    - KB832894 won't stick on XP Pro For the last couple of weeks, my Automatic Updates have popped up to install KB832894. I allow it to install, but a few minutes later the icon pops up saying that I need to install it (as if I never did). I have gone to the support site and physically downloaded it as well, but get the same result. Consequently, it does not show up under "currenty installed programs" in the Control Panel at all. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. John Cavanaugh Tag: This page can not be displayed Tag: 47286

    - Continued attacks I just reinstalled (clean install) Windows XP for the 5th time. Although I'm taking precautions, it appears that these are not enough, because everytime I connect to the Internet (particularly with Earthlink) I am hit by a particularly nasty virus (most recently all my profiles were completely corrupted). I will now wait until I receive my service pack CD's by mail. Two questions: Is it possible to be specifically targeted (although I can't possibly imagine why), how is this done, and how do I protect myself? Also, I will be reinstalling Norton AV 2004 and running Live Update, downloading Spybot again, and once the latest CD has been installed (patches through 10/03), running Windows Update. Any recommendations on which order I should do the above? Tag: This page can not be displayed Tag: 47229

    - Suspicious instances of NOTEPAD.EXE running. Hmmm. Hi I have been having a hellish couple of days attempting to clean my computer of all the (expletive deleted) that my brother has succeeded in installing (adware, spyware, malware...) but I am encountering a recurring problem: Norton Antivirus refuses to run Autoprotect and quits if I try to run a scan or LiveUpdate. Also, something is triggering the execution of NOTEPAD.EXE constantly, but it only shows up in the Process window, not as a notepad window. Although I have succeeded in briefly halting this irritating state of events, it soon reverts to the old way. I ran a full scan in NAV when I got it running - it came up clean. But this morning, the problem has returned I have run AdAware, Spybot Search and Destroy and HijackThis! to look for any suspicious stuff, deleted a load and it still won't fix it HELP ME! Please!

    - Why would Outlook remove ALL of my attachments? Does anyone understand why ALL of my attachments from e- mail received in the past have been removed?

    - need help in virus scanning Hi all. My ISP offers pop3 (or whatever its called)-But I hardly use the email account I have with them to access email. The email address that is linked to this account is on our web page. But I have not given that out to anyone. I have a yahoo address that I have on the business card if anyone wants to email us something. Anyways, I got an email in outlook express with this ISP address from someone else who has the same ISP address. I am afraid to open it.It has a paper clip next to it so I assume it is an attatchment. I right clicked on the properties and it is 36k in size. I did not open it but saved it to my desk top and rt-clicked on it to scan with avg. Nothing was found. Then I scanned it with an expired norton 2002 and nothing was found. Am I doing the right thing by scanning it this way and is it accurate and safe to open it since the results came back negative. Of course I updated my AVG prior to scanning. is ther an easier way to scan email prior to opening them. should i open this one? please help Tag: This page can not be displayed Tag: 47176

    - GatesSpeak by the bucket load Remarks by Bill Gates, Chairman and Chief Software Architect, Microsoft Corporation RSA Conference 2004 San Francisco, Calif. Feb 24 2004 "Microsoft was founded with a vision that software could do some amazing things" "I'm going to give you an update. It's not something that's a completed work, because not only Microsoft but everybody in this industry has a lot we need to do before we get to the point where this is not what stands at the top of the list of what would hold us back" "We have people who are connecting machines to all these wireless networks, and the wireless network is trying to be made secure, even though they're not controlled by a central IT department" "it's very hard for people to plan fo. Knowing exactly what has to be done, that's been far too difficult" " I'm very optimistic about this, even though there are many years of work ahead of us" "there is a lot of work done on security by experts who are totally benign" "the maturity that we're getting in terms of the systems, the updates, the methodologies, these are exactly what we need to take care of these other threat models" "And so it's the dollar loss that comes in -- that gain level or the national interest piece -- that we can get to by making sure that none of these types of people can get in and attack these systems. And so the learning curve is being driven forward very rapidly by the visible portion of this activity" "Now, our approach, of course, has two main buckets: the work we're doing at the technical level, both on our own and around industry standards, and then the work we're doing in terms of education and awareness and working with governmental entities" "A lot of the dollars are going into those technical buckets. Those technical buckets are very important, and I'm very optimistic about them" "but we'll never get away from the need to have both of these pillars, to be working with customers, setting up Web sites, setting up auditing tools that can make things easy for them, and raising the level of awareness of these issues so that somebody can go through exactly the steps to secure their systems. "There are a lot of architectural principles. We talk about SD-cubed-plus-C; that's secure by design, that's security-aware features" "Clearly, there's more to do, but that is one of the metrics that shows us that we're definitely on the right track" "the tactics we go through to make sure that all of those things come together for those systems vary according to the audience" "If somebody is sending around a mail thing and they're clicking on executable files" "The idea that you can look at that machine before it comes onto the network, see if it's up to date" "As soon as we got good enough to handle that in an auditable, totally predictable way, people saw this as the software that would solve that problem" "we'll get even the corporate applications to get out there and not require any privilege escalation to either install that application or use that application" "An area of particular innovation is this idea of scanning source code and finding areas that might be security vulnerabilities, things like checking the size of the buffer, checking the size of an on-stack data structure" "Things come in across the network, using open ports that are there for benign reasons" "There are attacks through e-mail attachments and Web downloads" "I want to talk about spam. Spam is both a nuisance" "So we're putting out, as an industry proposal this week what we call caller ID for e-mail. And it's a very specific technical proposal about how you can make sure that the domain is authentic. We've actually taken *our* we have some *patents* around this, we're saying are *royalty* *free*, available for everyone to use, the ones that relate to the fundamentals of this, and so we're talking with other ISPs and mail providers, and we believe that by this summer, with the *right* *agreements*, we can put this in place" "When I meet with developers, one of the key messages is the opportunity created by the Web services standard. You've probably seen the momentum building behind these, the acceptance of XML as the rich data standard" "what WS Security does is it creates a protocol-based approach that's not subject to spoofing or replay attacks" Windows is certified at what's called EAL level 4, and of all the popular operating systems, that is the highest level of certification." "hardware level things to verify that the operating system you're running, that nobody's tampered with that" "making sure that, at the OS level, secrets can be maintained" "Anyway, the recent advance is that the offline scenario was one that required innovation on both sides, us working with RSA to understand, okay, how do you get the information onto the machine so that it still can be used but used in a secure way when the network is not there and available" "Microsoft Research has done so many different things in the security area I had to pick which one I thought would be very interesting, and what I picked is a really neat piece of work called the Tamper Resistant ID Card" http://www.microsoft.com/billgates/speeches/2004/02-24rsa.asp Tag: This page can not be displayed Tag: 47152

What version/SP of IE are you using? What errors do you get when you try to
go to www.paypal.com , etc? Can you ping www.paypal.com from a command
prompt, and even if it doesn't reply (I'd think it wouldn't), get an IP
