Why are Chinese characters appearring on tabs?

Hello,
I seem to be having a problem. From time to time, what appears to be Chinese characters/radicals appear on my tabs - as shown in the image. I have 'refreshed' firefox a couple of times but I can't seem to narrow down where this is coming from or why it is happening.
I'm not sure if my system or version of Firefox has been hijacked, or if it's an add-on that is allowing an intrusion. Well - really - I'm not sure what's happening.
Any ideas?

Nevermind.
I see that it's the McAfee SiteAdvisor program that's creating the problem.
I will contact McAfee about this, and disable or uninstall SiteAdvisor.

  • Chinese characters appear OK in preview but not when printed

    I am working on sap script .
    In which I am facing problem in printing Chinese character.
    In the spool(print preview) I am able to see Chinese characters printed but while printing on a paper it is appearing as '#' Characters.
    I am using Font Family as COURIER in basic settings and If I try changing Font to CHSONG(Chinese character font), alignment getting distorted.
    I have tried several options available in SDN, but not able to find exact solution on the issue.
    Please help me with proper solution.

    HI friend,
    Try changing the device type which suits the Chinese font. There are many device types which support device types.
    Example : CNSAPWIN.
    Just try this friend. If you face queries please revert back to me i will help you.

  • What are Chinese characters seen

    Sometimes when I open Firefox, I see Chinese characters strong all the way across the top of the area of the banner. I am concerned that maybe somebody is stealing my information. Not sure if somehow that was part of the hidden background that I s not supposed to be seen. But I need to know either how to get rid of them or to know that they're not going to be a problem for me.

    Hi, this is a known problem with McAfee Site Adviser, so if you are using it, that could be the cause. Here's a link to [https://community.mcafee.com/thread/76071?tstart=0 their forum,] and [http://service.mcafee.com/faqdocument.aspx?id=TS100162 here's instructions] for removing it - should you wish to.
    It is said on their forum that updating McAfee will fix it, which might be an option.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why are certain characters invalid in SharePoint file names/folders?

    Hello. I know which characters are not accepted in file names, but someone asked me today why that was and I was stumped! Does anyone know?

    They are usually invalid because the have a special meaning to the operating system or to URLs. For example the slash "/" is not allowed because it is used as a seperator in a URL.  (http://yourserver/yousite/somepage.htm).
    Greater than (>) and less than (<) are not allowed as they are used to redirect output from a DOS command to a file ( DIR *.doc > listofwordfiles.txt )
    So each reserved character has a special use somewhere... in DOS, in HTTP, in SharePoint, etc.

  • Why are photos not appearing complete when in PDf/preview mode for purchasing a photobook?

    Everything appears perfect in the project mode, but when I went to order I got an error message from customer support.  When I check the book in Preview my photos are coming up with scratchy white marks throughout.  Almost all are super hi-res so that shouldn't be the issue.  This is my first time with iPhoto, I usually have used Shutterfly, so am now concerned I just wasted 100 hours!

    What size book? This has been reported doing extra large books - it has been reported to go away when the book size is reduced to large
    Report to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

  • Why are white lines appearing in images in PDF files but not the original InDesign files?

    Hi folks!
    Let me just start out by saying that I'm not a graphic designer and have basically no experience with graphic design programs, aside from the little futzing around I've tried to do with InDesign. My company (which publishes a monthly magazine) has decided that it would be a great idea to get the files to our magazine from the graphic design firm that actually handles the production end of things so that we may offer back articles, etc., and modify them as needed. Somehow I've gotten assigned the task of handling this. However, I've encountered some problems along the way. The graphic design firm uses Quark, we own InDesign (CS3) and use Markzware to convert the files. Most things seem to work okay in this arrangement but I'm having problems with the images in the file when I create PDFs. Although the images look fine in the InDesign files (and are of print quality), when I create PDFs of some files, thin white lines appear over the images in the PDF document. I asked our graphic designer about this but she has no idea, and she isn't very familiar with InDesign.
    So, my question is, where are these lines coming from and how do I stop them from appearing? As a reminder, I'm not a graphic designer and am fdairly ignorant in design software terminology. If you're kind enough to try to help me with this problem, I'm going to require an explanation in plain English. Basically explain it to me like you would to a 10 year old.
    If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it!
    Thanks in advance,
    Lynn

    I think Bob was typing too fast and meant to ask if you were distilling, not to tell you distill.
    Distilled PDF (you get distilled by printing to PDF rather than exporting) always flattens transparency, which is what makes those white "stitching" lines.
    You can make the stitching disappear on screen by turning off smoothing in the Acrobat prefs, and it shouldn't print on a press, but it sounds like you may be doing the output on a digital machine and it's likely to show on the lower resolution output.

