How do I remove ticker (news block pop-up) with screen



Frankly, the problem of the informer in the pop-up Internet eksplorere I encountered only once, and then, not on your computer. Perhaps the time has established a firewall Outpost Firewall, blocking access to the computer network of the dirtiest. 
In general, this article has arisen because of, frequent in recent visits to the blog to, in fact, a search query. If it is to summarize, it sounds like: "help remove the virus or remove the pop-up a syndication feed it the same informer ruxvideosdghdfghdfgh with the Internet I have the screen of the computer code without free sms / sms». Approximately so, in different variants, and already a hundred times. A small search on the Internet showed that the problem is urgent, therefore, describe the symptoms and give its decision.

Let us briefly describe the problem. Often, in themselves guess what, sites and on sites with free programs, music, movies and so on, established special programs to be implemented in a user's computer informer adult sites, or the news stream. Alternatively, it may establish a virus, downloaded, along with any file from the Internet. Perhaps it will be installed along with a special video codec to view video from the site. In general, as it gets to you in the computer a lot of options. And after the next reboot the computer and launch IE browser, the bottom of the screen appears with a banner advertising that can not be closed.








In informers also have a suggestion to send an SMS, so that it can be removed. Of course not a fact that it will disappear after entering the code, and not the fact that this code, you generally get. But the creators of this program are beaten on the psychology - hardly a young man or a member of the office wants the parents, or boss, saw it in his computer. And accordingly sent smski. Do not do it! Must be protected, while in the network - antivirus and firewall. Alternatively, you may receive the informer, in general, blocking the work of the browser, and requires subscription fee for using them - this is also a divorce.
 
The most common solution of the following.

Open Internet Explorer.
We go in the top menu - clicked "Tools" - we click "Internet Options" - we click the Programs tab - we click "Add-Ins" - choose "Add-ins, used by Internet Explorer».
Find all the elements containing the name of ending * lib.dll.
Click on these add-ins one by one, and at the bottom of the page click "Disable"
Exit Options, click "OK".
In order to take effect, you need to close Internet Explorer and start it again.

Theoretically, ticker should disappear. You may have to try to disable all add-ons, in turn, to identify desired.
 
Also in the "Options" you can get without running explorer. To do this, click Start, then Control Panel, and to open a folder, "Internet Options".
 
Also recommended in the Internet Options to delete cookies and Internet files (General Tab). And also set all the defaults by clicking Reset in the Advanced tab. 

If the problem is in the Opera browser, it is better to simply reinstall the browser, for this:

to remove (uninstall) the program;
remove the remnants of the C: \ Programm Files \ Opera;
reinstall.
 
Hopefully, this technique will help you remove a syndication feed, or informer, with the screen of your computer.
 
And finally I repeat: "Always use antivirus and firewall (firewall) while working in the network!".

How to safely use the Internet


I will start from experience.

Almost immediately after their companies to connect homes to the network and the first visits to the Internet, the strangeness began. First, when downloading the browser started open any sites (of course "interesting" content), then began braking.


But patience was exhausted when the night before normal finishing work on the second day when you turn around I was greeted by a message reading: "In your computer downloaded a virus and that you would not have done it will slow down your system. In order to get medication Bring $ 20 on a purse WebMoney WMZxxxxxxxx or E-Gold xxxxxxx. ». And indeed PC was working very slowly, including when running in Safe Mode.


The only solution, then for me was to reinstall the operating system by formatting drive C.


Unfortunately I did not even think to photograph the message. Because the number of purse you can go to arbitration Vebmani to WM-keeper blocked the attacker.


As you may have guessed I think, this article will focus on the fight against malware such as (but head and share it): e-mail worms, Internet worms, file viruses, Trojans, stealth viruses, polymorphic viruses, bodiless viruses, macro viruses, viruses amazing documents of MS Office, script viruses, spyware (Spyware), program-kidnappers passwords, dialer, adware (Adware), a potentially dangerous software, hacking tools, programs, hatches, joke programs, malicious scripts and the like - helluva lot of common in the network.


But something happened that had happened, because of the lack of appropriate software installed on your computer, simply did the necessary with the walking on the network. These are prog, used in conjunction antivirus + firewall (also known as a firewall).


Anti-Virus detects and protects the system from malware already running on your computer (viruses, Trojans, etc.), check the incoming mail and downloadable files. For security but a deep analysis of the system once a week should do, and periodically update the antivirus database.


Firewall also protects against outside intrusion, scanning the computer will warn about the activities of programs seeking access to the network. You'd be surprised how many of them (Wind, for example, although Refresh - Immediately turn off the automatic update system, if you are not licensed windose!). Firewall will also show all the connections currently set to a network that will block unwanted ads, banners and popapy, the activity of malicious scripts running (an elementary example is the already described way to run an undesirable site when you start the browser, which quickly begins to irritate).

I personally use an antivirus program for protection of ESET NOD32 and firewall Outpost FireWall.

