    - MSN Been Hacked My hotmail account has been hacked and Microsoft's website is about as helpful as your average bureaucratic mess - ie: none at all. If someone can direct me to the correct place to lodge for my account to be returned to me I'd be very grateful. I cant remember the psuedonym I used to signup with so the automated response sheet is useless to me. My password and Secret Question have both been changed. Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50549

    - Can visit to website endanger security? I received a spoof email asking me to update my CitiBank details. It was obviously created by an oriental English speaker, but I was curious because the link therein led to an https: site (ie, secured site). So I had a look, and was redirected to an insecure site. I looked there, thinking they would have a form for us suckers to fill in giving away passwords etc, but the page was totally blank, and even though my browser said "Done" I still had my hourglass (but this often happens anyway). Has my curiosity made me vulnerable? I don't have a firewall because when I installed ZoneAlarm I didn't understand it. (I know... but all it seemed to do was list IP numbers and I just carried on as normal. I don't normally visit dodgy sites. Obviously I won't do it again, and yes, I do know what curiosity did to the cat. Patricia Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50547

    - Spybot Search and Destroy 1.2---->Replacement for the program ? I have run Spybot since it first came out and love the way the program works. It seems to work well with Zone Alarm Pro and Ad-Aware Plus picking up the things the others miss. However...Not sure if the Spybot people are on a long vacation or too busy with Beta 1.3, but there have been no updates for almost 6 weeks (Since 4 March) and in the past, they usually have a new update about every week. Also they are not responding to email support, before they always did within a day. Does anyone know what is going on with them ? I hope Mr. Kolla did not "retire" as its a great little program, but no updates in this long a period is not a good sign to me. Anyone have an alternate to Spybot that I can use until (if..) Spybot starts updating again ? I have seen a few names tossed around in here, but never really paid attention to the comments as Spybot had been working so well for me. Looking for something that works well on Windows XP Pro (I am also using the SP2 RC1 release) Thanks ! -- Tedd Riggs PDA Square Content Developer www.pdasquare.com Redmond, WA Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50543

    - SUS Question Hello Everyone, I have searched the KB and looked for an SUS newsgroup, but there appears to be nothing available. I have a problem and I guess that this is the best place to request assistance. Here it goes: I installed SUS on a Windows Small Business Server 2003 machine and redirected SUS to work off of the "companyweb" web site. When I attempt to Synchronize the server and approve the updates, the server appears to synchronize correctly, but when I go to approve the updates, I receive this error message: "No Packages ar available to be approved. This may be a because a synchronization has never been performed of because your Software Update Services Server is not functioning correctly." The approval log appears to work fine, but the approve updates page does not... Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Stewart Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50535

    - 3rd Party Server monitoring! G/day forum, I've been asked to recommend a software that sits on a file server that montors usage activity, users, access, etc. I've enabled a high level of user monitoring through GPO but its difficult to analyse the high volume of logs generated. Is their a 3rd party application that i can use to comprehend these logs? Seperate 3rd party logging? Host intrusion protection? Your thoughts are greatly appreciated. Regards, Steve.

    - security options for embedded objects in MSWord I have recently tried desperately to set password protection on a word doc object embedded within another word document (what I'm really wanting is to keep part of a word document password protected, this is the only way I could think of doing it) but without success. I have tried the normal way, by opening the embedded doc and using Tools|Options|Security tab to set a password but as soon as I exit this dialog box and close the embedded doc the password protection settings appear to get wiped. Does anyone know if what I'm trying to do is possible, or is this a bug? Or do you have any suggestions on a better way to do what I'm attempting as described in the brackets above?

    - Zone Labs Security Scanner I just got an e-mail from Zone Labs (makers of the firewall ZoneAlarm). In it, they are advertising the new Zone Labs Security Scanner, which is "a Web-based scanner that detects tracking cookies. It utilizes server based content and updates to assist users in blocking the latest threats." Anyone using this yet, and if so, what do you think? I'm thinking it's useless for me since I'm frequently deleting my cookies anyway, but I like ZoneAlarm firewall so far so I'm thinking I should give this scanner a try. Any thoughts or opinions?

