[Google bookmarks and gmail notifier mulfunction]

Google wrote this on notifier's homepage:

 

 

Please note that the Gmail Notifier isn't compatible with the Google Toolbar.

 

Source: http://toolbar.google.com/gmail-helper/notifier_windows.html

 

I'm also waiting for Google to fix this issue. I really is irritating...

The anounannouncement you linked does not refer to the mail notifier included in the google toolbar.

[Returnil or Sandboxie ?]

That's surprising since the install file is less than a Meg in size. Thanks for the info though.

 

I've never used an app like Sandboxie, so I'm reading more about it and trying to decide if it's worth while. Another layer of protection is always a good thing, but if it's a RAM hog and just slows the computer down, it's probably not worth it to me.

 

See the attached Sandboxie`s thumbnails these are self explanatory.

in

IE6 its click "File" click "Work Offline" in

IE7 & IE8 its "Tools" then "Work Offline"

in Firefox "File" then "Work Offline"

 

make sure there is no tick next to them.

Thanks ,so this is ruled out as well so I`m still where I was before.....

[Google bookmarks and gmail notifier mulfunction]

Looks like there are one or two others with this issue when you google.

 

What things have you tried? I've seen various thing like checking IE was not ticked in 'file' as working in offline mode (yes I know they were use FF but somehow it still fixed it for them!!)

 

Reinstall notifier?

 

Allow popups as an exception in your browser?

 

Thanks for your reply Hazel, I uninstalled and reinstalled g.toolbar 3 times with no effect in these issues,

allowing popups did not do the trick, can you please advice how to proceed with IE configuration regarding offline mode?

 

Thanks

[Google bookmarks and gmail notifier mulfunction]

Hi

 

I have the google toolbar (latest) and when I want to bookmark any site I get the attached message.

Gmail notifier does not work properly,it works only to link me with mt Gmail account but does not notify.

Google support did not even find it appropriate to acknowledge the posted issue......

Any help will be welcomed.

Thanks

[Microsoft Silverlight up date version 3.0.40818.0]

I don't have it Eli but you apparently uninstall the previous version:

 

 

 

Taken from Item 1 here: (If you can access it)

 

 

Thank you Dennis , your link makes it quite clear.(BTW, access issue solved)

[Java jre 6 version 15]

You can get it from FileHippo:

http://www.filehippo.com/download_java_runtime/

 

Thank you Andavari , it is done .I guess something is not quite right with the java download site...or maybe my machine is just being reluctant to download from there.....

[Java jre 6 version 15]

Hi

If I go to Java site to verify my version I get this:

 

Verifying Java Version

Oops! You don't have the recommended Java installed.

Your Java version is Version 6 Update 15

 

So I deleted 6-version 15 and tried to download 6-version 16 with no success, so I went back to 6-version 15.

Being on version 15 if I try to update it pops up a message that I have the latest version......

I haven`t got a clue what is going on here , did any of you encountered the same mistery?

[Firefox 3.5.2]

Thanks to you all for your responses.

[Firefox 3.5.2]

Hi

 

I`m using FF 3.0.13 and I have heard some bad experiences about version 3.5.2 .

Question: Is it any better than the version I`m using, or should I stay with what I have?

 

Thanks

[advanced cleaner]

No. That option is useless unless you tick "Wipe Free Space".

 

Thanks.

[advanced cleaner]

Ishi, if you have to use it, and I agree with both comments above, then make sure you go to "CCleaner\Options\Settings", and check only one drive at a time.

 

 

I`m missing something here. Although for instance I have not ticked wipe free space drives in the advanced options, am I still going to get the C drive wiped if in the settings tab the wipe free space drive option is ticked(by default)?

[reformat, recover]

whats a good program to use to recover data you lost by reformatting? im sure there is something out there, i remember coming across a program that would even revive a deleted partition

I have a work around way with no recovering programs although a bit complicated:

1.I reinstall windows without reformatting or deleting any part of ex windows.(side by side)

2.Using the new installed windows,I copy all the files I want from ex windows to for example: D partition.

3.Format the partition where Windows (the two of them) are installed and reinstall Windows again.

 

I know it sounds insane ,I personally did it and saved EVERYTHING I wanted, and in my case Windows was completely disabled .The first installation saved the files and with the second installation(after reformatting) I put back all the files where they originally were......

[avast! 4.8]

Yes I've just starting to use Avast again and thats something I miss repairing a file rather that deleting it. If it can't be repaired them fair enough. I had a Malware in one and it deleted it. I've had this file your years. I have a backup file.

 

Another thing I hate is after it does a full scan you don't get a report it just closes.

It does have a report if you configure it :

Go to settings>Report file>Mark =create report file and choose what ever you want in the log record.

 

It also has a sort of file repairing system called VRDB:

Help file >Healing> the second one is VRDB it is self explanatory....that is if you care to read it of course....

[avast! 4.8]

Although it is not quite relevant to the initial post, I feel that the following has some importance when relating to the providers:

I have the web provider (set :normal) jumping daily from 14MB to 69MB !!!! with no abnormal usage and no questionable sites surfing.

I`ve posted in their forum and no rational response delivered by the team , and yes I know it is a free product but never the less, you should now that if you are low on resources, it could be an issue.

I personally solved it by deactivating and activating the web shield again.

[Auto Shutdown program]

Agreed, wasn't saying one was better than the other, just offering a (relatively unknown) alternative that was relevant to the topic

I finally ended up choosing yours as it is suits me much more, thanks.

[Auto Shutdown program]

I use DShutdown, offers options for just about anything shutdown related:

IMHO the two programs are for different type of users, the one that does not want to get confused with to many options (the program I linked), and your linked program, which is very useful for users who now exactly what they want and do not get confused by the many options.

[Auto Shutdown program]

Auto Shutdown helps you to schedule Windows shut down and define global keyboard shortcuts for different shut down actions (turn off, restart, log off, stand by & hibernate).

I`ve found this little free program quite useful:

[Microsoft.net framework]

Well, when you install MS .Net Framework 3.5, it also installs 2.0 and 3.0, so I suggest you leave them there.

It would be a big pain in the tail to have to install them again.

Thanks for your reply.

[Microsoft.net framework]

Its already been discussed Here

 

hope this helps

Thanks but your link does not answer my question.
