    Newbie trouble shooting with zone alarm pro
    ZAP does have some bugs but that's expected with any fire wall.

    First off make sure that the way you connect to the Internet A.K.A. your Internet provider such as AOL ect ect under programs has green check marks in zone alarm to have access to the Internet except for the act as a server option I usually put red X's as hell no lol.

    If your on dial up on 56k you might notice a few things that you probably had no clue of but here goes.

    In some cases zone alarm pro works to well this causes problems on dial up.

    If you have AOL 7.0 or even 6.0 you might notice you cant connect to the Internet the very first time you try to connect.

    But you will always connect on the second time this is probably due to zap learning mode in testing the Icmp Protocol along side with udp and 1 TCP flag basically these problems acure when connecting to the Internet the first time on dial ups zap blocks the icmp as will as the udp-aol and you get an immediate TCP flag.

    the following problems will accure

    1. will not connect on dial up first time

    2. Aim instant messenger AOL's stand alone instant messenger and AOL internal messengers wont load( means buddy list wont load or the AOL instant messenger application stand alone will not connect or if it does the talking on aim feature will give you the if you and a buddy are behind different fire walls typical message box its due to this issue.)

    3 . If you post reply's on such forums as wilders your reply wont post correctly you get web page not found or not responding there for your post does not go threw.

    4. When clicking on several pages moving threw the web fast you will get pretty much a service of denial effect when none of the web pages load correctly you get page 404 not found or page not responding no matter what site you go to.

    Solution?
    1. First off call AOL and make sure you have the best dial up number in your local area sometimes that stupid auto numbers in your area isn't the best number for connecting to the Internet when using AOL.

    Have the AOL guy or woman guide you in putting locale dial up connection dial up numbers in manually?

    Find the one that connects the first time and move that one to the top when dialing the Internet so that number is at the top making it the first number you use when trying to reach the Internet threw AOL.

    After you done the albolve and found a good 1 dial up local connection first try number go ahead and disconnect and close AOL start up zone alarm pro.

    Then click on fire wall tab in zone alarm and click on Zones Tab

    Keep zone alarm pro open or hiding in task bar now dial up AOL when it gets to 4 click on zone alarm you will see new Zone alarm Internet connection with a strand of numbers such as for example 283.204.0.0/366.366.0.0 that says Net work Internet.

    Right click on it and go to add then scroll down to IP Range.

    Now you will get a box pop up with the following words.

    1. Zone tab trusted
    2. IP Address . . .
    3. IP Address . . .
    4. Description

    With the IP number you saw 283.204.0.0/366.366.0.0 do the following in the pop up box.

    1. Zone tab trusted
    2. IP Address 283 . 204 .0 .0
    3. IP Address 366 . 366 .0 .0
    4. Description Internet

    Then click OK.

    You will find doing this makes connecting to the Internet more easy and more stable.

    You might have to do it a few times to get all the safe IP connections From your Internet provider.

    For example some IP range connections might be extremely busy so you might have to connect to the Internet a second time and be redirected on to a less busy Internet connection there for add that new IP range number also to your safe zone.

    You will notice that you can post and your buddy list will load and you can connect on the first try depending if you were fast enough to add to zone.

    you will also notice aim talk works if it does not right click on aim in the right side bottom task bar on AOL instant messenger right click on it select preferences then aim talk

    On the box that says AlterNet Internet address check the box or unchecked it lol you have to play with it sometimes this will get it to work=)

    ZA splashscreen
    how I can get rid of the splashscreen that shows up when I start my computer?
       
    this should do the trick:

    ) Right click on the Zone Alarm icon and select properties.

    2) On the Shortcut tab, in the target field, enter in exactly:

    "C\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\zonealarm.exe" -nosplash

    Mr.Blazes newbie friendly must have toys for every newbie out there

    Most of these use no resources unless they're triggered

    [New]AIDA32 - Personal System Information

    This is a free program that will bring up everything in your system, including brand names, model numbers and even serial numbers to much/all of the hardware.  It is literally a total and complete break down of your entire system, including memory usage/availability, some problem detecting, even CPU temperature.  It does not run in the back ground, so it won’t deplete recourses.  The layout is similar to Windows Explorer with the tree formation of all of the computer categories.

    Even though its easy to use I recommend it to intermediate newbies who have some basic understanding of what there looking at.

    but even i can easily get the jest of things so its up to you a very good program indeed

    Note: Newbies click on the aida32 computer icon in the folder to get it started

    I also recommend you putting it in your documents folder and make a short cut to aida32 on either your desktop or on your start button under programs for easy access.

