Solving Your Problems

[WalterB]

We all have problems here sometimes, usually with cam shows, it seems. The internet is a vastly populated entity, with so many different machines, software packages, computers, servers, browsers, on and on and on. And it all needs maintaining. Hopefully I can offer you a few basic things to look at. Certainly no guarantee that I can solve your problems. But, if you will check these things, they may help.

First, do you leave your computer on all night? Some will suggest that you do that, or at the least will tell you, "it doesn't hurt." Well, it won't "break" your computer, but it very well might gum it up over time. Over time you do a lot of internet surfing. Tons of things get downloaded to your computer - temporary files, programs you use, then delete, left over software that never got deleted, tons of stuff. You should really have a quality maintenance program on your computer, in addition to your security software. And at the MOST you should do a thorough work over on a monthly basis. Set one day (the 1st?) to do a thorough, deep scan. For that and for your security software, be sure automatic updates are turned on.

Turn your computer off every night. Rebooting it allows it to clear out your memory of left over odds and ends. It's just a good idea, and allows you to start the day with a "clean slate."

If you notice problems during cam shows, it might not be a bad idea to reload your Flash. That often helps clear up problems. These steps may seem long and unnecessary, but, believe me, they are the safest and most thorough method to use.

1. Navigate to your add/remove programs location. Locate and remove Adobe Flash and Shockwave Player.
2. Reboot your computer. This will clear out your computer and remove any left over aspects of your original installation.
3. Once it restarts, open your browser, navigate to the Adobe website, download the latest versions of Flash and Shockwave Player.
4. Once done, reboot your computer again. This will ensure that everything gets loaded and installed as it should be.

Now go to where you were having problems before and see how things are working.

Another step is to reboot your modem. I was recently having problems that seemed to be internet related. I finally contacted my ISP. They told me to reboot my modem. They said I hadn't rebooted it since it was installed (I hadn't.) The agent said that I should reboot my modem weekly. I don't know if that is really necessary, but I certainly intend to do it not more than monthly. And, yes, after that reboot, my problems disappeared.

If you look at a page, say a schedule or something, try refreshing the page. Many times you may be looking at an old copy. Simpy reloading the page will solve that problem.

These damn things need maintenance, just like anything else. If you'll do these few simple things, you will find your experiences much more enjoyable. Do you work for an entity that has their own servers? Ask the IT person. He will tell you that, yes, they periodically take them off line and "clean" them. Everyone has to do it. It's just like washing your dishes or sweeping out your house. It needs to be done.

Take care of your computer and it will take care of you.

Just a general questions: If you are downloading videos from free porn sites to your account on a free porn site and you watch the videos on your phone, can viruses be going into your phone? Plus you are downloading the videos using your phone. Someone is doing this and I want to know also if someone does Skype with them, is there a change your device could end up with viruses from their device?

Really hope someone can answer this.

I'm not really sure. I would think that, if you were going to questionable sites and downloading infected files, they could get into your phone. But, on the other hand, your phone is a different operating system than your computer, so It may be a whole new ball game.

I did some looking around. The general consensus seems to be that simply watching videos, your chances of catching a virus are slim. Your chances are higher if you download an infected app. but those chances look slim, too. Apps are tested by the stores that sell them, so chances are slim that a virus could get thru. Follow this link and look over some of the articles.

One thing one article mentioned is Bluetooth. It said that, if Bluetooth Discovery is on (your phone is Discoverable by other Bluetooth devices,) and you walk by an infected Bluetooth device, that you could get a virus from the infected Bluetooth device. The answer here seems to be to turn off discovery unless you are actually using it.

But, about Skype, I would say No. If you are Skyping with someone who has an infected phone, no. Their infection cannot be spread through Skype.

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S7 a few weeks ago, I can't get on Vicky's site no mater what I try. Does anyone have any idea why or what I might be doing wrong?

[WalterB]

I don't know anything about the Samsung, Julie, but I would guess there may be a setting somewhere. About all I can suggest is to find your settings and go thru them. Anyone have any ideas?

[hotjulie]

Tried to put up a new avatar, but no idea how to change the size, so now I don't have one. This is frustrating

[WalterB]

Julie, do you have Paint? The latest Win10 version has a resize function - fast and easy.

Other than that I'm guessing any reasonable picture processing software has a resize function. Make a copy of your picture and resize that so that you still have the master in case of a mistake. I copy mine and rename them with an "a" at the end so they show up in my folder together. Walt23.jpg and Walt23a.jpg. The "a" can stand for "altered," if you like.

If you don't have the capability just email me the picture and I'll do it for you.

[hotjulie]

Thank you Walt, it only took me two days to figure that out, I'm so smrt!

[WalterB]

Yes, you are. We all have to learn something the first time we do it. Well, having sex kind of comes naturally. I didn't need daddy there to show me,

Hello, Walt!

I can't log in on VNA videos to comment.
Is this a problem on my end or is this a network problem?

[WalterB]

Thanks for the alert, Zach. Which VNA Videos do you mean? Archives? I logged into Archives 2 just fine, but could not get into Archives 1. Can't seem to get into either one from my phone. Will ask Vicky to check.

UPDATE: Archives 1 aren't supposed to work on your phone.

[WalterB]

If Archive 1 was your problem, Zach, try it now. Works for me, now.

UPDATE: Archives 1 only work on your computer, Archives 2 work on your computer and your phone. Vicky has only said this about 100 times. Some people (Walt!) are slow learners.

[ZachTank]

I mean on the download video screen. Like Maggie Green Live or Vicky at Home.
VNA site videos.

I can't comment on the videos that are downloadable.

Everyone is commenting as Guest and putting their username on the comment or it works for them.

I can't even do that. It's not letting me log on or Be a guest.

[WalterB]

I got ya, Zach. It doesn't work for me either.

Vicky, when looking at a models videos and trying to comment, when I try to log in as a member, clicking "Login" does nothing. Same if I enter a comment as a guest. I can enter the comment. But when I click "Post," nothing happens. I tried several sites and they're all the same.

The video itself plays fine. Happy Birthday,

[stickyvicky]

Oops! Will get that fixed!

[ZachTank]

Thanks, Vicky! You're the best!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

[stickyvicky]

I think it is fixed now, can you verify?

[WalterB]

Yes, it is. I checked it earlier. I thought that's what Zach was saying, but he didn't specifically say "it's fixed."

And, me, too. Thank you.

[ZachTank]

It works!!!

Thanks Vicky and Walt!!!
