    - Windows Updates, can I "back them up"? I have a computer that has just been upgraded from Windows98 to Windows98SE. I know that many critical updates are available for Windows98SE, and I have access to a couple of other computers with those updates installed. Is there any way to export these updates from a computer in which they are already installed and then install them onto another system? Alternatively, can these updates be downloaded from Microsoft in a format that lends itself to exporting from system to system (zip file or otherwise)? (i.e. download them at a computer with a fast connection, burn to CD, then install onto separate system). This other system only has access to a 56K modem and I would like to avoid a night of tying up the phone line. Thanks in advance for any advice on this issue. Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - McAfee Internet Security Suite VS Nortons NIS ? Windows XP HE I kinda hate to ask this question on here as I do not want to create a mile long posting as this is a touchy subject, but here goes. I have a neighbor that is not a PC person at all, uses Windows XP Home Edition mainly for Office applications and email, web research. They asked me what is a good "totally integrated" package for Internet Security. I tried to explain that I have had much better luck with many of the free packages that just do one thing at a time (ie Zone Alarm etc...) They also want Parental Controls. The only two total packages I can think of are McAfee InternetSecurity Suite 2004, Version 6 (nice price at least for $39) and Norton NIS. I am not a Norton fan ( I was when Peter Norton was around, but that has been 14 years) and the only thing I use from McAfee (used to be Neopoint) is the Visual Trace. Any comments on the "lesser of the two evils" ? Its been years since using either one of these for me and I don't have a good answer, althou am leaning towards McAfee. Dave L, if your out there...let me know, also they will be going to Verizon DSL in a few weeks. Thanks ! Tedd -- Tedd Riggs PDA Square Content Developer www.pdasquare.com Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - Using Firewalls and Antivirus at the same time I am trying to fix my problem of getting my computer hijacked with Spam, virus and other programs and needed some help. As most of you know, I do not like the UI from AVG, but the thing does seem to work. This is how I have it set up now for what I think will stop any problems, let me now what I left out. Firewall: Zone Alarm Pro, McAfee Personal Firewall Plus, Norton NIS, Anti-Ad's: Spybot, Lavasoft Ad-Adware, McAfee Privacy Sevice, Virus, AVG 6, Sophos, Norman Antvirus, McAfee Virusscan Pro, Norton Antivirus, IPE antivirus. Everything runs ok together, its a little slower on startup. What else do I need ? A hardware firewall ? I have looked for hardware firewalls and cannot find them. I use dial up. Might change to xp pro, is that firewall worth it ? Regards half_pint Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC! Tag: 46042

    - "Pack71.exe" Anyone know anything about "Pack71"? I got an email which appeared to an official Microsoft mailing in html format with Microsoft header and everything, from a sender called "Public Assistance". The text of the message read: "this is the latest version of security update, the "February 2004, Cumulative Patch" update which fixes all known security vulnerabilities affecting MS Internet Explorer, MS Outlook and MS Outlook Express as well as three newly discovered vulnerabilities. Install now to continue keeping your computer secure from these vulnerabilities, the most serious of which could allow an attacker to run code on your computer. This update includes the functionality of all previously released patches." The message had an attachment called "Pack71.exe" (106 KB). I am suspicious of ANY email that contains an .exe attachment. If it was an offical Microsoft email, why wouldn't the sender simply point the recipient to a web link to download the latest patch, rather than including it as an attachment? I did a search on the web and on Microsoft for "Pack71.exe" and turned up nothing. I went to Microsoft's Security web site, ran a security check for Windows, and it turned up 1 critical update that it needed (there was no mention of Pack71.exe). After installing the update, I ran the test again, the install appeared successful and it told me that "there were no critical updates to install." Anybody know of Pack71.exe or where on the web that I can get information about it? Sorry about the lengthy post. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, JA Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - Which Firewall pls ? I've read alot here about the importance of a firewall, then alot of other messages about problems after installing a firewall. Makes me nervious. What firewall vendor/brand should one use when there are so many out there? Had planned on Norton Security 2004 but see messages about problems people are having with that one also. Seems like an oximoron when you purchase something to help protect you but it only causes other or new problems. Welcome any suggestions on which top 2 or 3 brands should be seriously considered. thanks. Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC! Tag: 46040

    - Security Update 828028 As there is no answer at 1-866-PCSAFETY, I am posting my question here. I am running Windows ME. At first glance, the above patch does not appear to apply to me. However, in the technical details section it says "If file Msasn1.dll is present, this security update is required". I do have that file present. MY question is do I need to download this patch and, if so, where is the link to do so? Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC! Tag: 46039

I would like to create 2 different certificate templates that are NOT interchangeable. I would like to create 1 certificate template to be used for SIP/TLS and I would like to create 1 other certificate template to be used for EAP/TLS. What properties must be set on the certificate templates so that if I issue a certificate to be used for SIP/TLS that it cannot be used for EAP/TLS? And vice versa?