    ID-Blaster Plus v2.0    
    ID-Blaster Plus is compatible with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP.    
    In Windows, many applications have something called a "product ID number", a "GUID" or a "Unique ID number". This number may be the same through Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player - even the operating system itself.
    Since this number nevers changes, it would be the PERFECT way a malicious person or even an advertising company could track your habits. Maybe through a malicious website ActiveX control, or java applet.

    ID-Blaster Plus works by changing these ID numbers frequently, destroying tracking tactics using these numbers. ID-Blaster can run from the system tray, using up very little resources, and constantly protect you in the background.

    Much like ID-Blaster, MRU-Blaster helps protect your privacy - but there is a big difference.

    MRU-Blaster is an all-new program, made to do one large task - detect and clean MRU (most recently used) lists on your computer. These MRU lists contain information such as the names and/or locations of the last files you have accessed. But they are located ALL OVER your registry, and for almost ANY file type. By looking at these MRU lists, someone could determine what files you opened/saved/looked at, what their file names were, and much more! (And, in many cases, the lists are displayed in drop-down menus automatically.)

    AntiSpector 2.0 detect and remove Spector surveillance
    Spector is a popular monitoring and recording software that can be used to monitor all activity on a given computer.

AntiSpector will detect any installation of the Spector monitoring software and optionally remove it from the computer.

    DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0
    RegistryProt is a 100% free, standalone, compact, low-level realtime registry monitor and protector, that adds another dimension to Windows security and intrusion detection. By monitoring important locations and keys in the Windows system registry, RegistryProt will alert whenever a key is added or changed, and then give the option of accepting the key change, reverting back to the original key setting, or deleting the key.

    RegistryProt's most useful attribute is that it will detect the vast majority of Trojans at the exact moment that they infect/install themselves into your system, and as such provides a new dimension in Trojan and intrusion detection.

    http://www.diamondcs.com.au/web/htm/regprot.htm

    Newbie warning about DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0 when you very first install and activate this be off line.

    When you are prompted with a box for the very first time asking you if you want to keep this registry key type message click on yes repeatedly say yes to every thing.

    choose not to start it on start up option instead choose to run it manually by making a short cut on your task bar then click that when you go on line and start it up then

    Click on the -- mark on top of its box to minimize the box to your systems tray.

    also remember when you online with a windows computer

    windows has an automatic update feature so when your running DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0 in the back ground remember to look on the bottom right hand corner

    If you see a blue planet icon or a windows update icon and you get prompted by DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0 with a box at the same time windows update was going on click yes you whish to allow the change in registry its just windows updating.

    This also includes if you go to windows update web site for critical updates I suggest you turn off DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0 when your downloading updates could mess your download up at Microsoft update web page.

    After download if you are not prompted to restart your computer turn it back on and say yes.

    another note if your running windows me turn DiamondCS RegistryProt v2.0 just before you shut down your computer could cause your computer to not shut down properly

    0Click2 (6/22/00)
    0click2 is a small, simple, free program for users of Windows95, 98, NT and 2000 which allows you to "disconnect doubleclick from the Internet" and this in turn prevents their banner ads, their cookies and their tracking of your activities. 0click2 works by causing all referrals to double-click from any site to be blocked at your own computer. 0click2 works only with the standard Microsoft winsock for dialup networking, DSL, ISDN and cable modems and does not work with other winsock programs such as AOL(Compuserve), Trumpet Winsock or Twinsock. 0Click2 adds new functionality to allow you to choose to block other sites as well.

    DSOstop2 (new version 3/21/02)
    The "DSO Exploit" (Data Source Object) was first reported by GreyMagic Software of Israel on February 27, 2002 and a "workaround" for Microsoft's defective code was provided by Axel Pettinger and Garland Hopkins on March 3, 2002. Their fix requires the user to manually edit the registry. Many computer users are extremely nervous (and justifiably so) about doing this, owing to years of warnings and advisories not to. This FREE utility will safely do it for those who do not feel confident running and editing "Regedit." Read the details for more information and links to the registry modification instructions and test site.

    HTAstop (4/13/01)
    It's now possible for a "rogue" website to actually embed Trojans, worms and/or viruses directly into a web page. In the past, pages that offer seemingly attractive downloads which contain such malware required you to click to start any download to your computer. Now it's become automatic, using features in the Windows operating system known as scripting. These scripts can load programs without you knowing, and then they run immediately. All you have to do is visit the site, without doing anything besides viewing the page. HTAstop acts as a brickwall against these scripts, disabling them so the download doesn't occur. HTAstop protects you against one variety of script, our IEClean covers all twenty-seven.

