Why do I keep seeing popups "ads blocked for....."

These popups are small, rectangular, and have yellow borders containing diagonal black stripes. They contain the text "Ads blocked for" and a set of numbers.
I have unblocked the block popups menu and have deleted some site's cookies.
I use Virus Barrier X6 on a Mac OS X 10.6.6.
Hope you can help, and that this is a sensible question, as I'm a newby. Thanks,
fossit

and why is apple so hard to talk to?

  • Why PR department can see invited vendor list for RFQ

    I found that PR department can see invited vendor list for RFQ in PR Document Status tab.  In my company, invited vendor list should be kept confidential and only authorized persons can access.   As PR authorizatin control is not down to PR creator, this information may be disclosed to other non-related persons wihtin same purhasing group.   In SAP,  I would like to know the rationale to let the PR department know the RFQ vendors.    Moerover, I want to understand the current industrial practice on treating RFQ vendor list information so that I can make recommendation for senior review.   Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    You issue well explained the 50% of solution. As you said importance for all organization to have secured and efficient authorization concept. Based on organizational structures and business processes an authorization matrix( is just working sheet) is very useful for to control all t.codes under Module / Business role specific.
    For example:
    Purchase Requisition (internal purchasing document) is a request by any department to purchasing department to supply material or provides service. Only here user(Mr.X) in department create PR(ME51N) and Department head (Mr.Y) release (ME54N)the Purchase Requisition(PR). For change PR , you can use Mr.X and you can have another User ID Mr.Z { Mr.X, Mr.Y & Mr.Z should not have access for RFQ or PO details}
    Once Purchase Requisition released, then its responsibility purchasing organisation or respective purchasing group (buyer) , start work on determining source by sending Request for quotation(RFQ,ME41) to different vendors by Mr.A. Once all quotation received, you can maintain quotation in ME47 by user Mr.B. In vendor selection process, you can compare quotation in ME49 by user Mr.C.( also you can set approval process for Request for quotation ME45 by Mr.D) {Mr.A, Mr.B,Mr.C,Mr.D may have access on PR but no access on PO)
    Once Vendor decided, user (Mr.E) can create Purchase Order (PO )and then it will be released by Mr.F, so then only PO print send to vendor. {Mr.E & Mr.F have access on PR & PO}
    Likewise you should have different users for authorisation based on role in inventory management ( Mr. G can receive goods, Mr.H can have authorisation for Excises, Mr.J can have issuing goods)
    For more check

  • Why do I keep seeing the Adobe Splash/Credits Screen?

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended suite. I am very new to Photoshop so bear with me. Whatever I do, it seems the Adobe Splash/Credits screen comes on first and then it takes me to the screen I have selected. For example, whenever I select a photo while in Bridge, before it goes directly into Photoshop for viewing/editing, I will see the splash screen. It seems to take forever to keep switching screens. Is there a way to get rid of that splash screen appearing every time?
    Thank you for any input or advice.

    Hi, Hunt
    Thank you for your reply. I showed an expert Photoshop friend of mine yesterday what was happening and he said something's not right. He uses CS2, not 3.
    I have both Photoshop and Bridge running minimized. I have my preferences that Bridge automatically launches with Photoshop. For each photo I open in Bridge, as it takes me into Photoshop, that lovely splash screen starts to roll first. Remember, Photoshop is already running. I'm thinking there's a bug in my software. I can't imagine that this is normal. And it's not consistent,which is even stranger. I was going to attempt to install the program on another computer just to see if the same thing happens. Should I uninstall and reinstall?

  • Why do I keep getting a page block error when trying to use Netflix app. I can't even load the website

    Everytime I try to load the Netflix app, I get as far as the red screen and it stops loading. The iPad doesn't freeze, it just stops. Then when I try to go to their website, I get a blocked error message. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Some possibilities:
    You are on a network that blocks streaming content or otherwise won't let you access it
    You have restrictions set to block some content (Settings App, General, Resrrictions).

  • Why does firefox keep allowing popup windows for Local Yellowbook Pages by Yellowbook even tho I have popups disabled on my computer?

    this pop up comes up any old time, not when i'm clicking another link or anything - i can just be reading a page, or be on facebook, anything, and it comes up and suggests something out of the blue, like "search for your local state college doctors on yellowbook". (example: here is a URL it just brought up in a popup while i was just reading facebook: http://ypeek.yellowbook.com/yellow-pages/?what=doctors&where=state+college%2C+pa)
    I definitely did NOT download anything from Yellowbook and in fact NEVER use it, so that makes this very strange. Also, my brother-in-law (a computer programmer) ran software checks on my computer and cleaned everything up, and there were no viruses, etc. but this still happens.
    can you help or advise? thank you!

  • Why do I keep seeing the connect iPod to iTunes after a simple software update?

