    - users and local Admins As you might know, We have a domain setup where it was migrated from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003. A security review (Audit) was done by third party and their report has number of issues. One of the issues is as follows: Each user account in the domain is member of the Local Administrators on his/her respective machines. Their recommendation is to remove user accounts from Local Admins in desktops and laptops. We tested removing the users from the local admin group for a small number of test users and we faced different symptoms after that (One user canâ??t open his PST file from inside Outlook, another User canâ??t open Adobe Acrobat PDFs, another user who was able to install application was not able to uninstall them, another user was not able to enable the wireless network connection while at home). We need an official advice from Microsoft in such scenario, is it better to keep the users as members of Local Admins on their laptops and avoid creating a lot of different problems or its recommended to remove them from the Local Admin Group and point out expected problems that might arias and how to solve them.

    - How to make the downloaded files scanned by Symantec Antivirus? Hi,all. I am using Symantec Antivirus. Sometimes I will add some files onto the hard disk, and I use Flashget(software for fast downloading) to download them. There is an option for installed antivirus software that can make these downloaded files scanned for virus.I chose where the AT software located and "Rtvscan.exe". But it does not work. After files downloaded, the AT software does not start scanning them, but there is a window of command line flashing for a second. I wonder if the Symantec Antivirus has scanned the files just downloaded. Please help me. -- My reply is on the top of yours. Thanks for your help!

    - Built-in SID accounts??? There are built in security identifiers for windows server 2003. You can specfiy different ones to launch the services. What I don't know is if there are diffierent permissions based on the one you use. SID: S-1-5-18 Name; Local System SID: S-1-5-19 Name: NT Authority\Local Service SID: S-1-5-20 Name: NT Authority\Network Service Applied a high security template that impacted the SQL2005Express service starting up as a service. It was using the Logon as Network Service. If I change the logon to use Local System, then it starts with no errors. But concerned that there may be something else broke that I haven't discovered.

    - Looking for a IDS/Sniffer Hi All, I'm not sure if this is the forumn for this question or not but I'll throw it out there. I'm working at a client where the manager wants to implement a IDS and network sniffer solution. Basically we want to 1) monitor and block intrusions into our nework from outside 2) track and block internet abuses 3) track and manage network performance (packets, http, etc..) All of this is to enhance the Cisco firewally we already have in place. Our network is Windows 2003 AD and what we're really starting to do is build an enterprise network that will provide the stability and protection we're looking for in the long run. We have 2 other branch offices that will need to be protected by this solution as well and I'm sure in the future we will be adding other branches to the scheme of things. Can anyone recommend any good security products that they've worked with that provides these functionalities?

What customization is better at intermediate CA (standalone CA) level than at issuer CA level (Enterprise CA)? May be something like application policy and issuance policy restrictions?

    - Kerberos key table file Hi All, We are using SSPI/GSSAPI for coding an application consisting of server and client. We know that the service keytab is stored in a key table file on the system where the server program is running and this keytab is extracted using the ktpass utility. We don't want to use key table file for storing service keytab as this is not that secure enough. I want to know the following : 1. Is there any other way (not key table file) of storing the service keytab on the system where the server program is running. for eg: the host service keytab (host/<host-fqdn>@REALM) is stored somewhere maybe a keystore on that host and not in a key table file. 2. Can we use the same store where the host keytab is stored. If so, can you please point me to the sample code or functions which does this. Thanks in Advance, Srini Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89542

I have created my CA server, configured my EFS recover template, but that leaves me with one question. When I request an EFS recovery certificate, the computer name is displayed in the summary page during the certificate request wizard. Does it matter which computer I create the recovery agentâ??s certificate upon as long as the computer is a member of the domain? Or does it need to be a certain computer in the domain such as a DC?

