    - Security Bulletin MS03-037 This new security bulletin states that you need to patch several applications. Is there a patch that will look for the vulnerably? We run NT, 2K, XP, office 97, 2K, XP and so on and so on. This would be a nightmare to patch on 8000 workstations. Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32133

I geuse that a domain security settings are overwrighting the local machine setting but can't track it down. Anyone got any ideas? IainM Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32127

    - MICROSOFT HOAX???? I received what appears to be a legitimate email addressed from "Microsoft Internet Public Services [avcyfcrve- 336238@FYdFCvcU.com" advising about a cumulative September 2003 patch with two attachments (update486_exe.dat(78b) and antyvinnfo.txt(969b) Looks kind of suspect.

    - Security updates for WinNT4 Terminal Server Hello, ist there a way to get notified when a security update EXCLUSIVELY for WinNT4 Terminal Server is available? I get all the "normal" Microsoft emails for all updates, but finding out which one applies for the Terminal Server is time consuming. And: Windowsupdate does not work for the Terminal Server edition! Thanks for any help! If anyone has a suggestion, an email directly to my address would be great! Alfons Weig Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32116

    - Thanks All This babe needed a laugh and I wanted to say thanks. Your responses have made me laugh so much, words can't tell you my true thoughts right now. When it was discussed with my family about writing my book and the "dangers" we would have to live with, the family said "go for it". My family means the world to me and I knew of the "dangers" involved and my family was OK with it, because of me being able to help "millions" of computer users. You people have been really pushing me and your trying to scare me off, but it's not going to happen. My name means nothing to me, why should it to you. Just because this babe has done what "none" of you have done isn't a reason to flame me and that's all you people f*c*in do around these groups. I've spent two years with hackers abusing my computers and I tried to figure this shit out while my computer(s) were hacked and learned what "I" can do to help millions of computer users. Deal with it! This babe isn't going away, ever. BTW- I can use any Proxy Server this babe wants to since I have 80,000+ victims IP addresses and if I get permission to use them or not, you f*ck*n figure it out. Don't play games with me and I won't with you.. If you want to discuss anything with me from here on out, do it through e-mail and this babe will respond. My time is limited and I don't spend my life online like so many of you seem to do. Tracker Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32114

    - Microsoft fax security I recently installed and set up Microsoft fax to operate via a modem connected to my PC. However, our network administrator would not allow this, stating that this could facilitate access to our network via this fax line (my PC is also connected to a server) by unauthorised persons. Could somebody please advise as to the extent of the danger, if at all, and what could be done about it. Thanks Sindy (Johannesburg, South Africa) Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32105

    - error on more than just one page! I am so confused. To start with the first clue to knowing the fact that something is wrong. When I sign onto the internet and go to hotmail.com the sign-in screen comes up. The same "box" that I am to type in my password ID and then press sign-on a message occurs in a tan shaded area. <imgsrc="http"//wwwpassportimages.com/1033/dotnetlogoBIG.gi f" And I am anle to sign on and check my mail but I cannot do certain commands like: add a contact using the short cut method open anything from an email and at the bottom of my inbox there is a message that I don't have the code to right now. somthing about curmbox.. my junkmail folder usually gets like 30-70 junk mails and it only shows some and at the end of the "given" list a different message appears in place of the rest of my mail. The program is trying to tell me that something is wrong and I haven't the knowledge to know what. So if anybody could help me.... I can get you more information if needed. Please email me anytime Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32104

    - windows updates I work at a school with about 100 computers and seem to spend almost all of my time installing windows updates. we haven't enabled the automatic downloading bit because it will send our downloads through the roof ($$$!). Ideally, we want to somehow set it up so that each time a computer logs on, it will see what updates it needs then install them from a shared network drive from the server. Is this possible?

    - "Network Security Pack" e-mail from "Microsoft" ??? Today I received an unsolicited e-mail from "Microsoft" titled "Network Security Pack". It had two attachments, Q421038_exe.dat (0 bytes) and antyvirinfo.txt (680 bytes). The e-mail says to "install now to protect your computer...". This looks very suspiciuos to me. It has the appearance of coming from the real Microsoft Corp., but I have never heard of such updates coming through e-mail before. What should I do? Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32078

    - patches Hi, I have a question regarding an email service I just began through my university. About 10 days after I started using my new email address, I received an email from "security@microsoft.com". It told me to execute the patch that was attached to the message. I know that the university is just overcoming a huge virus problem. But I wonder where the message came from--there is no actual name on the email, and the message is also only 3 lines long, each ending in an exclamation mark (ie., Use this patch now!). Anyway, if anyone can enlighten me on this, I'd really appreciate it. My first inclination is not to use it, but then "security@microsoft.com" sounds so legit. Thanks very much, Nada.

