    - Hotmail and Comcast - rejections? Hi, I should have received two payment notifications from Paypal sent to my Hotmail account, but neither have arrived. Payment notifications, although sent by Paypal, always have the email address of the person who made the payment in the From: field. Both of the ppl sending me money had @comcast.net email addresses...which leads me to believe that Hotmail is rejecting them without my knowledge... I know that the payments have been received - they are in my Paypal account.... Anyone have any knowledge of whether there's a problem with Hotmail and Comcast? Si.

    - Solution to browsing to a Windows 2000 machine from a 98 machine I have found a workaround to that old age problem of browsing WIN2k from 98. I was running w2k as a ICS gateway with a 98 (first edition) client. Forget the internet, it is not important, the trouble I was having was getting Windows 98 to be able to browse through network beighbourhood. First I tried forcing 2k to be master browser through registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters\MaintainServerList (can be True, False or Auto) no joy then I started messing about with guest user, still no joy. Setting local security policy to allow enumeration without explicit access (or whatever it is called). This also did not help. I already had common users and passwords on both machines, so this also was not the problem. In the end I found that if you go on WIN98, networking properties, client for MS networks, and the advanced (or something) you can set Browse Master = True. I also went in to w2k above reg, and set it to FALSE. This way the 98 is master computer browser whatever and was able to browse! This also meant my gateway is not the master computer browser which is a bonus. Forget Stupid guest account. Lock down the enumeration setting in local security policy, and you can STILL browse and access your network HOOORAY! anyways, here is your basic checklist to this age old problem. 1 - Put common usernames and passwords for network access on both machines. 2 - Ensure that client for MS networks is there on both machines. (on Win98 make sure this is your default log on in the pull down list). (But please untick this on any connections that are directly on the internet like dial ups or Adsl Modems - you dont want to share out your files on the net (which is done by default on almost every connection I have ever seen - DUH MSFT)). 3 - On win98, go into the file and print sharing setting and tick both boxes to enable File and Print Sharing on that box, (this is not necessary to veiw shares on other pcs). 4 - On 98 machine go into advanced for client for MS networks and set Master Computer Broswer = True. 5 - Go onto w2k machine and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters\MaintainServerList = False. I think that is all you need. Any comments suggestions please post follow ups. Regards James Buttle ADDITIONAL NOTE *************** BTW for security... 1 always have a firewall on your internet connection 2 rename administrator account and have long passwords for all users 3 disable NetBIOS over IP under particular device in advanced, TCP/IP properties, advanced, WINS. 4 have an up to date antivirus package 5 run lavasoft adaware regularly 6 get all microsoft critical updates 7 Restrict anonymous access / enumeration under local policies, security options in local security policy. 8 Untick client for MSFT networks and File and print sharing for any internet connections such as ADSL modems, and dial ups. 9 Disable / kill / remove all guests and other useless accounts 10 If possible leave your computer off and sit in an underground bunker the rest of your days.

I set myself up as administrator and my children as limited, the day after my 14 year old son knew my password? All he would say is that he pressed 2 or 3 keys and it shows the most pressed keys or something like that, but he will not say which keys, he says it's his secret. I would like to know how he's doing this or at the very least how I can prevent him from finding out my new password, without having to ban him from the computer.

    - XP client security I have a question concerning client security. We have a demo copier that can send scanned documents in a PDF format to a shared folder destination on a workstation in our local domain by means of either SMB or FTP. With SMB, the copier uses an older method of authentication (NTLM v. 0.12) so it is incapable of accessing a folder on our Windows Small Business Server 2003 which requires the digital signing. In order for this copier to send to a folder on our server we would have to disable the digital signing on the server. That is not an option. We need to keep the server secure. Since this device can access a folder on a workstation via SMB by the method described, my question is - will this scenario compromise the overall security of our network? Will the separation from the server by scanning to a workstation allow for greater security considering the logon limitations of the copier? The ultimate goal is to place scans in a common folder on the Windows Small Business Server 2003 that can be accessed only by authorized network clients - either locally or remotely. As I also mentioned, there is a possibility of using FTP to put scans on the workstation. Only the workstation will have to have an FTP server running to accept the scans from the copier. I had heard that we should not run FTP server software on our Windows Small Business Server 2003. How will this affect our network's security to run an FTP Server on the workstation? I know that our security is only as strong as the weakest link. I am curious about the implications of either method and the effect on our secure environment. Thank you for your answers.

    - "A program is trying to automatically send e-mail..." workaround I have just installed SpamAssassin on my mail server. If it misses a Spam, I need to resend the spam to a particular mailbox to "Re Learn" the message as spam. Using Outlook, I have to Open the message (sometimes they are offensive), click Actions/Resend answer the "You didn't send this originally" warning, change the TO to "spam", click Send, Close the original message, and finally delete it. I wrote a macro For Each objMailItem In objExplorer.Selection objMailItem.To = "spam@visioncomm.net" objMailItem.Send Next objMailItem so I could just select a bunch of False Negatives and click one toolbar button. I guess I don't really mind the "A program is trying to automatically send e-mail..." dialog (although I'd prefer not to see it) but the 5 second delay before you can click YES is particularly annoying. I wrote a rule that does this, but it can't be called automatically. I have to move all the FN spams to a particular folder, click Rules Wizard, Run Now, confirm the correct folder is selected, select the Spam rule, and Ok, then Cancel. Also way too much work. Anyone have any ideas on working around this silly 5-second wait? Sending/Deleting a selected few messages another way? Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63905

