Mcafee site advisor add on caused problems with my yahoo mail..ahd to disable,but need the mcafee for security..what to do?

all of a sudden i had problems with my yahoo mail..messages and such would not load..tried everything..clearing cache,restart comp etc...nothing..then someone suggested i disable add ons..could only think of McAfee site adviser as the culprit..as soon as i changed that add on to "ask to activate" it seemed to get rid of the problem and i was able to see my messages..but i want the site adviser so how do i fix this problem??

I haven't heard about this conflict before. If your McAfee software is as up-to-date as possible, you might check their forums to see whether it is a known issue.
Meanwhile, since you mentioned Yahoo! mail... As you know, Yahoo has made lots of changes in its mail, including changing servers. While old bookmarks and home page addresses should be redirected to the correct server, this is not happening consistently.
To make sure you are using the latest server for your account, try accessing your mail through one of these pages:
* Yahoo home page: https://www.yahoo.com/
* My Yahoo page: https://my.yahoo.com/
* General mail redirect: https://mail.yahoo.com/

  • McAfee Site Advisor add on causes Firefox to operate slowly, wht can be done?

    Running Win 8.1 on a new Dell.
    McAfee Site advisor is enabled and causes Firefox to run slowly and in fits and starts.
    When I disable Mcafee site advisor Firefox runs fine.

    Hi Richard,
    Unfortunately, extensions such as Site Advisor are known to slow-down Firefox. Often, poor memory utilization is the cause; this can lead to slow start-up, crashing, and general slowness loading webpages.
    In my opinion, Site Advisor is completely unnecessary, as Firefox includes built-in phishing and malware protection already (see [[How does built-in Phishing and Malware Protection work?]])
    In addition, some search engines such as duckduckgo.com have an option to enable Web of Trust (mywot.com) ratings alongside search results without the need for additional add-ons. In your case, I think this would be the best option for you.

    Hi - it depends on how old your iPhone is. Is it fairly new or if its less than 28 days old you can bring it back to the store if bought through one of the common networks. I had an earpiece problem when I bought mine after just 10 days or so, I couldn't hear anyone through the earpiece and exchanged in store for Free.

    I have problem with my iphone as it is disable and need to get all my data as the phone needs at least 40 years to enable accessing it

    If you have never connected the phone to iTunes and backed it up or used iCloud to backup your data, it is lost at this point.
    The only way to get back into the phone is to restore it.

  • Problem with my Yahoo mail

    Hello, I have recently both linksys wireless router model number WRT54GC. Ever since I have put it I am having problems with my yahoo mail. I can enter the inbox, read the text of the message but I can not reply, forward, compose or download the attachment. When I take out the router everything works. Can anyone please help me, since there must be something wrong with the settings of the router... Thank you in advance!

    Try to login from some other browser like firefox or opera. Try from some other computer. On router you can try settings MTU to 1350, and under security tab, try disabling block anonymous internet requests.

  • AOL causing problems with Airport and Mail

    It's another reason to get rid of AOL, but my wife is still hooked... when her AOL is running on the iMac G5 connected to the DSL modem, other computers can't access the Internet over the Airport from this G5 (and for some reason, Mac Mail won't send e-mail). When AOL isn't running, the Airport and Mail problems are gone. (It took a while to figure out this was the problem!)
    Does this problem have its root in the arcane world of sockets and ports? Or is there some AOL preference I can change to make it play nice with others?

    I think it is simply how AOL works. If you log into AOL it only wants that one connection working.
    The only router I know of that works with AOL is the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS). I suggest that you get an AEBS and use that to share the connection instead of your iMac G5.

  • I have problem with my Yahoo mail, e-mail take a long time to open (it first opens as a bank page). The provider think is something to do with the browser

    Since a couple of weeks my btyahoo email is behaving strangely. It take a while to load when I enter, and if I click on an e-mail it opens a blank, contentless page. After a while I am eventualluy able to see the content, but it is annoying. BT (the provider) had remote access to check the problem and thinks it is something to do with the browser. They suggested I disinstall and install again. Can you advice? Will I lose all my bookmarks if I do so (I have quite a few...)

