I tried to compile a list of reputable online scanners. Which of these would you recommend? Feel free to suggest other ones I may have missed....
ellison64: Win98 does not support NTFS, so it does not have the Alternate Data Stream problem.
Wow, I'm glad I started this thread. I had never heard of "alternate data streams" before.
I did a scan with AntiVir on my laptop tonight, and it popped up an alert for C:\WINDOWS\system32:hvaa.dll. Before I told it to quarantine it, I...
I think I'm gonna go with AntiVir and AVG for now. I had installed Avast on another computer not long ago, and it was kinda annoying. One time...
In that drop down menu, you can change it from Deutsch to English.
Unless the two programs are both made by the same company, how can one have priority over the other?
OK, so I can run an anti-virus program and an anti-spyware program at the same time. But now that I think about it... why wouldn't that cause a...
Thanks for the suggestions everyone!
Yeah I think it would be best to have something that will prevent spyware from getting on my machine in the first place. But something that can...
I've read that you should only have one anti-whatever program resident in memory at a time, otherwise multiple programs might interfere with each...
Can you guys please recommend some good anti-spyware/malware programs that are both free and light (in terms of memory usage)? Thanks!
I know of AVG, AntiVir, and Avast. Are there any other popular free anti-virus programs? Which of those would you recommend? The lighter (in...
I'm currently running AVG anti-virus, Ad-Aware, and Spybot S&D. In terms of virus/adware/spyware/malware protection, do you think that's good...
Yes, it came with the wireless adapter. I ended up installing Sygate on the PC that is sending the extra packets, and Sygate says that some of...
Thanks for the reply, Stem. I found out that they are being sent by the Orinoco Client Manager (wireless program). I need to investigate this...
Can you experts explain some of the things showing up in my CHX log file? - One of the PCs on my LAN (it is running Win98 ) sometimes sends UDP...
If a type 3 goes out, it would be in response to something. What kind of incoming packet would trigger a type 3 ICMP packet to go out?
I see some people say that the only outbound ICMP packets you should allow are type 8. But is it necessary to make rules that explicitly allow...
I just noticed I misread that news release. I thought it said September 2006 instead of 2004. So I guess Stefan is still allowed to post here....
I've still got the CHX 3.0 install package that I downloaded a couple months ago, and compared it to the install package that is currently on the...
Thanks for the link. Does this mean that they will continue to release free updates to CHX that contain only bug fixes, and that additional...
So what's going on with CHX? Stefan hasn't posted in close to 4 weeks (hope he's OK), and the idrci.net website is not really a website anymore...
Looks like the Destination MAC field needs to be set to "Any." I hadn't touched CHX in about a week, and the internet access suddenly stopped. I...
Whoops, stupidity on my part. ::) I had put my PC's MAC address into the Source field. Now that I changed it to have the router's MAC address...
Separate names with a comma.
