Stop FF calls out to IP address 72.21.91.19 every 15 minutes

Why does FF call out to the IP address 72.21.91.19?
I found that the IP is part of Edgecast and seemed to be possibly related to FF live bookmarks and/or the latest headline live book mark.
But FF is still trying to go to that IP even after the live bookmark was removed. It tries to do this every 15 minutes and sometimes more often.
Currently I am blocking that IP with my firewall. This seems to be a privacy & security problem. But I have not found a way to completely block live bookmarks. This ONLY happens if FF is open and happens regardless of what site the browser is or has been visiting.
This is an older system and FF ver 3.6.28 ( it's a good old stable W2k OS system). FF is using NoScript, Ghostery, & ADP. The system passes all virus checks, including Malware Bytes and Super AntiSpyware.
tia for help with this

cor-el,
Good suggestions. I will work on them probably tomorrow and report back.
FredMcD,
Yes the timing of this repeating itself does make it look suspicious, doesn't it? So this evening I followed your suggestion and completely closed the firewall for a while with FF running. Then checked the FW logs to see what showed up. Then reset the FW to its normal operation and watched its logs some more.
'''1) '''With the FW (OutPost FW) closed, the FF outgoing calls to the IP 72.21.91.19 completely stopped. No call out attempts from FF occurred.
'''2) '''No other items tried to get out than what would be expected. Except for SVCHOST.exe & System which did try to do 4 types of UDP connections.
'''a) '''2/23/2014 11:57:43 PM '''SYSTEM''' OUT UDP 192.168.1.255 138 Block All Activity 0 0
'''b) '''2/23/2014 11:47:16 PM '''SYSTEM''' IN UDP 192.168.1.11 138 Block All Activity 0 229
'''c) '''2/23/2014 11:45:27 PM '''SVCHOST.EXE''' OUT UDP 192.168.1.1 53 Block All Activity 0 0
'''d) '''2/23/2014 11:33:42 PM '''SYSTEM''' IN UDP 192.168.1.11 137 Block All Activity 0 234
'''3) '''The other programs that were running with LAN or net expected connections were email (Eudora 5 instances), Wall Watcher. They were blocked as expected.
'''4) '''During the time the FW was closed, I periodically left the macine alone at times and then did various things like typing text files & saving them, checking different directories, reading and paging thru already open site pages with FF, opening & closing Word Docs. NO FF call outs were attempted. And no call outs except those listed above System & SVCHOST were attempted /blocked.
'''5) '''But when I opened the FW to allow internet connections, in less than a minute, the FF call out to 72.21.91.19 started up again.
Btw the FW log sequence below shows the FW log details for these questionable FF call outs. The sequence of the 4 steps happens at the same recorded time. IE they happen one after the other quickly. And the sequence is commensurate with the way I understand Eset Nod32 Anti-Virus handle the firefox browser by inserting itself between the browser & the internet.
From the FW logs
'''A) '''2/23/2014 9:45:25 PM '''SVCHOST.EXE''' IN UDP 192.168.1.1 53 Generic Host Process DNS UDP connection 0 147
'''B) '''2/23/2014 9:45:25 PM '''FIREFOX.EXE''' OUT TCP localhost 30606 Allow local TCP activity 0 0
'''C) '''2/23/2014 9:45:25 PM '''EKRN.EXE''' IN TCP localhost 4735 Eset NOD32 Service connection 0 0
'''D) '''2/23/2014 9:45:25 PM '''EKRN.EXE''' OUT TCP 72.21.91.19 80 Blocked by IP Blocklist 0 0
Now to add to the discovery, I just added the IP address to the block list for one of my W2k machines. AND on that machine also FF tries to call to that IP address immediately on start up. So this happens with 2 installations of this FF version.
Thanks for this help.

I am trying to create an executable vi that will call out another vi and show its front panel in the executable. When I try this I recieve this error message "top level vi (my main vi) was stopped at unknown on the block diagram of (my sub vi)

Well the most common way is to enclude the vi's in the build spec either directly in the dependancies that the App builder automatically generates OR by declaring them in the build spec as "additional enclusions" (like you must do for dynamic vi calls in your app.
I have heard rummors about My.app Stuff.vi in a nugget Intaris posted- and I've wanted to dig deaper into Intaris' claims- but have not tried it myself.

