never never never open a pdf in your email or in a browser window, instead always save it to your hard drive and scan it with everything you have before you open it, this is one of the ways they are spreading some of the very bad infections these days. I have a great add-on in my firefox that always pops up and asks me what I want to do with a pdf should I happen to click on one accidentally or go to a site that wants to try to open one automatically. PDF Download :: Add-ons for Firefox Keep running your malwarebytes updated full scan for a few days to make sure you have all the remnants, usually they leave bits behind. As to the conflict with trend and malwarebytes please go here to the malwarebytes forum and read item F in the list.

I found this at the link below, in case you want to try and get pop-ups managed and not have to switch to another browser. I turned on Pop-up Blocker but I still see some pop-ups. Why? The following are some common reasons why you might still be seeing pop-ups: You might have software, such as adware or spyware, on your computer that is opening pop-up windows. To stop these pop-ups, you will have to identify the software that is opening them and then remove it or change its settings to stop it from opening pop-up windows. For information about detecting and removing adware and spyware, see Spyware: frequently asked questions. Some windows with active content are not blocked. Internet Explorer will not block pop-ups from websites that are in the Local intranet zone. If you want the pop-ups from these websites to be blocked, you have to remove the websites from this zone. For more information, see Security zones: adding or removing websites. To remove a website from your list of sites that allow pop-ups Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer. Click the Tools button, click Pop-up Blocker, and then click Pop-up Blocker Settings. In the Address of website to allow box, click the website you want to remove from the list, and then click Remove. Repeat step 3 for every website you want to remove from the list of websites that can display pop-ups. When you are finished, click Close.

dick: No other program for photos is open. Thank you though for the suggestion. The photo icon when clicked immediately goes to my photo library on my computer where I choose which photo to load. Always has done this. The pop-up only happens on Houzz/GW so I would assume the protocol somehow changed. I know it has to do with the application/x-httpd-php in the pop-up message so hopefully an answer will be found before I upgrade to Windows 10.

Hazel, With fungicides, it is hard to know what to do. It seems smart to spray them before the rain occurs as that gives them added protection from fungal spores that might be splashed up onto them during the rainfall, but then if it rains heavily enough, the fungicides may get washed off the plants anyway. I sprayed one plant with Daconil because it had the beginning of some black mold on it a couple of days ago, and then I got paranoid and sprayed the plant beside it and the one across the road from it. I didn't spray the rest. As little rainfall as we received here, I expect the fungicide I sprayed still is on the leaves. If you got more than an inch or two (and, really, the speed with which it fell means more than the amount because I expect a hard, fast rain would wash off more fungicide than a slow, gentle one), the rain probably washed your fungicide off the plants. I don't like spraying anything on the plants, but sometimes it is necessary. I don't think I'll ever be one of those people who sprays fungicide regularly throughout the growing season because I'd rather eat food that wasn't sprayed. I think the most I've ever sprayed fungicide on the tomato plants was 4 times in one year, about once every couple of weeks during the worst of the high heat/humidity part of the tomato season, which at our house occurs in June most years. I am thinking it will be earlier this year. You can add a sticker-spreader product to the fungicide to make it adhere better to the foliage. Some folks just add a couple of drops of soap (not detergent, but actual soap) to their fungicide spray to serve as the sticker-speader. I do not know what the rest of you are looking at in terms of temperatures next week, but at our house we're looking at highs in the upper 80s by mid-week. In combination with wet soil and high humidity, that will give us prime conditions for fungal infections to occur on plants, and likely some bacterial infections as well. Then, there's more severe weather likely at the end of next week. Must be Spring! Rebecca, I find it amazing how much rainfall can vary even over a relatively small area. Often, our three rain gauges vary a lot--a half-inch to an inch, for example, and they are in a relatively small area. A few times we've gotten 9-12" or more in one day while our Mesonet station, clearly missed by the heavy rainfall, showed 2-5" fell at the same time. Sometimes we compare notes with friends who live within a mile or so of our house and often we have a difference of an inch or more from the same storm. Alexis, That's too much rain! We have been sporadically wet, but our last really good wet month here was January, so have been veering towards being too dry in recent weeks and I've had to water the garden a bit. We had good rainfall about a week to ten days ago, and by good, I mean a bit over an inch I think. Clay soil holds moisture forever, so even an inch or two of rain means we stay wet, wet, wet, wet and wet. Then, we have one perfect day when the soil is just wet enough to make pulling weeds easy but not too wet to work, and then the very next day we are dry, dry, dry and the ground is cracking. I have to really watch the soil to ensure I take advantage of the one perfect day. Otherwise, I avoid working wet soil. If you've ever seen the big clods formed by breaking up wet clay, you understand why I behave myself when it comes to working in wet soil. Maybe your neighbors will let you come dig up your amaranth and flowers and transplant them back to your place when they start sprouting? Our rain runoff from our place runs right into our creek, which then empties into a bigger creek up the road, which then empties into the Red River. So, when my seeds wash away, I figure they're gonna end up in the river. I think your forecast low up there in central OK ought to stay around 40-44 because your forecast lows in central OK are often the same as mine, and my forecast low has been fluctuating back and forth between 42-44 for tonight and slightly warmer for Sunday night. I don't think it is fair that our place gets as cold as areas 100-150 miles further north, but that's what we get for living in a low-lying microclimate that tends to run cold late in the year on cool Spring nights. People outside the OKC and Tulsa metro areas may drop colder than those in town by a few degrees since we more rural folks don't benefit from the heat island effect caused by all the warm, heat-retaining concrete found in cities. I do think the further north and further northwest in the state one lives, the more likely that tonight's lows may be worrisome. Once we get past this cool weekend, we are headed into the upper 80s by midweek, so I just hope my plants can tolerate two coolish nights without sulking too much. I believe that we will have strong enough overnight wind down here to keep any patchy frost from settling on the plants so I don't intend to cover up the tomatoes and peppers...or the sweet potatoes, squash , cucumbers, southern peas or corn either. I do reserve the right to freak out around 4 pm this afternoon and run out and cover up plants if they drop our forecast overnight low down to 40 because we have had patchy frost at 38 degrees before. My garden thinks it is mid-May, based on the weather we've been having, and I would like for it to be allowed to go on thinking that. Today is going to be cold and windy, with wind chills making it feel colder than it is, and it is too muddy to work in the yard or garden, so I am planning on doing all the grocery shopping and errand running and such today in the hopes that maybe tomorrow the grass will be dry enough to mow. The good thing about grocery day is that we'll be going to CostCo, which takes me very close to Marshall Grain Company and Mike's Garden Center, so guess where I'll be going while we are out? One nice thing about rain is that when you know you cannot garden, it frees you up to do other things that need to be done, like housework, laundry, grocery shopping, running those errands you've been putting off and, my favorite, garden shopping. One onion bolted yesterday. It is a red onion from the Dixondale Short Day Sampler, so I guess that means it is the Red Creole variety. I wasn't shocked to have it bolt as a lot of the onions I received were way too big this year and I expect bolting from those. Really, I'm more shocked that I haven't yet had a lot of bolting. I still do expect for the bolting to occur, especially among the short and intermediate day length types. My long day types and the storage variety were more the normal planting size so may not bolt.
