    - Problem with ACT email after installing security updates I hope that someone can help. I've upgraded to Windows XP Professional which was installed over Win 98. I also upgraded to ACT 6.0 which promised better email features. I couldn't get ACT to accept Outlook Express as the email program so I used the Act Email. Everything worked fine for several weeks until after I automatically installed some XP security updates. Now the ACT email program will not start-up with certain "bad" emails in the inbox. As long as there are no "bad" emails in the inbox, the program functions fine. When bad emails appear I have to manually delete them from the box with Explorer. The Outlook Express program functions fine on its own. I've tried the Act helpdesk in France with no help. They say that it has to do with the updates for Windows XP. Can anyone please help?

    - Problems With Windows Update We are trying to update a number of our servers by accessing the Windows Update Site and then asking it to "Scan for Updates". In most cases, machines check okay showing 33%, 66% e.t.c and then come up with a list of patches which are needed. However, a number of machines seem to reach 100% of the check in a matter of a few seconds, and it then says that "no updates are available at the present time". Now I know that some of these machines are not running the latest patches so somewhere along the line the check is not working correctly. Has anyone else come across this ? If so, what can I do to rectify this problem ? Thanks Mark Williams Tag: can't install security patch 823980 on Windows NT 4.0 server Tag: 26825

    - not able to create socket ,coz of insufficient user rights I am developing a web server in ASP.NET. There are 2 web services in it. I have a C++ (unmanaged) Library whose functions are being called from my C# code with DLLIMPORT attribute. Problem: My C++ library has two functions. Both of them are opening sockets using Winsock. One function is opening socket like (1) sockRaw = WSASocket(AF_INET,SOCK_RAW,IPPROTO_ICMP,NULL,0 ,WSA_FLAG_OVERLAPPED); and the other function is (2) m_Socket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); I login to my this site from different machine in same network domain(LAN). I login with my windows user ID and password of that system. I am able to login with administrative rights as well as with user rights. All the users are of the system where the webserver is running. My problem is : When I login with normal user ID password API (1) is failing, I am not able to debug this code. But it is failing. Whereas in case of administrator every thing is working fine. Or in other word I would say that WSASocket is failing in to create socket because of insufficient user rights. This is very strange for me , I don't know how it is happening so kindly help me or suggest me what I should do. IIS settings: I set my Directory security to Basic Authentication. System: I am using WINDOWS 2000 service pack 3 IIS 5.0 Dot net 2002 with Framework 1.1. Thanks in advance abhijeet Tag: can't install security patch 823980 on Windows NT 4.0 server Tag: 26824

    - Firewall and SYN FLOOD Hi all, I am running home network behind broadband DSL router, and a few days back I post a question on the security newsgroup about syn flooding problem and got some advice about installing Antivirus and Firewall software on my computer. Now I 've got the trial version of Norton antivirus and Kerio firewall (recommend by an MVP on the security newsgroup). The virus scan found nothing positve about adware or trojan horse or anything else on my machine. The problem I always have is that whenever I access Microsof Website for a while the SYN Flood log will appear on my broadband router's security log. This happen at the same time when I get no response back from the page I request from Microsft Website. I check the Firewall monitor and saw that there are quite a few connection made by IE to TCP and UDP ports on Microsft Site. I normally surf only a handful of site on the Internet using my second partition of WIndows 2K (not the one I use for my work). This installation have all the latest patch for Win2K and IE6 installed.The problem of unable to get the response back from Microsoft Website will last for a short while and then I can access it again. It does not seem to happen with other Website but may be because I surf Microsoft site more than others. This problem does not happen when I try it on my Redhat Linux installation using Mozilla (at the moment I am writing this message using Mozilla). Could it be possible that this problem is related to IE 6 or with security setting of syn flood protection on my broadband router. I can't remember that I have this problem when I was using IE 5.5, if this is to be the case How would I get back to IE 5.5. I also don't want to reinstall my Win2k. Could anyone provide a good suggestion on what to do and possibly explaine what may have cause such a problem? As this will be greatly aprrecited.

