But...the Microsoft Bulletin says my system (Windows98SE) is not effected.

    - Internet explorer sending me where I don't want to go. I typed in www.yahoo.com into my address bar earlier today and it sent me to some porno site that kept trying to force me to download something. It would only send me to there website I wanted if I typed in the http:// first. I have stopped IE from sending me to where I don't want to go, but whenever I omit the http:// (i.e. www.ebay.com) I notice the following in my status bar: http://vrape.hardloved.com/top/top.php? id=0&search=www.ebay.com This sends me to Ebay, but it still records this address in my drop-down list on the Address toolbar. I feel like it's still trying to make me go where I don't want to, so how do I fix it so IE will simply search for www.ebay.com? Andrew Tag: password Tag: 25341

I cannot access a folder on my "D" drive - it says access denied- I am admin and tried chaning read only setting in properties to no avail. I right clicked and chose security and sharing, but there are no security options - access options or the like - there - I am not sure how to get around in administrative tools, but I'm thinking that is where the problem is (though I did not change anything - I swear!).

Well the longer I am online (I use AOL) the more they come (about 1 every 20 min or so). I tracked it down to a program that resides in microsoft folder "system32". The program is "csrss.exe" but when I try to end the program it says it is a "critical program and cannot be ended". Well if this is a microsoft problem I dont want it, and if its some sneaky ploy by adverisers (which I think it is) its annoying as hell! Please help!

    - Controlling CRL validity period for MSCA Hello, I wanted to understand exactly how the MS Certificate Authority determines the actual CRL validity period and how to control it precisely. I am interested in knowing the variance (how much etc.) it adds to the publish interval which seems like a grey area to me. I tried the following. I set these values in the relevant registry entries on my CA (Windows 2000 Ent CA): CRLPeriod REG_SZ = Hours CRLPeriodUnits REG_DWORD = 1 CRLOverlapPeriod REG_SZ = Hours CRLOverlapUnits REG_DWORD = 1 Note this CA do not do deltas. After adding the CRLOverlapxx reg values I bounced the service and forced a CRL publish at 2pm PST but the CRL validity of this latest CRL shows up as: Effective Date: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 11:39:21 AM Next update: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 9:24:21 PM I want to understand the math used for arriving at this validity period when I have the above settings. Related question would: What is the minimum validity period that one can publish a CRL with on a MSCA? Like for eg. can I have a CRL that is valid only/exactly for 1 or 2 hrs. Thanks.

    - Supposedly freeware I recently downloaded what I was told was a freeware trial version of Microsoft Excel, and I was stupidly roped into believing it. However, I went online and was redirected to the 'Licence Migration' page as my PC detected copied software was being used. I deleted the program that was in question, as when I opened it it was registered to someone called 'Dario' (not me anyway!) However, I am a bit concerned that Microsoft may think I am using pirated software. Is there any way I can email them to let them know of the situation?

    - WebDAV on IIS6 - security problems I have a probem with WebDAV on IIS6 (Windows Server 2003) not respecting NTFS file permissions. The shared web folder is configured on the web site to not allow anonymous access, and to use integrated windows authentication. Access from the client (Windows 2000) is using Add Network Place under My Network Places in Windows Explorer. Two issues: 1. Files created on the server (ie uploaded through WebDAV from a client) are owned by the Administrators group, not by the user that logged in. 2. When connecting as a user that does not have browse access to a subdirectory, repeated attempts in windows explorer of - right-clicking the folder under web folders in the left pane - choosing "explore" to create a new windows explorer window eventually give me (2-3 attempts) an explorer window allowing full access to ALL of the shared web folders and sub folders -- even write access to folders which NO users (apart from Administrator) have access.

