    - What is SYSTEM in Properties>Security Please forgive my ignorance for asking this question. First off, I have Windows 2000. No matter what, any of the Properties>Security I look at, I see Administrator and my user account (as expected) but I also see a SYSTEM on all of them. I know what Administrator, Group, and all of those are if I see them here, but SYSTEM I do not know, even after looking at Help to see what it is. When I try to remove it, it says "Cannot remove because it's inheriting permissions from the parent." I understand why I can't remove Administrator, but why can't I remove SYSTEM? Better yet, WHAT or WHO is this SYSTEM? Thank you to whoever replies! Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58523

    - Google toolbar I'm considering downloading the Google Toolbar (mostly for the pop-up blocking feature, although I always use Google 100% of the times for search engine purposes as well). However, the memory on my computer is maxed out to the limit and between anti-virus, firewall, Internet Explorer, and the rest, I'm running low on memory. Does Google Toolbar take up a lot of memory? Also, does it REALLY work in stopping most pop-ups? (I know it won't eliminate 100% of them, but 90% would be nice!) Plus, can I customize it to accept certain pop-ups from specific websites I've chosen? If Google Toolbar isn't recommended just for the pop-up blocker alone, is there another free but reputable pop-up blocker out there that works? Thank you. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58521

    - HijackThis at version 1.98.1 HijackThis 1.98.1 New stuff: * Changed the MD5 hashing module to use the MS Cryptograpy library, making it 11 times faster! * Fixed O18 items not being removed. * Fixed stupid IniGetString() error #5. * Fixed stupid MakeBackup() error #75. Added a bunch of items to the whitelists of O18, O20 and O21, thanks to FBJ. * An entry to Add/Remove Software list to uninstall HijackThis is now added at first run (the Uninstall button in Misc Tools still performs the same function). Internal Update feature has not worked on version 1.98 and perhaps it also didn't work on version 1.97.7. (It's been so long, I've forgotten.)

    - Possible IE Bug? Recreated on two different machines. I'm not sure why this happens, but when ever I log into Gmail, the Gmail browser starts getting the new page redirections from other IE windows. I have been able to recreate this on two different machines: Step 1: Open a browser and navigate to: http://www.riskglossary.com/articles/standard_deviation.htm. And leave it open. Step 2: Open a new browser and log in to Gmail. Step 3: Click on Standard Deviation or Variance on the first browser and on my computer these pages are opened in the Gmail browser and it doesn't scroll down to those sections of the page (as it really should). Good luck, GuessWho PS. only reply to the news group. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58486

    - How was this "attack" possible? Last night, I was chatting with my friend in a private room created in www.chat-avenue.com and I was minding my business, just chatting with my friend (I've known her for two years so I do not suspect her of anything). There is an option to allow pop-ups for private messages from others, but I didn't check this option (since people like to bug me with stupid private messages). All of a sudden, another browser window that was black opens and I get a prompt through Internet Explorer asking me if I want to allow an ActiveX (I have it set in my internet zone to prompt me if an ActiveX control or plug-in wants to run). I obviously said "no" and I was confused as to why another browser window was opening on me when I didn't click on any links and I was just chatting with my friend. When I clicked "no," the browser window started jumping around and the first, regular chat room window (chat-avenue.com) was "frozen," meaning I couldn't close it, interact within it, etc. I also couldn't close out the jumping browser, it was just floating around the screen and stopped me from doing anything to it. I then engaged the Internet lock in my ZoneAlarm firewall (cuts off all Internet). I was then able to close out this other offending browser window and return to my chatting. After looking at my History, I found whatever this was to be www.monkeydoo.com/online/cool4.php (PRANKED, you are an Idiot). My friend said it happened to her too except she saw the words "YOU ARE AN IDIOT" in the black browser window, whereas I didn't (I guess because I denied ActiveX from running?). Sorry for the long post, but two quesions: How, with Windows 2000 and Internet Explorer completely patched and up-to-date through www.windowsupdate.com, and with my ZoneAlarm firewall, was this person able to "attack" me by allowing this monkeydoo.com browser window to involuntarily open up on me and wreak havoc? I have to assume it was sent by someone else in another room because I had no other browser windows open except for the chat room (chat-avenue.com). Second question is: what harm could have been done by this? (Of course, I ran Ad-aware and an anti-virus afterwards and fortunately, my computer came up clean.) For what it's worth, the chat app used for chat-avenue.com is DigiChat 4.0.3.1 (Digi-Net Technologies, www.digichat.com). Thanks for reading this far; any replies/answers appreciated!

