    - Hackers stealing accounts? Recently my hotmail account was stolen. By this I mean that my account has been entered into on a number of occasions by a person other than myself, my password has been changed and my secret question and answer have been changed as well. I don't want to know how they did it. Quite frankly, at this point, I don't care. What has got me rattled is that this person (whoever they might be) is taking control of my electronic life, emailing my personal contacts at will in the guise of being me, and generally causing a great amount of distress and dischord in my life; and I want it stopped. Is there anybody out there who has any idea how to stop this happening?? I'm running an old Internet Explorer system with Windows 98, if that helps. Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64234

    - What is WPA? Hi All, I would like to discuss this with all of you. What exactly is WPA and How it is different from WEP. Do we need something extra for the products which are accessed usig WEP, and if it had to implement WPA. How can we do that? For eg: Wireless projector has WEP standards in build however what has to be added if we would like to implement WPA instead. Thanx for your co-operation in advance.

    - How nosey are ISP's Hi, I just got an email from my new ISP about how low priced internet service could be with them if I subscribe. I already have internet with them, of course, so why do I need to get internet service with them.It was sent to a Yahoo email address I have & was personalized in the sense that My last name was shown on the offer. Weird thing is that I never gave them (or at least I dont remember) and 'alternate' email address when I signed up with them (done by cd). 1-How did they get my yahoo email address 2- Do they or all ISP constantly monitor what programs we use, email addresses we have,etc??? Ive only had this ISP for 1 month. It is people pc. Does anyone have any ideas?? Perhaps one could trust the ISP but just how far can they go? Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64219

    - cracking local admin account I have an employee who apparently has a way of cracking local administrative passwords. I just learned of this and he has thus far been using this trick "for good" (e.g. to by-pass corporate buracracies that impede productivity.) Regardless, I've asked him to cease this practice. However, I'd like to know if there's a way to make sure he's no longer able. The problem is that I don't know how he's done it except that I was told by a coworker that a floppy disk of some sort was invovled. I realize that's scant information to go on, but I was hoping that someone might be able to offer some guidance on shoring up the security on my PCs. thanks, spence Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64207

    - Smart-Security SmartSecurity Hijacker on your Desktop In case anyone is having this problem - your desktop goes black with an ad "Warning! You are in Danger" that leads you to a firm called Smart-Security, there is help. I don't have the address but go to either TheTechGuide.com forum which has a very long discussion on the problems and solutions to this extremely nasty hijacker. (Just do a search for smartsecurity or smart-security) Also, you can go to CompleteTranslations.com, which also has a step-by-step solution. (A link to the solution in the bottom lefthand corner.) I'll try their solutions tonight on my home computer. Hopefully, they will work. Smart-Security itself also claims to have download that will correct the problem, but I don't know if I trust the company that put the hijacker into my system to fix it. Personally, I'd sue them, but I think they're based in the UK. If not, legal letters will be sent in the near future. Good luck. Mark Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64203

    - Policy Changes and there effects If you change a password length requirement from 5 to 8, will this force changes for anyone who's password is currently under 8. Or if you change the time from of password changes from 90 days to 60 days, will this expire passwords. I don't believe it will force anything until they expire or they change them themselves, but i cannot find any sort of docs on this matter. Thanks for any help or direction.

    - Spyware/Adware took over my desktop background The other day because of some confusion between Norton Internet Security and AOL, I very mistakenly turned off my Personal Firewall for a minute so I could get logged on. Well, a spyware or adware virus entered my computer. I believe that through either Norton or PestPatrol, I got rid of most of the virus, since my computer seems to be working fine. But what wouldn't go away was an ad that apparently lies on top of my normal background. The ad is the usual "Warning! You're in Danger . . ." and at the bottom of the ad is the phrase "Removal Instruction." Despite running Norton and PestPatrol several times, the ad remained. So I check out it's Properties and found that it was saved as AOL picture in the Windows Desktop. I went into the Desktop file and found an AOL picture that was created at the time the virus entered my computer. Figuring that was the ad, I deleted it. After re-booting, the ad was gone, but in its place was blank white screen. I can still see my icons, and they all seem to work, but the background is a glowing white, which isn't easy on the eyes and may be something that's hurting my computer. The company that caused the ad, I believe, is called SmartSecurity and claims to be a software that erases images and documents from your C drive so that no one knows what you're doing. Has anybody ever seen this before, and more importantly, does anybody know how to return my screen to normal? Thanks for any help, Mark Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64188

