Prevention from autorun virus pen drive

Hi!

I am a desktop computer user. I am suffering from the most common and irritating virus autorun. My computer is affected by this virus, through the pen drive. When I plug in any pen drive then it automatically starts and then the autorun virus affects my computer from the pen drive.

Is there any way to get a remedy from this virus?

My Antivirus does it, but I don’t think it can remove this virus properly.

Lotus Notes sending error issue

Hi,

I am having a hard time with my Lotus Notes 8.  I must say, I am just new to this and I want to try this. I am encountering this error,

“You have requested to sign this internet message but your current ID does not contain an internet certificate. Select OK to send the message anyway. Select cancel to not send the message”

And to tell you honestly, I am not sure whether what I did change to see this.

My first question is, how do I make my ID contain an Internet certificate? Read more

Sound blaster audio card Eacontrol.exe

Dear All,

I just recently installed a sound blaster audio card in my Windows XP computer and encountered this error:
 
Eacontrol.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. 
 
I was happy I was able to resolve this problem after making my audio card the default device. But another issue came and I was disappointed when after two weeks of using it, it suddenly started acting up. 
 
Sound or music will just stop playing. I tried it in Winamp, Windows Media Player, and it won’t work either. Once, I reloaded the Winamp and Windows Media Player and...

How does pressing “R” helps my computer without replacing my hard disk?

How does pressing "R" help my computer without replacing my hard disk? I tried to replace the OS of my Intel Celeron computer from Windows XP service pack 2 into Windows Crystal XP 2007. I thought it was successful but it was not .

And now, I cannot return it to the 1st Windows XP so, it always reboots.

It shows an error message NTLDR missing press ctrl+alt+del to restart. I tried reinstalling and repairing the operating system but it says "press 'R'" and then it always goes to the recovery disk.

What's the problem with this?

Could not open windows, NTOSKRNL.exe is corrupted

Upon opening my computer, I could not even reach windows because of an error like this,

Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:

First of all, I am not a geek when in terms of computers, I don't even know what is NTOSKRNL.exe. And I didn't do anything on my machine to make it stop from working.

Lsass Error 1225 (0x4C9) ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED – Unknown error

Hello,

I am getting this error, while trying to integrate my Ubuntu systems to windows domain:

Lsass Error 

1225 (0x4C9) ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED - Unknown error

It's giving me too much headaches on how to get it working. Also, is this really possible? Has been trying to Google it and could not find anything that works. I'm still new to using Ubuntu systems, but I will do whatever it takes to fix this.

I am not really familiar with what I am doing, but this is the job that was assigned to me. I tried deleting lsass-adcache.db, but that didn't eliminate the error.

Any help is so much appreciated. 

Thanks in advance.

Google Chrome page is unavailable

My cousin said that I should use Google Chrome because it's faster than other browsers available today. I uninstalled my Mozilla Firefox and let Google Chrome do its thing. It worked perfectly for a few days, then suddenly the page didn't load when I tried to open it. I keep on getting a message that says there's an error on the page and the page would probably under maintenance.

I don't remember that I touched any of its settings. I'm starting to fall in love with this browser. Now it's giving me a problem. Please give me your suggestions. Thanks