  • Why are iOS apps appearing in iBooks on my Mac ?

    Hello,
    I got a problem with iBooks application on my Mac (Mac mini mid 2011, OS X 10.9).
    Recently, I noticed I had lots of icons which are not books or pdf files in my iBooks library, but apps I downloaded on my iPhone from the app store. You can see it on the attached screen shots.
    They appear as 'downloading', but they never download…
    I tried to quit and launch again iBooks, restart my Mac mini… but nothing changed.
    Do you have an idea of how I could fix it ?
    (Without reinstalling the system would be better…)
    Thank you.
    Guillaume

    You can backup your iTunes library any number of ways. An external hard drive using Time Machine or any other backup software would be one way. You can also backup the library to DVD. Read both of these articles.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1382
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
    Of course you can always download the apps again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID that you purchased them with.

    Why  do APDivs move?
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2181263#2181263
    I think you should seriously rethink using APDivs as a primary layout method.  Use CSS default positioning (which is no positioning at all).  Then align elements with CSS Margins, Padding and Floats.
    Basic CSS Page Layout (no APDivs used & no animals harmed)

  • Why are images not appearing in my emails

    I use mailchimp to send out details which include images.To test each one I send it to myself.Suddenly the images have stopped appearing but the text is still there.Also previous emails I have sent to myself have lost their images.

    : What are you using to read your emails? On what device?

  • Why Are Pages Opening in New Tabs Instead of Within the Pages?

    Up until I upgraded to 10.1.10, tabs would almost always open in the same page as the link that contained it. If I wanted it to open in a new tab, or window, I can do that myself, using a menu. Now, it opens many more tabs than I need open, and only clutters up the screen, & adds more RAM usage to the already lumbering browser. Why is this happening, and is there any way to correct this?

    No, cause it happens on many sites. I don't see what makes it do that for most, but then once in a while, it will open over the current page, like it almost always did before. I know it does this when I click a link from any Google search results page, which I don't recall it doing before. Up till now (5.1.10), there was always a preference setting where I could select links opening in new tabs, or not. Now, they open wherever they choose to, usually in new tabs, but sometimes not....
    Here's my options:
    "Open pages in tabs instead of windows:
    Some links on webpages open in new Safari windows instead of replacing the current webpage. Choose Never to have such links open in new Safari windows instead of tabs. Choose Always to open new tabs instead of windows.
    Choose Automatically to have Safari open pages in tabs unless they’re designed to fit in specially formatted separate windows; Safari opens those pages in windows instead."
    So, none of these choices allow for pages to replace current webpages, which makes no sense.

  • [SOLVED] Why are control characters visible in text files??

    Hi,
    If I direct the output of 'ls' to a file like:
    ls > file.txt
    and open the file in a editor such as vi, joe or mousepad, it looks like this:
    [[01;34m22x22[[0m
    [[01;34m24x24[[0m
    [[01;34m32x32[[0m
    [[0mindex.theme[[0m
    [[01;34mscalable[[0m
    [[m
    I just did the same thing on an old slackware box and no control characters are visible. The same for a recent LFS build. I realize I could probably pipe through dos2unix, but it shouldn't be happening anyway. Any input is appreciated.
    Thanks

    at the DOS prompt (sorry, old habits die hard :-) ) type
    alias ls
    and see what the results are.  Compare that against your slackware or lfs builds.  You will probably find that the color= option is different - most builds will not include the color ANSI sequences if you pipe the output, but if it says color=always the color codes will be included in the redirected file.
    Assuming you find an alias for ls that forces color output, you need to find where that is taking place... in your ~/.bashrc file?  in /etc/profile.d?  And change that to alias ls='ls --color=tty' or something sensible like that.

  • Why are there only three adjustment tabs in PSE 12?

    Hi.
    I just purchased PSE 12 on seeing the georgeous features in Camera Raw 8. Apart from the major pain in getting PSE installed on my machine... I am pretty surprised to see that there are only three adjustment tabs on my Camera Raw dialog and also several tools missing. It is a fresh install on a Windows 8.1 Pro machine, CR just updated to 8.3. I tried it with various DNGs from supported cameras.
    Are features like tone curve and the ability to only select certain areas of the pictures not available for PSE customers???
    Kind regards,
    A. Lange

  • Why are iPad Notes appearing on my Mail Archive?

    I entered a sensitive item in Notes on my iPad and nowhere else. Today that item has appeared on my iMac in a Gmail Archive folder on Mail. Why on earth should there be any connection between these two functions on different machines,  and how much else goes from my iPad to Google without my knowledge ?  iCloud is not (to the best of my knowledge) active.
    Any explanation would be appreciated please -- this is rather worrying.