    SockLock (2/17/99)
    If SockLock is used BEFORE you fall victim to Happy99 or other SKA class Trojan attack, it will protect you from infestations by this Trojan horse. You can actually download and enjoy the fireworks display presented by the Happy99 Trojan without any risk of infestation or spreading the Trojan further to other hapless victims as SockLock PREVENTS any SKA class Winsock infesting Trojan from being able to do anything more than display the cute distraction. They CANNOT infest your machine (or anyone elses) if SockLock has been used to lock your winsock against modification. SockLock also creates two 72 byte files which prevent SKA class Trojans from being able to install at all on your machine once you activate the protection using SockLock.

    NoScript
    Script Blocking
    If you are a home or small business customer, you should be running Norton Antivirus 2001 or later. Both programs can be configured to detect VBScripts when they are run, alert you to ones that are unknown or possibly malicious, and block them if necessary.

    ScripTrap
    ScripTrap traps scripts when they attempt to run on your computer and provides the option of blocking them or letting them continue to run. You can also check the intercepted script with your Anti-virus program before you decide to run it or not. This provides you with a chance of catching possibly malicious code before it causes damage. ScripTrap is particularly useful for trapping scripts that arrive in email attachments, such as the recent ILOVEYOU virus.The worst thing about many types of scripts is that they can operate without warning as a legitimate part or extension of another program. Most damaging of all are email attachments that contain scripts. If you open them in an email program that allows scripting they may execute before you even realize what you have done.

    best absolutley free spyware killers newbie friendly software

    SpyBot-Search & Destroy
    the perfect double check for Ad-aware. Covers: Aureate,CLPRS, Comet Cursors, eZula HotText, Gator, GoHip, Radiate, WebHancer, WildTangent etc.. Very useful extra features included
    SpyBot-S&D searches your harddisk for so-called spy- or adbots; little modules that are responsible for the ads many programs show. But many of these modules also transmit information about your surfing behaviour and more to the net.
    If SpyBot-S&D finds such modules, it can remove them - or replace them with empty dummies in case their host won't work any more with its bot removed. In most cases, the host software still runs after removing the bot.
    For a list of 'supported' bots see the feature lists below. Spybot-S&D works with an easy interface that allows updates by just replacing a file of about 1k size. Those updates come by my software mailinglist.Another feature of Spybot S&D is the removal of usage tracks, which makes it more complicated for unknown spybots to transmit useful data. The list of last visited websites, opened files, started programs, cookies, all that and more can be cleaned. Supported are the three mahjor browsers Internet Explorer, Netscape Communicator and Opera.Last but not least Spybot-S&D contains some routines to find and correct invalid entries into the registry.

    Required system files for TDS-3

    BOClean is a must for extra protection tds is more like a tank its fine for checking files and your computer for every Trojan known to man as will as execution protection but being online with it is a system resources hog for newbies I recommend using this off line or when executing a newly downloaded program or Trojan checking before hand or a complet computer check.

    Boclean how ever is a good back up while your on the inter net it kills Trojan and nastys trying to install and isn't a resource hog tds with boclean is a must.

    One protects you on line and the other off line
    get boclean here

    this is extremely newbie friendly no thinking at all a few suggestions when you get it
    first thing you do is click on it when your on the net after you install it click on the gray box that says Bo with the vacuum on your system tray hit check for update.

    go to configure boclean and
    and check the fist two box's and the 8th box are checked

    Sorry Blaze, but as stated quite clear, the "archives board" is for board archives only.

    That would be a pitty - it's a nice, personal job you performed. I for one do applaud you for your effort!

    regards.

    :) Hi MRBLAZE!

    You've done an excellent job here! It must have been a lot of work. Do not worry about it being buried. From time to time or as needed refer to it as the Newbie Survival Guide and give them this url:

    https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=4146

    Ain't nothin' buried when you got its url!

    Best regards from Larry! :cool:

    It looks clean enough, at this point, to do your own web pages for a security site. ;)

    Very good job MrBlaze, i would like to be able to jump to this often and promote it to others looking for handy hints. Is it possible for you to add this URL to your signature for easy access?
    And like the other people say, lots of stuff to fill pages in your own security web pages. Glad you have so much experience to share with us! Thanks a lot. Looking forward to next episodes!
