Pop Up re:Mobile Security
« on: October 30, 2013, 05:11:26 PM »
I keep getting a pop up re mobile security which will not go away, I click on the cross to close it several times but it insists on staying on my screen for what seems like ages.  I don't require to use this at the present time so is there any way to stop it popping up (at least not so often)  Many thanks.

Thanks for your reply.  I had set my info/update pop-ups to 3 seconds but that had not worked - now I see why!  Will have to wait until they work out the bugs.

Is this problem any further towards being fixed?  I appear to be getting streaming updates ok but I am doing manual updates to ensure my system is secure.  Not having the update pop-ups is making me a little bit nervous!

Having installed version 9.0.2007 I am now getting a pop-up re a 'Halloween' video but still no update notifications.  Would a clean install address the problem or has the issue not been resolved?

I've got the problem and no a clean install doesn't fix it.

I had hoped that the new release would have resolved the problem!  I appear to be getting this popup in place of update notifications.

This appears to be a random bug where the update notification is actually producing the wrong popup...  There are several posts on this subject, and sometimes the voiceovers are missing

I have just had a update popup with voice over - which came as a bit of a shock as its been a while!  So it appears that the bug has now been fixed.
