Stick around and change the world
Goku replied to BeeCeeBee's topic in Tech Support & Discussions Forum
Thank you very much for those kind words Barry; it really boosts our confidence. As Dalo has already said, we might not always be here, so its users we rely on to share the responsibility because as our signatures say, no one knows the answer to everything and you might have the solution to a problem that even stumps the "experts". Thanks again for those wonderful words! :) -- Goku -
Hello and Welcome to FPCH Sang. :) Hope you enjoy your stay here. -- Goku

OK Adiac, though you were not heavily infected, the fact remains that you had some infections that could prove disastrous for you. From the log, I gather that the infections were packed within the cracks you downloaded for the Gamehouse games. I implore you to discontinue with this or you will repeatedly end up infecting your computer. Coming back to your problem, it could be caused due to a keyboard shortcut. That was exactly my first reaction when I read your problem but since you said that there was no definite key that opened up Yahoo! Mail, I ruled out that possibility. I think it is time to give it another thought. Do you have any programs to create keyboard shortcuts such as AutoHotKey or something similar? -- Goku

Thank you very much for the alert Syoza. I am sure that information will come in useful some time. :) -- Goku -
Barry don't let it bother you. Custom titles are useless and irrelevant as they do not show how valuable a member is. The title you get depends on your post count. To achieve the Senior Member title, you need to have more than 100 posts but less than 200 posts. If you cross the 200 mark, you will be identified as a Distinguished Member. If you stick with the site for long, the Administrators have the power to give you a custom title such as Devoted FPCH Member or Long Term FPCH Helper. Again, it is all irrelevant as it is the quality of your posts and not quantity that judges your worth. :) And you would better get your pet out of that picture or Wolfey will tear her to bits. :D -- Goku

Hello and Welcome to FPCH Fraser. :) Are you running any firewall, especially Zone Alarm? It is known to cause such problems. Also, did you make any recent software / hardware changes before you first encountered the problem? -- Goku

Glad you got it resolved. Feel free to ask any more doubts or queries you may have. :) -- Goku -
OK, this problem is very weird. Yahoo! Mail should not, under any circumstances, be opened automatically. The answers you give allow me to reach only the conclusion that your computer is still infected. Please perform the whole Malware removal procedure and in addition to that, download and install Avira AntiVir from here. Update AntiVir with the latest virus definitions and run a full scan. The scan may take some time to complete so allow it to do so. After the scan is complete, click on the Report button and post back its contents here. Note: Avira might conflict with your current Antivirus software if you have one installed. In that case, please disable the Antivirus or uninstall it altogether to stop it from interrupting Avira's scan. That should hopefully fix the problem if it is being caused by an infection. -- Goku

OK, I have a lot of questions, so please answer them patiently. They will help me eliminate various possibilities that might be causing the problem. 1. What browser are you using? 2. Does it happen only when you are connected? 3. What happens if you do not press any key at all? 4. When Yahoo! Mail opens, are you signed in? 5. Does the page look like a genuine Yahoo! link or does it look like a hoax? 6. What happens if you keep one instance of the Yahoo! window or tab open and continue with your work? Answer them as soon as possible. :) -- Goku

I agree there Barry. A pound seems a reasonable price for a host of free softwares that we usually recommend to facilitate your daily computing use. The best part is that you can retain the softwares for future use or to share them with your friends and relatives to give them a smoother PC experience. Besides, for 1 pound, every 3 months or 6 months, you get the latest version of the softwares available. :) -- Goku

OK Aidac, let us start by uninstalling Yahoo! Messenger or any other toolbar you might have. Remove everything related to Yahoo! and reboot the computer. Does the problem still persist? -- Goku

OK, so now we take a different trail of thought from here. Did you make any recent software or hardware changes before you first encountered the problem? Also, please run your computer through our standard Malware removal procedure and post back its results. Let us know how it goes though. Good Luck. :) -- Goku -
Dalo, I think it was just a typographical error. Alp must have been remarking about how the old drive which was only 6 months old, as I understand it, became faulty so soon. -- Goku

Hello and Welcome to FPCH Rebecca. :) Laptops are very tricky to disassemble and repair and I would advise even the most advanced PC users against it. Your best bet, in my opinion, is to give the laptop to a repair shop that guarantees the work at a reasonable cost. I found a site that guarantees to do it all. Sony Vaio VGN-FS315E VGN-FS315H VGN-FS315M VGN-FS315MR Laptop Repair Here is what they claim about repairing keyboards. Their service might be expensive, especially if you are outside UK but it will at least save you from buying an entirely new laptop. Hope that helps. :) -- Goku
