I can then review the emails, or not, and they won&#39;t clutter the Inbox. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10636#post-96310 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 09:43:23 +0000 BuBBy 96310@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>While some users complain about software that installs &quot;extras&quot; - usually the reason they find themselves in the situation was because they failed to remove the options during install. It goes without saying, that when installing new software on your PC, it is important that you don&#39;t rush, and pay attention to each screen and option that you include during the install.</p> <p>Ashampoo is one company that offers to install a toolbar and make changes to the users web browser. While some users may actually find the toolbar useful - many more would rather keep their PCs config as light as possible. </p> <p>During setup - there is a check box to turn off the Toolbar and to not change browser settings. That is it. A check box. Read the screens when running setup and clear that checkbox. Not a drama - just one click. Yes it can be inconvenient, and may require some practice. </p> <p>Uncheck the toolbar checkbox (2nd highlighted from the top) the other 2 boxes should uncheck automatically.</p> <p><center><img src="http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/3038/toolbarl.png"></center></p> <p>Once you get the software running - Ashampoo programs usually have a &quot;service channel&quot; feature that not only checks for updates, but also lets you know about other offers or software that is available.</p> <p>Some users also don&#39;t like this feature. To turn it off - find the &quot;Service Channel&quot; screen - could be straight off the main menu, or buried in the &quot;Options&quot; or &quot;Settings&quot; menu.</p> <p><center><img src="http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/6959/servicechannel.png"></center></p> <p><center><img src="http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3555/servicechannel2.png"></center></p> <p>In terms of emails (spam). When you register (even for a free giveaway license) - Ashampoo stores ALL of your License keys in a free account <strong>(login using your email address and password - check your registration email)</strong>.</p> <p><strong><u>* HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM ASHAMPOO EMAILS</u></strong></p> <p>Visit <a href="http://ashampoo.com/" rel="nofollow">http://ashampoo.com/</a> and you will see a top menu with &quot;Products/Shop, Downloads, <strong>MyAshampoo</strong>, Support and Company&quot;.</p> <p>Click on &quot;<strong>MyAshampoo</strong>&quot; - and <strong>login</strong> (MyAshampoo Login)</p> <p>Click on <strong>Settings</strong></p> <p>There you will see some more checkboxes where <strong>you can subscribe or unsubscribe from any emails from Ashampoo</strong>. </p> <p><center><img src="http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/7459/ashampooemail.png"></center></p> <p>Finally all of the emails that Ashampoo send out have an unsubscribe link - if you are receiving the emails and don&#39;t want to get them any more - click on the link included at the end of the email.</p> <p><center><img src="http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/8484/unsubscribe.png"></center></p> <p>It is much better (for everyone concerned) if you unsubscribe rather than the &quot;solution&quot; I have heard some users do, when they allow Ashampoo to continue to send the emails, but the user sets up rules in their email client to block the emails (which is just dumb). </p> <p>My own opinion though - I stop the emails - and occasionally login to the Ashampoo site - visit MyAshampoo page and check out the &quot;Service Letters&quot; to read about the current offers every few weeks there really are some great offers now and then. I&#39;d never pay $50 or full price - if I can wait until a promotion comes along, and collect the same program for about $10 it is worth waiting.</p> <p>Perhaps with all these options (even though it only takes 2 minutes to turn them off), I&#39;m sure some users when providing their email address for the first time would appreciate an easier option - a single &quot;do not contact me&quot; checkbox. As the saying goes, &quot;Less is More&quot;. If the software is good, the user knows how to find Ashampoo and will return when they are ready to upgrade or purchase other programs - but users who feel pestered or hassled, will stay away, and &quot;warn&quot; their friends to do the same. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/8522#post-85236 Thu, 11 Nov 2010 00:32:38 +0000 hotdoge3 85236@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/4327230/Vodafone-customers-miss-calls-after-mystery-3G-fault" rel="nofollow">http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/4327230/Vodafone-customers-miss-calls-after-mystery-3G-fault</a></p> <p> A fault with Vodafone&#39;s 3G network is causing customers with iPhones and other internet-enabled smartphones to miss calls and texts.</p> <p>Vodafone acknowledged the problem after complaints from customers, many of whom had initially thought their phones were to blame. </p> <p><a href="http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/4329057/TelstraClear-problems-continue" rel="nofollow">http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/4329057/TelstraClear-problems-continue</a></p> <p> Some TelstraClear customers say they are continuing to experience problems with TelstraClear&#39;s email service despite a claim by the company that it had fully restored services yesterday following a nationwide 23-hour outage that affected its 180,000 Paradise and Clear email accounts.</p> <p>Spokeswoman Diane Robinson believed problems would be confined to customers who followed on-screen instructions to change their password yesterday, and who may now need to have their passwords reset. </p> <p>GONE !!