    - 802.1x, roaming profile, VLAN change Hi all, I have problem with roaming profile when the 802.1x authentication is configured and where there are 2 or more VLANs. If the machine authentication succesful, IAS will instruct the switch to configure the port to VLAN x. Then when a user logs on, IAS will instruct the switch to move the port to VLAN y. For other group of users, we set to VLAN z. The problem: the user won't be able to download (after logging in) and upload (after logging off). I notice that this is due to changing of VLAN on the switch: once the user logs on, the switch will quickly move the port to VLAN y, while the IP address of the PC still belongs to subnet of VLAN x. It means the PC cannot contact the server until it gets a new valid IP address (in the VLAN x). My setting: AuthMode --> 1 SupplicantMode --> 3 (based on http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServer/en/Library/8e74974f-c951-48ce-8235-02f4ed8e74921033.mspx?mfr=true) I tried to create: GpNetworkStartPolicyTimeoutValue --> 60 (seconds) (under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogon, based on http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;840669) but no success. Is there any way to delay the downloading/uploading the profile? So that the PC will have time to change the valid IP address before downloading/uploading the user profile. Thank you in advance.

    - My email address appears through search engine Although this may not be an appropriate forum for my question/concern, I am pleading for someone's suggestion or help to resolve my dilemma. Back in 2002 when I was a novice to on-line newsgroups, I posted several questions on the MS Newsgroup forum showing my actual email address. Several weeks ago I googled my email address and to my surprise it appeared several times on the following site. http://www.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/securityfocus/focus-ms/ I am not familiar with that site but it appears to contain both active and archived newsgroups. Since about 2003 it appears that the email addresses are being encrypted (if thats the correct term?) to possibly prevent mining of addresses. However, prior to that time the posters' actual email address appeared, including mine. There could possibly be thousands of actual email addresses appearing on the site which are being mined and used to spam unsuspecting victims, of which I may be one. I have sent the web site several emails in recent weeks requesting that my postings and email address be removed from the site, however, it has only been removed in one instance and still appears in two other instances. Recent emails to the site requesting further deletions have gone unanswered and my postings and address still appear for the world to see. Can anyone advise how I can get this matter attended to. Sorry for the long post. Thanks. Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89524

    - Eventlog Warning !!! WinXP SP2 Pro. Event Log Warning for both limited user, and priviliged user too. Windows saved user's xxxxx registry while an application or service was still using the registry. The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use. This is often caused by services running as user account, try configuring the services to run in either LocalService or NetworkService account. Now I know where Services are, and how to go to properties-general tab-log on tab, but I do not know which service to click on in the first place in order to configure services. I also do not see a Select User dialog box to specify a user account under the Log on tab. I hope someone can give me a detailed lead in this one.

    - Beautiful women, aged clones, and Ultimate Fighting Championship Friend, I'm always looking for good and intelligent individuals like you to visit my website, www.ChezBrandon.com , and it has pictures of beautiful women, information about aged clones, and a link to Ultimate Fighting Championship, a very good show. My name is Brandon, and I'm in my 20s, am a college student, and as lie detectors, both conventional and unconventional would show, I've never been sexually penetrated. Moreover, I could be shown pictures of X, Y, and Z, and it would show that I'm only sexually attracted to women. The Murders of Our Leaders in Government were Stopped. I, Brandon, can take lie detector and psychological tests, and I can go before a panel of truth detecting experts. I tell the truth. A mini-psychological test: 8 times 2 = 16, the world is round, not flat, and the year is 2006. Feel free to call me, my cellphone number is 503.740.0272 (United States based) and feel free to utilize a GK-1 voice truth detecting device too: >From Congressmen Bill Frist to John Kerry to Dennis Hastert to Hillary Clinton to John Warner to Ron Wyden to Gordon Smith to John McCain to Joseph Lieberman to Nancy Pelosi to Diane Feinstein to Ted Kennedy to anyone else who happened to be in the Congressional chambers during either a joint session of Congress or a State of the Union address from Masons to Skull and Bones members to Secret Service agents to pages to visitors to other good individuals, they all would have been murdered, all of their accomplishments stripped away, their earned wealth stripped away, their homes stripped away, their family and friends stripped away. Moreover, someone else would have been sleeping with their spouses. Elements of the Mossad, who wanted to bathe in the blood of our Congressmen as well as bathe in the blood of leaders around the world, and when they seized power they would, as confirmed by psychic vision and confirmed auditorially, "he's right; he's psychic," would outlaw most if not all organizations, including the Masons, and these elements as Victor Ostrovsky writes about in his #1 New York Times bestseller By Way of Deception are out of control, notoriously lie, and have a disregard for life -- I was able, thank God, to thwart the conquest of the USA and the world, and was able to thwart the murder of United States and world leaders, via a psychic vision of Senator John Warner and other Congressmen being choked to death by gas, which was confirmed auditorially from both ears, such as "He saved Congress," who they were going to kill "all of them,""how did he know that?" and "he's psychic" -- murdered my biological Aunt Gloria Atkinson, whom I loved very much, as she did of me, and there is a tribute to her on my website. Please, friend, be sure to barricade your bedroom door at night. I'm not afraid of aged clones or the attempted chopping off of my appendages (elements of the Mossad talked about chopping off my right middle finger and right ear, and 10 out of 10 of my toes, like my right middle finger have unique steeple designs). I'm not afraid of anything. I'll defend myself to the best of my ability, and I commit my life to saving the lives of men, women, and children and strengthening good organizations. I will always remember my biological Aunt Gloria Atkinson. Sincerely, Brandon Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89488

