Outlook: Cursor moves unexpectedly while typing emails and the text is suddenly going in another ar
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 249 views
When typing an email message, my cursor suddenly moves to a new location on its own, sometimes even into the subject line, and my text is entered there. I am a touch typist, and find this happening. I am certain I have not taken my fingers off the A to Z keys. It is a software glitch. Does anyone have a solution? View the thread

I have run MSE three times. Each time it has found TrojanDropper:Win32/Dunik!rts. When taking the recommended action the progress bar gets 3/4 finished and then reports an error code of 0x800700df. It says the file size exceeds the limit allowed and cannot be saved. MSE then says that my PC is protected although if you run another full scan it continues to find it. How can I remove this from my PC? I think it's responsible for hacking my e-mail account yesterday. View this thread

is it possible for me to find the error message list containing ALL the numbers. Also why is everyday I see yet another problem concerning windows 7. I have Win/7 with x64 on toshiba satellite c655D-s5200. I do have to admit that since I started running the MSE Pre-release I haven't had many issues with the exception that I have to reload most of the pages I wish to see. View the thread

Excel 2010 very slow
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 211 views
I am having trouble with opening, closing and saving Excel files. I have tried the changes in the Registry editor that were mentioned in another post and that did not seem to help. I also deleted the files in my Temp folder as suggested in another post. The weird thing is that it is not slow all the time. The files I am trying to access are on the other computer in the office so it guess its "networked"?? I am not really sure. But like I said...sometimes I have no problem with the speed and they open, close and save at a normal speed, but most of the time it is very slow. View this thread

Hi I have a client with an issue that I can see other related, but not exact, issues. He has installed Office Standard 2007 (retail box with key) and Outlook 2010 (retail box with product key). He has since downloaded an 'update' and since then all his Office Application (Word, Excel, PPT) are orange and 'open source' by the look. Also, when he goes to open Excel, Word or PPT he gets a pop up with Microsoft screen asking for valid product code etc., etc,. Now - he doesn't want the upgrade - he did it all by mistake - and is happy with Office Standard 2007... however I can't find how to uninstall the Office 'upgrade' update. I can see in Programs there i…