    - Mysterious instant message/http://www.wgutv.com/osama_capture.php?xi01 I received the following IM from my brother in law: check this out... http://www.wgutv.com/osama_capture.php? xi01 When I clicked on the link I was taken to a "WGUC TV NEWS PLAYER WAR GAMES UPDATE" page. I was prompted to install a "News Player" ActiveX control. I refused to install the control and asked my brother-in- law what he'd sent. He said he hadn't sent me anything. This seems fishy to me. Is there any knowledge about this (a Google search returned nothing)? To whom should I report this? Thanks, Scott Francis Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC!

    - MS Security Updates and Firewall We are an organization with about 800 network connected pc's that have access to the internet. We run Norton Anti-virus on all the workstations and the signatures are updated daily. We are behind a Cisco PIX firewall that only allows established connections back in.

    - OWA Nonsecure Content Bug Bites To whom it may concern I got a pop-up warning me of "nonsecure" content when opening an OWA e-mail that presumably contained scripting. I chose NOT to render that content. I was very surprised to find, however, that it *was* interpreted when I went to *forward* the message. That seems a little batty to me. Why wasn't it just a bunch of uninterpreted scripting (ugly but benign)? This implies that users can be cautious about NEVER opening mail containing scripting but once they try to forward something the OWA will ignore that caution. This is what some would call a BUG, and it could bite Thank you Frit Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC! Tag: 46021

    - MS Updates KB832894 Since installing "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (KB 832894)", I have had an intermittant problem logging in. My system (Windows XP Home Edition)is set up with 3 accounts - mine as Administrater requiring a password and 2 limited accounts for my sons not requiring a password. After installing this update I have encountered intermittant problems getting the password window to open when clicking on my name to log on. After a few days I determined that it happens when I had previously logged off leaving unread messages in my Outlook Express In Box. I then duplicated the problem several times confirming thaty is when I encountered it. I was able to "defeat" the problem by first logging in on one of the limited accounts, then logging off and proceding to log in on my account, which works. Has anyone else come across this?

    - Adware removal software blocks my cable modem access Hello all. I'm not sure what to do. I downloaded a spyware and adware removal software from cnet.com and ran it. It found almost 300 infected files that I erased. Subsequently, I couldn't connect online through my cable modem. The tech support at the cable company ran some tests. He determined that the adware removal software must have blocked the data channel in/out of my computer through a 'socket.' Does this sound right? If so, what do I need to do to fix this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated. I am a doctor and need at home access to the internet for work related purposes. Thanks so much. Paul. Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - ICMP echo problem Hi there. I'm using a Beklin 4 port gateway router which has it's on built in firewall, which over rides xps firewall. Now I've tested my security at shields up site and I am operating in stealth mode except for this problem. Ping Reply: RECEIVED (FAILED) - Your system REPLIED to our Ping (ICMP Echo) requests, making it visible on the Internet. Most personal firewalls can be configured to block, drop, and ignore such ping requests in order to better hide systems from hackers. This is highly recommended since "Ping" is among the oldest and most common methods used to locate systems prior to further exploitation. Now I contacted Beklin and they tell me that my router cannot be configured to stop this happening. What I would like to know is 1 Should I be concerned? 2 Can I be hacked even though I have the firewall? 3 Is there any software available to stop my system replying to the ICMP echo? As I've tried a couple of other firewalls including Zone Alarm and they did not stop the problem. Many Thanks Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS? DITCH THAT WINDOWS CRAP AND GO BUY A MAC! Tag: 46002

    - Digital certificates disappear after reboot Hi I'm using digital certificates in Internet Explorer under Windows XP. All critical and recommended updates installed. After rebooting the certificate I successfully install and use in my Personal store disappears. It can be placed in other stores (and remains after rebooting) but can't be used from there. I can re-import the key and use it - it stays in place even if Internet Explorer is closed and restarted. But it is gone after a reboot. Importing the key into another machine doesn't replicate the problem, so it doesn't seem to be key specific. I'm at a loss to know how to proceed. Any advice would be welcome.