    - How do you guys handle security in NT4 domain?? I already posted this in another NG. Sry. No1 replied thats why I posted here. I'm new at posting, I'll remember next time to post in multiple ngs the right way.... Hello, Just started looking at this ng. I was wondering in an NT4 domain , do you guys rely on group policies only for security at the workstations? about three yrs ago our company final thought it might be a good idea to implement security for the night shift users. I went through setting up group policies for the night shift. I restricted their logins to run only 3 company programs and removed all the unnecessary stuff such as regedit, run, etc. It "seemed" like group policies were enough, however i found out its easy to get to DOS prompt, other programs,network neighborhood, and local drives. In addition to group policies, i had to change NTFS permissions on various exe's and dll's to further "lockdown" the NT4 workstations. I was just wondering if any1 else does the same thing. Just in case any1 wants to know, here's our setup : NT4 Domain 90% of local workstations are NT4 SP6a (not all are patched. However, all test machines where fully patched.) 1 pdc, 2BDC SP6a patched. 95% of user profiles are mandatory. thanks for any replies --willc Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50478

    - security downloads Hello, Every time I turn on my computer and access the Internet, there are more security downloads. Is there a way that I can download these without incurring Internet charges? I pay by the hour, and lately I'm using a lot of hours trying to download the security stuff (and the downloads are not always installed correctly for some reason). Also, if I'm not sitting at my computer, the Internet access logs out automatically after about 20 minutes of no use. What happens to the download information? Does it all get lost? I have logged back in a couple of times, and then after I thought everything downloaded, I got messages that the information was downloaded but not installed. What does that mean and how do I fix it? I am beginning to wonder why I got a new computer with Windows XP Home Edition. I never had any issues with my Windows 98. Thank you for your attention to this. Please let me know how to download information with correct installation, and please let me know if it can be done without constant Internet access. Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50467

    - metrics for security I would to start a discussion to take the security progress metrics beyond theoretical and into the practical, realistic and usable to measure progress and relative security. I've had a couple of brainstorm sessions and given it some thought, but for the criteria to become useful, I think there should be an active community discussion that asks hard questions and refines the criteria to an accepted set. If we achieve that, we may even enable some good independant apples-to-apples analysis. I've given some thoughts to the criteria and I think: . The criteria should be measurable and distinguishable . The methodology should be repeatable by objective 3rd-parties . The criteria should support real world scenarios . The criteria should be useful for business decisions . The criteria should support measuring version over version improvements . The criteria should support competitive comparisons My strawman proposal for security criteria has the following high level areas: assurance, security quality, protective capabilities, manageability & automation, security update tools and security update policies. I have also added one other category based upon previous feedback on the strawman. My examples below in each category are not meant to be comprehensive, but just a good starting point for the discussions. Assurance is an area that experienced security professionals will recognize. In the days of the NSA's Trusted Computer Systems Evaluation Criteria, different assurance levels were tied to different features sets. The Common Criteria, in use today introduced a more flexible model that has separated assurance levels from the feature set - EAL4, for example stands for evaluation assurance level 4. So, in the assurance area, I can think of several measurable sub-criteria: 3rd-party certifications, source integrity protections, established change control processes, quality assurance processes, and penetration testing. Security Quality is the term I have begun using for things like vulnerabilities that are found in code. In this category, I can think of several sub-criteria: number of vulnerabilities fixed, number of public vulnerabilities unfixed, average time to fix a publicly-reported vulnerability, number of open listening ports, and number of listening services or daemons. Protective Capabilities are the capabilities that might protect the software from attack even in the presence of a vulnerability. Sub-criteria include: port firewall capabilities, antivirus/worm capabilities, strong authentication, behavior monitoring, backup, and security policy enforcement features. Manageability & Automation is a category to capture software technologies designed to make mistakes less likely to decrease security and the less expertise is required to deploy and manage a product with low security risk. Sub-criteria would include: security configuration wizards/tools, lockdown tools, vulnerability assessment capabilities, security reporting capabilities, and central security management capabilities. Security Update Packages & Tools are a complementary part of measuring security until either security quality or protective capabilities reach 100% effectiveness. Sub-criteria should include: automatic update capabilities, patch approval capability for enterprise updates, patch deployment tool, uninstall capabilities, re-compile requirements, reboot requirements, size of packages, and works with 3rd-party deployment tools. Security Update Policies is an interesting one that I think there should be a lot of discussion about. Sub-criteria for this are would include: security lifecycle time period of products, patches all publicly disclosed issues, issues security advisories, follows responsible disclosure, offers mitigation guidance, patch test quality criteria, and patches all versions/languages at the same time. If I am the responsible administrator deploying and managing a dynamic web farm, for example, these criteria might be strong considerations when selecting my software components. Workload Required Security Features is one I have added based upon feedback I received when I published an earlier strawman in the Microsoft Security Newsletter. The work to flush this out still needs to be done, but the idea is as follows. What security features are necessary to lock down the security for _any_ OS deployment? What security features would be necessary for a secure deployment of a dynamic web server in a particular business scenario? A database server? For a given scenario, we would work to identify features like identification & authentication, # of biometrics supported, remote encrypted connectivity, comprehensive security auditing, etc, that would be useful decision making critiria. If security metrics is an area you care about, then comment on these high level categories. Are they too narrow, too broad? If/once we get some refinement on the high level criteria, we can split off some individual threads for each category and try to flush out a list of criteria.

