    - windows updates I bought a refurbished laptop running windows 2000 pro. When I went to update site there are 35 updates. The "add" button was grayed but the remove button was active. I do not want to download and install 35 updates at once. Some of them say to install separately. And I don't want to press the "remove" 34 times, then 33 times, etc. How do I get the add button activated so I can download and install one at a time.

    - MS04-003 MDAC version Hello, My question is regarding the patch for the subject security bulletin. Does the patch, remove the vulnerability in the current version installed on the computer or does the patch upgrade the version of MDAC to a version that is not vulnerable? For example, if my computer is running MDAC 2.7 and I apply the patch, does it upgrade me to 2.7 sp1 or 2.8? Or does it leave me at a patched version of 2.7? Thanks, BK Tag: program freezes upon use microsoft outlook/windows xp Tag: 45927

    - MS Update Downloads For the past five days or so, each time I log on, the Downloading MS Updates icon appears in my systems tray and shows a status of downloading updates. This will happen several times throughout the day, however, I never receive the dialog box telling me that updates have been downloaded and are ready to install. Prior when the download was completed, the dialog box would appear to advise you of that. Why is there a continual session of downloads, but never any status as to what is happening with them? TIA!

    - ip masking question Running XP w/ built-in firewall activated. When I got to auditmypc.com it shows my system is secure. So far, so good. However, there are some websites and services that claim to mask your ip address from advertisers if you type a url into their web page instead of into your url window. However, when I test those claims by typing www.auditmypc.com into those sites' windows then click on Privacy Test and choose Option 1, that excellent site now shows all kinds of open ports and lists the various Trojan viruses that exploit them. Most of the sites/products do not seem to actually mask the ip address at all and auditmypc.com is able to detect that. All show numerous vulnerabilities and open ports. One site appears to mask the ip but still shows some vulnerabilities. Are those vulnerabilities 1) only vulnerabilities on the proxy server, or 2) does IE/XP allow those vulnerabilities to be opened on my system even if the firewall is activated? Are there any free sites/services/products that actually work to keep web surfers anonymous? Tag: program freezes upon use microsoft outlook/windows xp Tag: 45863

    - Outlook Express This is truly scary how long I have been on this computer just to find an email address to write for help on OUtlook. Is there an easy website or access to get here faster?? My question is I have upgraded to Explorer #6 and some security for my Outlook. Now many attachments come in faded(they cannot be clicked on) and when the email is opened it states "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachment.." So I have gone into help repeatedly and found no answer on how to remove that for that particular attachment as many of these attachments are safe. Can you help me? I sure hope this is the right place to ask all these questions. Tag: program freezes upon use microsoft outlook/windows xp Tag: 45853

    - Spyware - Please Help Hi, I think I may have some kind of spyware installed on my computer and I can't seem to get rid of it. Here is the description of the problem. One day I noticed a folder titled "Links" in my favorites (bookmarks) and I wasn't sure if it was installed with the IE installation or what. I deleted the folder and closed IE. The next time I opened IE, the folder had reappeared. Basically, I can't delete this folder from my favorites. When I close and reopen IE, it will always come back. There isn't anything in this folder, it's just an empty folder called "Links". I've run both Lavasoft - AdAware and Spybot - Search and Destroy. They both cleaned stuff off of my computer, but they didn't fix this problem with the "Links" folder appearing in my favorites. I don't really download too many programs, but I guess all it takes is one. I have Internet Explorer 6 SP1 installed. Does this sound like a Spyware problem to you? Do you know of any better Spyware programs available. Thanks in advance for any help in fixing this problem. One more thing, let me know if this post doesn't belong in this newsgroup (I looked all around and I thought this newsgroup best suited this problem). If it doesn't, I'll move it.

    - Lost my way in Office 2003 Security Land: macros and addins I am an experienced software architect. I am "poweruser"user of Office, have experience in VBA (Access, Outlook, Access --> Word, Access --> Outlook, Outlook --> Access). I am retired now, use computer on;y for private purposes, in a home network with few Win XP Pro and Win ME systems, ADSL to internet, external website. And, now, I have problems with security in Office 2003. I should use high security level, with "trust all installed addins" cleared. To illustrate my problems, I will start Word. 1) Before the Word window opens, I get a first warning: Adobe PDFMaker 6.0 is in the menubar and I have to choose whether I want that or not. 2) Then I get a second warning: MS XML Toolbox has a toolbar, and I have to decide upfront whether I want that or not. 3) I used to have ScanSoft OmniPage 14 in the File menu and I had to decide whether I want that or not. (When fiddling around, I have succeeded in letting OmiPage disappear and I don not know yet know how to restore that: it was not in the addin list!) This all each time I start Word. My first problem therefore is: What to do with all these goodies that have become a nuisance? My second problem has to do with VBA. I cannot afford to have a certificate for code signing, all my programming is private, just for my home network.

Are you using an AV program? If so, this is running in the background and is
using allot of memory.
