    - Norton slows System After upgrading to Norton Internet security 2004 my system takes much longer to boot up and is slow when first opening an application. Since SP2 was installed it seems to have slowed further. Is there a way of disenabling certain Norton functions, and what would they be, to speed up the system?

    - vpn problems I use Cisco vpn to connect to a secure site. Using XP this worked fine for several months. I have Sygate personal firewall installed as well. Yesterday I installed the XP SP2 and everytime I now try to use the vpn connection (on entering name/password) the screen goes black and the computer re-boots. In re- booting there is automatically a "disc check for consistency" and a number of *.pf files (what are these?) are "not valid". The message indicates that these are "fixed" by copying old files!! One of these is called vpngui.pf, which seems sort of relevant. Any suggestiomns would be appreciated. I have tried turning off the Windows XP firewall (which appeaerd with the XP SP2) but this makes no difference to the propblem. Peter. Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60107

    - Map network dive- resource error When I try to map a network drive to my notebook, I get the error "[Network name] not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource." I am able to map the drive to another computer on my network so I assume the server is configured properly. (It's not configured as a server, I just use it that way - it's a peer to peer network) The notebook communicates through an internet gateway with no problems. When I look under My Network Places (In Windows Explorer) it shows the network by name but no computers, printers, or folders. If I click on the network name, I get the error as cited above. The only user on any machine is me so I have (I think) total administrator authority. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    - Firefox vs IE (restricted sites) I'm contemplating the switch from IE to Firefox. I like Firefox's pop-up blocking, low memory usage compared to IE, etc. One thing that is stopping me is the fact that Firefox doesn't have something like a Restricted Sites zone like IE does. I like the Restricted Sites zone in IE because it's a long list of sites I've compiled so that these sites will not be able to use cookies, ActiveX controls, Java applets, scripting, unwanted pop-ups, auto-installing of unwanted programs like spyware, etc. I'm apprehensive to use Firefox because of this, although I know I can disable certain things in Firefox (like Java, and ActiveX isn't even supported). Am I being too paranoid here or is there something Firefox gives in return for the loss of my cherished list of restricted sites? Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60093

    - Pop-up Stopper Free Edition Sounds I have Pop-Up Stopper Free Edition (by Panicware). So far, so good, it's working! I only have one problem: when logged in as a user, the sounds that you can choose from (Properties>Pop-up notification) aren't there. However, if I'm logged in as Administrator, the sounds are there. I have gone in to check permissions and it seems I shoul be able to have the sounds under my user account (it shows as "read" in the Properties of the Panicware folder so I don't know why it's not allowing me to use sounds unless I'm logged in as Administrator). Anyone have any clues as to how to fix this? Thank you for your time! Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60087

    - Enforce stronger password policy for administrator My Win2K single domain is set to expire passwords every 180 days, 6 characters, password complexity not enabled. I would like to allow members of the Domain Admins group to input at least 9 character passwords (enable complexity) and change passwords every 90 days. The change password age is easy to script and force to change as often as I wish. I am wondering if there is any tool out there that allows me to enforce stronger password requirements for selected groups ? (Password policy is enforced at domain level, and I can't enforce stronger ones at this point). Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60051

    - How can I check for software piracy? I need to upgrade to Win XP Pro. Recently, I've run across several "Eastern European Companies" who can sell me this program for around $50. They say it's original and comes with a "unique registration code" (key code?) that will enable activation. They say the progams are genuine, fully functional, not demos or academic versions. But, they say these are OEMs, i.e. no box, packaging or manual. They also say these products can't be registered with Microsoft in order to get technical support and rebates. Am I treading on dangerous waters here? Is this legit? Or can I make one of these programs work for me? How can I know if these programs are pirated? Anybody out there have an answer?

    - Sp2 Firewall, also Homepage Just checked firewall on cable connection after Sp2 install. 1) Under exceptions, remote assist is checked but I have not enabled it in System Properties, nor did I enable it in firewall. Is there some other meaning to this that it needs be on? 2) Under Advanced, Msmsgs is enabled for Tcp & Udp. I disable Msn Messenger in Windows applications because I think it may a source of malicious attack. I use Outlook but without messenger activation. Again, is there a reason for this being auto set? Non firewall question: Does ones homepage mean anything more than what one sees when activating Browser? I find that msn.com for example is slow to fully load at times, so I tried www.null.com which does nothing according to source code and as proof, loads really fast. Thanks for any help.