Een e-mail durft wel eens een stapje in (rond) de wereld te zetten en verschillende keren de wereldbol rondgaan vooraleer bij de bestemmeling aan te komen. Ook kan een mailserver eens tegen een probleempje aan lopen. Als de mail die jij verwacht op dat punt zit, kan die niet verder en zo loopt hij vertraging op.<br /> Nog een reden kan zijn de graylisting van de mailservers. Als een mail op een server aankomt die graylisting gebruikt, stuurt die server een melding naar de verzendende server dat het bericht onvolledig of beschadigd aangekomen is. Als de verzendende server te goeder trouw is stuurt die het bericht opnieuw. Komt dat bericht op de ontvangende server aan, dan wordt dat vergeleken met het originele bericht en in geval ze gelijk zijn wordt het bericht weer verder gestuurd. Dat levert uiteraard ook weer de nodige vertraging op.<br /> Je ziet, er kunnen allerlei oorzaken aan de basis liggen van jouw probleem.</p> <p>Een goede oplossing zou kunnen zijn dat je een RSS feedreader (kan je vinden op <a href="http://mozeskriebel.com/download.php?list.4" rel="nofollow">http://mozeskriebel.com/download.php?list.4</a> ) installeert en de RSS-feed van GAOTD daarin opneemt. Je reader gaat op regelmatige tijden kijken of er nieuwe dingen op de feedpagina staan en brengt jou daarvan op de hoogte. Resultaat: geen gemiste GAOTD meer! :D </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1883#post-19234 Sat, 23 Feb 2008 09:12:37 +0000 Alkmaar 19234@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Ik krijg hem nu ook steeds midden in de nacht en tegen de tijd dat ik wakker ben, is hij al verlopen.<br /> Hopelijk komt daar snel verandering in! </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/282#post-19077 Thu, 21 Feb 2008 23:10:14 +0000 BillW50 19077@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi spiegelj2007!

That was a long time ago, indeed.</p> <p>IMHO, it's misleading if not disingenuous to phrase the cookie debate - are cookies "dangerous" - because the facts make them sound innocuous. The bottom line is, guns don't kill people, people kill people. No wait, that's a different forum. </p> <p>In and of themselves, the vast majority of cookies clearly aren't "dangerous"; it was inevitable they'd be required by more and more sites for portal control and navigation. That said, I don't trust anyone, especially those who deal in data aggregations or ad serving. I realize that ad revenue is the backbone of commerce and the engine behind many sites, but dataminers can do powerful things with aggregated data. People lose more than just privacy when they give up rights. IMHO, the slippery slope began when people allowed dealerships to put corporate decals on new car trunks. :-) Democracies have become increasingly corrupt, intrusive, spendthrift because too many give away rights for false promises and free lunches. Companies are merging into monopolies struggling for control of your purse and of selective information dissemination. Greed and power have a way of interfering with triflings like ethics.</p> <p>Time and again, Yahoo demonstrates a habit of teaming with noxious characters, e.g. Aureate Media. They've allowed advertisers to take control of PC soundcards to blare ads, and they lead the charge to create increasingly distracting obnoxious in-your-face ad banners. Selective advertising based on flawed statistical analysis may mean efficient use of ad dollars to the seller, but it can also manipulate buyers' tastes, attitudes and points of view on many subjects, like social issues and politics. I resist manipulation. I dislike being pigeonholed, although I am pretty powerless to stop it. Not talking about fictional subliminal advertising. Right now, they still rely on brute force... 24/7 eyeball and ear bombardment. However, the psychology used to weave appeal into quack infomercials and spin doctored sound bites is only the tip of the iceberg. </p> <p>I don't trust sites with OPT OUT policies rather than than the more ethical OPT IN. Privacy policies themselves aren't worth the paper they're printed on, since most every one contains weasel words indemnifying the company and even abrogating in advance their responsibility for stored personal data should they be bought out. </p> <p>Remember, too, where there are static cookies, there may be active web beacons that actually phone home. Each time you click OK to a software agreement, you may unknowingly be giving it permission to send more and more info back to the hungry maw of datamining servers. Firewalls, web shields and even a Host file can do only so much to thwart the flow. Know thy computer contents, control thy computer contents. Once it's out there, you can't get it back. </p> <p>Bubby's unofficial cookie FAQ touched briefly on how technologies are gathering and sharing data. That computer in your car may eventually be used against you to void a warranty or jeopardize an accident claim. Your shopping history and medical history might be used against you in some future health insurance dispute. Makes for a very interesting discussion. Sadly, individuals have already lost most their privacy. </p> <p>Alea iacta est </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2345#post-14888 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 06:44:49 +0000 goodgotd 14888@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Uhh, The fist time I saw IE, I couldn't run it- I was on OS/2 2.x at the time.