    - Invalid Password I signed out of all applications (ie yahoo, ebay, hotmail) last week prior to vacation. Upon my return, I'm able to connect to the internet, but when I select certain applications, specifically my primary email account in yahoo, as well as ebay, I am receiving an invalid password message. My password has not changed and I am trying to figure out what is causing this. This is not an issue of needing to reset or get a new password, because it has not changed. I talked to compaq, earthlink, and neither could help me out. Earthlink thought it was a gliche where I needed space, but if that was the case, they I would think I could log on from another computer. I've already adjusted cookies, security and privacy settings as well as condensed space. Thanks to anyone who can provide any help Tag: password Tag: 25218

    - CRL publish & validity times.. Hi, MS Certificate Authority's documentation has following on it: "..there is a difference between a CRL publish period and the validity period of a CRL. The publish period of a CRL is established by the CA administrator. However, the validity period of the CRL is extended from the publish period to allow for Active Directory replication. By default, Certificate Services extends the publish period by 10% (up to a maximum of 12 hrs) to establish the validity period....There are registry entries which allow an administrator to control the variance between publish period and validity period to allow for slower directory replication. Refer to the Windows 2000 Resource Kits for information about these registry entries. " I am interested in knowing the configuration entries to control the actual validity period. I looked into Windows 2000 Server resource kits but could not find it anywhere. I noticed a registry value called CRLEditFlags in the CA's configuration registry key but dont have any documentation on it explaining how I can do the above. Also for my test CA the validity period is not being extended by 10% of the publish period - it seems quite arbitrary. Any help will be appreciated. rgds, Jayant Tag: password Tag: 25198

    - messenger pop-ups How do I turn off messenger? I have been inundated by some sleezy companies trying to sell me a pop up stop service for $24 to stop THEIR POP UP'S. MessengerBuster.com, StopMessenger.com, KillMessenger.com. I believe it is the same company claiming to be out of California with email the only way to communicate to them. They now are sending bogus stock tips...driving me nuts. They all should go to jail. Tag: password Tag: 25188

    - Odd problem with File Encryption Summary: Windows denies me access to my own encryped files, what could have caused it and how do i remedy it so i can access my files again?? Any help would be greatly appreciated I have encryped multiple folders with the built-in Windows XP pro encryption software (accessible from a file's properties). Without my knowlege of any changes, the encryption suddenly stopped allowing me access. I checked the certificate itself and it has not expired, and is quoted in the properties for the certificate as being "OK", it is present in my trusted certificates folder. When i attempt to request or renew the certificate with the same key it states that the certificate has no private key (yet in properties it says i have a private key, an odd discrepancy) (I also don't know where this "private key is or what it is) When I try to reqest or renew it with a new key it says "The Wizard cannot be started because it failed to contact the active directory" I only have one username on my computer and have not changed the username, how could i have lost access to my files????

    - Encrypt connection channel (Been reading other messages on this subject but could not find an answer, that is why I'm posting this. Please note, although I have posted to several groups, I've set follow-to microsoft.public.sqlserver.security in case I posted to where I shouldn't have, sorry if I have). Using + ASP.Net + SQL Server 2000 + Windows 2K Adv. Server. It is possible to encryp data that is exchanged between ASP.Net server in DMZ and SQL Server in secured zone? By that I mean securing all that data that passes though the firewall on port 1433 between ASP.Net and SQL Server. I guess there are two aspects to this question: 1 Encrypt the connection string that is used to make a connection, ie pass and ancrypted connection string from ASP.Net to SQL Server to make a connection. Does ADO.Net and SQL Server support this feature? 2 Encryption of sensitive sensitive query data that is exchanged between ASP.Net and SQL Server. By this I mean storing the data in cleartext, then have it ecrypted while it is in transition from the DB server to ASP.Net then have in decrypted back into cleartext in ASP.Net application. Is that possible? I suppse if either of the above is not possible then I will have to store the sensitive data into the DB encrypted and have it decrypted after reading. The problem with this method is that session keys cannot be used: the key used for encryption / decryption needs to be fixed for all time. Please help. Tag: password Tag: 25153
