How can I fix the "an error has occurred. Please try again later" message I receive when I try to connect to YouTube (process com.google.android.youtube)?
Here are some I came across little Googling,1. Try to get rid of cookies Here's how to do it, from Google Groups a. Go to "YOU TUBE" site, b. Click "TOOLS", c. Click "DEVELOPER TOOLS", d. Click "CACHE", e. Click "CLEAR COOKIES FOR DOMAIN" f. Click "YES", g. Close BOTH windows. 2. Give a try with another profile3. Verify if it's an issue with rooted device4. You might need to use good process and cache cleaner software which will remove all junk files in the memory (I use Clean Master on Google play store )Most people on above mentioned forum seem to have solved this issue just by clearing out cookies.Hope this helps!
How do I unblock websites on a school Chromebook?
On most website blocks I have seen used in schools, the sites are blocked before the request hits the DNS server (or may even be blocked by a local DNS resolution server)What that means, is say they decide to block Quora, they will block the domain http://www.quora.com, so if you type in that domain, the server responsible for blocking that website will block that domain request before it is sent to the DNS resolution serverHow a DNS resolution server works, in simple terms, is it translates something we relate to (a word, in this case quora and domain type, in this case commercial or .com) and converts it into something that more digitally understood (IP addresses)The best way to describe this would be how we understand home addresses, when we announce that we are going to a known place, we say something like “Hey, I’m going to Mike’s house”, we all know who Mike is and where he lives, so it makes no sense to say “Hey, I’m going to 123 Fake St. Fauxville, Madeupstate, USA”, “Mike’s house” would be an example of a domainNow say you have controlling parents, they know where Mike lives, and don’t want you going there, but they don’t know the mailing address, saying the mailing address would be the best way to get away with getting permission to goSame thing with website blocks, most blocks will block the domain, but not the IP, so if you bypass the DNS lookup and connect directly via it’s IP, so instead of going to http://www.quora.com, you would go to 192.229.182.210, then you should be able to access quora unblockedIn order to search for what IP a certain website uses, you need to do a reverse DNS lookup, this can usually be done by pinging a website by it’s domain name and seeing what IP it starts to ping, for example, when you ping quora.com, it will begin pinging 192.229.182.210This may not always work, but it’s always worth a shot of you need to visit a blocked website and can’t or shouldn’t change settings
Why is this "Attention Required! One more step. Please complete the security check to access www.xyz.com" displaying whenever I'm accessing a website?
This is legit security for the site to protect it against potential threats (like DDOS). Either you're using a proxy server or for whatever reason the site believes you are visiting from a restricted IP or a restricted country. Fill in the captcha and visit your site. BTW, hopefully you have decent anti-virus software on your computer (run it now to make sure your computer isn't unknowingly distributing malware) - just entering a captcha is rarely dangerous. It's when a file is installed on your computer that you need to worry. Why do I see a captcha or challenge page (Attention Required) trying to visit a site protected by CloudFlare as a site visitor?
Can I get hacked by clicking on a malicious link? What can I do to protect myself if I clicked on a malicious link?
The answer is simple; yes! Clicking on a link is you telling the computer I accept whatever this is and will go wherever this link takes me. The result is that you could download malware, a virus, or rootkit into your machine that allows it to be taken over by a hacker. It becomes part of a bot or botnet. The result is that your computer and its contents belongs to someone else. They can use it and do to it whatever they want. You may never even know this is happening. Some malware is designed to run 'in the background.' Meaning its doing things silently and secretly. In some instances you may end up with ransomeware. This is a program that takes your computer over completely and forces you to pay a ransome to get it back. See CryptoLocker - Ramsomeware Rises to New Dangerous LevelsIf you should click on link you believe or discover has delivered malware on your system you need to do an immediate scan using your up-to-date anti-virus program. Then go to the next step and use a root kit scanner. I use the Malwarebytes Beta Rootkit scanner but you could also use Kaspersky Labs free root kit tool. Keep in mind that malware will sometimes reveal itself. If you are lucky. It may change your homepage, add a toolbar or change your default search engine. That's if you're lucky. Unlucky means your files get encrypted, your system goes crazy and won't work or you start getting angry messages from friends claiming you infected their computers. Viruses and malware can send themselves to all your contacts. Unlucky means your passwords have been recorded using a key-logger and a hacker empties your bank accounts and steal your identity.Never click on any link you are not absolutely certain of. Especially in unsolicited email. If you get an email from a friend with an attachment or link don't click on it. Call them and ask them what is it? Maybe its their system that's infected?