    - Remote Procedure Call error? DCOMX.EXE, RPC.EXE, RPCTEST.EXE on your computer? Possible hacking. I've seen a number of people ask this question today, so I hope this is helpful to someone: FYI, the presence of the files Dcomx.exe or the other files mentioned below along with a "Remote Procedure Call" or TFTP popup message on your system are signs you may have been hacked by a tool such as Autorooter. [TFTP.EXE is a normal file that comes with many versions of Windows, but it should usually not be running on most systems.] To fix this, you need a firewall [even a free one such as www.sygate.com or www.kerio.com], to install all the latest Microsoft service packs and patches from www.windowsupdate.com, check your firewall logs to see who has hacked you, and install and run an antivirus with the latest updates that detects this thing [ www.grisoft.com is free antivirus], or submit sample files to your antivirus vendor if it does not detect this thing. I do believe there may be new variants of Autorooter that possibly have not yet been fully discovered. Unlike an automated event like a worm, this event may indicate that someone personally ran a tool against you and may have done things to your computer. You can find out if you are infected with Autorooter or something new that hasn't been discovered by going to one of the scanner sites below. If nothing is detected, that's pretty interesting, let us and your antivirus company know: http://housecall.antivirus.com [my preference] OR http://security2.norton.com Once your computer has been hacked, these are some things I might recommend doing are here: http://securityadmin.info/faq.htm#hacked http://securityadmin.info/faq.htm#re-secure http://securityadmin.info/faq.htm#harden This Trojan has been given several different names by various anti-virus companies: RPC Worm (F-Secure) Downloader-DM (McAfee) Autorooter (Panda) Worm.Win32.Autorooter (AVP) Backdoor.IRC.Cirebot (Symantec) References: http://www.europe.f-secure.com/v-descs/rpc.shtml http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100524.htm http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/backdoor.irc.cirebot .html http://news.com.com/2100%2D1009%2D5059263.html http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-026.asp http://www.microsoft.com/security/security_bulletins/MS03-026.asp http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823980 Here are some signs of infection, though these do not necessarily match all the variants that might be out there: "Signs of infection: - the existence of one or more of the following files: rpc.exe rpctest.exe tftpd.exe dcomx.exe lolx.exe worm.exe Signs that a network is being attacked: - traffic on port 445 to sequential IP addresses. Signs that an attack has succeeded (allowing a remote shell and downloading of the backdoor): - port 57005 open; - an ftp [tftp] connection on port 69." I hope this helps.

    - MS03--026 strange versions I have two odd situations where I am not able to patch the computers in question. Both computers show up as vulnerable using the ISS utility. (1) Windows NT for dec alpha - I tried applying the normal WinNT patch as it said for "all versions" but it said it was the wrong version. I realize that Microsoft doesn't support this version anymore and no patches have been available for this machine for years. My question is, would special code need to be written that would run on a dec alpha computer to take advantage of this vulnerability? (2) Computer with French (Canada) version of Windows XP - The English language version of the patch says wrong version. Is there a workaround, or is this just vulnerable until a French language version is available, or is it available and I just am not looking in the right place?

    - nvidious I downloaded the full XP updates package, including the huge nVidia update (May 2 2003). Right, I know I'm stupid, trusing Microsoft, but I had heard about these new security problems ... ... So, first MS insisted I needed to upgrade my IE browser, even though I have 6.0. Finally got through to the page where they scan my machine to see how they can do the maximum amount of damage. The download was slow, even though I am using a cable modem, but I was doing other things, so I didn't care. Of course, it being via IE, it wouldn't tell me the download speed. The installation took an hour or so. Every ten minutes I would check to see if anything was happening, and the little bar had crept along a bit more, so I knew something was happening. Finally done -- restarted machine. Now have beautiful 4- color 640x480 17" LCD screen. Can't change the ettings. I can just see those MS people chortling: "Boy, I wish I could see this guy when he finds out our download update trashed his video settings and won't let him change them." Does anyone know anything about this? I'm sure I'll figure it out, but _why_ would MS send an update that makes things worse? Why should I have to try to find my drivers CDs, try to figure out whether it is an nVidia or Viewsonic problem, or XP problem, or an act of a vengeful god, or ... ...? I'm sure there must be a way to find out more about the nVidia download, but of course MS doesn't want to let me simply look at a list of downloads; I'm supposed to go through the process of having it check my machine for needed updates, which of course tells me I don't need any, and so I can't even find out what they did to me without digging into the web site (or maybe they won't let me do that either). Has anyone else had this problem? Anyone switch to Macs because of problems like this? I'm going to put Win98SE on my laptop so I can get some work done, and then play with my nice powerful desktop XP machine when I have more time to waste.

    - 821557: Security Update (Windows XP) I'm not sure why, but when I install this update 821557: Security Update (Windows XP), I have problems with Outlook 2002 and Windows Explorer. Basically, when running Outlook 2002, it freezes when trying to send or even create a new message. When trying to open a Windows Explorer window (windows key + E), it freezes Windows. Luckily, I was able to figure out that this was the culprit and remove it. Is there going to be a fix for this? Thanks.

We wanted to make sure that if you were not aware of this bulletin and corresponding patch that you take a moment to go to http://www.microsoft.com/security/ security_bulletins/ ms03-026.asp to find out if you are running an affected version of the Windows operating system and get the specific information as to what you need to do to apply this patch if you have not already. Although we encourage you to pay attention to all security bulletins and to deploy patches in a timely manner we wanted to call special attention to this particular instance as we have become aware of some activity on the internet that we believe increases the likelihood of the exploitation of this vulnerability.

In order to minimize the risks of such vulnerabilities to your computing environment, we encourage you to subscribe to the Windows Update service by going to http://www.windowsupdate.com and also subscribe to Microsoft's security notification service at http://register.microsoft.com/ subscription/subscribeme.asp?ID=135 if you have not already. By subscribing to these two services you will automatically receive information on the latest software updates and the latest security notifications thereby improving the likelihood that your computing environment will be safe from worms and viruses that occur.