    - ms04-007 IIS on 80 and 442 behind firewall Hi, I'm curious if an iis install running on w2k server is behind an firewall which only opens port 80 and ssl 443 to the world. Is this new Security vulneraability affecting this install to? I couldnt get this from the description on the microsoft site, tey really keep it general, see below. So main question: are webservers behind firewalls affected to? If only running port 80? If running port 443 SSL? Second, why is microsoft not a little more specific in whats vulnerable? Like iis on sll, ntlm auth or whatever, make a big list please, so i can see which production machines will need to be updated fast, and which can wait a few days. thanx, hjm ---from <http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security /bulletin/MS04-007.asp> How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability? Because ASN.1 is a standard for many applications and devices, there are many potential attack vectors. To successfully exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must force a computer to decode malformed ASN.1 data. For example, when using authentication protocols based on ASN.1 it could be possible to construct a malformed authentication request that could expose this vulnerability. Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - Orbit Explorer Does anyone out there know how to find and remove Orbit Explorer from my computer? I think I know how I invited this monster onto my computer; unfortunately I thought I was downloading something else and now I can't get rid of it. It's replaced my default search engine when searching from the address bar and I hate it. It's not in add/remove programs; I can't find it in any startup locations; I've tried replacing everything of it I can find in the registry (which I backed up first) with another URL and then I couldn't get any internet at all. Please help. If you know how to get rid of this please email me with instructions. I work in IT so I can follow instructions and I know how to edit the registry without ruining it.

    - Sarah's reply to half_pint. Must be a security problem, you got out of the bin half_wit stutters out. "my ISP is not cheap and they are selective in their customers" WHAT a total Joke ! You use Yahoo mail, yet have a very expensive and "Selective" ISP ? The only selectio that goes on is if you pay. I would guess then my ISP is selective also as it only provides us with DSL at 1.544MB in and 512 KB out. But I am sure your dial up is much faster. "Oh and another tip, try making your post more than 2 inches wide" Well moron, it is YOUR newsreader or Monitor that is causing this. It looks plenty wide on my NEC Multisync LCD at 17 inch. (and bozo..those are not cheap monitors) "at least the IP address looks reasonable" Funny bubble brain, lock at any of the CDO posts, they all have about the same IP that is a part of the IANA Blackhole (way above your head) "witty and intillegent on e)" I am not sure who you were talking about on this comment, but it sure is not you. You are a total dimwit, with no wit, humour or any form of intelligence. And you sure cannot spell at all nor know anything about grammer. "Hi half_pint imitator, you are not the real half_pint" Hello ? Is anyone in here ? What a stupid thing to say and do. You post with the exact same style of writing, grammer and poor spelling and also rotten temper and foul mouth if you are using Outlook Express to post or when you are on CDO. It is pretty clear to me the "two people" are the same Oh and I almost forgot, since you have the worlds best and most selective ISP, you might wake them up and inform them, or maybe it comes from you, that your OE/IE are antique " X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000" Try something that is a bit newer (if you know how to download anything other the games and MP3's) Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1158 is a bit more up to date. "say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery you didn't even copy my sig file properly" Now that one is another big joke, you emails are all different except you cut and paste far to much. I sure have not seen a standard "sig file" on your trash. The best part, who in this world would want to imitate you ? Maybe a Monkey or a Jackass might. But people copy other peoples style because they are unique, intelligent and they want to better themselves. Nobody wants to imitate a low life little troll like you. That would be going pretty low for a person. So little boy, go play in the closet, make sure you take your Lithuim each day for your BP2 problem and try to keep those underwear clean and dry. You will feel better. Sarah Comments from before still stand. Yes it does look like our little friend gets around the | newsgroups and posts whereever the browser lands. I say | Sarah, you have the little dimwit figured out rather well | I would say, but you are much too nice to this little | twerp. However since he most likely does have his share of | mental problems, we should be understanding and wonder why | his mother lets him have access to things like a PC and it | seems that his medicine needs to be monitored much better. | Sounds like a classic Manic Depressive person to me ( now | called Bipolar 2 to be correct) or maybe just a little kid | that has far to much energy (ADD ?) or anger to be allowed | in public. Well I hope his Mum can show him how to click | on the scan button, this should help wth AVG. Hi half_pint imitator, you are not the real half_pint (the witty and intillegent on e) you are a cheap imposter, although they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery you didn't even copy my sig file properly (which can often be found at the top of the post for some unknown reason. On and if you want to do a real impersonation I suggest you get an account with my ISP so that at least the IP address looks reasonable, mind you my ISP is not cheap and they are selective in their customers. Oh and another tip, try making your post more than 2 inches wide, I know that must be difficult on you cheap monitor. You were ammusing at first but now you have used both of your jokes you are just making a big fool of yourself. -- --------------- regards half_pint Tag: TIRED OF ALL THE BS?

    - Microsoft Windows Security Patch I'm writing about a problem that I've had with the latest Microsoft Windows XP security patch (the one that was just released today, February 10, the "critical update" patch). I installed the patch and restarted the computer as prompted. The computer rebooted and the "Windows XP" logo flashed onto the screen. After that, however, the screen went blank, with a few colored lines on it (sort of like a TV station that's gone off the air). I tried to use GoBack to revert my computer, but I got the same result...now I can't even log onto Windows! Did anyone else experience this same problem after installing the security update?