    - Trojan? Computer security issues Recently I was browsing the internet, and (I have Mcafee security programs) a window popped up saying a trojan was found, and blocked. I tried to close Internet Explorer when I saw this, but it wouldn't close for the next minute or so. I ran a virus and adware scan afterwards, but found nothing but the usual adware here and there, which I deleted. The computer has been running rather slowly since then, and so I opened up Windows Task manager recently. It showed the Processes menu, and didn't show the rest of the menu. All I could look at were the changing graphs of the computer's usage of space. When I examined these graphs, they showed the CPU usage going from 65-100% usage. I've tried many things to look at the rest of the menu of it, but to no avail. So, any suggestions as to what to do to find out what is causing this much space to be used on the computer?

    - Google Powered Search Engine for Security/eSecurity Community I am building a Search Engine exclusively for the Security and eSecurity Community using Google's Coop program. I would like to NOT include any vendor sites, but just index sites that are vendor neutral. Would this is be a good strategy or not? The URL for the search engine is http://www.xml-dev.com Here are my current guidelines for site inclusion 1) I will NOT include any vendor site (e.g. Cisco, Microsoft, Bluecoat etc) 2) I will check the Netcraft ranking for each suggested URL that I receive. The site has to rank in <50K to be included in the index. (e.g. http://toolbar.netcraft.com/site_report?url=http://www.securityfocus.com) 3) I will also make sure that the site doesn't excessive amount of Ads. For e.g. I will not include http://www.securitynewsportal.com/index.shtml As far the inclusion of vendor sites in concerned, I think if one is searching for some specific information (e.g. install guide) for a particular product they should probably go to the vendor website or google it. However if you researching about a technology, lets says IDS, you really don't need to see the vendor sites. They will, off course, say that their product is the best in the world. For e.g. search for "Full Disk Encryption" on Google, and you will see that DriveCrypt and WinMagic show up in the first 3 results. And they both claim to be "best in the world" :) And I have tried both, and they are not the best (to say the least)! ;-) Instead I would like to see what other sites are saying about these products or "full disk encryption" in general Note: I am looking for few other people to help me filtering out the website, and updating the index. Please let me know if anyone is interested. As always please keep sending your favorite URLs. I have tons of URLs in my email box, and I will catch up with them (and reply to the sender) over the weekend :) Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89475

    - EMAIL Scanning Error/Turned Off in Norton Internet Security (NIS) The following problem seemed to start about 3 weeks ago. The Anti Virus status window in NIS shows the status of email scanning as ERROR. It is turned off with no way to turn it back on. Uninstalling and reinstalling have not helped. A lengthy discussion with Norton tech support, not surprisingly, was useless as well. I just cleaned my Registry (WIN 2000), but that too made no difference either. The only other security product I am running is SPYWARE DOCTOR, but uninstalling that did not help either. I am now suspecting a conflict someplace, or perhaps even some as yet unidentified malware. Any ideas of a possible cause, or an approach I can take? Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89462

    - Found an unknown keylogger/ spyware named "MrvGINA.dll" Anyone heard of this? Found it while trying to correct my computer starting in "Administator" user mode, as opposed to my normal user profile. A log in window appears, which I believe is created by the spyware to try and phish passwords. When I tried to change the settings a warning stating "Windows Security and Fast User turned off. Uninstall program to correct. Finding MrvGINA.dll may help determine the responible program". MrvGINA.dll is in the sytem32 folder. Neither Spybot Search & Destroy nor Norton Internet Security have identified the file leading me to believe it is a new spyware/malware.

