Browser Hijacked

11/10/2014

1 Comment

 
Our Surface Pro Laptop's Google Chrome Web Page has been hijacked by an unwanted web page.It does not appear as a program and therefore it cannot be uninstalled. There are numerous sites on the internet to remove said web page, but they all seem to have conditions. None of those I looked at go directly to the problem. Downloading them causes me more problems than I started with. Additional malware wants to slide in with every download, or I am invited to join or purchase something that I do not want. I stopped by the Computer Club on Wed. and was advised to submit this and perhaps I could stop by on Monday 11/10 and someone might be able to help me restore the Google Chrome Web Page. Thank you Andy Betley

Can you suggest software to print pages for a small booklet: about 4.25 x5.5 inches, 10 pages? (A telephone directory) I have Windows 8, Office, Word. Can I do it with Word?

Installation on a Tablet

9/16/2014

1 Comment

 
Does anyone have a tablet and have installed a software package? I have a Samsung Galaxy tablet and received a note that I need to install the software package that was downloaded. As far as I can tell, I never downloaded anything from Samsung. It must have come automatically. Also, there are a lot of warnings to be sure not to stop the installation before it is finished. I could lose some of my data. Also, it is a 744 MB installation. That seem extremely large to me. Also, it mentions that settings could be changed, some things would go back to default and icons might not be there. Any suggestions on how to handle this.

How do I get rid of Arcade Safari from my computers. It appeared uninvited on my older HP Tower about two months back. Just bought a new HP Tower and its still there. I only loaded business info on the new computer.
