Some company might be posing as Mozilla and infecting computers with a virus.

I was trying to access an old website link I had for easter eggs on DVDs, and I got a message come up that said I had been chosen to do a 30 second survey on how I use Firefox. Additionally, the page played a .wav file that stated I would get a free gift if I completed this survey. After answering the four questions, the page offered multiple "free" items, including some random anti-wrinkle cream and a free Samsung phone. Not being a complete idiot, I immediately started a computer scan with Avast, and did not click on any of the "offers." I am now reporting it to Mozilla, and can supply the website address if needed.

Post the address, BUT use '''<DOT>''' and not '''.'''<BR><BR><BR>
You can sent a report to the '''FBI''' via their
'''''[http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3)]'''''
<BR><BR>You can also report such a site at;
'''''[http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/ Google Report Phishing Page]'''''
which is the same when done while on site by going to '''''Help > Report Web Forgery'''''<BR><BR><BR>

  • Mozilla and IE issues with Flash Player

    OK.  I have 2 machines.  1 would crash trying to play some videos on finance.yahoo.com in either the IE6 or latest Firefox with the latest version of Flash Player.
    Machine #2 was able to play these videos in IE8 and latest Firefox.  The one difference between the machines is that machine #2 has IE8.
    I updated machine #1 wih IE8 and now the IE8 AND the Firefox can now play the videos.  I can explain away IE6 vs. IE8 as websites are quickly shutting down support for the former, but I cannot explain why Firefox would only succeed if IE6 was replaced by IE8.
    I am hoping someone has an idea.
    In addition these are PC's in an enterprise so group Policy is in effect for both and both had the same patch level on XP.

    I tend to submit crash reports most of the times lately but yeah--
    Also, someting that really bugs me are these Actionscript errors because I can't upload a crash report for those--
    (they are more rare now but still happen occasionally)
    EDIT: Added photo of one of the Actionscript Errors when trying to play videos using the blip-player

  • I had some trouble downloading a particular web site and I fiddled with my browser settings, now it's worse! How can I restore the original settings?

  • How can I control my pc and other computers with my ipod touch 5 gen ?

    Hello
    I have recently bought an iPod 5th Generation and I'm very happy with it !! My question is.
    I have an old laptop iBook and it is connected to a hard disk where I stock my music.... So basically, this old computer is my jukebox. The only problem is that the screen on the iBook doesnt work very well (I must press really strong alongside the mousepad in order to see something). So I was wondering if I could control and see (select music and more), from my iPod touch ? Should I absolutely need to have an Apple TV ?
    Is there an APP so I could control my iBook from my Ipod ?
    I also have another laptop (PC) and I was wondering if I could control everything from my ipod touch ? It could be really fun.
    Many thanks, C.

    The is the Apple Remote app that will allow yo to plave your iTunes music via the iPod.
    There aree also apps that allow controllig the entire computer via the iPod. See:

  • Syncing both home and work computers with iPhone

    Is it possible to sync my home iCal with my iPhone and my work iCal with iPhone, so all events appear on my iPhone, but not have my work events merged to home and home events merged to my iCal at work? I want to keep the two desktop calendars separate, but have them combined on the iPhone. Is this possible? (I suspect not until the iPhone calendar has multiple calendars as iCal does) Thanks -- Rick

    Hey Rick,
    This is not possible, when you sync the iPhone to a computer for the first time iTunes will ask if you want to Merge, replace on computer, or replace on iPhone. You may want to Merge and choose the option to put events created on the iPhone on another calendar on iCal, that you will delete later.
    You can always backup iCal before you start, by going to File> Back up iCal.
    You can also leave feedback and request features added to the iPhone online here:

  • HT4191 Notes getting mixed up and or replaced with other users i-phone?

    For some reason whenever I sync my i-phone 4s and my wife syncs her i-phone 4 to itunes on our laptop which is a compaq(I don't know if that might be a problem) by the way, some of her notes always gets deleted and gets replaced with my notes, and she'll have just a couple of her notes but most of mine. It's been driving us crazy for months now cuz we can't figure it out! Do we need to sync our phones on different computers? Is there a setting that I'm missing? What are we doing wrong????

    Please let me know whether you experience the following issue, and submit feedback (or if you are an Apple Developer, a bug report). This issue is not related to synchronization.
    Title/Subject:
    Contacts 7.1 replaces one contact's Notes with another contact's Notes
    Summary:
    This issue's significance is severe because data is permanently lost: After searching for contacts and editing one of the contact's Notes, all found contacts' Notes are replaced with the changed contact's Notes.
    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Launch the Contacts 7.1 app in OSX 10.8.2.
    2. Search for a string that appears in several contacts' Notes field.
    3. Click on one of the contacts in the search results.
    4. Ensure that "Edit Card" mode is NOT enabled.
    5. Alter the found string in the contact's Notes field.
    6. Click on a different contact in the search results list.
    Expected Results:
    The change is saved and the changed contact disappears from the search results list.
    Actual Results:
    All found contacts disappear from the search results list, and all found contacts' Notes are replaced with the changed contact's Notes.
    Regression:
    This issue did not exist in OSX 10.7's Address Book app. I have not had the opportunity to test earlier releases of OSX 10.8's Contacts app.
    Notes:
    Example:
    Suppose a search for "P1" finds three contacts:
      Name: Alan  |  Note: Ask permission. P1
      Name: Betsy  |  Note: Backup files. P1
      Name: Charles  |  Note: Call. P1
    While "Edit Card" mode is NOT enabled, in Alan's note, change "P1" to "P2". Then click on Betsy in the search results list. Betsy and Charles' Notes are erroneously and permanently replaced with Alan's Note:
      Name: Alan  |  Note: Ask permission. P2
      Name: Betsy  |  Note: Ask permission. P2
      Name: Charles  |  Note: Ask permission. P2

  • HT5282 What security is best for my MacBookPro and iMac? I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files. Is this ok, the cost if around $40. I don't mind paying but I am a bit worried they might not be approved

    Hi,
    Am new at this. What security is best for my MacBookPro and iMac? I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files. Is this ok, the cost if around $40. I don't mind paying but I am a bit worried they might not be approved by Apple.

