What is a web filter and why is it prevetning me from using firefox?

Firefox allows me to search on google but as soon as i click the next link/to go on the page i want is doesnt work. Instead it talks about a web filter saying that the page i tried to visit could not be checked by web filter. This also happens when i use internet explorer. How do i fix this?

A web filter can be a piece of software installed on your computer, or on a network you are connected to that checks the content of the sites you are trying to visit. Talk to the owner of the network you are trying use, or the owner of the computer.
It's also possible you have malware, try scanning for malware with the directions at [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]

Best Web Filter and Application control for K-12 School using Chromebooks

Sophos UTM has good education pricing and provides all this and a lot more
Wil replace the firewall and has excellent web filtering and application control
Also nice features for education like allowing google apps but limiting to your google domain

We are currently using Barracuda Web Filter (410) with a Watchguard firewall. This school year we are launching Google for Education with 160 Chromebooks to start the program.
We need to upgrade our webfilter and are considering another Barracuda as well as Litespeed, Websense and perhaps OpenDNS.
is there anyone who is in a similar situation that has some recommendation?
Here are a few more details:
School is 900+ students

What is default(1).aspx and why is it preventing me from accessing hotmail account?

After I enter my username and password at hotmail.com sign in, I recieve a message saying 'default(1).aspx is missing and it tries to download. Then an error saying it cannot read file. Sometimes I can access mail but mostly not.

Hi,
If you add other accounts to the Messages app after activating the iMessages account then by default (if you don't name them in the Description box) that take the name of the Service they join up to the point you have a second AIM valid Name or a second Jabber valid Name.
In My List my accounts are Named in the Description Box
AIM is Aol Instant Messenger so the Add Screen Shows AOL. You will see in the right hand pane under Account Info it says it is AIM.
You will see in the list several others are also AIM Valid accounts.
If you don't Name them yourself then the account info is used (like the iMessages one) when you have two or more for that service.
Google and Facebook run Jabber servers.
They are unlikely to work with a Hotmail ID (which is MSN and not Native to the Messages app).
You seem to have Added an Account as Google and tried to use a Hotmail ID
As the Google Servers only allow IDs that end @Googlemail.com or @gmail.com it will not work and you will be "Off Line".
The ID is "accepted" when you type it in as it conforms to an email Address.
Japib has their Facebook account called chat.facebook.com which happens to be the server name and that it how it appears in the list on the left in their Pic. It will also be in the Window Menu like that.
See also an older iChat version when you could only login one account type of each

There were only AIM and Jabber back then.

What is your favorite transaction and why?

Just wondering what your secret tools are... Willing to share? Transactions you use all the time, and without them you would be, uh, toast...
My favorite one is SE84 Repository Information System. I use it regularly to find objects in repository, like database tables, views, table fields, function groups, function modules, programs, logical databases, message classes, message number, SET/GET parameters, transactions, variants, screens, business add-ins, customer exits, change requests and authorizations.
A useful hint: You can also search by application hierarcy. For example, in 4.6c to find customer exits within MM, do as follows:
1. Start SE81
2. Select subtree MM with F9
3. Click Information system. SE84 is displayed.
4. Click Envir. and then Exit techniques and then Customer exits. Click enhancements. A search screen is displayed and development class field is pre-filled.
5. Press F8
What is your favorite transaction and why?
Regards,
Jarmo Tuominen

clearly SE80.
Starting 4.7 you have a button on top of the tree navigation where you can click the information system.
So you have (at least) three transactions in one: SE80, se84(85 and SE38.
I wonder why still some people prefer SE38. It's just SE80 minus functionality and overview plus wasted screen space.
Is there any existing function you can execute from SE38 that is not available in SE38? A lot the other way round.
regards,
Clemens

                          // The OS memory manager gets to update.
          System.out.println("Paused! i: " + i);
     } catch(OutOfMemoryError e) {

What RAM do I need and where can I get it from?

Hi all,
I know this is probably a simple question, but I just want to make sure I don't mess up my computer! I have an old school DV iMac, and bought the Mac OS X upgrade not too long after it came out (which is rather a while ago now!), but couldn't install it became I don't have enough RAM. And I obviously have just put it off and off. Now I'm at uni, and want the computer to work as well as it can for my mum, because she's even worse than me when it comes to computers. So, anyway, I need RAM. What type do I need and where can I get it from fairly cheaply? And how much would you recommend I get? My friend says he knows how to put it in, so all okay there hopefully/
My computer's details:
Processor info: PowerPC G3
Machine speed: 400MHz
OS: 9.2.2
Built-in memory: 64MB
I remember being able to get more details than this from somewhere on the computer, but I can't remember where...I haven't used it for 6 months or something, and am obviously getting forgetful.
Hope someone can help. If you need to know anything else, tell me where to get the info from and I will tell you!
Cheers,
Fran

