Ok, in principle, I sort of agree with you. You should be entitled to decide what happens on your own PC. But, geez dude, it's not worth going out...
I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure that this is wrong. System Task Manager is comparable to Sysinternals Process Explorer, not to RootkitRevealer. I...
It doesn't have to be run in safe mode necessarily, just as Admin with nothing else going on. Think of it sort of like a defrag utility... shut...
The main thing to look out for, IMHO, would be Registry entries marked "Hidden from Windows API." [EDIT: Also, of course, you would want to...
We need to figure out which service is actually the one causing the error. Generic Host Process for Win32 Services, or svchost.exe, is just a...
Right... apparently I was still typing out the instructions for manually changing the client PC IP address when you responded. It's not of much...
Ummm... would you like to think about that one again? ;)
I wouldn't if you are like 90% of home broadband users who are allocated a single dynamic IP on their cable/dsl modem. In such a case, a switch...
More than likely the router has a built-in HTTP and/or Telnet server for management. I would guess that it uses the private IP "192.168.1.1" or...
I haven't tried it yet, myself, but I have heard that PDF995 is a good product. Apparently, the products are free with a "sponsor page", or $9.95...
Part of me definitely agrees, but part of me disagrees as well. I can see both sides. Really the virus writers aren't in control of this...
Some vendors define SPI differently, but here's really the scoop on "Stateful Packet Inspection". Originally, the very first firewalls were simple...
The following table comes from eEye's Blink product page (so its obviously skewed towards them), but I believe it was original published by...
I'm using the ones supplied by default by NOD32, plus any of the additional ones noted on the link provided by Meneer (thanks!). Here is the list...
But, you already said you run tools like Process Guard. Doesn't PG fall into the same category really? PG only helps if a virus or trojan makes it...
I like Macs. I don't use one on a regular basis, but I'm definitely thinking of adding a Mac Mini. The problem isn't even really software...
However, it is a matter of perspective. You act like it is significant trouble to create a non-Admin account and to occassionally type an admin...
I found this Netgear document comparing VPN support in their routers, which may be of some help. I had forgotten about things like L2TP and PPTP...
I'm not sure. Your router may provide a way to put certain workstations sort of in a psuedo-DMZ where it will not block any incoming traffic and...
Blue, Yeah, I might do exactly like you suggest. :) But, I haven't really made too much use of some of the higher end features of the...
IPSec VPNs make use of IP protocol number 50, for Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP), and 51, for Authentication Header (AH). Unfortunately...
I am currently using a Juniper NetScreen 5GT, which is a SOHO type firewall and IPSec VPN appliance. It is a very good and highly configurable...
Ok, I'm going to cover quite a bit of ground, but I can't guarantee results. Mup.sys. The other thread linked to provided a lot of dubious...
I would suggest downloading the Sysinternals' Autoruns utility. It will list virtually every possible location that an autostart executable can...
You know, I don't want to start an all-out flamewar here or anything, but for all of the moaning I always hear about SP2 and Microsoft's updates,...
Separate names with a comma.