In addition to these widely used are: Kaspersky Anti-Virus, DrWeb, Panda Internet Security, Norton AntiVirus; firewall Zona Alarm Security, AGAVA FireWall and many others.

There is also a mass of niche programs. Some of them are struggling just like with keyloggers or block only advertising. Others block the work of trojans gather information about your passwords to access various resources on the Internet and purse payment systems, analyzing the clipboard, and transmitting information to the host of the virus.

So these findings:

Need to attend to secure the protection of your computer (install antivirus and firewall programs - very desirable, in order to guarantee database updates, license, configure your firewall to Windows).

From time to do deep analysis of antivirus and a firewall for malicious programs.

Scan all files downloaded from the Internet for viruses (includes setting up a program-rocking).

Check also all e-mail and download files if you are not sure of their "clean", do not go to suspicious links in the letters had come as "spam".

Immediately delete suspicious if an antivirus program "says" that they are infected. Consider but one thing: Do not use simultaneously two anti-virus software - may cripple the system (they do not play well with each other).

Be sure to keep active anti-virus and firewall when you are on different warez and "interesting" sites.

Therefore, safe walks in the network.

On the apparent anonymity of the Internet. We remove the mask


Let's talk about anonymity on the Internet. Initially, creating your site, I even planned a category of articles on it. But, never wrote a single article. Although: "The question, of course, an interesting ...».

I will try to address this issue, both from the technical side and with the user. On the technical side, however, briefly - at the very not much experience in the matter, and it is boring. But by the simple user, try a little to tell, both on circumstantial evidence, to email, nickname and domains to their sites, look for people on the Internet. For complete and absolute work of my methods do not pretend to - I do not kulhatsker, and a simple user. Let's start.

Many beginning Internet users think they are anonymous. And be honest, behave in the network is not quite as behaving in life. And they are deeply wrong in this delusion. Even with the technical side, IP-address of your computer is always transmitted in the network. And the concerned service can "shake" your internet provider, when asked what he belonged to a subscriber at any given time. Even I, who have information about visitors, and aypishniku can roughly see where visitors come from. I do this using WHOIS-service, which many in the Internet. You, even now, you can also find out how you personally see the network (service - My IP Address). Similarly, working system of statistics of external services that I use on the site, and who use all the other webmaster and services in the network.

Of course, you can use a proxy server to change the IP - they can be configured in any browser. However, it turns out, they also pass the source IP-address in one of the parameters. And, if the site hosting the Software is installed, then the original IP can identify. That is, complete anonymity is not provided and the use of proxies as anonymizer. Moreover, they are both free and paid. Accordingly - slow and fast, in terms of speed of data transmission.

Alternatively, there is still socks-protocol, which, in principle, actually changes the IP address of his Socks-server. This method works like a proxy server. Information from the computer goes on the server service, and then, with a changed IP, the network.

This cheerful note, the technical aspects of anonymity in the network I stop to consider. Next, we consider real cases from his experience of finding people online.

Search your contacts with the man on the domain of his site

Need to find a contact with the author of the website may arise from various causes. For example, you want to place his ads or get advice on the issues covered on the site. A contact form on the resource is not available. As for me, so there was no need for such good reasons. I had to contact the author of the site on the deployment of its resources, articles from this blog, without complying with the rules of copyright content. Articles published without any mention of the source and without respect for their structure. And it was published without a simple thematic tex links, which are often very strongly complement the main content of articles. This is done by machine using different software.

I found this site by accident. Naturally, I had this reaction. To find there was just the domain of the site. To find the postal address of the owner of the site I used the Whois-service. Introduced in the search form data on the domain, its name and got the data. They are open, and, as a rule, e-mail address and name of the owner of the domain is present. Other data, up to residential address, as specified during the registration of the domain. But recently, web designer, finally got the opportunity to conceal personal information from public viewing. In general, the issue was settled, and the article removed from his site.

REM: So, you have the opportunity to learn information about me. Mmm, yes ... it is difficult to maintain your site and remain incognito. :)

Find people by e-mail

Life on the Internet without e-mail is not possible. If you are registered address for a single use of fictitious data to a free service, you will find the common man would be unlikely. But when you are actively using this address, then there is another matter.

Banal search using the search engine results for «name@mailserwis.zona», will show any reference to the address on the sites. Namely: your profiles on forums and other services for communicating, domains, sites that are in that mailbox are registered and so on. Thus, it is possible to make contact with the man to know his name and the city where he lives.

Knowing the city and the name, you can download the phone book and try to come with him on bond. Similar case describes one of the authors infoproduktov. Then the buyer does not have an address for sending the product and he had to go for us on the phone. The reaction of people was then, surprised, but there is no hacking techniques are not used.

Even easier with people who have boxes on Mail.Ru. If you have an account there, then going under the authorization of service "My World", just change the address bar of your browser to link your username to the login target mailbox. Will be released something like: «http://my.mail.ru/mail/Login/». Accordingly, you will come into the world of the subscriber created during registration. At least the name and last name will be there, of course, if they are not invented and people used the service open.

