It's been raining all night and also now. stumped for a picture. also not a good day, my computer has a virus it says and won't let me do anything unless I call the number on the screen. will wait till Hans comes home and in the meantime, I'm on his computer. this is a filler today from September 2013. don't know if I ever chose this picture before...but here it is.
What a great photo, Bruni. I love all the detail you captured. What a cool web. I wish we had them here like this but so much fun to see photos like this. FAV
@darsphotos You know it's so odd? I get the darndest things come in when I click on 365. now Hans has no icon on his for 365 and he never gets anything flying in. I'm talking websites, advertisement, telling me I have a dangerous virus and to call this number for help, to a point where I can't click them out to get rid off...I physically have to shut the computer down to get rid of them. then I turn it back on and they're back again as soon as I open up my 365 page. it's bothersome and so time consuming. we have to go into our programs and see what came in and uninstall it. one comes in and it's like a floodgate opens and more and more s==t come through. sorry, but is annoying.
@bruni I have given up on electronics and 365 is included. It does not always work as it should. I do not have an icon for 365. What is that anyways? I would ignore all that tells you to call a number. I have not had that happen with 365. Maybe Ross has an idea how to help you get rid of those. I would not be happy with it. I get adds with my email on the side but not to call a number. So strange. I hear you, once it starts is hard to stop. I sure understand. We are having problems with our TV tonight, well one of them. When we change the channel we get the same show at the same place in time. Will call tomorrow as the company is closed for tonight. Glad I have another hookup to use till this gets resolved. Definitely a problem. It was so much simpler before electronics but what I love is all the people I have met like you. We would never have met. Now to take some photos and post them. I am always behind. I do hope you are doing well. Take care. Good luck with the 365 problem. Nice to hear back from you too.
Great shot, Bruni! I don't think I ever remember seeing this! Fav. As for a virus. You don't have one. That pop up is a hoax to get you to click so DON'T CLICK! If you click it will then give you a virus. What do you use for a web browser? If you use Internet Explorer, stop using it. I prefer Google Chrome. I have no issues whatsoever. No pop up windows, no nothing. And Chrome won't let you go to a malicious site. Also, remember to have a good Anti-virus program (Norton or something but not McAfee - they are wicked back at keeping your computers safe) and also run in conjunction with that malwarebytes (www.malwarebytes.org). That's free program (or you can pay $20 for one time fee and keep it for life) that helps in conjunction with AV programs to keep adware, spyware and malware from getting through that can slip through other Anti-virus programs. Download a program called SuperAntiSpyware and run a full system scan and run a full system virus scan using your own anti-virus software and run a full scan using malwarebytes. If you still get those pop-ups, DON'T CLICK THEM! Use ctrl+alt+del and click the Applications tab and close the browser you are using, which should get rid of the pop-ups. If you still think you have a virus, back up ALL of your pictures, music and documents but nothing that has an executable file (an extension with .exe) and try to reformat your hard drive from boot discs that should have been done when you got your computer. Or you could take it to a local computer store to fix for you if you are unsure of how to do it yourself. I hope that helps.
@prttblues THANK YOU BE. I LET HANS READ THIS. HE IS MORE FAMILIAR WITH IT. HIS PROBLEM IS, HE DOESN'T LIKE 365. HE SAYS THEY LET ALL THIS STUFF COME IN. MIND YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND HE HAS NOTHING AGAINST ME BEING ON 365, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
@bruni It's not 365. There are no ads and no pop-ups. There never have been. I don't know where he got that notion from. It more than likely is malware that is causing your issues and it usually comes from inadvertently clicking on something that you didn't know you clicked on. Never click on a pop-up of any kind. Always use the ctrl+alt+del and close your browser. If you're using Internet Explorer, make sure it's up to date. If you are using it on an old operating system, switch to Google Chrome. It protects you more than Internet Explorer. And I find Chrome much faster to use as well. But the pop-up windows and extra windows have nothing to with 365. It's a clean site. I just reread what I wrote and it should have read "McAfee is wicked baD at keeping computers safe, not 'back'. Just do a complete scan with the programs I mentioned for malware. If nothing pops up, bring it to a professional. You may have had this for awhile and it could be completely embedded on your computer. Never click anything you are not familiar with. Even if it's an email from a friend. If you get an email from a friend in your inbox with their name as a subject, report it to your email provider that your friend has been hacked and then message that friend to let them know. That happens from time to time depending on email accounts. Unless you know that something is being sent to you as an attachment (like if I were to send you a photo, I'd tell you in advance), don't open it until you've verified it's for real. Just some other ways of keeping your computer safe. But again - the stuff popping up on your computer has nothing to do with the 365 site. So you can rest easy on that one. Hope I made sense. It's late (1:30am) and I need to go to bed. Will check more of your project tomorrow after the back cracker in the morning.
