Hi Guys, I've had a problem with my computer. I thought it restarted only when using the
internet but I was wrong. I found out that isn't the denominator. I tried disabling the internet
to run a virus scan and the scan can't complete as the computer restarts too often. I followed
the following instructions to read the dmp file the restart error generates. 1) Download and
install the http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/deb...installx86.mspx Debugging Tools from
Microsoft 2) Locate your latest memory.dmp file- C:\WINDOWS\ Minidump\Mini0...

SOURCE Well it seems that Microsoft found a huge hole in MSN Messenger that was bad enough that
they want people to upgrade to the current Messenger which is Live 8.1 or something like that. As
for details on the problem they just said the following, "..which let hackers embed malicious code
in Web chat invitations to users." and that they found this problem in "6.2, 7.0 and 7.5, as well as
Windows Live Messenger 8.0." Although it was interesting to know that people were actually
complaining about Live Messenger being a resource hog, well the last time I check msn w...

My uncle said Microsoft are going to be sending viruses out via Windows Updates, he said if you do

Here is the deal. I got this video ipod recently and it turns out that it had a worm on it. I was
only one fo the few but it did have one. The virus is called RavMonE Virus. Here is a link to find
out more about it. more info It doesn't affect macs only windows based computers. I plugged
it up to the computer and my antivirus detected a worm and I was very surprised. I did some
research and it turns out that some contracted company who builds the ipods for apple had computers
connected to the ipods and they had been infected. These computers were windows...

Windows has been acting strangely by now, it freezes/clogs badly, I can't use Opera, MF or

I deleted MOST of the files in the Temp folder. CODE (Start>Run...>%Temp%)
That folder, most of the files were deleted by me. I consulted my friend by half-screwed MSN, he
said I "effed me up the arse" by doing that. He recommended me backing up and formatting. I never
did that before so I think it will be most-likely half-impossible for me. And as I d...

We all know the difference between a limited user and an administrator user under Win2k/XP - you
can't/can install major software, perform system maintainence, and other stuff. But using a
limited user on a day-to-day basis also provides you with decent protection from a bunch of threats:
if the malware is running under your limited-rights user, it can only do as much as you can. For
instance, a limited rights user can't edit the HKLM hive of the Registry, so any malware running
under the same user won't be able to touch that area. It's extremely simple t...

QUOTE Microsoft has alerted users of a virus that enters PCs through the PowerPoint program. The
virus attaches itself to a contaminated presentation that when accessed installs a keylogging
software on a computer. Users are being warned to take precautions because Microsoft patch that
guards against the security loophole will still be tentatively released on August 8. Reports say
the virus has infected relatively few people with the poisoned presentation. Malicious hackers used
the bug found in PowerPoint 2000, 2002 and 2003. Security experts report that the vir...

QUOTE IT security experts have warned of a worm that purports to be Microsoft's Windows
Genuine Advantage (WGA) anti-piracy tool. WGA has recently been branded as 'spyware' in
that it collects unnecessary hardware and software data from users' PCs. The Cuebot-K worm
spreads via AOL Instant Messenger, registering itself as a new system driver service called
'wgavn'. It carries the display name 'Windows Genuine Advantage Validation
Notification', and runs automatically during system startup. Once in place the worm disables

A friend of mine was temporarily banned from the computers at my school a while ago after he
accidentially found a way into Task Manager, which is disabled on our network. He has had his
permissions restored now, but has no idea why he got banned in the first place. However, recently he
explained what he did to me, and I tested it. I soon found out that, by accident, we had both
discovered that there is a Security Exploit in networking Windows XP Professional. The exploit is
to do with network permissions. Windows XP recieves the permission data from the network as soon...

Stepping up its fight against computer threats at the risk of alienating security businesses,
Microsoft announced Tuesday it will give away a program to combat privacy-stealing and PC-clogging
