Viruses

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 13:53:00 +0000

What is a virus?
A computer virus is a program that can make copies of itself. Most computer viruses do nothing more than this and are more of an annoyance than a danger. Some computer viruses, though, may also harm data and programs stored on a computer.

What types of viruses are there?

Program viruses infect computer programs and become active when the
infected program is run. Boot sector viruses infect diskettes and hard disks and become active when an infected disk is used to start the computer. (On a Macintosh, merely inserting an infected disk can activate a virus.) Macro viruses infect documents (files) through the macro programming capabilities of some newer programs. Macro viruses become active when an infected document is opened, and the program opening the document has its macro capabilities turned on (enabled). As of late 1997, only documents created with Microsoft Word version 6 or later (Windows and Macintosh versions), Excel (5.0 for Windows 3.x and Windows NT, and 7.0 for Win95), and Lotus Ami Pro have seen infections. However, in the future, it is likely that viruses will be created that can infect other types of documents.

•

What is not a virus?
Trojan horse programs are designed to do something (usually something malicious) other than their supposed purpose. Trojan horse programs are sometimes classified with viruses. However, because they don't make copies of themselves, they are not true viruses. Some programs are designed as a joke, or prank, but are not viruses. For instance, warnings of a virus incorporated in a mail message with the phrase "Good Times," "Join the Crew," or "Penpal Greetings" in the header have, at times, been rampant.

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 09:45:00 +0000

As many of you would have noticed - every time a Microsoft program crashes in Windows XP - and Error Report comes up allowing you to send some information on the crash to Microsoft. Well this can get quite annoying, so here is how you disable it.

Open Control Panel Click on Performance and Maintenance. Click on System. Then click on the Advanced tab Click on the error reporting button on the bottom of the windows. Select Disable error reporting. Click OK Click OK

On Screen Keyboard
Want to use an on screen keyboard? Well it is this simple - Click on the start button and select run. Then type in osk in the box and click OK.

Services You Can Disable
There are quite a few services you can disable from starting automatically. This would be to speed up your boot time and free resources. They are only suggestions so I suggestion you read the description of each one when you run Services and that you turn them off one at a time. • • • • Click Start->Settings ->Control Panel Click Performance and Maintenance Click Administrative Tools Double click Services

Some possibilities are:

Alerter - Sends alert messages to specified users that are connected to the server computer. Application Management - Allows software to tap directly into the Add/Remove Programs feature via the Windows Installer technology.

Fixing Your Internet Connection

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 09:43:00 +0000

The following instructions tell you how to find your IP address under Windows 2000 and Windows XP. These instructions will also help you find your MAC (hardware) address, DHCP server, DNS server and other useful information. They might help you troubleshoot a bad ResNet connection too. If you have Windows 95, 98 or Me, check out the instructions for using winipcfg instead. Go to the start menu and select Run.... Then type cmd in the box and click OK.

At the C:\> prompt type ipconfig . Then press Enter. Your IP address, subnet mask and default gateway will be returned to you. If your IP address is 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x, then you are receiving an internal IP address from a router or other device. The IP address that the world sees is that of the router. If you are receiving a 169.254.x.x address, this is a Windows address that generally means your network connection is not working properly.

If you want more detailed information about your network connection, type ipconfig /all at the prompt. Here you can get the same information as ipconfig with the addition of your MAC (hardware) address, DNS and DHCP server addresses, IP lease information, etc. If your IP address is 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x, then you are receiving an internal IP address from a router or other device. The IP address that the world sees is that of the router. If you are receiving a 169.254.x.x address, this is a Windows address that generally means your network connection is not working properly.

If you are having trouble with your ResNet connection, it may be fixed by releasing and renewing your IP address. Type ipconfig /release at the prompt and press enter. Then type ipconfig /renew and press enter again. If your connection is okay, a valid IP address, subnet mask and default gateway will be returned to you after a few seconds.

