 - 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: error has occurred in the scipt 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.

 - 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: error has occurred in the scipt 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.

 - Securing the Registry. G/day forum, I've been ploughing through documents and whitepapers on how to secure your web server, the best resource of all was probably Improving Web Application Security - Threats and Countermeasures, an absoloute bible for all ye web admins out there. Before you read the part i'm querying, it i just want to doublecheck that i'm not missing anything. Your thoughts please :) On Chapter 16: Securing Your Web Server, page 449, the following: Step 9. Registry The registry is the repository for many vital server configuration settings. As such,you must ensure that only authorized administrators have access to it. If an attacker is able to edit the registry, he or she can reconfigure and compromise the security of your server. During this step, you: ? Restrict remote administration of the registry. ? Secure the SAM (stand-alone servers only). Restrict Remote Administration of the Registry The Winreg key determines whether registry keys are available for remote access. By default, this key is configured to prevent users from remotely viewing most keys in the registry, and only highly privileged users can modify it. On Windows 2000, remote registry access is restricted by default to members of the Administrators and Backup operators group. Administrators have full control and backup operators have readonly access. The associated permissions at the following registry location determine who can remotely access the registry. HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\winreg To view the permissions for this registry key, run Regedt32.exe, navigate to the key, and choose Permissions from the Security menu. Secure the SAM (Stand-alone Servers Only) Stand-alone servers store account names and one-way (non-reversible) password hashes (LMHash) in the local Security Account Manager (SAM) database. The SAM is part of the registry. Typically, only members of the Administrators group have access to the account information. Although the passwords are not actually stored in the SAM and password hashes are not reversible, if an attacker obtains a copy of the SAM database, the attacker can use brute force password techniques to obtain valid user names and passwords. Restrict LMHash storage in the SAM by creating the key (not value) NoLMHash in the registry as follows: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA\NoLMHash For more information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 299656, "New Registry Key to Remove LM Hashes from Active Directory and Security Account Manager."

 - Outlook Express Spam Blocker - When? I only use Microsoft software products. It's just easier that way. But, I've just about had it with the lack of progress in Outlook Express concerning SPAM! Does Microsoft have any plans whatsoever to update the inadequate "Outlook Express" Spam blocking features? This is getting ridiculous! Tag: error has occurred in the scipt Tag: 40529

 - aua.boot This particular file keeps popping up wanting to access my internet connection. McAfee states that it reccommends that access should be denyied, that there have been updates to this file since last access. My question is: What the heck is an aua.boot and should I continue to deny it access to the internet? I'm not a total idiot to computers, I know the basics and can do some cool things with them but I have not idea what that is! Please help! :) Thanks :) Tag: error has occurred in the scipt Tag: 40519