    * The first time you start up any application after turning on your computer is called a cold start, which is why Firefox takes a while to load right away. (I've noticed that future versions of Firefox start up faster on a cold start then Firefox 5.0.1.) Also, a lower amount of RAM could be slowing its start-up down since Firefox is kind of memory hungry.
    * As for the second part of your question, press ctrl,Alt, and the delete keys on your keyboard. The Windows Task Manager should start. Go to the processes tab and look for 'firefox.exe'. Right click on the firefox.exe and click 'End Process'. Hit Yes and wait for a minute.
    * Then opening Firefox again.
    Hopefully this helped somewhat!

  • Problems with Timer, counts 60000 as one minute but need it to be 60

    Hello All.
    I have an application that i have working although i need to change it slightly, the way that it uses a number to be exact,
    It includes a countdown HSlider and timer, and is used as an interview kinda thing.  so the user only gets a small period of pre determined time to make their answer.  It all works fine but i need to change one part of it.
    At the moment the timer works if i feed in the number 60000 as the maximum value,  this equals one minute, but i need to be able to enter 60 instead of 60000.  I need to use seconds rather than miliseconds.
    Here is my code.
                protected function addtoArray():void {   
                    if(userArray.getItemAt(0).q1 != '') questionArray.addItem({question:userArray.getItemAt(0).q1, time:'60000', tt:'2'});
                    if(userArray.getItemAt(0).q2 != '') questionArray.addItem({question:userArray.getItemAt(0).q2, time:'60000', tt:'3'});
                    if(userArray.getItemAt(0).q3 != '') questionArray.addItem({question:userArray.getItemAt(0).q3, time:'30000', tt:'4'});
                    if(userArray.getItemAt(0).q4 != '') questionArray.addItem({question:userArray.getItemAt(0).q4, time:'60000', tt:'2'});
                private function init():void {
                    t = new Timer(1000);
                    t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, updateTimer);
                    startInterview();
                private function updateTimer(evt:TimerEvent):void {
                    var d:Date = new Date(getTimer() - baseTimer);
                    counter.text = "Time Remaining - " + dateFormatter.format(d);
                    timerCount = getTimer() -baseTimer;
                    TimerSlider.value = timerCount;
                    if (skip == true)
                        stopTimer();
                        startInterview();
                        skip = false;
                    else if (timerCount >= totaltime)
                        stopTimer();
                        startInterview();
                private function startInterview():void {
                    if(i==0)
                        questionArray.addItem({question:"End"});
                    timeLabel.text = questionArray.getItemAt(i).time;
                    totaltime = parseInt(timeLabel.text);
                    QuestionText.text = questionArray.getItemAt(i).question;
                    ThinkTime = questionArray.getItemAt(i).tt;
                    if (QuestionText.text=="End")
                        QuestionText.text = "Thanks, thats the end";
                    else
                        createComplete();
                        var QcountVar:int = questionArray.length -1;
                        var Qpos:int = i+1;
                        hp.status ="Question: " + Qpos.toString() + " / " + QcountVar.toString();
                        i = i + 1;
    The init function is called by a button click
    If anyone could help me change it so it runs in seconds rather than miliseconds that would be great !
    Thanks in advance

    Multiply the number you type in by 1,000

  • New iphone on O2 I had the phone unlocked, the phone then developed a problem with connecting to wifi. it was sent back under the warranty for a replacement phone. will the new phone be sent back back on O2 or unlocked as I sent it ?

    Don't want to have to pay again to have it unlocked.

    Then your iPhone was not unlocked legitemately  ,it was hacked to unlock it
    You may not get a replacement ,hacking voids the warranty and you can have NO support or help from Apple or on this forum 3
    If you do get a replacement it will certainly be locked to O2 as the iPhone status on Apple Activation servers is locked

  • I am running Firefox 5, McAfee Site advisor is blocked. I contacted McAfee and they said it won't work with Firefox 5 and that I should use an ealier version of FF or use IE. Is there a patch coming to allow Site Advisor to work on FF 5?