    - Creating Automatic enrollment of User Certificates Hi I am trying to setup our Windows 2003 SBS Server to use L2TP. I have been able to set it up using MS-CHAP V2, but I want to use EAP_TLS authentication with locally installed user certificates. I want to set-up these certificates to be automatically enrolled. I have followed the steps outline in: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsSe rv/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp? url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/pro ddocs/en-us/sag_CS_userauto_example.asp But when I try to issue a new certificate to issue the created template does not exist in the list of templates. In the creation of the template there is a step to ensure that the template is published in Active Directory. Now my Forest and Domain are still running at Windows 2000 Functional Level. I suspect that this may be the cause of the issue, but I can not find confirmation of this in Certificate Services documentation. But I also I know that automatic enrollment of computer certificates works. Thus can anyone confirm the requirement of raising the domain/forest functional level for automatic enrollment of User Certificates. Is there another cause to this issue? Any other tips related to Certificate Services and my setup of EAP-TLS authentication of VPN users is most welcome. Jose Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58434

    - Making a folder private? I am running Windows XP Pro. And my hard drive is formatted as NTFS. I followed the instructions below on how to make a folder private. When I got to: "On the Sharing tab, select the 'Make this folder private so that only I have access to it' check box." That line and checkbox are grayed out. The folder I am trying to make private is in MY DOCUMENTS which is one of the folder areas that this option should be available per the instructions below. Can anyone help? Thanks. ======================================================= INSTRUCTIONs FROM MS HELP AND SUPPORT CENTER: To make your folders private Open My Computer. Double-click the drive where Windows is installed (usually drive (C:), unless you have more than one drive on your computer). If the contents of the drive are hidden, under System Tasks, click Show the contents of this drive. Double-click the Documents and Settings folder. Double-click your user folder. Right-click any folder in your user profile, and then click Properties. On the Sharing tab, select the Make this folder private so that only I have access to it check box. Notes To open My Computer, click Start, and then click My Computer. This option is only available for folders included in your user profile. Folders in your user profile include My Documents and its subfolders, Desktop, Start Menu, Cookies, and Favorites. If you do not make these folders private, they are available to everyone who uses your computer. When you make a folder private, all of its subfolders are private as well. For example, when you make My Documents private, you also make My Music and My Pictures private. When you share a folder, you also share all of its subfolders unless you make them private. You cannot make your folders private if your drive is not formatted as NTFS. For information about converting your drive to NTFS, click Related Topics. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58432

    - 275.275.275.275 I've a problem. When I get on the internet, my computer indicates a spyware has taken over my computer. But when I click on disconnect (I have DSL, Verizon's version, on a Windows XP Home Dell 8500 computer), it doesn't indicate it any more. Secifically, I click Start, Run, then in the box I type CMD, which brings up XP's version of the DOS. I then type in ipconfig /all, and then this problem surfaces. When I'm off the internet, it brings up in the subnet mask, 275.275.0.0. But just as soon as I get on the internet, the subnet mask, under a PPPOE DSL connection, brings up 275.275.275.275. I've tried everything that some computer experts have suggested, including running AdAware, Spy Bot, CWShredder. And I have PestPatrol, and Spysweeper installed also, and running. But no luck. Still I have this computer acting this way. I've ever re- installed Internet Explorer. But no luck. Anybody got any suggestions? Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58422

