When everything works right, it's wonderful, but...
If you have problems with the site, don't hold your breath waiting for tech support to solve them.
If your docs use recorders and don't need the call-in service that Medikin provides, I would suggest WebChart MD.
MTStars free program is wonderful and puts out a professional invoice!!! nm

Tech question. I have discovered spyware on my PC. It is blocking me from using anti-spyware softw
and fix the problem. I need help! Any ideas on how to locate the offending program and get rid of it. I downloaded Ad-Aware in an tried to run it and it's blocking that too and my McAfee is being blocked as well. I cannot run a scan at all.

Try Crap Cleaner
Google for it and download (should be from Hippo). Run it - let it analyze and run cleaner. Then go to "tools" and "fix issues." After that reboot your computer and then try to get the gid file again. Hopefully this will clean out anything you've got blocking it.
My first job working at a dry cleaner/laundry. sm
Working on a shirt folding machine in the summertime with temp over 100 degrees indoors. Smelling the dry cleaning fumes.
Download Crap Cleaner (sm)
Google for it. I will clean out all your cache, even the hidden stuff.
Hired house cleaner
You are getting a deal at $12 an hour. I pay mine $20. I carry an umbrella policy on my home on vehicle that is $1 million over my regular home insurance - it costs less than $200 a year and will cover anyone that is injured in your home or vehicle - It is well worth it. This policy picks up where the other two leave off, should anyone need that much in medical care.
Great Vacuum Cleaner
Riccar Vacuum Cleaners are the only way to go. Very strong suction. Easy to use.
I love my Roomba robot cleaner
It has a remote control - no pushing it around, and it's fun to watch.
Buy canned air - much safer, quicker & cleaner!

yes AdAware is good, so is that cleaner program
but just to be wary about others that offer free antivirus and then latch onto your system so you will buy it...
:)
Need some good advice on a GREAT vacuum cleaner...sm
We vacuum at least twice daily because we bought carpet that tracks like you would not believe. We bought a Eureka bagless vacuum cleaner about 4 months ago and it is the pits! Does not pick up, you have to REALLY clean it every time...who knows what the real problem is...I would not mind paying good money for a GOOD vacuum cleaner that does not lose suction...Any ideas?
Can anywone recommend a good vacuum cleaner? My old one broke and has to be replaced. Thanks. NM

Carpet cleaner? Flea spray? Chemicals used inside his car? Restaurant food? New vitamins? Cold

Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
Free? As in, free trial? Otherwise, I don't think you'll find a spellcheck software that's

Check out the free demo of MTStars FlashType. It's free for 7 days.
Then, if you like it, you can purchase it for $59.95. See link below.
spyware
the spyware site you are referring to is www.ewido.net/en/
I went there and tried free version...did not find anything my present spyware program had not found. try emptying your temp. internet files, empty your cookie cash, and defrag. see if that helps. oh. and maybe empty your history folder too. sometimes that gets bogged down after awhile too.
spyware
try spybot, search and destroy, free download, free spyware, or spyblaster.
spyware
Happened to me today when I started working - took almost four hours to get it straigtened out with Dell - glad I paid the $300 for IT support - otherwise my computer would be a goner and I just bought it in August.
Which spyware did you use.
:
spyware
Adware SE and Spybot actually installs Spyware onto your computer. I used them for a while and could never get certain spyware off my computer because they belong to Adware SE and Spybot. I downloaded the free beta spyware program from www.microsoft.com and no longer have any spyware. You can also program this to run every morning. Good luck!!!
spyware
Try Spyware Doctor - I have found it to be a great program. lc
spyware (sm)
If you don't remove Spyware from your computer, eventually you will have so many spyware programs running that you won't be able to surf the internet because the programs will be using all your resources to send info back to their servers. It does need to be removed.
The link below has software you can download for free. It is the full version for the first 30 days and if you don't buy, it will automatically become the freeware version. Run that and see if it gets rid of the error. You'll probably be surprised at how much data is being mined off your computer.

