What you need to do is....keep the first three streams you have, but instead of having them as email casts, make them nested programs. Each program will have one email (the relevant one for that program), and two smart campaigns:

2. The smart campaign that makes a person eligible again after no open. The filters here will be "was sent email more than two weeks ago", "not was sent email two times", and "not has opened email". (I would also suggest including "not has clicked email" since many people have image blockers which blocks the open, but they engage with a click). Flow step is "change program status of this nested program to be not member of program". Set it to run daily.

So what is happening here? Well, they will get the first deployment as normal. Marketo will then automatically change their status in that nested program to be "member." This in turn ensures that no one gets the same email twice. So when someone receives that email, but has never opened or clicked it, we flick their status back to "not in program". This will make them again eligible for the send, and they will receive that same email on the next cast. The "not was sent email two times" ensures that they will only be flicked back to eligibility ONCE. After they have received the email twice, they won't be flicked back again.

A new unstable resource-draining Adobe process that has recently appeared on my Mac is proving more difficult to hunt down and kill than the numerous other processes that Adobe creates. Generally following instructions here and elsewhere to disable the launching of these processes has worked, but I can't seem to figure out how to disable the latest: AdobeIPCBroker.

I don't know if they'll come back the next time I reboot, but in an attempt to prevent that I also disabled the "Launch Agents" in com.adobe.AAM.Updater-1.0.plist and com.adobe.AdobeCreativeCloud.plist.

(Who in Adobe thought it was a good idea to spend CPU and battery life constantly just to check for updates or things to 'sync'? That's like kids going around trick or treating all year just to be sure they don't miss Halloween. There are smarter ways to schedule things.)

It's created by Core Sync which is /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Creative Cloud/CoreSync/Core Sync.app. When I killed both Core Sync and AdobeIPCBroker, they didn't come back (for that session, anyway).

This is what Adobe support say - "You need to close all adobe applications when not in use from the activity monitor at last close adobe IPC monitor."- "We suggest to consumer close all adobe applications then close adobe IPC broker. If they not do so then all process again comes up."

So, essentially if you backup and delete those links, you'll rid-off them. However once you start and Adobe product, still there's going to be a bunch of stale processes like "Core Sync", "Adobe Desktop Service", "CCXProcess", and "CCLibrary" left behind, even after you terminating the software.

However, they don't seem to automatically update the LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons. So you're good again after a restart of Mac. There goes the "never restart, only sleep" choice! Core Sync and Desktop service seem to drain the battery a bit as well..

Smart Blocker is a rogue browser extension promoted as an ad-blocking tool (adblock). It specifically promises to block adverts on online videos. This piece of software operates by running intrusive advertisement campaigns. In other words, it delivers various misleading, unreliable, and even malicious ads.

Due to this, Smart Blocker is classified as adware. Additionally, this browser extension spies on users' browsing habits and collects sensitive information. Since most users download/install adware-type products unintentionally, they are also categorized as PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications).

Adware enables the placement of third-party graphical content - typically on any visited website. Software within this classification can deliver pop-ups, surveys, coupons, banners, full-page, and other intrusive advertisements. They severely cripple the browser experience by overlaying pages and slowing down the browsing speed.

Some intrusive ads can even be triggered (by being clicked) to execute scripts designed to stealthily download/install software (e.g., PUAs). As mentioned in the introduction, Smart Blocker has data tracking abilities, which is common for adware.

Information of interest includes (but is not limited to): URLs visited, webpages viewed, search queries typed, IP addresses/ geolocations, and personally identifiable details. Adware developers monetize the gathered data by sharing it with and/or selling it to third-parties (potentially, cyber criminals).

In summary, the presence of unwanted software on devices can lead to system infections, financial losses, serious privacy issues, and identity theft. To ensure device integrity and user safety, it is crucial to remove all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins immediately upon detection.

Browser Inverter Utility, Whiz Reader, Free Xbox Codes 2021- Xbox Gift card codes, Retina Defense, and Coupon Printer are some examples of adware. This software usually appears legitimate and useful. It also tends to offer a wide variety of functionalities.

However, despite how good the promised features may sound - they are rarely operational. In fact, this applies to practically all PUAs. The only goal of unwanted software is to generate revenue for the developers; hence, functionality and user privacy are irrelevant.

This false marketing technique of packing regular software with unwanted or malicious additions - is called "bundling". Rushed download/installation processes (e.g., ignored terms, skipped steps and sections, etc.) increase the risk of inadvertently allowing bundled content into the system.

Since dubious download channels, e.g., unofficial and free file-hosting websites, Peer-to-Peer sharing networks, and other third-party downloaders - commonly offer bundled and/or harmful content. When downloading/installing, it is advised to read terms, study available options, use the "Custom/Advanced" settings, and opt-out from additional apps, tools, features, etc.

Intrusive ads appear ordinary and innocuous; however, they redirect to various questionable sites (e.g., gambling, adult-dating, pornography, and so forth). In case of encounters with such advertisements and/or redirects, the system must be checked and all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins detected - removed from it without delay.

Right-click on the Start icon, select Apps and Features. In the opened window search for the application you want to uninstall, after locating it, click on the three vertical dots and select Uninstall.

After uninstalling the potentially unwanted application (which causes Smart Blocker ads), scan your computer for any remaining unwanted components or possible malware infections. To scan your computer, use recommended malware removal software.

Click the Chrome menu icon (at the top right corner of Google Chrome), select "More tools" and click "Extensions". Locate "Smart Blocker", select this entry and click the trash can icon.

Click the Edge menu icon (at the upper-right corner of Microsoft Edge), select "Extensions". Locate all recently-installed suspicious browser add-ons and click "Remove" below their names.

If you continue to have problems with removal of the ads by smart blocker, reset your Microsoft Edge browser settings. Click the Edge menu icon (at the top right corner of Microsoft Edge) and select Settings.

Select Restore settings to their default values. In the opened window, confirm that you wish to reset Microsoft Edge settings to default by clicking the Reset button.