    - URGENT: error in latest windows update cripples ability to use frames In a nutshell, the update distributed this morning makes it impossible to write to a child frame after the domain has been modified. This is crippling a number of internal tools we have that are based on IE6.0. We have the domain name in both parent and child set to "att.com" (when both come from servers "xxx.att.com"), and when I try to execute var d= content.document.open();d.write('xxx'), where "content" is the name of the child frame, I get a "permission denied" error. This was not happening before the update. This is a CRITICAL error in the update, and I need to know (i) if there are plans to fix it and (ii) whether anybody knows of a workaround.

    - New spyware/hijacker - Sodhell August 01, 2004 (from http://www.netrn.net/spywareblog/): There have been a lot of search engine hits to [http://www.netrn.net/spywareblog/] for "sodhell", so [Suzy of netrn.net] decided to do some checking to find out what sodhell is. This forum post describes pop-up windows to sodhell.com and trying to entice you to click an OK button on an activeX Download ([Suzy of netrn.net has] since cranked IE up to HIGH in all zones). Another forum post says: My aunt just called and said she's having trouble with her computer because http://www.sodhell.com/ keep popping up talking about some survey crap and she said that since it starting she can't surf the net anymore... Another forum post: A computer opens Internet Explorer on login and goes to www.sodhell.com. This is not the default page for IE and IE is not in the Startup folder anyway. It happens every login. When it first happened McAfee detected the virus JS/keylog-briss.ldr each time but this no longer happens. I have scanned the system with AdAware and SpyBot and fixed the problems but the "sodhell" problem continues. Ater running HijackThis and removing the recommended offending files, the problem was solved in that case. [Suzy of netrn.net] got brave and went to the sodhell site to see what was up. The main index page has a line of text on it, "mimo u smell" (strange I know) and [Suzy of netrn.net] got screenshots of everything. Apparently the offending page is the sodhell/survey.html page, which tries to install two plug-ins, which [Suzy of netrn.net] refused. [Suzy of netrn.net] did get screenhots of all the pages' source code which is very interesting. There's a line with freecash.xxxcashbar.com. Since [Suzy of netrn.net doesn't] know javascript, [she's] not sure if it's an installer or exactly what. [She'll] have some code- wise folks check it. [She'll] make another post about it when [she has] more info. If you arrived at this page seeking help because of sodhell, please go to [Suzy's] forum at http://spywarewarrior.com. DO NOT post help requests or HijackThis logs in the blog comments. They will not be answered here. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58388

    - SpywareNuker Sues Symantec http://www.netrn.net/spywareblog/ July 28, 2004 Right now this is a Spyware Warrior exclusive as far as I know. I was notified that Trekeight, the company responsible for SpywareNuker, filed a lawsuit against Symantec, the makers of PC security products including Norton Anti-Virus. Since September 2003, Symantec has targeted SpywareNuker as adware. http://sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/adware.spywarenuker.html Trekeight has filed the complaint, which can be viewed here: http://www.spywarewarrior.com/files/Trekeight_v_Symantec.pd f (PDF), with the US District Court in southern California. Many people have claimed that SpywareNuker, a spyware removal program, actually installed spyware, but I have never seen any proof of that claim. Eric L. Howes tested SpywareNuker and sent me the results, which I blogged about previously. SpywareNuker is listed on the Suspect/Rogue Anti-spyware Programs page with notes documenting his findings and recommendations. Stay tuned for more on this story. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58361

