Just installed Malwarebyte and i am still getting unwanted pop ups and new windows.

You can supplement your Malwarebytes Anti-Malware scan with some other tools Firefox users have found effective. See: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
But it also makes sense to check a couple of things manually.
(1) Extensions installed in Firefox
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then take a careful look and disable everything you either don't recognize or don't use regularly. If Firefox prompts you to restart to make the change effective, you can do that as the last step after completing your review of the list.
(2) Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program
Click the "Installed on" column heading to bring the most recent infections, I mean, additions, to the top. This is useful in revealing bundles that may have snuck unwanted software onto your PC. Remove everything you don't remember choosing intentionally.
Any improvement?

  • I have just installed ios6 and some of the icons on the front screen have gone, how do i get them back?

    i have just installed ios6 and now some of the icons i had have gone from the front screen, how do i get them back ?

    Widgets are located in the folder, users/"user name"/library/widgets/
    Whilst holding down the option key in finder, and selecting the library under the "go" menu, you can access your library within Lion.
    If you have a working Time Machine backup, you can restore those missing files back to the widgets folder. If you don't, and your widgets folder is empty, then they are indeed gone (unless they are still in the trash). You would then have to re-download them from where they came.
    If everything is there, then just click the "+" symbol at the lower left corner of the dashboard screen to add them back to the window.

  • Just installed CS6 and trying to update, Windows 8.1 tried disabling security still not updating. Version 13.0 any suggestions ? Thank you

    Once in awhile, they do have bug fixes for CS6. The only thing I can think of that was an upgrade for CS6 was a newer version of camera raw. For now they are allowing CS6 to have the latest version of camera raw, but when they are done with supporting CS6, I imagine that will be the last of the upgrades. I don't know of any dates, but I heard it wasn't for a long time if at all. So I guess we will all have to wait and see.
    As for getting updates, I think you will like the manager. It makes it much easier. Frankly I didn't know the manager worked on the perpetual license. I knew it worked on the subscription. So it is good to know that it works for you as well.

  • Just installed Lion and the Magic TrackPad and I am having a problem with one click commands.  I have to hit the pad fairly hard with one finger to get it to accept the command.  Is this normal, is there another way that I am suppose to execute commands?

    No you just need to turn on Tap to Click. Go into System Preferences - Trackpad and click the Point to Click tab and select the first box which will say Tap to Click and you should be in business.

    Welcome. I am using Photoshop CS5 and this works fine for me. Possibly Adobe has changed this in CS6. Hopefully, LarryHN will have further suggestions. Best.

  • Just installed iOS5 and iCloud on iPod Touch, and in Settings, I can't get the on/off switch to stay on for Automatic Downloads.

    I just installed iOS5 and iCloud on 4th gen iPod Touch. All is well EXCEPT that I can't get the on/off switch in "Settings" to stay on for automatic downloads of music and apps. Has anyone else had this problem? Am I missing some previous set-up step?
    Thanks for your help.

    to enable icloud you tap "settings" -> "icloud". Make sure you sign in with a valid iCloud Apple-ID. Then you can turn on the various features that are part of iCloud.
    Video or Music Syncing is not a feature of it.  Instead you use itunes in the cloud which let's you re-download purchases. This however depends if the service is available in your country.
    Worldwide only purchased books and apps are supported for free-of-charge-redownload on your devices.

    After spending another two days on pinning down the iTunes 10.5 blank store page problem, here's the solution to be found: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3372617?start=0&tstart=0
    Look out for "japiohelp".
    In short:
    a) press Windows key + "R", enter "cmd", and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter (= runs as admin)
    b) enter "netsh winsock reset" and pres enter
    c) reboot the computer
    and Bob's your uncle.

  • I just installed LV2011 and one dll from my vi won't load with the error "application configuration is incorrect"

    I just installed LV2011 and one dll from my vi won't load with the error "application configuration is incorrect", which is Windows lingo for "missing package dependencies".  All the computers at my company with 2010 loaded seem to do OK.  When I do a Dependencies Walk I get missing Visual C debug dll's missing plus IEshims and wer which both have a whole tree of dependencies missing on my machine.  The Windows install is the same "Windows XP version 2002 Service Pack 3" on my PC and the working PC's. So I'm thinking I have to uninstall 2011 and go back to 2010.  Is this correct?  Those VC debug dll's were installed on the machines with 2010 in them but were not installed in mine.
    I've heard the advice to recompile the dll with debug turned off but I don't have access to the source code.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply.  This at least tells me that going back to LV2010 is not likely to solve the problem.  The missing dll's are:
    MFC90D.dll
    MSVCR90D.dll
    IESHMS.dll
    WER.dll
    And, once again, IESHMS and WER have other dependencies.  So perhaps i need to install the Visual C++ development environment.
    IESHIMS.dll is an Internet Explorer DLL that gets usually delay loaded by shdocvw.dll. As delay load it can not cause DLL load errors but only runtime errors. Maybe your DLL has it as direct dependency but that is unlikely since it does not have a documented interface.
    WER.dll is Windows error reporting for Vista/Win7.
    MFC90D.dll is the Microsoft Foundation classes and MSVCR90D.dll is the MS C runtime library, both as debug variant.
    So all the DLLs you mention are actually MS DLLs! You haven't identified the DLL that you try to access in LabVIEW that causes these error messages. IESHIMS and WER are usually delay loaded by any component that needs it and should not likely be used by non MS code.
    What is the DLL you try to load into LabVIEW and by whom? Get the provider of that DLL to provide you a non Debug build of the DLL. Installing Visual C on all the machines just to make the DLL load is not a solution, besides that it is likely not legal since I doubt you have that many licenses.

