Beware of Microsoft Phone Scam
Beware of Microsoft phone scam
Hi my friends be careful who you give remote access to your computer. Even if they say they are calling from Microsoft, first Microsoft will never call, even one’s computer is very badly infected. Once you purchase a computer it is your responsibility to protect it from viruses, malware, hackers and so called Microsoft tech s(they are not from Microsoft) they are from MICROTOSH SOFTWARES sound like Microsoft and MICROTOSH computer support number is 855-601-0002, block this number. Beware of Microsoft phone scam.
One of my yearly clients gave them access to her computer. They locked her out of her own computer, charged her $499 and asked for more before she hung up and called me in a short time, they had already had modified her registry file. So she couldn’t do anything but call their number and let them control her pc.
I went to fix her computer and she did not pay a dime to me nor the hackers. I helped her cancel her credit card and did whatever it took to dispute her amount.
She bought a LPC (Lexington PC Clinic) yearly plan and LPC (Lexington PC Clinic) fixed everything. Her computer is now running like it was before. Beware of Microsoft phone scam.
Don’t get scammed. Call us.
I did some research here is the result:

How to update Drivers on your Windows Computer..
There is No Shortcut to Safeway to update Drivers on your Windows Computer..
How to update Drivers on your Windows Computer? Looking for drivers to update your computer hardware? Avoid using any kind of Driver-Update softwares and I would recommend that avoid download any driver update or finder software from freeware-download sites. There are many driver update software’s advertisements are on the net, just beware of what you downloading. Those are the software will cause you some problem in long run.
The best way to update your hardware driver to go to device manufacture website to download drivers because they keep updating their driver version. HP, Dell, NVIDIA, AMD’s Catalyst Control Center, Realtek, or whichever is in your computer. These all have auto scan hardware in their website. They will find right version for your hardware. Usually graphic card often appears in your system tray.
Or let windows update to do the work. Windows has its own inbuilt update driver software. Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 will update your driver through windows update but now with new Operating System, Windows 10 Microsoft being more progressive and forceful, so Windows 10, Windows update will automatically download and install the latest driver. Even if you add any hardware it will overwrite and install latest driver for you.
So stick with windows update or manufacture website.

How to fix Temporary profile in windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10
Restart your computer.
Once you see boot screen, start taping on F8 on your keyboard. You will see this screen:
Now use down arrow on keyboard to select Safe Mode
And hit Enter
For Windows 8, 8.1 or 10 go to settings startup and safe mode
It will log you in safe mode with administrator account credential.
Now save all your data before you fix temp user profile error. I suggest you save your data.
Now, the location of User ProfileList is here:
HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NT CurrentVersionProfileList
Make a registry backup- It is very much recommended-Right click on profile list and click on export-choose the location to save this file.
Now find the corrupt profile, rename it with .bak extension. If you don’t know how to make .bak extension follow these step first:
Navigate to HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionProfileList
There should be a multitude of Registry keys inside the ProfileList, Look for two identical ones which are differentiated by the .bak extension (e.g. S-1-5-21-XXXXXX1234.bak & S-1-5-21-XXXXXX1234).
The Registry key with the .bak extension contains the user’s actual profile while the one without the .bak contains the Temp profile.
Delete the Registry Key WITHOUT the .bak extension and rename the one with it to S-1-5-21-XXXXXX1234 (without the .bak). Notice the fields on the right, there should be a value named RefCount, change the value to 0.
Reboot the machine.
And this will fix your temp user profile problem.
Mac is not immune to malware
Mac is not immune to malware
Protect your Mac from Malware
Protect your Mac from Malware. Mac is not immune to malware or virus anymore. People have a common belief that Macs are safer than PCs. It is a common belief that all the viruses are designed to infect Windows computers, not Mac. There are many websites where one can find detailed information about windows malware, but one has to do a lot of research to find out information about Malware for Macs. Here is the list of Trojan malware since the 1990s.
This article not to make you panic or frightened this is just to make you aware of the common belief that Macs are immune to Malware. Today, I was reading an article on Macworld, and I end up landing an exciting page about Malware on Macs “List of Mac viruses, malware, and security flaws” to support my article. Protect your Mac from Malware.
There is no computer system is immune to malware (Malicious Software), even Mac / Apple Systems.
MacDefender and Flashback are the most vulnerable.
Flashback: Flashback virus target security hole in Java. Java is included in OS X (OS X is Operating System such as Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite). Flashback virus is designed to steal your data or information in the background without even the user noticing. Once your computer is infected you might not see any difference the way your Mac runs.
MacDefender: Also known as Mac Protector, Mac Security, Mac Guard, Mac Shield, and FakeMacDef is Internet rogue security software that will mislead the user into paying money for fake or simulated removal of malware a form of ransomware claim to remove malware from the computer, instead of removing it introduce malware to the computer.
Recently one of our mac was acting funny; slow process, popups and not shutting down properly. I find out that there were popups and adware, here is a picture that you can see.
So yes Mac does get infected. So Protect your Mac from Malware.
Protect yourself by doing this step:
Make sure your Mac Malware database is always up-to-date if you want peace of mind, take an action: Go to System Preferences
- Open App Store Preference
- Check – Automatically check for updates.
- Check – Download newly available updates in the background. (You will be notified when the updates are ready to be installed.)
- Check – Install app updates
- Check – Install OS X updates
- Check – Install system data files and security updates.
Last one up to you:
- Check/ uncheck – Automatically download apps purchased on other Macs.
This will keep your Mac free from the most malicious software. Also, it is very unlikely, it doesn’t help you to install malicious software on your Mac. If you want to strict installation do this:
- Go to System Preferences
- Open Security and Privacy
- Allow apps to download from:
- Check – Mac App Store and Identified Developers.
This will strict the installation process. Check out Lexington PC Clinic YouTube channel, we have a YouTube video step by step direction to Protect your Mac from Malware.
Also, get antivirus for mac.