    - Track down activity from ports 3120, 3466, 3470 there is a better group for this to be posted to, please let me know. I have McAfee AntiVirus Enterprise version installed. It is updated daily and is configured to scan "All" files. I run SpyBot Search & Destroy on a weekly. I have Windows XP firewall enabled. Our corporate LAN is behind a Cisco router with the IOS firewall installed. I just installed "Intrusion Catcher 2" and every time I open the web browser I get several hits from various remote sites, port 80, trying to open a connection to port 3120, 3466, or 3470 on my PC. All of these ports are related to various backdoor Trojans. I feel that my PC is clean, but I don't know how these remote sites would be alerted that I'm going on-line unless I have some rouge program running on it. I've used both TCPView and FPort to list the open ports and none of the above ports are in use. Is this a threat? Do I have a Trojan on my PC? How can I protect our PCs from this attack/probe? I'll put a packet sniffer on it as soon as I get some more time. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Harvey Colwell --- SDS, Inc Web: http://www.sds400.com/ Eml: harveyc@sds400.com -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32070

My operating system is WindowsMe, although I don't think that makes any difference regarding this problem.

    - MS03-037 Patch Verification Security Bulletin MS03-037 contains 6 different patches for various products (office 2000, office XP, visio 2002, etc) and Microsoft recommends applying multiple patches if you have the specific product installed. How do you verify a specific patch has been installed on a particular computer? The bulletin says to check one file (vbe6.dll) for all of the different patches. Do the patches modify other files? How can I determine whether or not both the Office 2000 patch AND the Visio 2002 patch have been installed? Thanks! Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32058

    - what is required to install ms03-037 right now out users are on Office 2000 sp2 and windows 2000 Sp2. After reviewing all the matrial on ms03-037 it shows that I need to install office 2000 sp3. In order to install office 200 sp3 I need to install the latest version of MSI which in turn requires windows 2000 SP3. Is this right? Is a fix available for earlier versions of office 2000?

    - Microsoft Please re-evaluate your rating system. Sorry to gripe about this but with so many "Critical" patches from Microsoft it is impossible to properly asses the impact of each of the hotfixes. Every time Microsoft declares a patch "critical" it means to me at least two more weeks of unproductive time for my team while they patch servers. In my assesment it looks like we could reclassify 80% of these 'critical' patches as 'significantly important' and leave the 'crtital' rating for the 20% of patches that are drop-dead urgent, do it now! chuck richards OTIS Elevator Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32055

    - Hiding domains I have 2 domains on the same LAN sharing the same IP address range. One is NT4 with Win98 stations, the other is 2003 with XP stations. There is NO trust set up between them. Is it possible to hide the domains from each other so that users cannot see the other domain when browsing with Explorer or My Network Places? Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32048

    - Networking to a machine know to be infected with a virus Here's a puzzle: A friend has an old W98 machine which he is sure has a virus infection. (Hardly surprising, he's never put an antivirus on it, despite my pleading.) He's a good friend, so I (still) want to help him get his data back, if possible. Trouble is, the floppy doesn't work, nor does the CD drive. Network or modem is the only way in or out. I've considered asking him to do an online scan via Symantec or McAfee websites, then download the specific removal tools. Alternatively I could put an Antivirus, definitions-file and firewall on an FTP site and download them from there onto the machine. However I don't think it's that socially-responsible to allow his machine to spray more viruses at the world while he's online. So, I've been considering connecting by cable to (gulp!) my fully-patched XP Pro machine with the latest AV and definitions, and scanning it as a mounted drive. I use a workgroup rather than a domain. Is this madness? If not, what precautions should I take? I've thought of running the W98 box as a user with low access rights on my XP box, and setting the firewall to distrust that machine.