    - Can I use the Microsoft Security Update CD on a Windows98 SE Thai I have two IBM 586 233 mhz computers, one is running Win98 US version and the second is running Win98 Thai version. I have used the Microsoft Security CD that came out in Feb of this year on the US version and it ran ok. My question is: Can I use the same CD to run on the Win98 Thai version? The Thai version was purchased in Thailand and comes from Microsoft Thailand. I am concerned that the US Microsoft Security CD could cause problems, can someone give me some advise as I want my Thai children to be able to use the computer on the Internet. I have tried going to the Windows Update site with the Thai version and it fails the check for current update software, will not load current version and will not let me install any updates where as the US version works ok. Please, any assistance would be appreciated. Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64169

    - using personal signatures for remote authentication I have a personal signature from a national authority which I can use to sign e-mail etc. As a software consultant I run my own web+exchange 2003 server (actually SBS2003) and often want to use e.g. OWA, remote desktop and maybe even VPN from remote sites. I would like to implement more security than just username/password, and a neat solution would be to utilize my personal certificate, which I could install on the computer I use at the client site. Can someone refer me to articles on how to do this? Not using smart cards but where the cert is installed on a client PC. Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64153

    - different protocols thru double firewall My client develops software in-house, and is using a double-firewall where internet browsers talk to webserver 1 on port 80, which forwards the http request to webserver 2 on a different port via a firewall. Webserver 2 contains the application logic (webserver 1 is essentially just a proxy). Webserver 2 may talk to application servers on the "LAN" through another firewall. Both these web servers are in DMZ and not part of a domain. There is a perception that it is less secure for webserver 2 to communicate with an application server on the LAN via HTTP (e.g. a web service), as opposed to a different protocol from the one that the original request comes in from the browser. Is there any justification for this concern, or is this just "security by obscurity"? There is a tendency to prefer e.g. .NET remoting between the web server and the app server instead of a web service - and I would to hear some opinions if that preference is justified.

    - question on computer access I don`t know if this can be done....I would like to be able to tell if anyone has accessed my PC at home in my absence, I am not looking for key loggers just a basic something or other that lets me know someone has used it or that they may have installed a programme. I currently use Spybot and AVG for antivirus stuff and have a firewall and run ocassional `other` virus checks. I am sure computer is being used as some settings have changed and a couple of things haven`t worked when I have returned, when I ask no one used it. I don`t want to stop them using it but if I can prove they have then maybe they will be more careful and stop mucking around with it. My next step would be do deny them access which I am reluctant to do,I just want to get it under control. any help appreciated. thanks Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64140

    - VBS Security Vunrulbility Has anyone heard of thido you know if its true and weather to disable what it says? > Opening the wrong E-mail may soon be enough to empty your bank account. In an effort to woo security-conscious computer users, "phishers" have come up with a new technique to harvest online banking details without requiring users to click on a Web link and enter personal information on a submission form. This new form of attack, directed specifically at users of online banking, runs a script when a phishing E-mail message is opened, according to E-mail and virus security company MessageLabs Ltd. The script tries to rewrite the host files on the machine of the recipient. On subsequent attempts to access online banking services, victims will unknowingly be redirected to a fraudulent Web site designed to capture their log-in details. Alex Shipp, senior antivirus technologist at MessageLabs, says such developments only make it harder to defend against phishing. Traditional phishing attacks rely on tricking the user into following a Web link and then entering personal information. "This one is much more insidious," he says. Some 3% of those targeted by phishers reveal personal information, according to a study released in April by research firm Gartner. Shipp adds that this new technique, which has only been detected in Brazil, is probably being tested for wider deployment. That's what happened with first-generation phishing attacks that were tested in Australia before being directed at users in the United States. Only systems that have enabled Windows Script Host are vulnerable to this attack. WSH lets users run VBScript and JScript scripts within the Windows operating system. Sophos plc, an antivirus company, offers instructions on how to disable WSH <http://www.sophos.com/support/wsh.html>. "Most businesses these days probably have this disabled," Shipp says. "But home users are more vulnerable." Tag: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64074

    - OH BOY - NEED SOME HELP! Can any one tell me what this looks like? Are you thinking what I am thinking? Any thoughts are appreciated? ENVIROMENT SERVER:NT 4.0 6A PROXY 2.0 Exhange 5.5 SP4 Antigen Virus Software Here is a snapshot from a PF proxy log. I have changed the internal and gateway ip addresses for security reasons. Just imaging tat 111.111.111.11 is the internal address of the NT server in question, and 100.100.100.10 is internet gateway address. I am seeing this occur periodically. Also, our proxy suddenly crashes, and brings down all the services, thus preventing any Internet Access. I have to start the services again.