    I was prompted to upgrade to iOS 6 today, and so I did. About 30 minutes later, iTunes flashes an alert that says: "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." It says if I restore it, it'll be reset to factory defaults, but that I have the option to restore contacts and texts later. Will all my apps such as Facebook, Spotify, TextMe, and Twitter still be intact? I also don't understand why my iPod screen will not change or move...it's stuck on the picture of the iTunes logo with an arrow with a cord beneath it. Any help is appreciated!
    I also attempted this, with 0 result: http://geekindisguise.wordpress.com/2009/07/16/how-to-put-ipod-touch-iphone-into -dfu-mode/

    Maybe this:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    If the Apps are in your iTunes library restoring from backup will also restore those apps. Synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup. You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Why do I keep seeing the letters GPRS ???

    This keeps appearing where the wifi icon is at the top right!? Happens all the time thoughout the day and when it reads GPRS i then have NO INTERNET!!!! I've NEVER had this problem with my previous iphones? I have the 5s. So i just need to wait around until it goes away? Can anyone help I'm losing my mind over this!

    GPRS is just a slower data connection, it's treated the same as EDGE and 3G.  While I don't know for sure, I read that if you get into an Edge data area and then slide into a 3G area, the phone will continue to say GPRS.

  • Why do I keep seeing DRMError 3343 or "event.drmUpdateNeeded" or "event.systemUpdateNeeded"?

    After updating to Flash Player 10.2, customers may report seeing the error codes mentioned in the thread title.  Typically, a call to the SystemUpdater API to update the Flash Access Module corrects this problem.  However, if the user downloaded Flash Player 10.2 between 02/08/2011 and 02/28/2011, they may encounter an infinite loop of the errors mentioned in this thread title.
    To resolve this issue, the user must uninstall and re-install Flash Player (from www.adobe.com).  This is because a Flash Player 10.2 hotfix was released on 02/28/2011.

    Heh, I encountered this problem yesterday, though I managed to figure out how to fix it by consulting the Run-Time Error documentation.
    However what would be really handy for people in the future is if someone at Adobe could update the Understanding the protected content workflow document (I used http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7ce3.html for reference) to mention that catching error 3343 would be worthwhile along with the 3344.

  • Why do I keep seeing "L" as a song title?

    Hello all,
    I have uploaded a few songs to my iPod and while I listen to them I look at the screen and it shows the title of the song as being "L." I've looked on iTunes when it is connected, but everything seems fine. In the "Songs" menu it shows no odd titles, but it is only while the song is playing. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Does it display ALL song titles as "L"? Are the rest of the tags correct (the artist and album names)? It's possible that the songs in question are using characters that the iPod doesn't recognize (I saw a similar symptom appear with some Hawaiian songs I have); try renaming the songs and seeing if that helps. If this does affect every song, try restoring the iPod and seeing how it works after that.

  • Why do I keep seeing FONTS in the TRASH as "Recovered Files"?

    My computer isn't crashing... but most of the time when I restart I see that there's something in the trash.
    Oh, it's a Recovered Files folder! Wow, must be important?
    Nah. It's just a few random fonts.
    This actually happens quite often. And I don't even remember using those fonts. It happens even when I don't use Word or InDesign.
    I think it might be Safari?
    ???

    It is Safari, as I have occasionally seen the same thing. I think what happens is this:
    1. You go to a site that specifies some odd-ball font that you do not have installed, but you do have a copy of it somewhere (in my case I have an enormous font collection on a backup drive)
    2. The system now knows where all fonts are--don't remember whether this started in Leopard or Snow Leopard--regardless of WHERE those fonts are, and Safari has access to this info
    3. Since the font isn't installed Safari asks you if it can use the font
    4. Safari copies the font into a temporary location, probably one of the standard tmp folders in /private/var/folders/ and leaves the font there
    5. When you shutdown and subsequently restart the system disposes of a lot of gunk that gets left in the tmp folder, and puts said gunk in the Recovered Items folder.
    If it annoys you to have stuff in the Trash, you could go ahead and install the fonts. However I have never bothered since TextEdit ALWAYS leaves a bit of trash behind, and I use it nearly every day, so I almost always have to empty the Trash and the Recovered Items folder anyway.

  • Why do I keep seeing Missing required field: Publication when I try to publish a file in iBooks format?

    I have produced a book in iBooks format and filled in everything asked for including but I can't slide the file into the window area and I get a message, Missing required field: Publication. I don't understand what I need to do to complete the transaction. I hope someone can understand and tell me what to do. Thank you.

    Thank you. You're dealing with an old woman doing her best here.   Sorry, I was somewhat distracted when I posed the question having been wrestling with it all afternoon. Yes, I am using iTunes Producer and have filled in all the information requested including cover art. The file is saved in iBooks format.
    I click on Files at top left, which I assume to be the thing to do, and get a a new page showing red circle with a number 1 in it. Clicking on that produces this :
    "Drag and drop the full book that will be used on the iBooks store. Books can be in the EPUB or iBooks format. Submitting a new book version will replace the existing version on the iBooks store.
    Missing required field: Publication. "
    I have tried to drag and drop the file into the box on the left but it won't allow me to. Clearly something is missing but I don't know what. I am just baffled as to what is wanted.

  • I have firefox 6.02. Why does it keep freezing on me lately for the last week or so?

    Every few seconds, the firefox just freezes & I need to wait a few minutes & I can't do anything else with firefox until it cleares! WHY?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