    - ~tilde desktop fix Beta this procedure seems to be working so i thought i post it. this procedure addresses two problems: the creation of bogus address cards with nothing or just symbols...not good; the formation of the file itself on the desktop. 1) if ~ is on your desktop delete it. 2) go to find and type these three symbols "~" and hit find becuase it does not always wind up on desktop and you could have duplictes and delete it/them 3)delete the OE shortcut on desktop...you'll get back later 4)go to windows explorer and open outlook express folder and if you see a file ~ delete it. 5)open WAB and look for any unknown or unidentifiable address cards and delete them and close WAB. you may now see a new file ~ created there on the list. if you do not, don't worry about it. it will be created later. 6)go to the OE icon(envelope) and "send it" to the desktop. if you use "create shortcut" this procedure may not work because of labeling. The new icon should now read "Shortcut to msimn.exe" this outcome has not created those very disturbing bogus address cards yet or anyone else i've asked to try this. but if it does, you may need to download some language support from MS whether you use only english or not. my tests show it can make a difference. i suspect that the file is open to changes as it sits on the desktop from sources other than updates from WAB changes. i used w98se and IE6. good luck -- Posted via http://dbforums.com Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 32035

    - IPSec problem On XP Home Edition computer: Did Windows Update, but it failed towards the end. Now it disconnects dialup connection every time I try to scan for updates on Windows Update page. In event logs, there is a Failure Audit, event ID 615, "IPSec Services failed to get the complete list of network interfaces on this machine...", followed one second later by an Information event that the connection to the ISP was disconnected.

    - strange happenings OR blaster virus. Hi all, Home user-:WinXP,128MB RAM, SP-1,DUN , ICF ENABLED 2 weeks ago ,i was surfing the net when all of a sudden my system popped this message ,[see file attached]of system shutdown. As usual i am quite skeptical about such unknown messages. Once or twice previously i have recd a hoax message from my AVG Antivirus of virus detected while surfing the net and i just press the "restart" button , to stop the virus from if any, from attack...This time also i was about to press the restart button but the since the message was of shutdown and the popup screen also seemed to be normal i felt may be something related to Dial up networking must have crashed or something else[but still i was doubtful]. My pc shut down and upon reboot it functioned normally.....2 days later after a normal morning session, when i put on my Pc in the evening it kept restarting exactly just after/at the point the black screen comes showing "windows xp professional".In between these 2 events my AV [Avast 4.0] was updated for Blaster virus and i had also searched my pc for msblast.exe file if any and found nothing. This kept on happening even on safe mode, last good known config, etc.....In short the Desktop was never seen and before it the PC rebooted. I booted from Cd for a fresh installation and to my surprise i was shown only 2 partitions of my total 3 partitions[C:2gb,D:7.81gb,E:6.24gb,] for installing windows. The E: drive is where my windows XP is loaded and also all my program files....and this drive was not shown to me. The D: drive is the dump drive and C: for sundry items. This was quite a bit surprising as to how This E: disappeared. Now i was given a choice to either install on the remaining 2 drives or create a new partition in the balance space... Since i didnt want to take risk, i preferred to install on C:\ . At that time the drive had more than 1Gb free space.. Half a middle of the installation Win xp restarted and then again after booting from the cd i was shown the 2 choices only C & D. This time however the C: has free space about 600mb or something.... and i didnt know why XP didnt continue the installation again...[the free space was gone , may be i think on a/c of the installation files or what ??? i dont know ] Nevertheless i had to choose C: again for a fresh installation and opted to format the drive [ no option ] and loose my files. This time installation was sucessful and lo ! the explorer window showed me all my partitions including E:...Even my programs installed were also functioning properly including the AV I again searched the Pc for msblast.exe and also got the system scanned by my AV..But nothing was found.... I then again installed WINXP on E: after a quick format of the partition and formatted C: and till date my Pc is working fine... The reason for putting this info is since i came to know from the MS SITE that the blaster virus also gives such a shutdown message......... Was my Pc infected or something else ????

    - MS03-037 Problem with windows installer Hi, Someone in my comapny has installed Microsoft Update MS03-037, and now says that the Windows installer opens any time he uses any Office application (including everytime he opens an email in outlook). He claims that a window that says "Windows Insstaller" opens for a mintute then closes and then application opens as it should. Is there any way to rollback the patch, or is this a known problem with a resolution? Thanks in advance for any advice you might have! Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 31969

    - critical update repeatedly installs I have Windows 98, S.E. Recently, I checked the installation history and noticed that critical update 819696 had requested installation and had been installed on numerous days in the past. Why the multiple installations? Did I do something wrong or is this a sign of some malfunction? Tag: DirectX9.06 critical update Tag: 31967

I keep getting a notice to download DirectX9.06 as a
critcal security update.

I don't think I even have this program. How can I check
to see if I really need this?

Thanks

If dxdiag doesnt work, you dont have directx installed (which
would be really surprising).
