Hi, I am having problems trying to view my images & voting on pixoto.com .. i am using firefox & internet explorer, but both are not letting me view anything? i contacted pixoto.com, they think it is a computer problem??, i cleared the cache and did a virus scan, but the problem remains, it was all ok a few days ago, i did a system restore, but still the same??, i also did a disk clean up..what do you think could be wrong here?? thanks..rip

Try Chrome ? Can't hurt and if still won't load pictures then check for all your updates.

Hi Phillip,
Which version of ie are you using ?
Press the F12 key using ie?
Click on Browser mode in ie10 or if using ie11 on the left column of icons scroll down to Emulation,
Then switch the User agent sting in ie11 "Browser Mode in ie10 and later" to a lower version,
The page should refresh after doing the above,
Then test,
Cheers.

Post a link to the main site so there's no confusion possibly it will cause a popup message or something,
Have you used this before ?
Temp files delete,
Run this as administrator and Start the scanner,
Shut your machine down after it finishes,

If so see what this finds,

hi, i have not tried old timer??, how do i post a link to the site?..is old timer safe to use?, i am using windows 7 32 bit

 

[ThrashZone]

Very safe,
Use it often
I went to the site but I doubt I would be any good because I don't have an account to comment/ vote ?
I didn't have any issues actually just viewing files though,
ie10 at the moment,
Cheers.

i have no issues on my wifes pc either, just on my laptop here?? maybe i should delete whats in the temp folder? is there a way to do this without installing old timer?

 

[ThrashZone]

Oldtimer is the easiest it also deletes any Java crap build up,
It also does All browsers in seconds,

You can forward this link to the sites personnel your corresponding with,
[Invalid] Markup Validation of http://www.pixoto.com/images-photography/landscapes/all/leading/in-week-20-2014 - W3C Markup Validator

Otherwise if you want to do this manually
Reset Firefox,
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
http://www.microtuts.com/how-to-clear-history-cookies-cache-in-chrome/
Delete browser history,
http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/162582-internet-explorer-9-delete-browsing-history.html
In ie11 open it,
Use Alt+TD or Gear symbol/ Safety/ Delete browser history,
Uncheck the Top box and Check All others/ Delete,
Close ie and re-open.
Cheers.

hi thrashzone, thanks for your help, i forwarded the message to the pixoto person. i already reset firefox but that did not help either, should i try old timer then as a last resort? thank you

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
I would use it in the first resort

Did you run Adwcleaner ?
It's very good too,
Screen shot of the download button to use for Adwcleaner

You could also use Clean boot,
http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/179159-troubleshoot-application-conflicts-performing-clean-startup.html
Click Start and type in the search box,
msconfig
Click on the suggestion on top or hit the Enter key,
Go to the Startup section and take some screen shots for a complete list,
Go to the Services section and on the bottom left Check the box to Hide All Microsoft services,
Repeat the screen shots,
See the links above my signature on how to take and upload screen shots here,
Cheers.

will old timer remove my bookmarks in firefox or ie? thanks so much for your time.

 

[ThrashZone]

I've never heard of anything like that being remove brother,
I use it every night,
Although I don't have Firefox or Chrome installed = only ie10,
So it never screwed any of my favorites up,
Oldtimer will not delete cookies so you will need to clear them yourself,
Cheers.

 

[Riptorn]

ok i will give it a go, i will let you know what happens ok ..cheers

 

[ThrashZone]

Yes please try all of the noted suggestions,
If all fail post the results of Adwcleaner,
Then startup and services screen shots,
Cheers.

 

[Riptorn]

[ThrashZone]

Well first thing I see is Conduit
Let me request a security expert take a look,
None seem good to me but just leave as is for now,
Cheers.

Have you used Malwarebytes before ?