    - IE7 final and SpySweeper Ver 5.2.3 build 2120 There are numerous incompatibilities with the latest version of SpySweeper and Internet Explorer 7.0 final. These incompatibilities have finally forced me to uninstall the latest version and go back to SpySweeper Ver 5.0.7 build 1608. Here is a list of the most troublesome interactions: 1. Opening a second tab in IE7 takes about 5-7 seconds just for the tab to appear. I had previously said 3-5 seconds but it got worse. 2. After the 2nd tab opens it takes about another 5 seconds for "anything" to even begin to appear in the new tab. 3. When holding the ctrl key and clicking on a link, in most cases, the desired link would appear in the original tab. 4. If I had multiple tabs open, and I wanted to close the active tab, I would press CTRL & W, which should close the active tab only. Many times when I did this Internet Explorer would close down. 5. Outlook Express would take ages to open and make a connection to my ISP's mail server. 6. Many other programs just seemed to be taking a lot longer to initialize. All of these problems have gone away after going back to SpySweeper Ver 5.0.7 build 1608. The 2nd (and additional) tabs open instantaneously. The web information begins to immediately paint the page. CTRL & click on web links open a new tab every single time. CTRL & W closes the active tab "every single time". Internet Explorer 7.0 final has stopped crashing. I think I will wait until the next SpySweeper program update until I try again. The present version just has too many problems! BTW, Firefox has not been affected with the SpySweeper update. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

    - e-mail problems When I try to sign in to my hotmail account a window opens that informs me that I am about to view pages over a secure connection as I click on sign in to open my account another window opens informing me this time that I am about to leave a secure internet connection it will be possible for others to view information you send, if I do not wish to continue I can not access my messages. I am extremely concerned about this problem, I have been reading and looking for reasons and solutions on windows newsgroups but found nothing, I am almost computer illiterate and I am afraid that by having tried to solve the problem without the right knowledge I have check and uncheked, enable and disable and made a right mess out of my PC . I had enabled automatic updates but I feel that this problem started after I installed SP2, I have now uninstalled SP2 but the problem has not gone away, my homepage has also been changed to MSM Homepage and when I try to change it again it always reverts back to MSMHomepage, is it possible that my PC has been hijacked? Please, please help, thanks a million. Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89442

    - Is corruption of Hyperlinks possible? 1. Can something be embedded *in the hyperlink itself* which might cause immediate 'infection' of ones PC if it is 'clicked'? 2. Is there some way that a *third party* could interfere with a link - innocently posted in a messages - so that if a reader subsequently 'clicks' on the link (or even copies and pastes it into a Browser) - instead of being directed to a bona fide site, one might end up on, say, an 'infected' web site - a Spoof site in other words? Should the answer(s) be yes - exactly *how* might it done - clever use of Scripting? Is there a guide available from Microsoft to advise of how to avoid the pitfalls if either scenario *is* possible? Any guidance will be much appreciated. TIA David (XP Home SP2 and all Updates) Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89420

    - Mysterious Files? I have just noticed a series of files that have started to appear on my c drive each day. Today they are s1vo.i, s1vo.j s1vo.j and so on. The file sizes and times created vary. Previously there were some named s2ss and so on that I deleted. I also have a couple of TXT files with similar file names that when I open with notepad are copies of emails I have received. Could someone provide some insight to what these are?