Manual steps to use Registry Editor

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:39:00 +0000

you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that result from incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. Editing the registry involves the following six types of procedures: • Locating a subtree, key, subkey, or value • Adding a subkey • Adding a value • Changing a value • Deleting a subkey or a value • Renaming a subkey or a value

Locating a subtree, key, subkey, or value

There are five top-level registry subtreesEach of them starts with "HKEY." In the following example, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE is the subtree, SOFTWARE is the key, and Microsoft is the subkey. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft In Registry Editor, you can search through the keys and subkeys in the same way that you search through your folders in Windows Explorer. The keys and the subkeys are listed in a folder tree in the left pane of Registry Editor. If you click a key or a subkey in the left pane, information about the value name, the value type, and the value data appears in the right pane. As in Windows Explorer, each folder may be expanded by clicking the plus sign (+) that is next to it. After a folder is expanded, the plus sign changes to a minus sign (-). Note When this article says to expand an item, click the plus sign next to that item.

To locate the Microsoftsubkey that is mentioned earlier in this section, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK. 2. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 3. Expand SOFTWARE. Click Microsoft. 4. Note When you click the Microsoft subkey, its values appear in the right pane. To view the next lower level of subkeys, expand the Microsoft subkey. To locate a value, click the subkey that contains the value, and then view the contents of the right pane.

Adding a key

To add a new subkey named TestSubkey to the Microsoft subkey, follow these steps: 1. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 2. Expand SOFTWARE. 3. Click the Microsoft subkey. 4. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key. 5. Type TestSubkey, and then press ENTER.

Adding a value

To add a new DWORD Value named TestDWORD and to set its value data to 1 in the TestSubkey key, follow these steps: 1. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 2. Expand SOFTWARE. 3. Expand Microsoft. 4. Click the TestSubkey subkey. 5. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value. 6. Type TestDWORD and then press ENTER.. 7. Right-click the TestDWORD DWORD Value, and then click Modify. 8. Type 1, and then click OK.

Changing a value

To change the value data for the TestDWORD DWORD Value to 0 in the TestSubkey key, follow these steps: 1. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

84

2. Expand SOFTWARE. 3. Expand Microsoft. 4. Click the TestSubkey subkey. 5. Right-click the TestDWORD DWORD Value, and then click Modify. 6. Type 0, and then click OK.

Manual steps to rename a key or value

To rename the TestSubkeysubkey to Test, follow these steps: 1. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 2. Expand SOFTWARE. 3. Expand Microsoft. 4. Right-click the TestSubkey key, and then click Rename. 5. Type Test, and then press ENTER.

Deleting a key or value

To delete the TestDWORD DWORD Value in the TestSubkey subkey, follow these steps: 1. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 2. Expand SOFTWARE. 3. Expand Microsoft. 4. Click the TestSubkey subkey. 5. Right-click the TestDWORD DWORD Value, and then click Delete. 6. Click Yes to confirm that you want to delete the value. For more information about editing the registry, follow these steps in Registry Editor: 1. On the Help menu, click Help Topics. 2. On the Contents tab, double-click Registry Editor. 3.

Manual steps to edit the registry

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:39:00 +0000

Use the Windows user interface
We recommend that you use the Windows user interface to change your system settings instead of manually editing the registry. However, editing the registry may sometimes be the best method to resolve a product issue. If the issue is documented in the Microsoft Knowledge Base, an article with step-by-step instructions to edit the registry for that issue will be available. We recommend that you follow these instructions very exactly.

Manual steps to export registry subkeys

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:37:00 +0000

You can follow these steps to export a registry subkey before you edit it. Note Do not follow these steps to export a whole registry subtree. (HKEY_CURRENT_USER is an example of such a subtree.) If you must back up whole registry subtrees, back up the whole registry instead. 1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK. 3. Locate and then click the subkey that contains the value that you want to edit. 4. On the File menu, click Export. In the Save in box, select a location where you want to save the Registration Entries 5. (.reg) file, type a file name in the File name box, and then click Save.

The Registry

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:37:00 +0000

What is the Registry? Windows Registry is a central database in Windows. The database contains most of the "pointers" and "settings" for Windows, programs, hardware and users. Pointers tell Windows or programs where to find the resources required to perform specific actions. The ways that many actions are (or are not) performed are controlled by settings. Just about any setting that you change -- either in Windows or a program -changes the registry. There are some notable exceptions. Firefox, Thunderbird and many other "wiser" programs avoid the Registry entirely by saving settings, etc. in their own file folders. Almost any time you are using your PC there are a swarm of things going on behind the scenes in the Registry, almost like bees around a hive. (In fact, the major elements of the Registry are called hives.)