    - How do I make a network user login a Local Administrator? Attempting an install of software that requires Local Administrator rights while logging onto the network. O/S -- PC with Windows XP Professional, a server with 2003 Server, and myriad other servers in a domain... I thought that when you create a Local Administrator user on a workstation, with the same username and password as on the domain, it would authenticate the user in the domain, while allowing the Local Administrator privileges. This doesn't appear to be the case. Every time I log into the domain with the username and password (which is the same username and password on the PC (as a Local Administrator) as in the domain (I'm not sure what rights/privileges are given)), I receive an error during the install stating that I didn't have sufficient rights. When I go into Local Users and Groups, I am unable to change or add anything. If I log out of the domain and into "this PC", I am able to alter Local Users and Groups, but then I am not on the network as an authenticated user... How do I accomplish making the network user login a Local Administrator on the PC? Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60019

    - Updated FAQ available for MBSA 1.2.1 I wanted to alert everyone that a new version of the MBSA FAQ is now posted - thanks to your feedback on the newsgroups! http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools/mbsaqa.mspx New in the FAQ : Q. What versions of MBSA are supported? A. PSS only supports the latest version of MBSA which is currently 1.2.1. The mssecure.xml file that MBSA uses to identify missing security updates is different for MBSA 1.2+ than for earlier versions. As of April 20th, 2004, the mssecure.xml file used by earlier versions is no longer being updated. Therefore, scans performed with MBSA 1.1.1 or earlier versions will be incomplete. Users running less than MBSA 1.2.1 will see a message notifying them that 1.2.1 is available. Q. Do I need to uninstall MBSA 1.2 before installing MBSA 1.2.1? A. No, MBSA 1.2.1 will automatically uninstall any previous version of MBSA before installing MBSA 1.2.1 Q. Does MBSA support 64-bit Windows? A. No. Q. What is the current version of MBSA? Why do I see conflicting version numbering in the product? A. The latest version of MBSA is version 1.2.1 - which is also referred to as 1.2.4013.0 on some screens. The 4013.0 refers to build versioning. The official version number exists in the "About Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer" link. If you are running MBSA 1.2 you will see a message that a new version 1.2.4013.0 is available. Q. What settings are required for a successful remote scan of a Windows XP SP2 machine? A. This is addressed in the "readme.html" file in the "Help" directory under the "#firewall" section. If you require remote scanning of Windows XP Service Pack 2 machines, these conditions must be met : . The Server service, Remote Registry service, and File & Print Sharing services must be enabled. . Remote machine scans are performed using TCP ports 139 and 445. In a multi-domain environment, where a firewall or filtering router separates the two networks, TCP ports 139 and 445 and UDP ports 137 and 138 must be open in order for MBSA to connect and authenticate to the remote network being scanned. You must allow these ports on the remote Windows Firewall. -- Mike Chan Technical Product Manager (MBSA) Security Business Unit Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -- Tag: removing networking files Tag: 60007

    - SpywareWarriors Vs. PrivacyToolsVendor If you all don't read the Spyware Warrior forums, you are really missing out on something that you have to see if only for the entertaining yet surreal look of it (sort of like a fatal highway crash). There, a vendor of the allegedly rogue anti-spyware app "Privacy Tools 2004" posted to defend his product and ask for opinions on how he can fix the problems with it. From there, it went downhill fast! The vendor ("Ash1ey") went on to berate the posters there, actually threatened to ADD spyware in the app that was supposedly suppose to scan and remove it, and now threatens legal action! This is too good to be missed! This is a look into the mind of one of these people trying to make a quick buck off unsuspecting consumers. It's a must read! http://www.spywarewarrior.com/viewtopic.php? p=25034&highlight=#25034 (For those unfamiliar with Spyware Warrior, http://www.netrn.net/spywareblog/ is a spyware blog and http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm is the great guide to anti-spyware apps you should NOT get!)

    - servers in russia? I am not sure if i am posting to the correct newsgroup, but here goes. When I start my computer and the firewall is activated, my firewall ("zero-knowledge Freedom")is programmed to ask me whether to accept or deny access to my computer from outside servers that are ostensibly related to various software programs. One of the programs for which i receive a message is Windows Explorer. What seems odd to me is that the IP address of the remote server is alternatively in Russia and berlin germany. Does Microsoft really host some of its stuff on servers in Russia and germany. For Russia, the host name is listed as 62.118.251.84 and the destination IP address is : v20-u.valuehost.ru For Berlin, the Host name is 141.45.186.7 and the destination IP is: dozenten.f1.fhtw-berlin-de Does this seem odd or am I getting paranoid? If this is a spoof, how do I stop their server from attempting to access my system? Tag: removing networking files Tag: 59977

    - spyware is ruining my computer I seemed to have picked up a trojan virus. It is one of those what says: you have to download "SPY WARE" I always refused to download that thing. My Norton antivirus has been quarentining the virus. So far 70 copies of it has been quarentined. The problem is that the function of my computer has been going down. It is now to the point that I can no longer surf the internet b/c internet explorer locks up. Do you think I should have downloaded spyware? What is spyware? I figured that it was another virus that the first trojan horse is just trying to get me to dl a bigger virus. Also, even tho norton has been putting these viruses in quarentine, they still continue to damage my computer. So, I am now to the point where I have to format my harddrive and reinstall everyhting. It is going ot be a pain in the butt. any help? Any one know more about htis spyware thing?\ thjx in advance. Tag: removing networking files Tag: 59941

    - Firewalls Why do I need a software firewall when there is all ready a SPI firewall in my wireless router? To me it is a duplication that is not needed. Yet SP2 "yells" if I disable it. Tag: removing networking files Tag: 59927

I need to ensure that stand alone computers can not
achieve internet access, or be networked together. One of
the steps is to remove all related files. Currently, I
remove all NET*.cabs & win*.cabs. Are there other files I
should be removing?