    - stealth; good idea or bad; I have 2 different sources; who's right Well, I've heard some people say that having a "stealth" firewall is good, and some say it's bad. Two different views: Position A: Supposedly, according to the text beneath this, if a computer is not "stealthed", connecting to that computer, for example with a PING (I assume ICMP), a simple ICMP ping would send a "host unreachable" message back to the attacker. If the computer is "stealthed", it will simply drop the echo request, and no reply is sent back to the attackers' computer. That way, a "stealthed" computer will confirm it's existance. Thus being counterproductive. Position B: the "attacker" would receive a "host unreachable" message from a "stealthed" computer. Or would it not receive a "host unreachable" message, but something else, that will look like the same to the attacker ? For as far as I know, Steve Gibson from www.grc.com stands behind position B. So, which view is correct ? Maybe it's even more complicated, I'd like to gain some insight. Maybe firewalls can have different kinds of stealth. I don't know. That stealth is "out of spec" is not an argument for me. WHAT I SUSPECT, and I'd like to hear your views about that, is THAT THE INTERNET ITSELF is configured in such a way that if a "stealthed" computer does not respond to a ping or other attempt to establish a connection, the "attacker" would receive a "host unreachable" message. Thus making stealth sensible. Essentially position B. Below this the original article, that prompted me to do some investigation of my own (not very succesfull), and asking this question here. Insight/help appreciated. Quoting article" Stealth, when it comes to computer security, is when the computer (or other network equipment) does not issue any sort of reply to connection attempts, including ICMP echo requests (ping). I guess the idea was that if there's no response, they can't see that anything is there, and therefore you're "stealthed" from the outside world. For some reason, this was assumed to be a security enhancement because you cannot attack what you cannot see... Oh boy, is that ever wrong. "Stealth" doesn't mean you are invisible at all. Instead, it makes you stick out like a sore thumb. Here's a picture showing a would-be attacker and your computer behind a firewall. A simple "ping" from the attacker travels through the cloud, and to the router in front of your firewall. Next, the echo request gets to your firewall. A stealth firewall will simply drop the echo request, and no reply is sent back to the attackers' computer. So, you're invisible, right? Since there's no reply, there's no computer there, right? Wrong and wrong! If there really was no computer (or firewall) there, the router sitting in front would reply for you with a simple ICMP "host unreachable" message back to the attacker. The attacker would then know that there really is nothing there. The lack of this "host unreachable" message is a clear indication that something is there and it's dropping the packets rather than replying to them. A simple telnet connection will yield the same result. If the attacker attempts to telnet to your computer, and your firewall simply drops the packets with no reply (stealth), then the connection attempt simply times out. Again, this is not an indication that there's nothing there, because the router did not send the "host unreachable" message. With a non-stealth setup, a reply packet is sent, and assuming no telnet server is running, the reply will be a loud "no service here." If you shut your computer off, the connection attempt will also time out, but then the router will send the "host unreachable" message back to the attacker, so they really know that you're not there at the moment. So, being "stealth" doesn't really add any security at all, nor does it really hide you from anyone else. Anyone who wants to really know if there's anyone at a give IP address will have no difficulty seeing that you're really there because you are trying too hard to appear not to be. Since stealth is violating the normal rules of network connectivity, it makes you more visible, not less. " Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89403

    - changing local administrator password *securely* I've been asked to change the local administrator password on a number of remote Windows 2000 and Windows XP systems. I know that this can be easily accomplished in a number of ways: scripted with VBScript and run from my PC or from SMS, third-party tools like pspasswd, via the cusrmgr.exe resource kit tool, and so on. However, I'm concerned that these distribution methods send the password in the clear across the network. Does the cusrmgr.exe tool use any sort of encryption when changing the password of a remote computer? Is there some way of doing this change that doesn't involve something drastic like setting up IPSec on the entire network?

    - modem, router, firewall ? advice requested Well, for some time some "data" has been "leaking" through my router (supposed to have a firewall, which is confirmed by SOME tests), to my computer, where my software firewall catches it. I have been considering geting a 100 % stealth firewall/router. Including port 0, that my Sitecom router won't let me make stealth anyway. It doesn't have an official stealth option, you need to use a trick, but that doesn't work for port 0. (Which can be detected). Data passes through my modem to my router, and then to my pc. Today, it just occurred to me: would having a stealth router make any sense at all ? I really don't know how this works, but wouldn't scanners/computers just detect my modem (brand Arris, got it from cable company), regardless of what my router claims to be stealth ? My modem is directly connected to the internet, and for as far as I know it doesn't have a firewall. So it's really a technical question: can the mere presence of an active modem with an active router be detected by others on the internet ? Imagine I got a 100 % stealth router, wouldn't others on the internet detect me (IP address, basically static computer name and IP), by detecting the modem ? And does it matter in that case, whether my computer was ON or OFF ? Insight appreciated. Tag: Generic Host process for win32 services listening to port: tcp: 135 Tag: 89400

There are exploits that use 135. on the other hand, most IPs supposedly
disabled it.
The port is commonly used within a local LAN.