I have searched all hard drives for MP3W.EXE using Explorer Find but to no avail. I fear I have compounded the problem and now can't tell if this MP3W is a virus or a system file. Is there anything I can do to resolve this situation? Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63849

    - Applications that require Internet access I am running an application that must connect to the Internet. I can configure proxy settings. However, if the firewall is configured to prompt that an external connection is being made, the application cannot complete its Internet access procedure. How should the firewall policies be configured so that the application can access the Internet without intervention. Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63840

    - Are credentials sent via a client browser->IIS6.0 if using 'integrated authentication' protected by Kerberos? Imagine I am not using SSL or a certificate.I go to IE and launch http:\\ MyServerSite The authentication in use is "Windows integrated authentication". Since I am not using SSL, if somebody uses a packet decoder to grab data from that connection, what type of information would be retrievable ? Is the login information/password protected by Kerberos in this scenario ? Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63839

    - win2k3 and isa2k vulnerability scan I ran a nessus (free open source vulnerability scanner) scan on my 'public-ip/web server'. It was able to identify the version of ISA and IIS that i was running. It also reported a MS Predictable TCP sequence vulnerability, i dont know if it was referring to Win2k3/IIS 6.0 or ISA2K. The recommendation for the tcp sequence vulnerability was to get a patch from the vendor? It also recommended to use URLSCAN to hide the identity of IIS 6.0? Does anyone know how i can get that patch from MS for the tcp sequence vulnerability, and how to configure urlscan to hide the IIS version im using? Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63837

    - L2TP over IPsec VPN and nat-t I am having problems making a L2TP over IPsec VPN work when the remote client is behind a NAT device. The VPN uses IPsec certificates and this all works good if the remote user is directly connected to the internet (i.e. the machine has a public IP address assigned), but as soon as the computer is behind a device and receives a private IP address, the VPN tunnel times out. (The IPsec creates successfully, but the L2TP connection fails...error 682). These remote clients are connecting a Netscreen 25 for their VPN tunnels. This device supports nat-t. The L2TP connections for this device only work in "transport mode". One other thing, this process works just fine if I have the remote clients connect just using an L2TP tunnel (no IPsec). Then there seems to be no problem with NAT and the remote clients. I have tested this VPN setup using windows 2000, windows XP pro, and windows XP home edition. All three OSs respond the same. I am wondering if there is some type of setting I need to modify in windows that will allow IPsec to function in "transport mode" or at least apply nat-t to the L2TP connection.

    - PKI I don't know if this is the right forum to post this qestion, but I couldn't find a specific PKI Newsgroup...so here goes. To make a long post short, we have deployed a enterprise sub ca server that is issuing certificates to our test clients. Our application develpor created logic that connects to the certificate database when a user enrolls for a certificate to see if a certificate has been issued for this particular user. It seems that after 20 connections to the certificate database, you get the following error message: "Server was unable to process request. And attempt was made to open a Certification Authority database session, but there are already too many active sessions. The server may need to be configured to allow additional sessions." After about 1 minute, you can make valid connection attempts again. Does anyone know of a concurrent connection limitation when connecting to a certificate database? If so, is there a way you can expand this connection limit? I can't seem to find anything on the web that lists anything about his issue for PKI is not as well documented as most of the technologies out there. Thanks!

    - Local Area Quarantine System Hello All, I am looking for a system that would quarantine users, run some sort of checking rountine before allowing them full access to internal systems. The Network Quarantine Control in RRAS does this for remote VPN connections but I am looking for an internal network system. Does Microsoft have this functionality for internal AD logon authentication? Tag: Blocking a domain from computer Tag: 63821

    - Password must meet complexity requirements on Domain Controllers Hi there, Can anyone help me to retrieve the value of â??Password must meet complexity requirementsâ?? on Domain Controllers? The location for this setting is: Start->Program->Administrative Tools->Local Security Policy-> Security Settings->Account Policies-> Password Policy->Password must meet complexity requirements. This has two settings â??Local Settingsâ?? and â??Effective Settingsâ??. The â??Effective Settingsâ?? has higher priority then â??Local Settingsâ??. One can enable the â??Effective settingsâ?? by following the path: Start->Program->Administrative Tools->Domain Security Policy-> Windows Settings->Security Settings->Account Policies-> Password Policy->Password must meet complexity requirements. I need to retrieve the value of â??Password must meet complexity requirementsâ?? for both â??Local Settingsâ?? and â??Effective settingsâ??. Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Thanks.

Is there ANY way that a specific domain can be blocked from accessing my
computer? I have a firewall, but they still get thru. Right now they have
10 popunders that have invaded my computer, and the only way I can get rid of
them is to shut down. They do not pop up when clicked. This is driving me
CRAZY! HELP please.

You did not mention your operating system but XP SP2 has a built in pop up
blocker that works very well. The firewall will block Windows Messenger
service type pop ups that usually appear in a gray box. For browser pop ups
try the Google Toolbar. It is free and works very well though I suggest you
install without the advanced features when prompted.. --- Steve

What firewall?
What OS version?
Have you run AdAware and Spybot (latest versions, updated before scanning)?
