    - 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: OE blocks Tag: 50692

    - What's the real scoop on wireless security? 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? For example, in a suburban- type housing development, what is the range for someone to hack in? Should I be concerned about my neighbors or someone passing by on the street? Or is it wider, like a few blocks? I plan to install WEP, but I'm interested in what the vulnerability is without it. Thanks, dag Tag: OE blocks Tag: 50665

    - Effects of Port Blocking on Apps Hi, I am considering blocking certain ports on my workstation that are well known to be used by viruses. For example I could block 2283 which the W32/Dumaru.ad virus listens on. I don't expect to be running any servers on this port However, some programs like Internet Explorer, occasionally use this port to go outbound From what I can tell, Internet Explorer, Outlook, MMC, and other apps seem to just tr ascending ports and if they can't connect on 2283, they'll connect on 2284. Is that true? Also, will blocking 2283 or other non-registered ports (i.e. i am not talking about port 80) for all communications have bad effects on any Windows/Microsoft programs Thanks Tag: OE blocks Tag: 50581

    - Help with Possible Virus/Trojan? My Win98se machine has started to act very strange during the last week. I have the Microsoft Office Toolbar on the top of my Desktop which includes shortcuts to MSWord, Notepad, Windows Explorer, etc. When I try to use the MS Word shortcut icon on the Office Toolbar, Sygate Personal Firewall tell me that "Microsoft Word For Windows is trying to connect to crl.verisign.com (64.94.110.12) using remote port 80.....". I instruct Sygate not to allow the connection, then everything slows down and it takes a long time for Word to load. When it finally does load, everything has slowed down and it takes forever to Open files, Save files, etc.. I have never gotten this warning from Sygate before and why would activating Word from a shortcut on the Office Toolbar, cause it to try to connect to the internet? I get the same Sygate message when I try to launch Windows Explorer from the Tool Bar. Sounds like some kind of Virus/Trojan/Hijacker has infected my computer. Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Mike H PS: I've run Norton Antivirus, Spybot, Stinger, and CWshredder. All are current. They don't find anything on my computer. Occasionally when I'm on the internet I get the "About:Blank" window on the bottom of my screen. I don't know if that has anything to do with the current problem. Tag: OE blocks Tag: 50564
