  1. How can a file from Microsoft.com harm my device? Do you see how stupid this makes you all...


    Windows Security started sending me notifications for the first time ever the other day. I opened Windows Security the first day Monday and today Wednessday and saw the following: first let me say it happened 3 times on Monday increasing to so far 11 times today Wednesday "Protected Memory Access Blocked" if I try to investigate it further a box pops open and reads: "Do you want to allow this app to be able to make changes to your device" Yes - No. Windows Security. Normally seeing Windows Security I would click on YES however, I have no idea what kind of protected memory and who did it bloc

    ...

    you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

    or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.

    Microsoft to Acquire Nokia's Devices & Services Business

    The Chief Executive of Nokia Stephen Elop will step aside and return to Microsoft, his position at Microsoft is not yet disclosed but it is being rumored that Mr. Elop will be signed as the CEO for Microsoft once Ballmer hands in his resignation in the coming year.


    As demands grow weak for Nokia’s mobile devices the company is faced with cash-flow problems. It has lost a majority of its market share to Apple and Samsung.
    "It's a bold step into the future - a win-win for employees, shareholders and consumers of both companies," Microsoft's outgoing CEO, Steve Ballmer, said in a statement.
