My homepage keeps changing without my permission, it changes often which worries me.

Every now and then my homepage changes to first something along the lines that Safe Search is on.. and now it changed to seek.mk, this worries me as I do not feel I have any viruses. I'm asking why it does that and if I should be worried.

I followed all prompts and they found nothing to suggest bearshare is on my computer.
But it is still automatically changing to become my homepage.

  • My Apple ID password keeps changing without my permission?

    I keep getting an email to tell me that my Apple ID has been successfully changed - but without my permission?
    I've had to change it 4 times and no doubt it seems to keep on happening?
    What's going on ?
    Any ideas
    Thanks

    Update:
    I've done a little research, fromsouth, which I guess is always best as you quite rightly said.
    Although it sounded like you were leading me clearly onto the path of enlightenment by saying "only I know the answers to those questions" it made me smile, since they were technical questions which I had no answer to at that time.
    I'm glad, albeit a nuisance jimmy that someone has the same problem.
    If apple can't help then that's not very promising is it?
    My only conclusion to solve this problem is to use 2 step verification which means somebody, if indeed it's of a hacking nature, would need to have access to the device where you'd receive a 4 number pin to make any changes to your Apple ID.
    I'm far from technical but I'm hoping this will work? If that doesn't then I guess I'll go to an apple store and camp out until I understand what's what.
    Thanks

  • Log in pic changed without my permission

    I went to log into my MacBook Pro and noticed on start up that my log in pic has changed into an eagle head.. Have not changed it and this pic is not stored on my laptop! How can his happen? Is it possible that someone has hacked into it? I am on a secured wifi connection . Haven't changed pics or on contact book. Can someone gain access through your ip address on your emails?
    Bit worried to log on incase my legal files are/will be accessed

    If they made a plan change and set it to today. then you would only see the prorated data (i.e. only having 8Gb). What day does your billing cycle end?
    I am not sure why they would change your plan without telling you? Even after you said no??

  • Can my contract be changed without my permission?

    I let my property out to a tenant about 5 months ago, at the time I contacted BT to cancel my contract. Because I had recently renewed it, they suggested it would make more sense to let the contract run and just to adjust my tenants rent to include to phone charges. This is what we did, so the contract is still in my name, and direct debit comes out of my bank account, so I am responsible for all bills. I got an email the other day thanking me for ordering BT Vision! I contacted my tenant, who said BT had called offering a better package, she told them that she didn't have a account number or any account details, as it wasn't in her name. They asked, if they got my permission, would she be interested in a new package, including BT Vision. She said yes, as long as I agreed, but no permission was sought and the deal seems to have been done and the contract changed. Is this legal? Can I cancel? I would be happy to pay any cancellation charges for my original landline/broadband contract and let her take over and arrange a new contract that suits her needs. Please advise.

    If you get the run around with the call centre you could try the MODS on here http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951
    But I'd give the call centre a chance to do something 1st. If you do decide to try the mods, allow 72hrs for a response.

  • Log HR infotype changes without a Mod like Change Documents

    We need some help with a requirement. We need to monitor HR infotype changes. We would like to be able to trigger a event like a change pointer and IDOC. However, we are trying to stay away from mods to our system. We are needed fields from 0000,0001,0003,0006,0105. Most of the fields do not have Change Documents set and would required us to create a mod to flag the data elements. We also tried to trigger and monitor these changes in ZXPADU02 until we realized that once we get to 0003,0006,0105 in zxpadu02 we don't know what the person is inserting in that specific infotype, because the exit function module does not bring in information on changes to those infotypes. We would really like to be able to trigger off of a event without creating a mod. We would like to not have to run a program to read the logging files because we like the responsiveness and real time actions of triggering and not running a periodic program. We are trying to push these changes out of SAP.
    Thanks

    Have a look at HRMD_A05 this idoc type can transport the infotypes you mentioned and of course you can activate change pointers for that in bd50 (message type hrmd_a)

  • I think my iPhone has been accessed without my permission. How do I know for sure.?

