a longer menu (like the one when right clicking an item on a Safari page):
    I've looked in Preferences and at all the Mail dropdown items but can't find any way to get the old menu back (or why it changed).  In particular, I miss the "copy image" item which allowed me to copy an item image into a new email for forwarding.  I've got two email accounts, an IMAP and a POP.  The behavior is the same with both.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Your screen shots are not visible to me.  But I think I understand your question.
    Several thoughts come to mind:

    You can still, of course, simply forward the entire email message containing the image.
    You could also use the "Save Attachment ..." feature available when you right click and copy and paste from there once the image is saved.
    Less likely, you could also use the "Share" feature available when you right click, though I suspect it may not offer sharing options that you would like.

  • Popup from the popup

    Hi Experts,
    I'mcreating a popup in a standard way from a normal View called 'MAIN':
    lr_popup = lr_window_manager->create_window(
        modal               = abap_true
        window_name         = 'WND_POPUPMAIN'
        title               = lv_text
        close_button        = abap_true
        button_kind         = if_wd_window=>co_buttons_yesno
        message_type        = if_wd_window=>CO_MSG_TYPE_NONE
        close_in_any_case   = abap_false
    lr_popup->subscribe_to_button_event(
                       button            = if_wd_window=>co_button_yes
                       button_text       = lv_text
                       action_name       = 'CPY'
                       action_view       = lr_view_controller
                       is_default_button = abap_true ).
    In the Action handler of the YES button (It is in the MAIN View),  I made some operations, then I'd like to close this popup then open a new one, which shows the errors  (if there are errors) in another popup.
      lr_nd_errors->bind_table( lt_errors ).
        lr_api_comp_controller = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
        lr_window_manager = lr_api_comp_controller->get_window_manager( ).
        lr_popup = lr_window_manager->create_window(
          modal               = abap_true
          window_name         = 'WND_ERROR'
          title               = lv_text
          close_button        = abap_true
          button_kind         = if_wd_window=>CO_BUTTONS_CLOSE
          message_type        = if_wd_window=>CO_MSG_TYPE_ERROR
          close_in_any_case   = abap_true
    The problem is: that this second popup doesn't open. 
    My question is: IS this possible in WenDynpro? (open poopup from another one) If no then what do you think, how can I show the error table?
    Thanks

  • HT203210 Where is the show popup from network on System Preferences?

    Where is the show popup from network on System Preferences?
    Was checking Airport support for PPPoE disconnected message which directd me to Show Popup on network in System preferences and I had 1 option.  Show all.
    Would love additional info on why I keep getting this message - Could not find a PPPoE server.  Which interrupts wifi service to Network.

    PPPoE is a protocol used to authenticate a user prior to gaining Internet access used by certain ISPs. Typically it is used for DSL Internet service. PPPoE would be configured on the device that is directly connected to the DSL modem. This could be a router or computer.
    Do you currently have or previously had DSL Internet service? What is the make & model of the device that you currently have the AirPort Extreme base station connected to by Ethernet? Which exact model of the Extreme do you have?

    Since you're using a non-public build of JDeveloper, you should be using a non-public forum.

    Johnnyontherocks it is likely you installed an updated version of the Adobe Application Manager.  Remove all copies of Adobe Creative software from the computer and reinstall to downgrade the installation.

  • How do I stop popups from coming up I have it checked in the box already but still having problems

    How do I stop popups from coming up? I have checked the box for popups already.

    My computer is running slower also! The popups are ads & it says hide ad & when I do it opens it up.
    If these ads have a black border on one side with a square "Hide Ad" button with an 'X' in it, then you are infected with the Downlite adware, at least. You may have more than one piece of adware installed.
    If the instructions in the Adware Removal Guide that Kappy referred you to are too tough to follow, that page also has a link to an Adware Removal Tool that will automatically remove Downlite and anything else for you. If you don't want to trust some app that a random guy online referred you to (which is perfectly understandable), the manual instructions will do the job just as well... you could always have a tech-savvy friend help you follow them.