    As above McAfee apparently feels the fault is with FF. I will admit that under the latest 3 version it worked fine. I skipped version 4 because of some things a read about it. I did go with FF5.

    The McAfee Site Advisor add-on is blocklisted by Mozilla due to that Site Advisor extension being the #2 cause of crashing the Firefox 5.0 betas. McAfee was notified of the problem long before that extension was added to the blocklist. Now it is up to them to fix it. <br /> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/ <br />
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660111
    I have read that McAfee is working on a re-written version that is projected to be available in the 3rd week of July.
    Quite honestly, with McAfee taking the position that this problem is with Firefox or is Mozilla's fault, when that add-on has a long history of being [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions PROBLEMATIC], I have lost the little respect I had for McAfee being a respectable, ethical company. ''Of course, my level of respect for McAfee was low to begin with due to problems I had with their software 10 years ago causing me to re-format my PC bi-weekly immediately after their security scans on a Win98 PC, and haven't used their stuff since once I discovered their software was causing my problem with lost video card drivers repeatedly.''

  • The McAfee site advisor used to work brfore but no longer does with the new version of Firefox. How do I revert to the olderversion or get the McAfee site advisor to work?

    The McAfee site advisor used to work before with earlier versions of Firefox but now no longer does since upgrading to the latest version. It still works with Explorer so it a Firefox version compatibility issue with McAfee. The PC runs on Microsoft Vista.

    I am sure that it is only their toolbar that is incompatible. To verify that and ask if they currently support Firefox 5 with their add-ons, go to the following address and post your question(s). Changing their toolbars to be compatible with any browser is their responsibility.
    *http://service.mcafee.com/TechSupportHome.aspx?lc=1033&sg=TS
    Other than the toolbar, the rest of your security application should be working as expected, but you can also ask that question at the above link. Firefox has built-in malware/phishing protection, if that is what is provided by their toolbar, another question that you can ask at the above link.

    Hi there
    Sorry for hijacking your thread as put by Dahveed. However I have resolved my issue so I thought I'll share it with the rest of you.
    I checked for the error 3194 in youtube and I found some good videos that tell you how to resolve the problem. The issue I was facing was the actually (I know because I have resolved it now) the communication between my computer and apple server which can be fixed as following (if you are using windows):
    There is file in following directory:
    C:\Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
    The file normally has no extension and it is in file format. You need to open it and make sure that every line that has apple server id starts with "#". In my case one of the line started directly with the ip address and then gs.apple.com.
    Perform your restore/update after that and hopefully it should be resolved (mine did).
    Cheers

    Compatible issues firefox v37.0.2 with att yahoo mail
    Hello: this is my first post,hope I am doing it properly.
    I am using W7pro OS and ATT DSL 3.0Mbps dl
    I noticed this week that I was unable to save attachments from my ATT Yahoo mail I could view them but no choice as to ware to save them--only choice (save to my comp.)But no ware to be found.
    I reinstalled v 36.0.4-preventing auto upgrade-But still had same problem.
    At this point contacted ATT support supervisor-we spent about 4hr working on problem--He was using your v 31.5.0--and had no problem accessing and saving attachments using remolt access on my comp.
    We also found using my comp.FF v 36.0.4 & v 37.0.2 browser,that we could without any problems access an save attachments--AOL mail-- & mail2web.--& IE--Even when forwarding inaccessible mail to above sites.
    He informed me that (ATT mail Yahoo)only uses resources to make them compatible with--Google IE & Chrome &Apple? (basically he was saying,that they would NOT commit resources to FF--any version)BUT he was not allowed to commit.
    PS: The last time I know it worked ok was 3-18-15 I have 3 comp.2 wxp pro 1 w7 pro the same problem on all 3--so feel confident not OS related-but compatible problems with FF & yahoo mail.
    The ATT support supervisor-was unable to determined the date they may have made changes on their site.without extensive research-which we decided wasn't worth the effort as they wouldn't look in to it.
    I hope someone or FF will be able find a workaround-as I do not want to use the browsers they suggest. I LOVE FF.
    Thank You Gary

    I have no idea what you are asking me to do ??--can you explain at a dummy
    level--I wont be offended.
