  • Remove 'Mask me' program completly?

    "Mask me" was removed from Firefox add-ons and its plug in, when it began to mask other sites login. It was only supposed to mask my email address, if I wanted it to. -I had the choice of sending it mask or not-. I thought I had removed it completely, until my ISP wanted to send a temporary password to a mask email, and on their website it showed a email masked, not my email address.

    Its a program so it does not show up on my control panel. I ran windows defender & adware and it did not pick it up as malware or any problem.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  • Why does my microwave makes one pop sound when it starts?

    It is a Danby 1.1 model# dmw111kbldb.

    I just got it and when I heated Coffee it made one pop when it started, and when cooking burrito's it did it again. After the pop it runs quietly and cooks/heats the food well.

    I have never had one that pops, is it because its new?

  • My Dell settings changable?

    I bought a refurbished Dell windows 7 professional everything works fine except my location. I manually changed locations of stores to the one closest to me- it would say the closest to you is Baldwin- which is way south. However, when I turned the computer back on and went to the site it would still say my closest store is Baldwin. Not only did it do this with stores but if I was looking at jobs the career center closest to me will be listed as Jefferson city. In fact I receive jobs in the area of Jefferson city. I am beginning to get notices from south county, my nearest center.

    I live in North County. My ISP list my weather in Baldwin the area that is detected by my computer. I contacted them and they can not change my default.

    I have tried ipconfig. unplugging the computer and letting reset, but no change.

    I still have my other computer- I am at a lost. The only thing I can come up with is the person who owned this lived in South county with a different IP address, but I can not change it.

    Does anyone no a way that it will register the correct information?

    Thanks

  • Can I divert my email to a different server?

    I do not like Yahoo's server, which automatically came when I signed up with my ISP, and my email address. I have exported my mail to a different server, but that leave me with 2 mailboxes. I would like to keep my email address, but skip yahoo's mailbox completely, just receiving mail in the server I like. How can I do this?

  • Where can I down load a driver?

    A Windows 98 crashed and the tech upgraded the computer to Windows 2000.

    Now the scanner/computer/ and printer (apollo 2200) are not compatible. If I scan a document it only prints vague, light grey. I have changed the cartridge, but that does not make a difference in the print. I have looked for a driver with no avail, if any one knows where I can download a driver for Windows 2000 so I can scan and print again...

    Thank You

  • Which do I download a driver?

    A computer crashed, it was Windows XP and the repair person replaced it with 2000. Both a scanner and printer are attached to the computer (separate machines). Now whatever is scanned into the computer will only print a very vague shadow, even with fresh ink. It has been determined that the computer/scanner/printer needs a new driver to make it compatible, so it will scan and print correctly. Which item do I need a new driver, if not from all and what is the best place to look?

    I will have to download the drivers from my computer, for this computer is no longer connected to the Internet

    Thanks.

  • what could it be- soft squeal ?

    I have a 2005, Pontiac grand Am. Approx 38000 miles.

    I could hear a rubbing noise when I turned my wheel in the garage. I guess the tires were rubbing against a dry floor. Recently I can hear a soft whine when I turn the wheel. After MO had a pretty good snow storm, it became louder.I am guessing because something in the steering got wet, like your breaks squeal when they get wet. Several months ago I noticed the S. Fluid a little low a added some , but I just checked it and it was fine. Any ideas?

    I am pretty good under the hood, but I do not have a schematic.

  • What if you cite someone else?

    I know it is against the Community Guidelines to use another person's answer. However, I have come across questions where I did not know the answer, could not locate it by research, but found it in the archives of Yahoo. I have always given credit to Yahoo and the person, if identified , no-matter if I only use the knowledge to understand/help me give a better answer. So, am I still breaking Community Guidelines if I cite them and give them credit?

  • Exporting email into one source?

    My ISP is ATT and I also have Firefox, so I have email with ATT. When I downloaded Firefox, I exported all my mail from ATT to Gmail,(sometimes it all exports) but I still have to delete email, spam in both ATT and Gmail. Shouldn't the mail be going through ATT and I receiving it in Gmail, instead of me receiving it in 2 places?

  • What is this on my cats face? Serious answers.?

    On the R. side (when looking at him) where there are no whiskers, he has a pale red round like scab. It is in his face, even with the fur. It does not seem to hurt him, for he will let me look at it and touch it. I think he has had it about a week. This is the possibilities I have come up with:1. He got into a fight with one of my other 2 cats and they pulled out a whisker,so its healing 2. Infected hair 3. Some sort of pimple/sore in the pore drying up.( not feline acne). I have raised many cats but have never seen this before. Should I just leave it alone, as I have been doing? His behavior, eating habits etc. have not changed and are any of my possibilities plausible?

    Thanks

  • How do I make sure a pipe is connected.?

    I replace the pipes in my bathroom when they corroded, I use PCV pipe and standard connectors. There were no leaks everything worked fine, until now. The drain was slow, so I took apart the section form the main drain and found mold.

    I thought I cleaned it all, until I checked the pipe I ran into the wall there I found mold. I can replace teh pipe, but how do I know it is a solid connection since it is behind the tile.