    - Software Company to End Pop-Up Ad Deluge (AP) - A San Diego company has agreed to stop bombarding computer users with Internet pop-up ads to advertise its ad-blocking software, avoiding a court battle with the Federal Trade Commission. D Squared Solutions LLC, which was created by two college students, reached a settlement Wednesday with the FTC, which had filed a civil suit against the company last year. D Squared agreed not to send pop-up ads using the Messenger function enabled on many Windows operating systems; such ads do not require an open Web browser to display. The company also won't sell ad-blocking software any longer, and it is barred from sending other ads unless users can choose not to receive them. The company's founders, Anish Dhingra and Jeffrey Davis, do not admit wrongdoing and do not face any penalties. The FTC's legal case against D Squared, one of the first to address pop-up ads that have become a common Internet marketing technique, was seen as an attempt to limit an often-intrusive form of advertising that exploits technology built into Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)'s Windows software. The government alleged that using Messenger, D Squared was able to send pop up ads every ten seconds in the form of small dialogue boxes that usually appeared in the middle of the computer screen. This function was initially designed for network operators to send systemwide messages to employees. The FTC said the practice was a hassle to consumers and misled them into thinking there was nothing they could do to stop the ads. Attorneys for Dhingra and Davis claimed the pair were not trying to extort consumers with their ads and only intended to send one a day to computer users. Lawyer Anthony J. Dain has said the ads are "annoyances you have to deal with in a free society." Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58360

    - Get a LEG UP on spyware! Are you sick and tired of coming home from a long day at work, turning on your computer, and finding MORE spyware and adware? Now, you CAN be notified of new spyware/adware, whenever, wherever, you go... Pull the plug on adware and spyware and stay NOTIFIED with the latest version of this free tool...introducing Quad- aware! It's simple! A small incision is made into your quadriceps, where a small beeper-like device is inserted.* When Quad-aware scans your system--including removable drives--for the most common types of advertising spyware and safely removes offending software, you get a tingling feeling in your leg that TELLS YOU that your computer has just been cleaned of offensive spyware/adware! The convenience of having the program notify you regardless if you are at work or on vacation is phenomenal! Currently, the utility detects small ad programs from Komet-Kursor, Sighdoor, Doubleclit, EverAfterAd, and others. Quad-aware features an interface as well as safeguards for users who may not be comfortable with the tingling notifications in the leg. Because many ad-supported programs won't function if you remove their ad modules, you may occasionally want to overrule a tingling alert to remove one of these components. One other neat feature: it lets you search for new reference files automatically by hitting your thigh three times! Quad-aware STAYS updated when YOU want it to, from the comfort of your office or car. As many of us know, "spyware" refers to programs that are embedded in applications to report information to advertisers. These programs are included in shareware and freeware because that's the only way some cheap developers can pay their bills! If you don't want any part of this-- and feel that staying home just to run an app to see if you have spyware--you should definitely consider downloading Quad-aware! Quad-aware is free for noncommercial use only (you only pay for the quadriceps operation of inserting the device that notifies you of Quad-aware's actions). Convenience, value, dependibility...what are YOU waiting for? Download Quad-aware NOW! http://www.QUAd-aware.net *Not recommended for weightlifters, track runners, or any sport requiring excessive leg work. Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58359

    - Norton System Works After installing Norton System Works software on my computer, of which is running on Windows Millenium, I learned that System Works will cause Outlook Express to run slow. It gives a Microsoft web address where you can get a fix for it, however, if I do that, then the cost is $35.00 which is a little ridiculous since the software was only $47.00. Have I been ripped off by Norton or is there some simple fix to the problem without me having to pay an arm and leg for it? Hilton Tag: MS_DCOM_RPC_BO Tag: 58326

    - Norton Firewall Settings w/ XP Home Running XP Home (ICF disabled) on an E-Machines T1742 to a DSL connection. Cleanly installed NPF 2004 and the only way the firewall functions is by turning off the firewall part of the application, including the Trojan blocker! Deleting all of the pre-set rules under Personal Firewall -> Advanced -> General plus putting on "low" all slider controls makes no difference. Symantec want a thieving $40 US per technical help call on top of the purchase price. Am I doing something wrong or have I just wasted my money on NPF 2004? Any clues anybody? Thanks in advance.
