"Access is Denied" Error Message When Encrypting or Decrypting Files or Folders

VBScript for server security monitoring?
Hi all-
First of all, sorry for the multiple cross-posts; I tried to pick out
germane groups to post to, so sorry-in-advance if it's not appropriate.
Anway, getting down to business:
As one of three AD administrators for a campus of more than 50000 users, I'm
a little strapped for time. However, one of the major things that needs
paying attention to is security on servers -- especially domain controllers
(the recent RPC exploit madness just reiterated that fact).
What I'm wondering is what tools have other network admins [yes, you!] have
used -- via VBScript and WMI -- to automate the process of security
auditing.
Ideally, I would have a vbscript that fires off once every fifteen minutes,
looks for weirdness (ie, >400 failed log in attempts from the same
workstation or for the same username) in the the logs of a list of
computers, then output the results to a file, and, if weirdness was found,
email a short text message to my phone. Is this even possible?!?!
Thanks in advance,
chris.

Downloading "Updates" from MS
Hello - 1st of all, what a bunch of hassle just to try to
send an email or whatever to MS to get some kind of simple
answer.
Anyway, all I want to know is how I can find out if the
Updates I periodically have downloaded over the years have
actually "installed" or not?
The reason I ask is because I came across a folder full of
ZIPPED files and I'm not sure if they had been UNzipped or
not (they are the files from MS UPDATE).
I just read that each downloaded file from MS Update must
be UNzipped manually. Is this correct? And is there a way
to find out what DL files installed and any that did not?
Thankyou for any feedback - James Tag: dcomx.exe Tag: 27031

IUSR lockout
All,
I tried to repeat a problem I was able to get to work before, but I am not
having any luck. I thought I was able to create a DOS on a web server by
locking out the IUSR account at one point. However, when I lock it out now,
I can't seem to get it to cause a DOS. The links and everything else seems
to behave normally even after locking out that account. Any thoughts on
what I may be doing wrong?
FYI, to do this, I created a test directory, and a user named test. For the
test directory, I allowed only the test user, administrators, and system to
have access to that folder. IIS was set to Integrated Auth, and Allow Anon
access. I thought I was able to demonstrate this problem before, but for
some reason I can't get it to work now. Thoughts?
Thanks,

HKLM\software\CLASSES\htafile\shell\open\command (MSHTA.EXE "%1"%*)
HKey_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile\shell\open\command (MSHTA.EXE "%1"%*)
Paths for the two are C:\windows\system\mshta.exe
Both possess an MD5 "signature" of

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 ?

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.

I set my Directory security to Basic Authentication.