  • Firefox crashes when I try to watch a movie type youtube, has just installed nero and Nikon software on my computer

    Firefox crashes when I try to watch a movie type youtube, has just installed nero and Nikon software on my computer. This began shortly after I installed my new CD burner with Nero 9 burning software, about the same time I also installlerade my new Nikon camera software ViewNX2, I ran Avira scan and Microsoft Egan virus scan and they say everything is good in it, he reported a few times, I ran Avira scan of your computer and Microsoft's own Virus Scanning and they say everything is good in it, he reported a few times, tried again now and the sound is heard all the way but the image is still, therefore gentle freezes, got no number on the bug report so I can not say that. Also ask your pardon for errors in language that may be present but hope you understand anyway!

    Have just installed Mavericks and restarted the MacBook Pro. That was 3 hours ago and after logging in, I got my wallpaper and dock, but none of my desktop icons, just the spinning coloured wheel. It's been like that for 2 hours. Is this normal? What should I do, please?
    I tried holding the on/off switch down to make it shut down, but when I turned it back on again, the same thing happened and none of the keys etc makes any difference.
    HELP!!!! Please.

    No, what you're experiencing is not normal.
    Try booting whilst holding down the Shift key - this will allow you to boot into Safe Mode, disabling third-party kernel extensions, etc. Your Mac will be slow to boot and will operate sluggishly. That's normal. If you can get in using Safe Mode then you have some start-up item that doesn't play well with Mavericks.

  • I have just installed iOS7 and now is my Airport no longer working. Very irritating. Has anybody an answer to this problem ?

    Just installed iOS7 and now my Airport express is no longer working. Very frustrating. Who has a solution to this problem.

    I'm curious what's happening for others with Airport Express devices that aren't working. In my case, it's simply now impossible to get sound coming out of it. All my devices and computers initially THINK it should work - they all show the Airport Express. But when I try to play, it doesn't work, with slightly varying responses:
    iPhone 5 and iPad 2, both on iOS7: if I choose the Airport Express, they continue to play as if through the Airport for about 20 seconds (with progress along the little progress/scrub bar), and then just stop playing. No error message or anything.
    On my computer, through iTunes 11.1: it thinks for a while, with the "Connecting to ___'s Airport Express" thing going at the top of the screen, until I get the "An error occurred while connecting to the airplay device ... the network connection timed out" message. The little chevron (?) in the upper left side, that lets us "Choose which speakers to use", becomes orange rather than blue, and when I click on that, the Airport Express listing now has an exclamation mark inside a warning sign.
    On an iPhone 4, with iOS6: basically the same as with the iOS7 devices. It seems to "think" it's playing through the Aiport Express, and then after about 30 seconds just reverts to the iPhone speaker and stops playing, with no error message.
    Note that through all this the Airport Express has its green light and seems to think it's working fine, with an "Excellent" connection, according to the Airport Utility.
    I've tried turning basically everything off and on; everything is as up to date as I can make it, except that iPhone 4; I've forgotten and added networks; I've reset network settings; I've added and taken away a password from the Airport Express Airplay speakers (because, hey, why not). I'm not sure what else there even is to do: maybe tomorrow I'll head in to an apple store and see if I can use the AirPlay from my iPhone to play on one of their Airport Expresses? If they even have any set up?
    Outside chance of the cause - could my wifi network somehow be confused because it's dealing with both iOS6 and iOS7? Does that make any sense at all? (Not that my wife is going to be the least bit eager to upgrade to iOS7 after hearing me swear profusely over the past couple of days!)

  • Hi-i just installed "lion" and have"ilife09"would like to upgrade to ilife 11 is there a "package that has g/band, iPhoto

    hi-i just installed "lion" and have"ilife09"would like to upgrade to ilife 11 is there a "package that has g/band, iPhoto & i movie-all in one as a complete upgrade(and is it cheaper in a "package")  or do i have to install each one three separately?

    Aarrggghhhh, you in Australia, gotcha!
    Merchandise prices are in U$D on all links I posted.
    Amazon does shipping globally - see more here for AU shipping rates (in U$D)
    http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-11/dp/B003XKRZES/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&q id=1311468383&sr=8-1
    You can sign up for an account with them, being the largest online retailer in the world, they take all major credit cards and/or PayPal account as well.
    If I were you, Id do some research on Australian online stores for iLife package before going with Amazon, maybe you could find it cheaper there. But given the bad shape the US Dollar has been in, you might also get a better deal with Amazon, because U$D is so dirt cheap these days!
    I got my iLife 11 on Amazon. I buy Apple hardware on Apple's refurbished store, parts on OWC, and software on Amazon
