What is binkiland and how can I remove it now?

after I uploaded firefox it added an additional tab called Binkiland. It looks like tracking software. I don't want to use it. I don't want it on my computer

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc.
#please go to the firefox ''menu ≡ > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
#also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
#finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner], which are specialised in adware and browser hijackers.

  • There is a black bar just above the tabs. Please help me what is it and how can I remove it..

    Hi Every One,
    I Updated my Mozilla-Firefox to ver. 3.6, and after that I see a black bar above the tabs , and below the other toolbars.
    Please help me how can I remove it, and what is it!
    Thanks...

    Issues with a black (empty) toolbar can be caused by a plugin or an extension that is not compatible with Firefox 3.6 and isn't working properly anymore.
    A toolbar like the "ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows" and other toolbars like "Ask.com" or "My Web Search" can cause this issue.
    You can see the toolbars in View > Toolbars.<br />

  • Worm virus listed in Bluetooth devices - what is this and how can I remove it?

    When I go into the Bluetooth menu, a device appears called Worm Virus 00011100101011110 as not paired. I have other apple iPhones and they do not list this device. I think it might be a virus. Has anyone seen this before and how do I remove it?

    As far as I know, its not possible for a mobile device to get a virus. What are the devices that you currently pair with your ipad?
    Try resetting by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
    if that doesn't work restore the ipad as new.

  • Hello there! Does anybody know RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll. What is it and how can I remove it because it slows down my computer. Thank you.

    Starting my computer this morning I immediately was informed by Norton Security that RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll is safe. I don´t know this data and I want to remove ist because it slows down my computer. Has that something to do with Firefox? The Information of Firefox-Troubleshooting shows the following detail:
    Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0.1
    Can you help me?
    Thank you in anticipation.

    To whom it may concern here the answer I received today from Norton Support:
    ''I would like to inform you that the RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll files was downloaded as an update for the Firefox browser which runs in the background and Norton program does not have any control on the downloads till it is safe.
    If the download is safe, Norton program will notify you and will block, if file finds to be suspicious.''
    Now I know what it is, but nevertheless my PC is still rather slow.

  • I am trying to listen BBC radio news from BBC App, but on pressing the button I always get the error "there was an error playing this radio feed". What is the source of this error and how can I remove it?

    I am trying to listen BBC radio news from BBC App, but on pressing the button "live radio" I always get the error "there was an error playing this radio feed". What is the source of this error and how can I remove it?

    That is probably just a generic error message and you might not ever know what is causing it. Assuming that you have been able to play live radio with the app in the past (I know nothing about the app) and assuming that all other Internet related functions (Safari, email, etc.) are working properly on your iPad, quit the app completely and reboot your iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that fails to resolve the issue, you might want to reboot your router, unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

    You can enable disk use in iTunes and browse your iPod, or you can restore your iPod so everyting on it would be erased.

  • Norton Firewall logging connections from usr/sbin/nmbd every 6 seconds...  What is this, and how can I stop it?

    This whole situation first started with a complaint from my ISP that it appeared I had a trojan virus...  around 1100-1200 messages per hour were being run through their servers via my account.  I have also Anti-Virus enabled, so I was left scratching my head...
    No viruses found on a full scan - so I started watching processes and connections.  This nmbd process is suspicious...  I don't run windows file sharing, nor have I ever.  This just popped up recently.  I also had two mac tech support calls, and one to Symantec - and it ran fine for a couple of days - but it's back again. 
    What is this, and how can I find the culprit, and remove it permanently...?
    Thanks in advance for any advice!
    --Jeff

    Thanks Thomas, appreciate the insight!  Thanks for taking the time to help me think through this...
    I have reset the password  twice now...
    It's only impacting one account, and the ISP says it's local to me - somewhere on my local network.
    I do have a few devices on my home network.  The only one with windows is my macbook air running parallels.  I just use this to browse some web projects I work on (view in IE to make sure everything is looking like it should). 
    The passwords I have used both times - they were ones set by my isp - the type you can't remember, they seem rather strong (upper/lower case letters, numbers, symbols).  That's what leads me to believe it's also local - something on my machine.  And it only seems to be impacting one email account (I have 5 running in Mac Mail).
    WiFi network is protected by WPA2 - just checked to be sure.  All good there.
    Now, in Norton Firewall log - I can see incoming and outgoing connections via Windows File Sharing/nmbd. 
    The reason I feel/felt that this is related to the spam sends is that once I saw the number of connects, and roughly equals the number of sends per hour of spam - I stopped the process with the firewall and suddenly my isp says the spam sends stop. That led me to believe they are related. Perhaps this virus or malware has spoofed it's name and is identifying itself as nmbd?  I have no idea.  Just scared to turn it all off just yet.
    I did notice that Moutain Lion does not run this...  (nmbd).
    I did wonder about the Air sending something off of windows - but this all happened while it was off, laying on the desk next to me.  It rarely gets used unless I'm testing or traveling.
    I can understand nmbd being useful part of the system, I cannot understand how it would be very useful if I didn't turn it on, it connects at that frequency, and I don't have file sharing enabled.  That's why I am hesitant to turn Norton off, and hope that everything just goes away.  I want to try and get this problem figured out as simply turning Norton off doesn't seem like I'm taking steps to eliminate the problem.  Perhaps Norton is causing other issues - and I'll be removing the software asap - but want to make sure the spam sends cease.
    Let me know if that sparks any ideas...  Thanks again!

    You're not obligated to insert a gift code. But you can purchase gift codes on the Apple online store (gift cards or certificates) or Apple Retail store
    Gift codes are pre paid cards so you can use credit on the iTunes Store to purchase content

  • Can't talk to other apple products outside of wifi or when I don't have data. What's wrong and how can I fix it ?

    So I just bought a new iPhone 4S and I have to share my data with four other people so to avoid using it up I use wifi whenever possible. I use iMessage to talk to iPhones but when I'm not around wifi or when I don't have any more data, I don't receive any of their regular SMS messages but I can send them. I checked my friend's iPhone and he receives my message as an SMS but when he replied it was still in iMessage. Is it not detecting that my iMessage is off ?What's wrong and
    how can I fix it ?

    I think I fixed the apps, though.
    *Turn off your wifi and only turn it on when you want to use it
    *Lower your brightness
    *Turn off "Push" on notifications and mail and turn on "Manual"
    *Return to your home screen and then double click twice and tap and hold one of the apps you've previously opened, when they jiggle tap the red on each app until fully erased.
    *Don't use your ipod while it is charging, allow at least a 10 minute charge (fully charged) before using it again.
    See if this helps(: ... I still have no answer bout the camera issue. I might be going to apple soon so we will see then.