Another point, which concerns the people leading your Internet project. At any hosting site is the ability to create a large number of mailboxes that will have an icon after the "@" domain name site. After all, take, for example, the same «@ mail.ru». «Mail.ru» - here a web address. I have this to the fact that the domain name by copying and pasting it into your browser, you can click on «Enter», and go to the website owner's domain. You will be on the main page of a Web resource. If this is not the postal service, of course - then you will come to service.

REM: Oops ... And why it is all about? After all, you can now investigate all the secret and the gray part of my past and present on the Internet. :)))

Find people by nickname (login)

The incident happened when I did not find the man and his site for his email. The case occurred recently, and is connected with my newly open forum (http://vladekas.com/forum/). It registered person and put my claim that I tyryu his ideas. Not knowing a dream, nor spirit, neither he nor his site, had to spend time and find his project. Registration email it was with the domain site, but not the one he had in mind. Had to drive in search of his username, alias domain site. Then these parameters coincide. And you know, strangely enough, I found his profile on one of the free services of online diaries. There were also references to two of his site, one of which has sought a niche site for learning the use of the Internet novices, as well as name and date of birth. True if the past I really do not know. But, it does not matter. The result is a private correspondence with him, I deleted our intercourse with him at the forum on his own request.

The essence of this story is. Many users of the network, and including myself, use their same nicknames (he same login, it is ASA) at different sites (forums, blogs, social networks). It is on these names can also go to the person. Not fact, of course, that another user on the other resource does not use the same nickname.

Perhaps, in this this article I will conclude. Techniques described are simple and obvious. Rather, they are not open to most of you. Not always, they will work. But, the article in general, and does not purport to be complete, and probably ever will be written by another more complete.

REM: And this ... All that I have described, please use to improve your communication network, and not for other purposes, OK.

RSS-feed, what is and what good are they users


Let's talk about another useful tool for obtaining information on the network. Refers to the RSS-feed news sites and blogs, they are the same feeds. Physically - a product of the ad hoc scripts (programs on the sites) are giving out news articles and special information flow. It can export directly to your computer and view it without having to enter the site.


For the user viewing the site looks as follows. The site webmaster places a link to the RSS, often in the form of images, with images of her point, and two arcs that flow from it diagonally to the left bottom and top right. You can also see a button with the words «RSS» or «XML» and, simply, the link with words such as: «RSS-feed", "Subscribe to RSS», «News headlines" and the like.


You are reading an interesting site, and wishing to continue to monitor the publications on it, have the opportunity with one click to connect to the site updates. This may be two possibilities. The first - is to use the capabilities of your browser, then there are programs for browsing the Internet. Second - the use of special programs, aggregators, RSS readers streams, namely the RCC readers.


In the first case you are using the link or button and, using built-in browser capabilities, he will treat the code tape and asked to confirm the subscription. Reaps on "Subscribe". In the case of the browser "Opera", in the top menu tab will appear on "RSS", where you can view the exported news and articles, even without an Internet connection. Later, during the sessions connecting to the network, the browser itself will communicate with a website that broadcast the tape, and will add the news. On adding Article browser will inform you via a pop-up window. Unsubscribe from receiving tape as easy: click "RSS" - "Management ribbons news" - note extra stream - zhmete "Delete" - more and more messages will be downloaded. All described important for program-browser «Opera», which I use for Internet browsing, and advise you. However, for other modern browsers, this process also works in a similar manner.


In the second case, you use additional software. One of the most popular aggregators, export news, there is a program «Feedreader 3". After installing the program to add the news feeds you will need to copy the link address to the tape and opening the program, press F3, and, further, click "OK". Ribbon added, and it can be read in the tab "All news", look for the name of the tape.


Note: In order to copy the link address, it is necessary to put the cursor, press the right mouse button and left-click "Copy link address" ( "Copy Link Location", "Copy Shortcut" - depends on the program viewer).


The second program, which I can recommend - this is "Mozilla Thunderbird". In fact - this is a mail client with the ability to export RSS. It must create an account type "Blogs and news feeds, which also need to set up an account to add a link to the tape. And, similar to viewing emails, you can view and interesting news from the resources on the Internet and in the same program to configure receive emails from your mail service.


Well all, the theory of matter such as is described. We turn to practical use. To start, connect, how some of the above methods, to the flow of my blog: "Sign on news blog on the RSS". Now you can get all articles with commentaries thereto, without going to my site, although I am glad I will see you there :-). I stress that it is all, not just those that I publish a newsletter. Here one moment: at the moment blog articles in the band Lying in full, that I personally, as an active reader of foreign films, more like.


In the network, very often you see a tape with previews of articles, tapes with comments to posts on blogs or tapes only headlines. In any case - to monitor the contents of an interesting site is convenient, and often saves the traffic. Of course not all good sites, unfortunately, have their own newsletter. But all author blogs have a functional, by default, use.
