    - Dialer infected media player Hi, About a week ago I became aware of a dialer trying to dial out every time I try to use the media player. "Zone Alarm" flags it "This program (i.e WMP)has changed..." but clicking "no" when asked if I want it to access doesn't prevent it trying to dial out. The dialer appears on my dial-up propeties as "Axis" and in the WMP program file an "application file" "wmplayer" says it was created on the 14th. The digital signature says "click to enter ltd". Any ideas how I can get rid of this ? (Spybot S&D) hasn't had any luck. Many Thanks. S D P.S I use Windows ME. Tag: Unauthorized use Tag: 50791

    - security logging in guest account my guest account on windows xp prof. has some kind of problem. on logging into guest account , a message pops saying " Security Logging on this system is full. Only the Administrator can fix it. " on clicking "ok" it comes back to the startup screen. so, its like i am not able to login into the guest account. I checked the security logging options when the ICF is turned on and i found that the log file was not enabled. So there is no chance that the log file has exceeded its limit. Have tried restarting but without success. And the wierd part is below the guest account I see " 23 unread messages" . dunno where that came from...have never seen that before. please help .

    - UNAUTHORIZED E-MAIL ACCOUNT USERS MY QUESTION AND CONCERN IS THIS: RECENTLY SOMEONE I KNOW HACKED INTO MY "HOTMAIL" E-MAIL ACCOUNT, HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? NO ONE IN THE WORLD KNOWS THE PASSWORD BUT ME, AND TO CHANGE THE PASSOWORD YOU NEED TO ANSWER A SECRET QUESTION THAT I MADE UP AND KNOW THE ANSWER TO ONLY. I NEVER ACCESSED MY ACCOUNT ON THIS PERSON'S PC, NOR EVER TOLD THEM THE PASSWORD. THIS PERSON EVEN TOLD ME THAT THEY DIDNT EVEN HAVE TO KNOW THE ANSWER TO THE SECRET QUESTION TO OBTAIN MY PASSWORD OR CHANGE IT. HOW IS THIS POSSBLE! THIS IS FRUSTRATING BECAUSE A PASSWORD AND SECRET QUESTION SHOULD BE A PRETTY GOOD MEASURE OF SECURITY AND PRIVACY, BUT THIS INCIDENT PROVES OTHERWISE AND A POSSIBLE BREECH IN SECURITY. IS IT POSSIBLE TO POSE AS A USER WHO FORGOT A PASSWORD AND HAVE MICROSOFT E-MAIL THE PASSWORD TO ANOTHER ACCOUNT(ALTERNATE), I TRIED TO SET UP AN ALTERNATE ACCOUNT BUT THERE WASNT A LINK TO DO SO IN THE PASSPORT PROFILE, CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN HOW THIS MAY HAVE BEEN DONE BECAUSE I KNOW IT MUST NOT HAVE BEEN THAT HARD, AND THIS SO-CALLED POTENTIAL HACKER SAY THAT THEY CAN DO IT AGAIN TO ANY ACCOUNT I MAY OPEN!!!

    - DCOM access try after connecting the internet Hi All, since days, I am seeing the following event listed in my eventviewer: Access denied attempting to launch a DCOM Server. The server is: {00020906-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} The user is Unavailable/Unavailable, SID=Unavailable. This happens always shortly after I establish a connection to the internet. Anyway, which programs I have open. I tried to open nothing else than the computermanagement [just to see/wait for the event]. It comes always. I created a new useraccount, just to be sure, that this does not depend on settings in the profile. Result:It happens with each user, even new ones. A full virus-scan gave no results. Spybot found no problems. BTW, the mentioned DCOM server is MS Word. The event happens nearly each minute and floods my eventlog. But I am afraid, that there can be more problems. I do not know, how to anaylze the cause. Could someone please help? I use Windows 2000 Server, english, SP4, all securityfixes, McAfee netshield with latest engine and signature files. MS Office and the Net Development is also installed, as SQL Server and Webserver. Everything patched fine. Noone can log on to my box, I have removed the everyone access from the most relevant settings [like access this computer from network, shares etc.] Best regards, Manfred Braun (Private) Mannheim Germany mailto:_manfred.braun_@manfbraun.de (Remove the anti-spam-underscore to mail me!)

    - My modem is getting hijacked Im running Windows XP and IE6.0 - and Im usually behind tight firewalls - now I surfed "outside" the wall and somehow - someone tries to hijack my modem. What happen is that the number My modem is calling has been switched out and replaced with a number in the Cook Islands!!! - and there are several different numbers that keep switching between themselves - all in the Cooks Islands I.e 0068 837015 My user name has also been switched and is now ConnInts10 - and also the password is switched Additionally the Normal-Dial-Up-Window has been altered so I can not see the username and password as I normally do. All of these changes I can easilly put back to correct settings and use my system as usual... All of this wouldnt bee to bad if it wasn´t that after every call-up-session a new Cook Island number turns up and I have to fill in all my info manually again. I have used the latest version and the latest referencelist of Ad-aware 6.0 - it has removed a few things from my systems I also have run the latest edition and update from Symantec. Despite that this anoying piece of shit keeps coming back.. How can I stamp it out?? Tag: Unauthorized use Tag: 50692

Many articles make reference to the vulnerability of going wireless (in my case, a wireless 802.11g-enabled PC to DSL router connection inside the house). But what are the numbers?
