    - Twain Tech removal I finally got rid of one instance of Twain Tech on an XP machine after days of fighting it. 1. I deleted everything in \documents & settings\*username*\local settings\temp folder. 2. I deleted the key: HKLM\software\microsoft\windows NT\currentversion\winlogon\notify\WPAEvents. It was pointing to the "2ldsrch.dll" file in system32 folder that kept coming back. 3. I ran the Giant software that finds and deletes the "2dlsrch.dll" file that shows up as 'TwainTech'. 4. Reboot If you update to Windows XP service pack 2 and run the "critical updates" for XP, you can prevent programs like this one from coming back. I just wanted to see if I could get rid of this one manually before updating to SP2. Hope this helps someone! - Jim http://www.wwwdothttpdotdotcom.com Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 64062

    - svhost.exe and bgthye.exe I had had problems with a users notebook using up all the bandwith when it was connected to the LAN in the office. Ending Process "bgthye.exe" in Task Manager fixed the problem. After installing XP SP2 on the machine, Windows asked me if I wanted to block svhost.exe and bgthye.exe from accessing the Internet. I found some user group chats that highlighted svhost.exe as a virus and described how to get rid of it. Fine! My problem is that I can find nothing about "bgthye.exe". Does anyone know if this is a virus too? And should I be following the same sort of process to getrid of it as I did with svhost? Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 64059

    - XP doesn't recognize VCOM virus protection Is this common? It's definitely in there... The computer in question had a virus, so put in a larger hard drive, reloaded everything and installed VCOM Fix-It Utilities. After doing all that, a little cartoon bubble popped up that said it didn't see any virus protection software. I figured out how to stop it from continually asking about it and sent the computer on its way. *that is the question I have* NOW for a little background and longer story... Here it is, one week later, and they've got a virus again. They have MSN and have many attachments in their hotmail email inboxes. I am thinking that there is a virus in one of them, and when launched it infects the PC. I have the same VCOM Fix-It Utilities on my PC with Windows98 and use Outlook Express for email. If I am sent a virus, I get an alert as soon as it shows up in the inbox. Using MSN Hotmail, it seems to me that the virus wouldn't be detected by VCOM Fix-It Utilities until it was too late - AFTER the infected file has been launched. Am I thinking wrong? I read that MSN Hotmail accounts are supposed to protected by McAfee, but if I find my theory about this to be true (I'm picking up the diseased PC tomorrow to check it out), Hotmail's going to be hearing from me. Thanks for listening, and if you have any ideas or random thoughts feel free to reply, Bill Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 64055

    - IPSec experience in internal networks I have been reading documentation on enabling IPSec on AD environment via group policies (client-to-client, server-to-client, server-to-server). In general, for a 3,500+ PCs environment, with 120 Win2000/Win2003 servers, what would be the maintenance involved when enabling IPSec ?

    - Accessing resources on a Domain from a Workgroup on a different su Our PDC is an NT Server with an IP of x.x.x.* We have remote PC's not joined to this domain, but are just in their own peer to peer workgroup, and the have a different subnet of x.x.y.* Through the "search for computers" option, and entering the IP of the PDC, I can see all the shared resources within the domain from a PC in the workgroup, but cannot access any folders. All the remote PC's are Windows 2000. Is there ANY way to access the shares that exist within the domain from a non-domain PC without joining the domain and/or changing the subnet to match the PDC?

    - hack tools detected I occasionaly use my laptop and only have AVG antivirus loaded. Everytime that I use the laptop I update the AV and then run a full scan. On my last scan nothing was detected, I used the laptop for a few hours and then shut it down. This morning I loaded Panda Titianium AV and then ran a full scan and it told me that it had found three Hacker tools which seemed to be installed in the system restore files. They had the word PSkill attached to them, Can anybody tell me what these are and how they could affect me. They are now deleted. I have run Adaware, Spybot and Panda and seem to have a clean system.

    - MS Update incorrectly warns of virus My MS Update subscription is incorrectly telling me I probably have or have had a virus, offering me the Mydoom, Zindos, and Doomjuice Worm Removal Tool (KB836528) The only reason I can think it might flag the "virus" is that I have MS Taskmon.exe in the windows folder. NOT the one in the %system% folder that is a symptom of Mydoom. I don't have and have never had a virus. I currenlty run 98se, Zonealarm and Nod32, practise safe sex, wear sunglasses and manually check the registry, ini files, autoexec.bat, startup etc. I used the Syphos and McAfee descriptions of the infection and went through all the things the virus could have done, and none of them were on the PC. I'm not promiscuous with the PC (e-promiscuous??) so there's no real chance I've caught a virus recently. How can I stop MS offering me this update that I don't need?

    - XP Pro "search" feature seems to ignore file permissions Hi Guys, I'm messing with settings in my brand new machine, as was wondering why it seems that XP Pro's "search" feature ignores folder permissions. For example, I have a user named "user1." If I create a folder and give him full control of it and deny full control to all other users on the machine, I'm still able to "search" and see file names and directory structures that should be off limits. It just occured to me that maybe this is because I'm checking with my administrator account, but I explicitly denied administrator permissions as well. As a sidenote: I'm running Windows XP Professional, SP2 w/ the latest, greatest hotfixes (as of November 7th). Any ideas? Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 64018

Payment notifications, although sent by Paypal, always have the email address of the person who made the payment in the From: field.

    - 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.

    - 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: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 63905

    - User profiles /SID Problem Description: My Windows 2000 Server had a hardware failure. I had to contact dell to send replacement parts. I had to reinstall the server OS. Then I connected my XP workstations to the server. I changed to a workgroup and then re-attached to the server. Now my User profile can not be accessed. \my computer\properties\advanced\user profile indicates the "Account unkrown" I have reattached to the server and can not get to the profile. My Backup software does not read my tapes even though they verified after every backup. I need my profile and My Documents back. What can I do. My network has been down for over a week. I am writing this email from my laptop. It too was affected. I have five computers (XP Pro) that are affected. Has anyone used regedit to change the user profile? What are my options? -- thanks Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 63897

    - Excessive Outgoing Packets Sent When I click on my Network Connection i see excessive packets sent. It always seems to be in increments of 4 Gig. For example, in one day, with minimal to no computer use, my computer will have 1 K packets received and 24 Gig sent. I am running Windows XP Home Edition w/ SP2. I have a cable broadband connection with a Linksys Firewall. I have always used Norton Securtity, and it never detects a virus or such. Anybody have any ideas of what might be going on? I have also used Spybot to try and troubleshoot, but haven't found much. Thanks Tag: US - CERT Vulnerability Note VU#842160 Tag: 63890

Microsoft has not responded to this potential issue. Does anyone know the
status or if Microsoft has responded in any way.

TIA

This is not unusual in the slightest. Except in extreme cases, Microsoft
does not comment publicly on unpatched vulnerabilities, but I am confident
they are aware of it and working on a fix. Until then, be sure you are
using an anti-virus software with the latest updates, use safe web browsing
and email procedures, and consider the workarounds in the article. The
usual stuff.
