![]() I read and understood the previous posts on malwarebytes thanks for that too but – given I just spent $85 on 3 years of Norton protection, possibly unnecessarily (rolls eyes at himself) on amazon’s black friday sales specials I guess I’m stuck with Norton for the time being at least □ … Hi guys brand new to the forums here – thanks so much to everyone who’s posted here, this is the only website I’ve found that addresses whether or not one is really losing Norton if you’re an xfinity subscriber come January 1st 2021 Please use the “Text” tab in the entry box when you copy/pastse Adapts to your home WiFi network and gets smarter over time to keep up with new threatsĮdit to remove HTML.Starts seamlessly without any hardware or software to install-your xFi Gateway is all you need.Protects you from malware, phishing, and visiting malicious sites.Monitors all the devices connected to your home network, unlike Norton which only protects computers and mobile devices. ![]() It helps protect all the devices connected to your home network.

XFi Advanced Security helps keep you protected Norton Security Online will be unavailable soon I expect I will uninstall Norton and activate Defender. It is not clear to me how “xFi Advanced Security” fits into an overall security design. This information was taken from a forum so I can't vouch for its accuracy but in your position if the drive begins clicking take it that its knackered and don't try any of your other disks in it.The message I received from Comcast is below. I decided to junk it and installed a secondary hard disk instead. If I had known this before reading I would obviously have not tried any other disks and to make it worse I wasn't sure which ones I had tried and could not safely have used them in a new zip drive. However that was not the end of the problem as they said that any disk which had been used whilst it was in this clicking mode was now useless and using it in a new zip drive would ruin the drive. They spoke of this as the death click and was the end of the zip drive with it not being economical to repair and being cheaper to renew. It then failed and began a continous clicking noise.Įventually I went to the Iomega web site and looked at the discussion forum on these drives. I had one for a very long time and used it to back up all my files. I realise e-mail is very convenient, but it's causing you so much bother, I thought I'd try and give some alternatives. I'm sure one of the techhy guys could cobble one of these together for you. No attachments and no bother (to everyone, this form is mine, please don't use it to send mail to HJ!). ![]() The point is, people don't then send you emails, only text. The text only is sent to a server, and it then bundles it into an email which is sent to you as usual. This might be a little restrictive for some, but considering you provide your excellent advice gratis, I'm sure anyone needing advice will comply.įinally, have you considered supplying a standard form for people to send you mail from? I've got one here. I'm not an expert in the area, but is there anyway you can ousource your email somewhere that will hopefully trap dodgy attachments before they reach/eat your machine? Perhaps someone in the BR knows of somewhere providing some service like this.Īn alternative would be to never accept e-mails with attachments. I'm really sorry that you're having all this bother with the email - it's happening more & more it would seem, and to everyone. E-mail is a brilliant medium when you make it work for you so avoiding Word attachments/Images is far too restricting, like not going out in case the boys kick your shins. ![]() Lee is helpful in mentioning the idea of restricted mail content but then you've let them beat you. Having said that the program I use just produces a back-up file and you could send it anywhere with the capacity to store it. I have no need of CD-R so the extra expense would be wasted. All our family images and all my writing is safely stored in this way. For example the PC could catch fire or be stolen and you still have the data. To me the fact that it is removeable media gives huge security. OK so the Zip drive might fail one day, but so could any component.like my hard drive that disintegrated after about a year.īut what's the problem, you have the Zip disk on the shelf and you just get a new Zip drive and the disk will run with that. ![]()
