@beryllol u probably need to install flash player for your browser. Head over to filehippo.com and search for it (2 types exist - for internet explorer and for non internet explorer) and download the appropriate one. Then install it and hopefully u should be able to play videos from on the net. Cheers.

Please , there is this persistent nasty web address " www.solutioncolony.com/advertweb/router.asp" that comes up on the address bar just before the intended website address e.g if you want to go to yahoo site and you type www.yahoomail.com, the address bar will automatically display "www.solutioncolony.com/advertweb/router.asp?Url=www.yahoo.com" and starts requesting for a username and password .

Please how do I remedy this situation?
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by macomrades(m): 5:45pm On Apr 29, 2010
@seun0622
I think you've got spyware (redirector -- to  be more specific) so get a good anti spyware (dont ask how), scan your machine remove those spies and maybe you'll be fine. Cheers smiley

**peeps viewing this thread** dont click on the links in seun0622's post as you might get infected with the same spyware

Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by wobnet: 12:51pm On Apr 30, 2010
@lasunray, all you have to do firstly is to reformat the windows and if it continues, then u might have to change the keyboard.
thank u
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by macomrades(m): 3:37pm On Apr 30, 2010
@wobnet why tell him to reformat windows when all he should do is replace his keyboard?
@lasunray first, get a new keyboard, if that doesn't work we'll then consider something else. You can also try out a usb keyboard after disconnecting ur current one to see if u still have issues. Cheers.

my hp compact c571n is having a little problem on its touchpad. sometimes it doesn't move good. i mean, it drags. what can i do to fix this?
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by wobnet: 10:21pm On Apr 30, 2010
@macromades, dont u kno there're times virus deals wit ur keyboard and its start mal functioning?, I have experienced such before, Its was a virus that took over my mouse and keyboard.
Thats why i told him to format first.

@lasunray. what if u buy another key board and the problem continues, Thats why i gave u the option to fomat first.

Thank u
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by wobnet: 10:32pm On Apr 30, 2010
@callygood, pls how long have u started having these problem?
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by macomrades(m): 7:14am On May 01, 2010
@wobnet
formatting the harddrive is always the last resort, you should have advised him on how to detect and flush malware first instead of telling him to format besides in my last post, i told him to try a usb keyboard with his primary keyboard disconnected before he buys a keyboard. I think you will do better by adopting a differential diagnosis approach instead of this one size fit all approach of formatting, did you consider the possibility of the problem not going away after he has formatted his harddrive? He probably would lose custom settings, programs and maybe even documents, did you think about the licensing terms and conditions of all his installed software, or dont you believe in paying for software? Honestly, not to belittle you but your previous post was shallow and not in line with best practices. Cheers
@lasunray
get a usb keyboard plug to your machine after disconnecting the 'bad' one, if you still have the same problem your 'bad' keyboard is actually fine then we begin to think along the line of malware and how to get rid of them. Cheers.
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by Mobinga: 4:09pm On May 01, 2010

@lasunray, pls go ahead with what macromades said and lets see, but if it doesnt work then maybe you will have to go by my own option

@maromades: you really might me right but, i was just concidering him buyin a keyboard and if the problem continues. whats he going to do about the keyboard he already bought

thank you
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by wobnet: 5:04pm On May 01, 2010

@mobinga
it's either you are running other memory intensive applications at the same time esp if your machine 'belong to' the low end segment or the disc you are copying has bad sectors (the disc is bad). Cheers.
Re: Tell Me About Your Computer Problems And I'll Advice You: by macomrades(m): 11:31pm On May 02, 2010
@nedu2000
it seems your network card driver is gone (dont ask). To check open control panel, then open administrative tools and double-click device manager. Look thru the entries and look for ethernet or network orsimilar (it varies), if there's a yellow '?' beside the entry, you need to install the driver, you can get it from the driver cd that came with your machine or better still get the latest one from support and downloads section of hp.com but if you see a red 'x', it means that the device is disabled, so right click the entry and select enable. Cheers.

@kay-baba
you need to explain better, maybe enumerate the issues you have in a more logical way e.g tell us your machine model, OS, browser etc. then mention whether or not it has had any physical damage, etc. I don't see the connection between your windows media player not running and your network connection. Be clear when explaining your problems. Cheers.
