 - OE message on some attachments in Outlook Express Hello! I noticed in the Outlook newsgroup that in some cases e- mail with attachments, the attachement is blocked or not accessible. Outlook express displays a message saying something to the effect: "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments" and lists the attachements. What gives? I am wondering if it is a Norton product problem, because in some cases the files that I have been sent come from a very secure site. Thanks Rolf Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40777

 - 292 MPV Warning This popped up on my computer: Privacy Vulnerability Detected (292 MPV Warning) ..."your internet activities are being recorded." It somehow made itself become my homepage, which I altered back. How did it appear on my computer in the first place? Will it come back? Is it truly from Microsoft Windows and legitimate? If so, what are the ramifications of it appearing on my computer? Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40774

 - Firewalled-XP cannot change password to NT4 domain Recently I enabled the Firewall in XP LAN connection and notice that most times user cannot change their passwords. They will receive "The system cannot change your password now because the domain yyyy is not available.". Our server is running NT 4. I found on the Knowledge-based article 324141 which is not true in my case. This is what happen. The users logged in and received a prompt telling them that their passwords will expire in 14 days. So when they choose to change their password now, typed in the new password, then the above prompt appears. However, they are not the same as article 324141 where the password expired and the system has locked the users out. Am I missing something? anyone knows what I can do here? Do I have to apply a patch to the NT4 server to allow connection from a Firewalled XP LAN connection? Thank you. Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40771

 - Help me to understand headers I've received some SPAM, which had the following received lines in its headers (bottom two only shown); Received: from c-24-9-246-141.client.comcast.net ([24.9.246.141])by BFLITEMAIL-KR4.bigfoot.com (LiteMail v3.03(BFLITEMAIL-KR4)) with SMTP id 24Nov2003_BFLITEMAIL-KR4_223300_73868345; Mon, 24 Nov 2003 20:59:36 -0500 EST Received: from [16.30.46.104] by c-24-9-246-141.client.comcast.net with ESMTP id 36360197; Tue, 25 Nov 2003 11:53:43 -0300 I'm trying to discover whether the first received header is false (in order to make me think that the IP address 16.30.46.104 was the original sender). How can I tell if it's false. What is the significance of an IP address which only appears in square brackets (like the first line) and one which is also within curved brackets (like the second ([24.9.246.141])). Is the first one false. Any help much appreciated Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40767

 - SUS Question Does Microsoft remove old versions of critical updates from the patches offered for syncrhonization to an SUS server, or do I need to be sure I don't "approve" both the old and the new versions? If I do approve both the old and the new version, how can I be sure that the old version doesn't overwrite the new version, for example, if I had installed the new version manually? I am particularly thinking of Q824146 (MS03-039), the patch for blaster, updated for welchia, and Q823980 (MS03-026) the patch for blaster without additional welchia protection. If I approve the update "MS03-026: Security Update for Windows 2000 (823980), 11/14/2003," and deploy it, how do I know that I'm getting 824146, not 823980? Do I need to be concerned about this, given that the update is later than either 823980 or 824146? Thanks for your repsonse. As you can see, this could be an important question for anyone.

 - fake Microsoft emails and Yahoo Mail Most of the fake emails go to my Bulk folder which is nice but sometimes 1-2 get into my Inbox, assumedly because they have a new domain name. Is there anything I can do besides just keep classifying them as spam? Sometimes it overloads my mail too before I can delete them. Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40753

 - inetinfo.exe sucking up cpu -- what is it. what to do? Hi, Almost all of my cpu usage seems to be sucked up by inetinfo.exe. I'm running Win2000ProSP4, which ran fine for years until today. I used to run McAfee antivirus, but after my subscription expired, I couldn't get the update to install. Since then I've been relying on MailWasherPro to block flaky email and greater care in what I install. Does anyone know what inetinfo.exe is. I tried to stop it using TaskManager, but TM said the process couldn't be stopped. I'm running a search on the entire system for that file, but since the search is being starved for cpu resources, it may take a day, maybe more, to find it. I'd appreciate any suggestions about how to get info on this process or how to deal with it. TIA, Richard Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40738

 - Ntoskrnl.exe is sending UDP message Ntoskrnl.exe is trying to send a UDP message from my PC using port 137 (NETBIOS-NS Browsing request of NetBIOS over TCP/IP) or 138 (NETBIOS-DGM Browsing datagram response of NetBIOS over TCP/IP). This started immediately after upgrading XP to SP1. Is this because of the XP upgrade or something sinister? Is this normal or should I be concerned? Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40736

 - hacktool.iis.exploit I have a Windows 2000 Server SP4 and patched with all security updates as of Saturday November 22. IIS is running on this machine. Monday, received a Norton AV message that idq.dll was infected with hacktool.iis.exploit. Subsequently, several other files (4) were also found to be infected. All were reported to be quarantined with real-time scan. A couple of them have the tftpxxx file names. We searched for information at that time on this particular Trojan and found nothing anywhere except an item on Symantec that says that it is covered under their latest definitions. Tuesday, we had an email application running slow. We found nc.exe (which we believe to be netcat, port scanning util) running the cpu pretty hard. We couldn't run a manual scan of NAV because the local drive was full. It isn't a big drive but it wasn't full before. We were able to map the local drive of this computer from another and run a scan from the second pc to the first and it found two infected files that Norton left alone. So we took the server offline. We ran NAV in safe-mode and nothing was reported. We are also now able to run NAV from Windows and nothing is reported. This was done with no network connectivity. We are guessing that after the Trojan infected the machine, it installed a tftp program and ran netcat. After that we don't know what else could have happened. I'm leaving the questions wide open. What would be our next plan of action? What should we look at to determine what activity was done? Thanks for your time. pepe Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40733