    - Deleting messenger How do I disable MSGR 4.7 from my system at work? I try to in the 'control panel' - delete 'windows programs'; however, it seems to not work. I try to delete the actual file program icon; but it won't let me delete the file there either? I have a feeling that it is connected to another program - possibly outlook? I'm not sure. My concern is this: I will be leaving from the office soon, and want to ensure that nobody will have access to msgr/my inbox. when I open messenger, someone can click '___@hotmail.com' - 'click here to sign in' and anyone can have access to my email.

    - Warning: flawed security on webhostin server ehosting.ca (same as mecca.ca) Hi NG, Anybody of users having a web site on ehosting.ca (mecca.ca) server can read anybody else's source code, asp files, connectionstrings and all. I could. I tried to warn the administration of this flaw but they not only don't understand their problem but belligerently defend their incompetence. No wonder they don't warn their customers about it. Because, first, they didn't even realize it and, when I told them about it, they blamed me for having tried to hack. They think security means only preventing script execution rights on user account folders and have been giving "Read" access to "Everyone" in order that their system could get directory listings!! Later on they said that they have made a typo, and that they're giving read rights not to "Everyone" but to "IIS-User" system user-account. It doesn't change the fact that the users can read each others' files. After my warnings, they might have improved the security level on the host, but from their record, you can't be very secure. So be warned. After all I felt forced to cancel my membership (on Nov 06, 2004 see below). When I created the FSO page back in 2000 the idea looked pretty new to me; you write down the virtual path to a dummy folder on my site and can read the directory listings. Then you double-click on a subfolder and get its listings. Double-click on a filename and (if ASCII) it opens in another page, where you can edit and save (in theory). And I put it on my free site at brinkster.com as a demo (www11.brinkster.cm/Nersessian/, registration is needed to see some files and their sources; only English part is more or less functional. I'm trying to set up a new site). Now this type of application is being used on many servers. Brinkster.com gives the warning that the free sites are insecure, so does 1asphost.com where the FSO doesn't exist at all on free sites. All is done to encourage paid membership. Here, on ehosting.ca, with paid membership, users have same or less security as on brinkster.com for free hosting. So when I uploaded this file, I was 100% sure it would not allow me to go above my own folder, but it did, successfully. Below I include my response to one of the administrator's message to me (after I also got a "Hello there" message from the biling@mecca.ca informing me that full refund in that company means less than 40% of the membership fee!!): //*********************************************************** What you're doing endangers your clients' and their users' private information. I suggest you to read Microsoft's public web server security guidelines again. Your interpretation of those guidelines is very peculiar, to say the least. 1. Absolutely non-important that other users cannot execute scripts in my account. If "Everyone" can read in my account, the real hackers will be "executing" my users' identities and their credit card numbers on their bank accounts, not scripts on my account. I hope you can figure out how they get that information, once they can read in your clients' files 2. Even if the system has to read in account folders, there is a user called SYSTEM. You could give it read rights. Not to Everyone. 3. I don't think that you even have a 'Clients' (or whatever) user group for clients, or know how and for what to apply it, if you give Everyone read rights. 4. You are not warning your clients about the security hazards their and their users subject themselves accepting your hosting services. Although this email will efficiently help you improve security on your hosting server, I don't expect to receive apologies or gratitude from you. But I will think it over, if I will warn your clients about your incompetence regarding their accounts' security and if to take further action. Regards, AN Mecca Administration <admin@mecca.ca> wrote: Hello, Well "Everyone" write access is disabled on c:\clients folder and you cannot use a web based script to write data to other clients' folders. We must enable "Everyone" read access so that other server components can read the directories and files listng. Keep in mind that we had followed Microsoft's public web server security guideline closely when we implemented the security structure few years ago. If you want to have a very secured server environement, please consider our dedicated server hosting. Also keep in mind that according to TOS, no subscribers are not allowed to hack into our systems: 3.1 The Subscriber will not hack, break into, access or use or attempt to hack, break into, access or use any part of the Services, its content and/or any data areas on Mecca's server(s) for which the Subscriber has not been authorized by Mecca. However, should you decide to call off our hosting service, please confirm your decision before November 08, 2004 (Note that you can only request the refund within 14 days of purchase). Cancellation request submitted after this day will not be counted within our 14 day money back guarantee period and thus, no full refund MINUS $15 administration fee (plus any applicable cheque handling charge) will be issued.

    - 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: **** Big Thank You! *** Tag: 64062