    I have had some company asking me to join them to 'clean' and get rid of some unused files.
    Does this company know you use Mac OS X? If so this is a worrysome trend.
    For a couple of years now there have been several scam artists that call you, claiming to be from 'tech support', or your ISP or even Microsoft, reporting that your machine has been idenfitied as being infected and that you need to give them access to your machine to 'clean it up'. In the process of this 'clean up' they thoroughly hose the system by trashing important files and then demand more money in 'recovery fees' to restore the system.
    I've laughed in their face whenever they've called me since they have no clue of how to compromise a Mac system, but if they've started to target Mac users then more vigilence is required.

    Just Google 'microsoft support scam' for more reports/variations.

    You may have zoomed web page(s) by accident.
    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
    *<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl/Command+0 (zero))
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
    If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.

    Hi All.
    Mountain Lion for some stupid reason keeps shutting down and rebooting on me. It is random and not associated with any particular task or program/software. I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion but the f'n thing still keeps doing it. I am trying to write a thesis and I have lost work because of this. If I can't get this sorted I am going to go back to using Lion.

  • How can I stop Mozilla and some extensions from opening new tabs every time I open firefox, even with no updates?

    I'm using Firefox 9.0.1 on a Windows 7 laptop. Since upgrading to 9.0 and then 9.0.1 Mozilla and Speed Dial open new tabs as if they've been updated, even though there has been no update. Colorful tabs 8.0 did it as well, but I disabled it.

    Do you have BitDefender (2010 e.g.) with its toolbar? If yes, remove it because the BD toolbar is known to be buggy and cause this issue (add-on compatibility check at each Firefox start).
    And report here the BD toolbar version you have.

    Still unable to download itunes to my pc. Tried with IE, Mozilla and Google Chrome. Keep getting an error message :"Windows cannot open itunes.exe the file is corrupt contact support."previous itunes files were wipped out by "disk cleaner." Any help??
    Please!
    Thanks!

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • Cannot open grooveshark due to a supposed problem loading flash. (I have the latest version of both (Mozilla and Flash)

    Everything with firefox works ok except Grooveshark. An error message appears saying: We had problems loading flash, you might have any blocker etc etc.
    I don´t have any blocker and as a matter of fact i have the latest versions for both mozilla and flash. Neither version of flash test nor reinstallation process nor checking add ons or firewall settings solved my problem.
    Thanks for the attention. Regards

    To double-check your Flash permissions for the site, you can click the globe or padlock icon to the left of the address, click More Information, then click the Permissions tab. The "Activate Plugins" section would be the one to check.
    I understand you have checked your add-ons, but in case there is an unexpected interaction, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode just to confirm that extensions are not the problem? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    ''Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run''
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some char might not be displayed

    Hi Folks,
                  Our requirement is to generate the customer account statement for a set of cusomters during a particular period.
                         we  use a script to generate the statement and convert it to pdf.This pdf is then stored in the application server and retrived using cg3y transaction.The transaction allows the statement to be generated for multiple customers and company code.
    the problem that we face is that the first customer account statement is generated properly the rest of the statements are not displayed properly.When we open the customer account statement we get the error 'Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some characters might not be displayed properly'.All the Headings that we of the font BOLD ARIAL were not displayed.
    This error does not occur for the first pdf file generated.(say we have 3 customers  for the 1st customer pdf is proper however for the next two error'.
                         When I checked the application server I found that the first file has font subtype as Type1 and then rest of the files have font subtype as Truetype.
    This is working fine.I downloaded the file to pc using cg3y.the pdf looks fine.

    Hi,
    this can be related to the compression of the PDF file.
    You can turn off the FlateDecode compression again via report RSTXPDF3 as described in Note #843480. It is a little confusing. The option 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' needs to be set to 'On' to turn off the FlateDecode compression.
    To set this please run as follows:
    se38 -> RSTXPDF3 -> enter 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' in the 'Name' field -> Select 'Change Settings' radio button
    You will get a pop-up 'Do not use flat compression'.
    Select the 'on' button.
    After this check if the PDF is created correctly.
    regards,
    Aidan

  • How do I transfer all of my songs from Iphone to itunes as lost everything, some songs are not bought from itunes and have been from borrowed CD's but I really want them in itunes library?

    Hello, Please help as I tunes havent got back to me yet!!
    A couple of months ago, I lost all of my music/itunes etc as my computer needed a complete restore. When it re-installed itunes there was no songs on it at all and would only let me transfer the purchases made on my iphone from itunes back onto my library. The problem I have is that I want to upgrade my phone to the iphone4 but dont want to lose all of the songs on my iphone, some are downloaded from the itunes, most are from CD's that I still own but there are some great songs that I have put on from borrowed CD's or another download company i.e. hmv music downloads and those are the songs it will not let me transfer into the library on my computer so when I get the new phone, I could just sync and they will all be there.
    Please help as I do not want to lose any of my songs
    Thank you

    for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
    connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.
