Don't Download Chatvibes on Facebook

ChatVibes plant virus thread on your computer. 

If you chat on Facebook, you might receive invitations from your friends to chat using ChatVibes. I thought is will be easier using that plug-in but I was wrong. After downloading there will be a small icon on the chat bar next to the video camera icon for video calling. See the accompanied picture below. If on your first invitation you click on the link given, you will be ask to download the application and save it on your computer. However if you copy the link and past onto your address bar and click, it will lead you to bollywoodworld.com website that has no relation whatsoever to chat.   

I have tried to remove the application but as at this moment to no avail. I tried using the block app in Facebook, but there is no such application listed. I tried using the Add/Remove program in Windows  but the program is not listed there too. It was saved in my C: User folder and removing the program does not Uninstall the plug-in. 

So, the next time you receive an invitation from your friend on FB to chat using Chatvibes, just ignore it. The app will automatically send the invitation to your friend as soon as you click on his/her profile inviting to chat. 

Hope anyone who know how to remove this application from Facebook can help us victims of chatvibes to remove the plug-in.

A check on the chatvibes websites explain this;

To remove the ChatVibes Toolbar go to control panel->Add remove programs and uninstall ChatVibes. To remove ChatVibes from your browser all you need to do is to disable the ChatVibes add-on (on IE or Firefox) or extension (on Chrome) from your browser's tools/options menu. 

However there is no such Chatvibes on the Add remove programs in the Control Panel on my PC or Laptop.

I have been one of the victims and hope other will not be added to the list after reading this post.  

IS ACER NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ME?

What compatibality am I talking about?

Computer of course. I bought my first desktop in 1984 and it was a 386. The price then was nearly RM4k. However it was not a branded set and I know nuts about computer then. Since the salesman was my former student, he did impress me to buy what he suggested. However nothing wrong with that set. It works just fine and I did some community service with that set in the area of sports.

In 1995, I bought my first laptop for RM5,500.00 at a PC Fair in Penang and it was a Acer Travelmate. I bought that too because the salesman…..er…salesgirl did convince me with the set.

During its terms of warranty twice the hinge broke and I have to send it to the service centre to get it replaced. Luckily it all happens during the warranty period and I do not have to pay anything for it.Use it until it I bought a new laptop, a Benq in 2001. Since then I lost trust in Acer. I have no problem with BENQ hardwares but with the softwares.

I switched to a FTEC netbook when I have a power supply connection problem which turn out the be the motherboard on my BENQ.

Earlier this year  bought a Aspire AX3950 and last June I have to take it back to the service centre after I got this message:  DISK READ ERROR. It was a HDD defective sectors. The Hardisk was replaced and OS recovered.

Then during this Ramadhan I experience another problem with my Aspire. This was displayed on my monitor screen. The PC hangs.

I have no choice but to force shut and restart the PC. The same effect occurs forcing me to force shut down again.

When I restart this message appeared on the screen

So I think I can just let the PC repairs itself by clicking Restore

While in the process of restoring, the problem appears again and the process stalled. I have to go back to square 1 to post this blog and I am not sure when the problem will bug me again.

 

Did the same process the second time and then this message appears.

 

Now I have to carry my PC back to Low Yatt.

So, I am wondering…………Is Acer not compatible with me?