How to return out of a subVI into a calling VI and not stop the calling function

I am writing a program that consists of a calling VI and a sub VI. I want the calling function to be running continuously and be able to trigger the sub VI (via voice activation). I want the sub VI to time out automatically after 10 seconds and return to the calling (master) VI, which will continue running until the sub VI is called again.
I found a way to time out the sub VI using the "stop" command, but this quits the calling VI too, which cannot happen. I know there is no "return" or "soft stop" in LabVIEW, but does anyone know a way to do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am a student working on a project involving voice activation. the overall idea is to have a person say a command (like go or something) that then gives them a 10 second window to say other commands and have them recognized by the program. The idea is to eliminate false positives by nesissitating a calling command that is not spoken very often, and then having 10 seconds to activate what we are trying to vocally control. I hope that helps clarify the intent of the program.
I was using a flat structure just because I sucessfully got the sub VI to time out using a flat structure with a boolean false on one side with a wait of 10 seconds, then a boolean true on the other that triggered a stop. this successfully ran the sub VI for 10 seconds and then stopped it; however, it also stopped the calling VI which is my problem. right now, I have a while loop in the calling VI that contains an elapsed time timer and the sub VI and it works (kind of). it sucessfullly calls the sub VI, but not for any given amount of time. it changes each time it runs; sometimes it stays running for 10 seconds before returning to the calling VI, sometimes it just flashes, and sometimes it just doesn't return. I am also experimenting with mathscript code.
My partners and I are all new to labVIEW, so if something seems less than optimal, it is because of our inexperience.
Thanks again for your help.

Facetime suddenly stopped "connecting" calls

I have a Mac Mini (desktop) and have been successfully using FaceTime without any problems since I purchased it. Recently, and suddenly, it is not connecting calls. It happens when I try to call out, and it happens when someone tries to call me. (having said that, I only use it with 3 or 4 people). The call will ring, but once the other party attempts to connect, the call is dropped/disconnected. It is happening every time. I've run my software updates and the other parties have run their software updates. And unless I"m looking in the wrong places, I cannot seem to find this problem in the apple technical support topics or troubleshooting discussions. Any suggestions?

Apple has released a document which is reported to address the recent FaceTime issue.

Auto dialer not calling out

Hi
I have a water alarm that I can connect to my BT phone line. It will call the programmed numbers if there is a water leak.
However, I can't get it to call out using my BT phone line.
I have taken the devie round to a friend's house and tried it on their phone line - it works perfectly.
I live in a flat (as does the friend I tested it with). I have also tried it in another flat in the block who has a BT line and it also didn't work using theirs.
I have broadband from PlusNet.
I can make and receive calls perfectly using my phone - it is just the auto dialer that doesn't work.
Can anyone help? Could there be a problem with my line that is stopping the auto dialer from working. Maybe it dials the numbers too quickly for my line - although it does work at my friend's place.
Many thanks
rigby44

The dialler must be set to use tone dialling and not loop disconnect.
Loop disconnect will quite often fail if the circuit has broadband on it, as the broadband filters distort the DC pulses.
Loop disconnect will not be supported on the future 21CN phone network, and manufacturers have been told to phase it out.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Why has facetime stopped recording calls unless I close it down and restart it?

Facetime has stopped recording calls unless I close it down and restart. Any solutions?

Try the standard fixes to rule out a hardware problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

"phone in use" when calling out

Macbook Pro late 2013 and Yosemite. I notice when I am docked with my 27" Apple Display (2014), undock so I can take my laptop and reconnect my display later that I can not receive a call. The iPhone and iPad ring. When I call out I get a message that the phone is in use. My work around has been to restart the Macbook Pro when I reconnect the display. My thought was maybe it had something to do with the IP addresses of both the wired and wireless LAN creating havoc. Has anyone else experienced this?

