    - Win2000 patches Where can I find all the Win2000 security patches without using Windows Update? Our PCs are not on Internet. I need to be able to download to floppy or CD and manually install. We have SP4 right now. Which patches exist beyond SP4? Same for Word 2000 and I.E.6. We do have risk of viruses and worms via dialup to billing services and backup hard drives that get plugged into home PCs. Will we have to sign up for dialup ISP if Windows update is the only way to stay current? Tag: debug.exe Tag: 33033

Also, the letters typed do not always appear immediately on the screen. Please could somebody advise me how to get rid of this effect. This is a sample of what is happening.

    - Adding existing McAfee Scan account to new computer Can anyone tell me whether I need to start a new subscription to McAfee Security Scans if I still have several months with a subscription on my old computer? I've tried to sign on for updates online, but am told I need to buy a new subscription. My old computer is very dead, so it seems that I should be able to transfer the account to my new system. A free trial is available with my new computer. However, McAfee tells me that I already have an account so I'm not eligible for the trial. Sort of a catch 22. By the way, the McAfee website was absolutely no help with this question. Thanks for any help. Tag: debug.exe Tag: 33020

    - Windows Update Failure For the past three weeks a Windows 98 SE machine has given a General Protection Fault when installing a critical update (841078). I have exchanged emails with Microsoft several times during that period (they take a few days to react). The first suggestions they made did not apply to W98. The subsequent suggestions were easy to apply and totally ineffective. I still get a General Protection Fault when I attempt to install the update. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Does anyone think this is a satisfactory response from Microsoft? To forestall the inevitable question: I have not updated because I have software which will not run on newer versions, and a scanner that has no XP driver available. Tag: debug.exe Tag: 33015

    - Blocking Senders Good afternoon Deb, If you are using Microsoft Outlook, you can have the unwanted senders mail sent directly to the trash once received. In Outlook, click on Organize icon, on your tool bar, select Junk email. Then use the pull down menus to set the rules to Move Junk messages to Deleted Items, and then click the Turn on Button. Then go back to your un-wanted mail and right click on it and select the Junk email list, add to junk senders list. You will receive a confirmation, just click ok and you are finished. No new software needed. You can also do this using Netscape, just a differant setup is all. Hope this helped. Have a great day. Dave Tag: debug.exe Tag: 32982

    - Patches KB824146 AND KB823980 I utilized the KB823980 scanning tool on my entire class b IP address range and pathched all that showed vulnerable. Then comes the second patch and scanning tool. I run KB824146 scanning tool and deploy the patch Via SMS out to all the client machines. When I go back to the KB823980 scanning tool and run it to assure we are protected, it shows that I now have hundreds of machines infected once again. Here is the Kicker,,, If I re-run the KB824146 scanning tool, it will show that all the hosts have both patches applied I wonder if patch number two made changes to patch number one so that when you re-run the original scanner it can not find its fix, there for shows the system vulnerable. Any body else run into this? This one has me wondering if the second scanning tool will fix bothe security breeches? Thanks for your help IT community. Dave Tag: debug.exe Tag: 32976

How can I block people from doing that ? My network setup is such that I have a router that is connected to a gateway and all our network clients are connected to the gateway. Although due to using NAT , individual users IP address is not exposed , but people can find out the router IP address and then do a whois to track the rest of the details.

Does anyone know if it is possible to remove debug.exe
from Win XP Pro. I have to remove attrib.exe and
debug.exe for security reasons (inmate access in a prison
setting). I can remove attrib by deleting both the file
and the autorestore file. Debug still auto-restores.
Any Suggestions???

Go for it. I think Microsoft keeps edlin.exe and debug.exe in Windows just
for fun.

I'd recommend looking at policy settings. If it's set up as a protected
system file, you want to disable access via policy rather than trying to
delete it.

I don't know this area very well, so I can't say whether this is possible or
not--but that's where I'd look.
