One day I was bored so I set a password for our Web security software, Trend Micro Internet
Security. I turned on the URL filter, and now, whenever my friends send me something funny that has
no porn or anything in it, I get the Blocked error. I am really annoyed by this; I can't change
other setting in the software too. Is there any way to either reset the password or remove it,
without uninstalling Trend Micro?...

test your browser for security holes: http://bcheck.scanit.be/bcheck/ This checks for the most
commonly occurring security vulnerabilities in the major browsers.In total there are some 40 tests
and may take a long time to finish. I have run this test on 4 browsers: 1)IE 7 : 0 vulnerabilities
(but the browser goes crazy, opening several windows and applications) 2)IE 6 : 1 medium risk (the
browser goes crazy like IE7) 3)Firefox 2.0.0.3: 1 medium risk (i think some plugin might have caused
this as some others have had different results) 4)Opera 9.2: 0 vulnerabilities ...

I am baout to make a website and even make it so people can post stuff to ceratain pages. I know
how to make the basic password and username protected site but I do not know how to blovk isp's.
Are there any good ways to do this. What I mean is that if one member does somethign wrong I could
blovk his isp for a while or prevent him from psoting at all. If there is a way how could I even
find his isp? would that come from cookies? I am new to the security / site traffic software so I
really don't know. thanks...

Safety Seat Belts & Car Accidents "Car accidents are the leading cause of
death, as well as loss of work time. " Wearing seat belts
will reduce injuries and save lives. It can also save millions of dollars for American businesses.
In 1984, car crashes left about 4,200 workers with lost jobs. It also affects the lost of
productivity, insurance, and medical costs to those individuals that do not wear their seat belt.
The second leading cause of death is heart attacks. It accounts for twelve percent of death i...

The nuclear safety adviser in Maine is being paid $71,000 a year and yet there is no nuclear
plants in Maine. Maine lawmakers were supposed to remove the funding for the nuclear safety adviser
position yet again but the funding was snuck back in last minute. The crazy thing however is that
there is no such post. In 2005 the Legislature cut the position however they did not cut the funding
for it so the nuclear safety adviser is being paid a $71,000 salary plus benefits and office
expenses totaling $118,000. In 2004 an agreement was reached where by the ...

I think we should have a subforum to specifically discuss safety issues, problems, threat on the
street, downtown, our homes, foreign countries, remote places etc. Also to share some practical tips
to protect and defend ourselves. We don't wanna live in fear. For example : JAKARTA (JP): Two
women, both foreign nationals, were robbed Saturday night in a taxi they hailed in Kemang. At
around 9 p.m., the two women entered a taxi on Jl. Kemang Raya in South Jakarta. After driving for
several minutes on the same road, the driver slowed the taxi and two men jumped into ...

I saw this white paper and I thought I bring down some interesting information that has come from
2007 and leading into 2008. I have to say though that the information on this white paper is pretty

since last year it is not all that surprising since I posted many topics about it as well.

Hey everyone, if you read my blog, you will probably see my post about Comodo software. If not,
I'll talk about it on the forums! You know, spending 50$ for a spyware scanner is
tough, you also need to spend that same money on Antivirus, Firewalls etc. Comodo however, is an
amazing company that offers all these products for free. And no, they aren’t stripped down versions
that are made to promote paid products… because that’s the thing. They don’t have paid products.
They’re just some rich company who sell SSL certificates (which can cost over 1000$ f...

The Galapagos Art Space had a break in and almost lost items valued at about $300,000. However
this theft was not what you would expect. It was not some famous painting, or a sculpture or
anything else most thieves would steal, it was the security equipment that was supposed to stop
them. The building was undergoing renovations to make it eco-friendly when the theives entered
through a hole under the door sometime after 6pm on Jan 15. The next morning workers found the

Well I have to same I am bit surprise on this security flaw especially what it can do; in which all
a user has to do is open a malicious Excel document and it allows the hackers to execute remote code
on to your system. As far as how wide spread this vulnerability is, it hits every excel software
from Excel 2000 to Excel 2003 SP2, and it also includes the Mac Version of Excel 2004 as well. OF
course with the disappointment of Office 2007 by some people will still be running the 2003 versions
on their computers. Right now the attacks are minimal and the question for t ...

Well, today I learned in my school (I'm in 9th grade) that the network has no security at all.
Most public schools, as I have learned, don't protect themselves, they hire somebody when
something goes wrong. I believe this is truly wrong. I was in the Computer Lab doing an important
test over the Net, and the internet go shutdown. Apparently somebody hacked it. They didn't have
access to it until they called the Network Security guy down to fix it. This is pretty bad. What do
you guys think? ~Seemliss Topic title modified. ...