Belynda227,
Let's get to the bottom of this! Could you please confirm the software version your phone is on http://vz.to/1tryr3F ? Also, have you checked to see if the option is still turned on? Settings>Accessibility>Talkback

Can't Text or Call Out on iPhone 4S

Beginning five days ago, I started having issues with being unable to send text or call out. I have checked that iMessage is on, I have reset the phone several times, reset the network settings, turned cellular service off and back on, airplane mode on and off, bluetooth is off, wifi is off and do not disturb is off. I have roughly three bars for service. The phone periodically snaps out of it and allows texts to come through, allowing me to text and make calls, and suddenly it will not allow again. Is this a SIM card issue? Software/Firmware issue? I currently updated to 6.1 (10B142), but this issue was taking place two days before that and upgrading didn't solve the issue. How do I fix this issue? Is it a problem with the iPhone or a problem that Verizon can fix? Help!!

Still same issues I have tried all of these tips and it seems like I am getting worst results now my phone doesn't ring nor register any calls at all. As well as ,my text messages are not going through. I only been a customer for not even two months it seems like I may have made a mistake switching. Also when I am lucky enough to be able to send a call through the receipent says my phone is breaking up and they cannot hear me. So what is the resolution now...

I'm really sorry to hear about the problems encountered with your phone, CantrellDigital! I'll do all I can to help you find a solution. My best suggestion for resolving your concerns would be to complete a 'Restore' of your device. This will return your phone to it's original factory setting and hopefully resolve the problem you described. Select the link to follow the instructions: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=47616 Please let me know of this resolves your concerns.

Engineer called out without reason

Hello. I recently reported a fault on Friday 18th July. I then called them up on Monday to close the fault. The call advisior was getting confused and thought I wanted to report a fault but got there in the end. (I dont think she even did anything. She was probably trying to get me off the line ASAP!)
The fault was fixed on Saturday. (The weather stopped being a pain)
So today, an engineer came around. I said the problem had been fixed and he went off. (felt sorry for him)
I never called out for an enginner to be deployed. Will I still be charged and can I close this fault so it prevents more people from turning up at my door? Apparently it was the 2nd visit but not that I no of. I was in this whole week!
I really dont want to be dealing with a £130 charge
"There may be a £129.99 charge if we send out an engineer"

I have had to close it a second time now. I hope this works.
My Phone fault is still showing and I can't close it. I really dont want to call up as they probably will send ANOTHER engineer out when I didnt ask.
The phone fault says nothing about an engineer. How can I get this fault cleared/closed?
Here is my phone fault

2 Skype #'s, 1 Account: Question About Calling Out

Hi folks - I am needing a 2nd Skype # for business in a 2nd area code. Same biz, just a different location. From my research it seems that having both #'s under 1 account could work. I don't really need to know which # was called. However... I do need to be able to choose which # to call out on. One area code for one region and the other # for the other location. I use Skype on my iPad and Android phone. Will I be able to choose which # to make a call from on both of these devices? Thanks much.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When two Skype Numbers are associated with the same account, it is possible to control which number will be used for outgoing Caller ID purposes
Toggling between these numbers is possible in your account settings, but it is not particularly convenient to do this on an ongoing basis, especially since the setting is not available in profile settings under Android
It is also possible set up Caller ID so that the number that corresponds to the country code of the number you are calling is displayed, but that won't work when the Skype Numbers are for different area codes in the same country
Another way to address this issue is to use 2 Skype accounts, and get a Skype Number for each Skype Name
It is possible to simultaneously run multiple instances of the Skype client under Windows and Linux (and I think OS X too), but, unfortunately, not on smartphones or tablets

Why can't I call out when I'm in Mongolia? I can receive calls and send and receive text messages.

I'm currently in Mongolia and can not call out from my iPhone 4S using a Mobicom SIM card. I can receive calls and send and receive texts. I use my regular SIM card from Canada and it works fine. It worked fine 6 months ago.

Having incorrect APN settings shouldn't be stopping text message from coming though. But to get the correct APN setting just delete any APN profiles on the device. And the EE ones should just get installed but you can just to make sure use the link that has posted.

with text messages not coming through I have to ask are you getting a signal ?

Stop FF calls out to IP address 72.21.91.19 every 15 minutes