    - Why is XP listening on these ports? I have just installed XP Pro + SP1 out of the box onto a new machine, starting with a full disk format. The machine has no network card or modem yet, so it has had no opportunity to talk to the outside world. I have made no attempt to configure any services, and have not installed any other software (not even the Feb 2004 Security Update CD). So I am a little mystified as to why netstat -an reports the following: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TCP: 0.0.0.0, listening on ports 135, 445, 1025 and 5000. UDP: 0.0.0.0, ports 135, 445, 500, 1026 127.0.0.1, ports 123, 1028, 1900 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What's going on here? -- Ian Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50450

    - WE NEED TO STOP SPYWARE!!! I use the internet alot, and i get way to much spyware. I hate it and I hate all those people who make it, we need to stop spyware, I think it is rediculious how we can get no privacy and no control on this, this is what is killing computers, such a great invention. Its funny because, we pay so much for a computer and we can't use it with out being traced or invaded, we really need to have something done, we need to form some kind of organization to get rid of this nasty thing for good, I think, we need to unite and fight this thing. I have spyware and ad removers, I do, they work like crap, I have like 6 of them, of coarse they help, they work well but not good enough, we need to have something done. Im thinking that if we don't use Kazaa and those kinds of spyware programs, we can go to other programs that are spyware free like shareazaa(if correct spelling). Other programs as well that use it, should not be used anymore. I think microsoft is partially responsible for this fiasco as well, they build great software and allow companies to invade our computers and we cannot control this, it is actually the biggest load of B.S. ever. I am angered greatly since I do web design and design programs and I have to deal with all this junk. I can't take it and I know people who do have it, don't like it. I am calling out to people who read this to help do something. We all need it. Another thing that amazes me as well, that some companies make money off of our information that they take with out my or anyones permission, they take everything of ours and can control browser settings, make icons on your computer, practically hijacking your computer and you have no control. This is all I have to say to the big company Microsoft, you make such good software, then defend it and protect your investment. We pay darn good money for this and others play us like they're our puppet master, we can't do anything, so next time you make another Internet Explorer, defend your product and help us, you started a legacy and now its turned into a disgusting show. I can barely use it now, I have to go to other browsers that are not popular or really connected to IE, like Real One Player Browser and Netscape. Finishing this message off, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING, SO PLEASE HELP US!!

Now here is where it gets wierd - tried to go to their website - page cannot be displayed error message comes up. Any link to Computer Assoc. will not come up and this was the same problem I had with the Symantec sites. Is something loaded with these programs blocking my access to these sites? It's the wierdest thing I ever saw as ALL other sites come up and have no problems with web access. Tried to email Comp. Assoc. but got no answer. Thanks for any help Tag: securtity patch Tag: 50376

BEWARE OF BOGUS BULLETINS
If you get e-mail that claims to contain a Microsoft software
update, it is probably a virus trying to trick you into infecting
your computer. Microsoft never widely distributes software in e-mail.