Hi,
I just bought some RAM from Crucial.
If you go to www.crucial.com/uk and follow the Crucial Memory Advisor Tool, you should be able to find the RAM for your Mac.
1 GB sticks are pretty good value at the moment (they've even gone down a few pounds since I bought mine a week ago) and if you enter this code (found it on aonther thread here) you might get a couple of pounds knocked off the total: CUSTOMPC
There's also places like Kingston & Cancom to try, as well as Misco.co.uk. But Crucial select the recommended RAM for your Mac.
Also, when you think you've found the right RAM and want to buy it, try the Apple agent chat, and double-check with them.
Hope this is useful.

Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

What is web.xml and why it is used?

hi,
am new to servlet technology, i tried to find a topic like this in this fourm also in google but didn't get a exact one. can anybody explain me or suggest me some resource about this.
thanx in advance.
Max

hi stevejluke,
thanx for the correct link.
nx for the correct link. but what i in doubt with is
why we should use web.xml? may be my question is very
silly, may be too basic, forgive me for that...
Thanx & Regards,
SaikatAt the most basic level:
There are several versions of the Servlet specification, You need the web.xml to tell the server which version of the spec your application conforms to so the server knows how to deal with different things.
If you have a servlet, you also need the web.xml to define what URL signals a request that should be handled by your servlet.
At this point, you need to sit down and read a book. Do what it says, blindly at first. Just do what it says (but do try to understand the 'what' of it, just don't question the 'why'). After you have a few applications running, go back and ask yourself this question again and try to see what you are using the web.xml for in those applications you have.

What is Wrong with filter and filter-mapping in My web.xml?

First, thanks all for your attention.
I have checked the place where I should place <filter> and <filter-mapping> in web.xm. They should be after the <display-name>, before <servlet> and <servlet-mapping>.
However, as soon as I insert the <filter> and <filter-mapping> elements in my web.xml, all my struts-bean.tld, struts-html.tld, etc. in the web.xml cannot be found at the runtime.
Please help in identifying the problem. Thank you.

Informal Poll - What is your fav distro and why.

I am curious as to what version of Linux is prefered and why. I have been using OpenSUSE for my desktops and Ubuntu for servers for the last few years and would be interested to see what others favor and why...
I have six computers all running Linux:
Workshop Bench (forensic tools, disk drive tools and software recovery tools) - OpenSUSE (KDE) 13.2 tumbleweed. Intel Core2Quad 8800
Home Server (Cloud service, Print Server, Backup Server, Media Server) - OpenSUSE (KDE) 13.2 tumbleweed. Intel i3 2350
Web Server (Public Webserver, Cloud and Scheduling) - Ubnutu (hardened) 14.01 LTS AMD A6
Three loaner computers, all AMD A6 based machines - Linux Mint 17.1
So far the least troublesome have been Ubuntu / Mint computers. OpenSUSE seems to be the best KDE platform but I may need to switch to the stable release tree when the next iteration is released. Linux Mint is the most user freindly of the Debian crowd, with good feedback on all counts. The Ubuntu desktop was not well recieved, most thought it was just too "ugly" to be useable.
I am dual booting my G580 between Windows 8.1 (factory OS) and Mint at the moment. As a point of interest - my gaming computer and my better half's computer both run Windows 7 at the moment. Will not be moving to Windows 10, mostlikely to Mint.

I've been using Manjaro XFCE on my X61t for a while (and briefly on the W520). A bit heavier, but seems to get the job done.
That has an interesting look / feel to it. I am just looking into running Mint on an older notebook to see if it would be a good alternative OS for my clients that do not want to migrate to Windows 8/8.1/10 and the metro desktop.

What is a PRAM reset and why did I have to do it ?

My very new (4 days) 20" Aluminium iMac was getting quite noisy, so much so that I called for support today.
The Apple tech explained how to do a 'P.RAM' reset, which in fairness does seem to have resolved the issue. (something to do with a FAN, I think).
I would like to know more about the causes of this, and why would I have to do it a such a new machine ?
Is there something wrong with my machine ? What are the chances I wil have to do this again ?
Thanks....

All, thank you for your time and valuable information. I am relieved that nothing is wrong with my system, but I must say that I find it is a little odd that a user has to do take these steps after making hardware or software changes to the system. I would expect this to be done as part of the install routines. Perhaps that is why other (you know who) systems need rebooting after most hardware or software changes.
I know Apple like to be seen as the machines where such things are not required, but clearly they are !
Thanks again.