 - How to deny users plug USB Storage devices? I want deny my users to connect USB storage devices. Windows permits users, even non-administrators to plug USB flash devices. You can modify file permissions on usbstor.* files inside %windir%* (3 files) and deny acces to every registry entry where the "USBSTOR" string is present. Before doing this you must uninstall any USB flash device. I've try this configuration locally and works only when you remove all permissions, even for SYSTEM accoun. I don't know how to deploy it through domain policy or login-script and of course, I don't want to remove SYSTEM account permission over any registry key or system file. There's any solution to that question (3rd party software not accepted for answers :p) Thank you. Juanma -- Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40728

 - Dazed and Confused Recently I upgraded Microsoft/xp to Service Pack 1 plus some other critical updates. After the SP1 install had finished a reboot was necessary. When disabling the network adapter (before reboot), I received a message that said I could not disable because something? was still connected. I pulled the network cable and shutdown. After rebooting and plugging the network cable back in, the connection was reestablish. However, somehow the ICF firewall had been deselected and turned off. I disabled the network adapter, reestablished the ICF firewall, enabled the network adapter and all seemed fine, but... Later I notice traffic leaving my system and going to one specific IP address within my ISP's network. Thankfully, this traffic was being dropped. Note the following dates and time: Nov 1, 22:14 - System Restore shows a checkpoint for xp SP1. Nov 1, 23:36 - First occurrence of this outbound traffic. Since, then I have installed a third-party firewall and have gathered the following info: The protocol is UDP and the source & destination ports are the same - either 137 (NETBIOS-NS Browsing request of NetBIOS over TCP/IP) or 138 (NETBIOS-DGM Browsing datagram response of NetBIOS over TCP/IP). This traffic always occurs immediately after enabling the network connection to my ISP. It also occurs periodically while connected. The associated application program is ntoskrnl.exe. Please advise! Today while looking at the Event System Log file I came across a 1 year old Warning: "The protected system file c:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll could not be verified as valid because Windows File Protection is terminating. Use the SFC utility to verify the integrity of the file at a later time.". So, I ran the SFC utility. This generated a number of System Information log entries. I have 5 files with bad or no signatures which cannot be restored. The files in c:\windows\system32\ are: ctl3d32.dll mfc42.dll oembios.bin oembios.sig oembios.dat Any help greatly appreciated. PS. NAV/2004 scans do not detected any viruses. Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40714

 - Our 2000 Server was compromised and it has all the security patches. A client of mine has a Windows 2000 Server running that was just compromised. Housecall (online scan) identified HKTL_SFIND.A / BKDR_RCSERV.C & BKDR_IROFFER12.A as actively running. After brief review it appears as though hacker utilities such as serv-u ftp, sms.exe, scan1000.exe, winmgmt.exe, sqlck.exe etc. were loaded and used for their benefit. We have/had the following services running that could have been exploited: SQL std. port, Terminal services admin mode, and inetpub svcs. I checked just to see if there were new updates to windows etc. and there are not any. This concerns me because we have other servers running with the same configurations with all the patches/updates etc which leads me to believe they are also vulnerable. If anyone has any information as to who to contact, who to provide information to about new exloits, how our system may have been exploited etc please let me know. We are preserving the hard drive for inspection if necessary because we feel the system was compromised beyond repair. Several system files look like they were replaced with the hackers version and thats just from a log file, there is no way to be sure. Also, the scan1000.exe tools output was piped to a log file and they were scanning for port 1433 on random ranges of IP's (not ours) which leads me to believe that they probably came in through SQL port if they are trying to find more. This may be a new SQL exploit. I ran this SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition') and this is what was retuned fyi: 8.00.760 / SP3 / Std. Edition Thanks, Scott Tag: Zone Alarm Tag: 40695

 - Pop ups gone wild Please help! Ok, here's the story. I let my daughter download Kazaa on a computer with Windows ME and I think we started to get some pop-up annoyances, though not terrible. At some point, I was on the computer and saw a Windows dialog box that said the computer was becoming overwhelmed with pop- ups and did I want to install a pop-up protector. I am not an idiot who believes everything he sees but this appeared to be an official windows dialog box. To my knowledge, I successfully downloaded and installed that program, though I may not have been successful loading it. Does anyone know if Windows sedns this kind of dialog box? Anyway, I noticed that, sometime after that, it seemed like the pop ups got worse. I then noticed that my default internet site was not yahoo and so I changed it back, thinking that would probably solve the problem But it is not. The only program I am using, fight now, is Norton AV and as it is scanning I am still getting pop ups. First of all, with Windows ME, can I restore my registry to what I had say three days ago and undo all the Kazaa installation and possibly phony anti-pop up installation I've done? Secondly, I see a bunch of programs that I don't know what they are. Can you folk, tell me which are likely to be the problem causing the pop ups? They are as follows: Bargain Buddy, BDE, Eboles Moe Money Maker, IMesh, Imesh ads support, Lycos Sideserver, MySearch Bar, New net domains 5.48, p2p networking, peer points manager, sanity media master, Top Text Ilookup, Viewpoint media player (remove only), Web Hancer Customer Companion, webHancer Survey Companion.
