USED 1GIG IN 37 MINUTES WITHOUT DOWNLOADING ANYTHING???

I have the lg usb 4g modem and a 5gig data plan.  I usually use it on a computer with Windows xp, and all works well.  Last night I used it on a different computer with windows 7.  After being on for about 40 minutes, checking e-mails, looking at MSN.com (no videos, just reading the articles), and looking at two very small pdf documents on a federal website, I got a message that I had used 90% of my plan;  when I looked at the bottom left panel of access manager where it shows how much you are using, it was showing that I was using one mb every two or three seconds. I used more than one gig in less than 40 minutes without downloading anything or doing anything else that would use a lot of data.  I shut everything down, rebooted, turned on the device again, and went to acess manager.  With just the device on, it was still using one mb every two or three seconds.  Just to have the device manager on for two or three minutes was eating up 70+ mb.
I call tech support; they said they would get back to me, but haven't so far.    

Windows 7 computer probably has a virus or twenty. Unfortunately for you, but fortunately for the rest of us, Verizon is a neutral internet service provider, and does not distinguish between different types of traffic, so the amount you used while connected, you will be liable for. In the future, I suggest not using your mobile broadband device on a computer you don't control, and keep your computers secure with regular virus scans/malware scans/etc.

  • Why does my memory kep being used up when I am not downloading anything

    my memory keeps being used up when I haven't downloaded anything to my iPad had 9gb free last night I now have 4 ?

    It is occupied by "Other"
    1. Cache for apps, browser, mail, messages, reading list
    2. Saved games
    3. Documents and data
    4. Notes
    5. Voice Memos
    You can backup and restore to reduce "other" but they will start building up over time.

  • My 4s crashed and Apple replaced it while I was out of town. I used it for a week without downloading my old information. When I backed up my old information it erased all my new information from a weeks work. Is there a way to recover that information?

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

  • Using the BDN document directly without downloading it to the local system

    Hi,
    my requirement is to use an excel template placed in the BDN(t code- oaor) for data upload directly from the BDN itself without downloading the excel to the local system.
    Is it possible?

    Hi,
    Use open dataset to read file from application server.
    try like this sample code:
    data : p_file like ibipparms-path.
    data : rec(350) type c.
    data:  g_delimiter(1) type c value ','.
    maintain the file path in p_file. then
    open dataset p_file for input in text mode encoding default.
       IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    do n times.
    READ dataset p_file into rec.
    split rec at g_delimiter into your internal table fields like it-id it-name it-age.
    append it.
    clear it.
    enddo.
    close dataset p_file.
    Now you have the data in internal table it.

  • How do I fix error 1015 without downloading anything?

    Been trying for ages and can't find a solution! :@

    If your iPhone isn't jailbroken, it could have a hardware problem.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1015
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.  Very rarely this error is caused by a hardware issue and requires service.

  • Firefox update download for my Mac in zip code 96822 just runs and runs without downloading anything. Has been happening for the past month. ???

    Over the past month, when Firefox indicates it has an update for me, and to download it, all I get is "connecting" and nothing happens. We live in 96822. This is for a Mac.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • How do i get just the contacts and photos from my back up without downloading anything else?

    please help me.
    im trying to just get CONTACTS and PHOTOS only back from my backup on itunes but it wont give me the option to do so.
    how do i just get contacts and photos?

    You don't.
    It is all or nothing.
    You should be syncing contact with your computer regularly, so they should be in whatever program you have chosen to sync.
    You should be importing all pics regularly, so they should be on your computer as well.

  • How can I use flashplayer that is already installed on my PC without downloading more?

    I already have Adobe flashplayer 12 installed on my Windows7 computer, however I can't get it into my Firefox add-ins. How do I use what I already have, without downloading more stuff?

    Note that both IE (ActiveX) and Google Chrome (Pepper) come with their own versions of Flash that are developed by Adobe in cooperation with the developers of those browsers to get the best performance.
    Firefox uses a different (NPAPI) Flash plugin than IE (ActiveX), so make sure to install the Flash Player plugin for Firefox.<br />
    Your above posted list of installed plugins doesn't show the Flash plugin for Firefox.
    You can get the latest version of Flash Player here:

  • HT4009 I let a child use my iPod and she purchased a lot of doeses for idoser and I did not have the money on my card. Now I can't download anything at all without using a new credit card or paying for it. How do I cancel it

    I let a child use my iPod and she purchased a lot of doeses for idoser and I did not have the money on my card. Now I can't download anything at all without using a new credit card or paying for it. How do I cancel it

    First, to prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your iPod. You may also want to turn off the ability to install apps, to prevent purchases in case the child gets hold of your iTunes Store account information, and set the password to be required immediately. For more information, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
    As to a refund, that's not automatic since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    They're usually pretty lenient in the case of inadvertent purchases by children. No guarantees, though, just as if your child was in a store and ate a bunch of food (in other words, something that can't just be returned).
    Good luck.

  • I have read the various threads regarding slow boot up times, on my 2009 MBP it takes 1 minute to get a usable interface but without doing anything else the HD is active for a further minute, is this reasonable ?

    My MBP after the Lion upgrade takes 1 minute to put something usable on screen and without doing anything else the HD is active for another minute.
    I have visited the Genius bar where they went through some maintenance routines and permissions repaired etc but the boot up time remains the same.
    I have cleared the cache as suggested in other threads but is this the best I can expect as with SL the computer booted up in about 30 seconds ?
    I recall reading there may be unwanted  programs loading at boot up time but I do not know where to look in the system to check.

    Thanks for the reply, I have followed your suggestion but unfortunately it has not improved the boot time, do you have any further advice you could offer me ?
    I use my MBP for working on and storing my photographic images following my Photoshop adjustments, these individual image files are between 50 to 60Mb, I was reading about OSX self defragmenting files below 20Mb, these files are not intended as start up items but do you think storing approx 200Gb of these files could be having so effect ? I am a fromt end user so my limited knowledge is restricted to repairing permissions etc. I am probably clutching at straws but it be better to store these images on an external HD in addition to my backups on other HD's.
    Thanks.

  • HT5312 So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

    So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

    If you mean that you aren't getting the reset link, then from the page that you posted from :
    Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so. 
    You can contact iTunes Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use