Does anyone else's pc get infested with Spyware after visiting this site?
Spyware!!
I'm having a problem with my computer, and could really use some advice. I started getting this popup asking me to install their anti-spyware program. It was so annoying and just wouldn't go away. Then, one of my transcription programs disappeared. After that, my computer kept shutting down on me. And then, it wouldn't come on at all. I finally was able to get it to stay on and I went right out and bought the latest version of McAfee, but now when I try to install it, I get a failed installation message. I have a feeling that whatever virus I have contracted is actually stopping me from installing the McAfee. Has anyone else had this happen. I'm so frustrated! I will never let my anti-virus software expire again, that is if I can get one on my computer again!
keylooger spyware
yes, you need to be concerned. This would allow someone to steal your passwords to anything. There is a company eAnthnology (symantec the folks that does Norton) that you can download from the internet. For a small monthly fee ($7) you get a firewall, emaill scanner, popup blocker, etc and telephone support if needed. Scans are automatially ran at specific intervals that you set and then they are automatically cleaned. If cannot be cleaned right then, message is sent to the company and they write a program to fix and then it is fixed automatically. Great company!!!! I have used them for years.
Help! I have spyware on my computer
I have dealhelper Spyware on my computer and I ran Adware SE and spybot and can't get it to go away. It is on my list of computer programs under add/delete programs and it is taking up almost 3000 MB of space. It won't let me delete it through add/delete because it says file not found. Is anybody technically savvy? Do I need to purchase one of these expensive programs from the internet to get this off my computer or is there a free one?
Question about Spyware. sm
I can't find a technical board, so here goes. I was evidently infected by Spy Sheriff about 6 weeks ago. I kept rerunning my Norton, and the red button with the white x finally stopped popping up constantly. However, when I make a new Word file, I get a second file that looks like a ghost file, with a tilda and a dollar sign in front of it. Now I am having trouble with my internet connection cutting out, having to reboot frequently, and my emails are not always going through. I'm not sure if this is related. I have tried to find info on this "virus," but there is so much conflicting info I don't know what to believe. Has anyone had this problem? Do I still have the spyware? Can I get something that will completely wipe it out, or will I have to wipe my hard drive? Will that even work, if I have to reload my ShortHand and Word? Any advice appreciated. TIA.
Escription - Spyware?
Hey, everyone. I need some advice - again! I just started training on Escription and have noticed that it has some processes that run in the background while I am not even using the program. Did a little investigating and found out that these processes are monitoring me!!! Now, call me paranoid, but I do not think Escription has any business monitoring me when I am not running the program. I know this is part of their whole "learn to use shortcuts and be a great transcriptionist" program, but it kinda burns me.
I was really happy with my company until I discovered this. Now I am very displeased, and not sure of how to handle this, what to do. I guard my privacy almost religiously.
I know Escription is a popular platform, so some of you have worked/do work on it. Can you tell me how you feel about this issue, what you would do, etc?
Thanks in advance.

Spyware on EXText too?
Does anyone know if Dictaphone ExText uses spyware?
Remove Spyware...
The best method for removing Spyware is called "Spybot Search and Destroy" It is available from downloads.com. http://www.download.com/3001-8022_4-10804822.html that page will start the download right away, it's a safe link. It is also a free program. Spybot will clean the PC, and when you run the "immunize" program it will keep things safer. Also if you install "Teatimer" which is included, it will warn you if something is trying to make a change, such as a website that tries to change your home page or add to the registry. Teatimer can become annoying when you are installing software though, because it pops up every time the new software tries to make a change to warn you, and you have to click "approve change" if you're in the middle of installing something.
On another note, I have found that just running Firefox instead of Internet Explorer has saved me from many problems as well.
My 2 cents.
Spyware 2008
Is anyone, or has anyone dealt with this thing? My daughter is home for Christmas and I do not know if she accidentally started this thing or not. She only goes into Facebook and MySpace, as I do. Anyway, this thing keeps popping up. My virus scan keeps blocking it. Do I have anything to worry about?
Probably a virus/spyware
I had this happen a couple of years ago and it was pretty disconcerting. I think I ended up running my virus scan, my Ad-Aware...I am trying to remember, but I think the thing that replaced Google ended up being a program that I had to go into my Add/Remove programs and remove it. It was a pain in the butt and kinda scary knowing that something had a hold of my computer and God only knew what was going to be damaged/hijacked. I don't know how tech-comfortable you are, but if you've got any tech-savvy friends, it might be worth summoning them over to find where this may have taken root.
Full Word is in the Works "Suite," not plain Works.
Works saves files in a different format, but you can open them in Word if you have the correct filter installed.
I agree with the poster regarding spyware.
good Spyware program
Ewido: http://www.ewido.net/en/
My husband learned about this from one of his college professors. We both tried it and discovered that it found stuff on our systems that other Spyware programs such as Spy Sweeper and Spy Blaster missed.