    I have been having issues in my laptops for weeks. They are blatantly being accessed remotely and now it seems like they've  gotten into my phone. Just because my wireless network is changing without my permission and my data logs show that programs and apps are being accessed when I haven't accessed them. Does iPhone run through apps daily even if they're not installed?  Also . I saw video.toolbox which I understand(correct me if I'm wrong) is used on jailbroken phones. I don't have anything incriminating to hide on my phone or otherwise. But the invasion of privacy is sickening. Also. What about my passwords and financial info???  Please help me block this user and keep my info safe. Unless of course I'm being paranoid because of my laptop.

    You are being paranoid because of your laptop.

  • Email will send a mass email without my permission

    So I have my email account set up through the 'mail' application. I use AOL not sure if that is relevant, but this is the second time I have noticed this happening. It was sent to 12 random people, only 3 of which I have in my address book, 3 others were professors and the rest were sent to people who I have previously sent or received emails from. There was no subject to either email and the only thing the message contained was this: http://www. stock-hifi.com/qLdyWVDE7L.html. I do not remember what the subject was to the first email.
    I would suggest NOT going to the site because it says something like "Visiting this site may harm your computer" and "Suspected Malware Site". I'm scanning my mac now for any potential problems. I was just wondering what is happening and how can I stop it?

  • Changed name on account, services were changed without permission for more $$

    Hi, I'm trying to resolve a situation that has me baffled. I recently moved and had to sign up for new FiOS service at my new apartment last week (I had FiOS at my old apartment, but couldn't just transfer my services because Verizon didn't offer those plans anymore, so I signed up for a new triple play bundle for the new apartment). Everything was installed and I was up and running on Thursday. Good stuff. Fast forward to today, when I realized that the last name on my account needed to be changed, so I called this morning to change the last name. I then get an email from Verizon saying that my new plan would be $10 extra a month, and that I would now be looking at a $250 bill come August (versus the original $172 I was quoted for August) because I changed my last name. Huh? It turns out the representative I talked to this morning changed my internet from 50/50 to 75/75 without my permission for an extra $10 a month. I later discovered that when you change your name on your Verizon account, Verizon considers this to be an act of signing up for a new plan, which the representative never disclosed to me during our conversation. Had I known this, I would never agreed to change the name and just left it as it was. But now it's too late, and I've been signed up for a more expensive monthly plan that I didn't agree to. What's worse, no one can explain to me why I'm looking at a $250 bill for August. If the bump up to 75/75 internet (which I didn't authorize in the first place, but okay fine, let's say I accept the unauthorized change) was an extra $10 a month, the prorated amount should not have changed the expected bill in August from $172 to $250. Something is very wrong here and things do not add up. I have called back twice now and gotten nowhere with the people I spoke with. Is there any other avenue I can take to get answers to what is wrong here?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi stormgrl,
    Your issue has been escalated to a Verizon agent. Before the agent can begin assisting you, they will need to collect further information from you. Please go to your profile page for the forum and look at the top of the middle column where you will find an area titled "My Support Cases". You can reach your profile page by clicking on your name beside your post, or at the top left of this page underneath the title of the board.
    Under "My Support Cases" you will find a link to the private board where you and the agent may exchange information. The title of your post is the link. This should be checked on a frequent basis, as the agent may be waiting for information from you before they can proceed with any actions. To ensure you know when they have responded to you, at the top of your support case there is a drop down menu for support case options. Open that and choose "subscribe". Please keep all correspondence regarding your issue in the private support portal.

  • My macbook air keeps opening ad websites without my permission. I've removed all website data various times which hasn't worked. this is making it very difficult for me to browse. please help?

    I'm scared i have a virus. safari keeps opening windows/tabs without my permission. these are normally ads. i have removed website data various times which hasn't worked.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

    i want to change my password but the system is not sending me message to reset my password. pls help someone is using my password without my permission and i want to change my password.

    If you are talking about your Apple ID password, make sure it IS your apple ID.
    In the past 24 hours, I have received two emails "How to reset your Apple ID password". I  had not requested any change and I finally realized someone else is trying to reset the password. I have had this Apple ID since 2009 so I am not using someone else's ID.
    Again, if you are not receiving the email to reset make sure you have the right ID - it might be going to the email linked to the account, and it might not be yours.
