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...

My dad has been receiving emails and actual mail from picture.com saying that his picture is in one
of their books or movies or some other thing that they say it's in, and we found out that it was
a scam by looking through some other forums where people have ordered the 50 dollar items and it
hasn't even been delivered to them. Have any of you had this same experience and what did you
do about it?...

After reading the article it is obvious what the update was for besides adding in new services and
updates, however, it took all of what, two weeks to hack the IPhone? So I doubt it will that long
to figure out what apple change to disable the hack phones. I found this particular quote amusing,
"...company officials insisted they were "not proactively" trying to make hacked iPhones useless."
Heck I would if I knew I would be losing millions of dollars a month on a phone that that was hacked
and used by another phone provider, but like I said earlier it won't take ...

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...

Although I am bit surprise that no one really take about way back then, but it seems the hackers and
crackers I starting to use the microsoft update downloading to transmit there malware and torjans to
compromised computers. The reason being is that the Microsoft update program bypasses firewall
security protocals and so when that malware is getting download, your firewall and virus programs
will not pick it up. I know a few people turn it off and either download them manually or don't
download them at all. So to toss out a warning, when you get he windows update ...

Have a look and tell me what you think about this little script I have written. The plan is to
have this page on your website, at least in your web account, and when/if the Spam Bots find your
account and start scanning the site, they will see this page full of randomly generated email
addresses which they store into their database and when they go to use the addresses, they are all
bounced back to them instead of being delivered to real email accounts. The page links back to
itself, so each time you reload the page they receive another batch of false email addresse...

my brother has windows vista and told me that it is safer than other versions of windows but
according to other people they say that it has bugs and other stuff whick one of these are true?...

I was able to browse around this and found it interesting since this vunerability is found in 4
Microsoft Operating Sytems, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 2003 Server. From the
article Microsoft stated that their is a hole in the .ani files, which happen to be related tothe
mouse cursor, when the mouse icon changes depending on what you do. They only mention that with
this flaw it always hackers to break into someone computer and do their thing. But in another
article relating to this attack it was mention that in order for this to happen a user has ...

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
continue my tutorials due to this problem. It gets on my nerves as I think it was MY problem because
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...

I received an email in answer to my trap17 ad from another country. The "buyer" wants to send me a
money order and then I'm supposed to pay his "shipper" to pick up the item after deducting the
price of the item they are buying. I'm thinking if I accept his offer he will then ask me to
pay his "shipper" ahead of time (before receiving his money order) to speed things up. Am I being
paranoid or is this a scam? The amount of the money order is sizable. Much more than shipping
charges would be even if I use most expensive shipping method. That's why it so...

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

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...

I was wondering if any of you guys knew of any good pop email clients. I recently signed up for a
pop client, but I was wondering what the best client was. People say Outlook is full of bugs and
freezes constantly. I am told that open source is the way to go. I'm not familiar with any open
source pop clients. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated. I am running
Windows XP. QUOTE Thanks, magical1492 No "sign - offs, please add it to your sig block

I was happily browsing the web so I decided to check my Yahoo! email. I got like 4 emails that
were bounced back by Mail-Daemon. Apparently, I had tried to send this spam mail to some MSN
groups!? It was bounced back to me because I had to be a member of that group to send emails.

Look at that, scammers, trying to make some "cash". Whenever you get an email sent like this,
it's scam for sure. I didn't even sign up for anything, or gave my e-mail away, and I get a
coupld hundred thousand (in euros). I doubt it. What pure scam...I reported this to Yahoo!.

Wrong. I almost gave away my entire personal information about 3 years ago. And the fake messages