Hives
The (last known good) Registry is stored in Registry Hives: Six of them are located in C:\Windows\System32\Config\ default SAM SECURITY software system userdiff There is one more hive for each user located in C:\Windows\\Documents and Settings\\ ntuser.dat However, the hives are not the Registry: The Registry hive files are, strictly speaking, not the Registry. The registry is a dynamic thing that exists in memory only. The Registry only exists when Windows is running. It is built by Windows from the Hives, and other hardware information, during the startup process. The Registry Editor makes the structure of the actual Registry visible as keys and values, in much the same way that Windows Explorer makes folders and files visible. You can also "edit" the keys and values with the Registry Editor, which is similar to editing folders and files with Windows Explorer.

Root Keys
Root Keys: Keys are like folders for files. Each key -- and in turn, each sub-key -- can contain sub-keys, one default value, and as many other values as needed.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -- (HKLM) contains information about hardware, and settings that apply globally. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT -- (HKCR) contains file associations, OLE information and other system settings. HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG -- settings specific to the current hardware configuration. HKEY_USERS -- (HKU) contains settings specific to all "logged on" users of the machine. HKEY_CURRENT_USER (HKCU) -- contains settings specific to the current user (the one with control).

Notice that there are really only 2 root keys. The others are sub-sets or pointers for sections of the 2 root keys. Do not confuse root keys with Registry hives. Hives are where the registry information is stored when Windows is not running. In a sense, the Directory is a dynamic thing that exists only in memory. Building the Registry Windows builds most of the Directory when it boots up, and the rest when you log on. Windows gets most of its information from the registry hive files. Information about hardware is obtained from the hardware and hardware drivers (files) when Windows boots. The registry is dynamic. Changes are retained in memory and recorded in *.log files. Windows also uses the *.log files to write the changes to the hives when you restart Windows. The Registry is primarily there to coordinate the operation of Windows, hardware and the installed programs. Editing is merely a subsidiary aspect of the Registry.

The text on Web pages is too small to read

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:36:00 +0000

Some Web designers love to torture the public by putting up Web pages with small text. Or, perhaps that's just my excuse for my aging eyes. Thankfully, Internet Explorer contains a useful setting to change Web page text on the fly. Solution #1: Make the text larger on a single Web page To enlarge the text on the Web page you're currently viewing 1.On the View menu in Internet Explorer, point to Text Size, and then click Larger.

Enlarge the text on a single Web page 2.If the text still seems small, go to the View menu, point to Text Size, and then click Largest. This choice works only on a page-by-page basis. The solution enlarges the text only on the page you're currently viewing. The next Web page you go to will have the text back to the original size. If you're finding all Web pages difficult to read, you may want to change your monitor settings. Check out the next solution for more information on this. Solution #2: Bump up your monitor display size To increase your screen resolution 1.1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel. 2.2. In Control Panel, double-click Display. The Display Properties dialog box appears. 3.3. Click the Settings tab. Adjust the Screen resolution slider to one of the following screen settings (see Figure 5): •800 x 600 •1024 x 768 •1280 x 1024 Adjust your screen resolution 4. Click Apply. The Display Properties dialog box remains open, in case you need to tweak your screen resolution some more. When you're satisfied, click OK.

How to Disable Internet Explorer Error Reporting

noreply@blogger.com (:-)) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:33:00 +0000

To disable Internet Explorer Error Reporting, use one of the following methods, depending on your computer.

Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP
1. Click Start, click Run, and then type sysdm.cpl in the Open box. 2. Click Advanced, and then click Error Reporting. Click Disable error reporting to disable both user and kernel-mode error 3. reporting, or click to clear the Programs check box. 4. Click OK two times.

Internet Error Messages
It happens to all of us. We're surfing along, and up comes an error (usually 404). What do all those error codes mean? Here's a quick rundown of the most common.

Error numbers and what they mean

400 - Bad Request - You probably typed in a URL wrong, the server has no clue what you're looking for, or you aren't allowed to have access. Usually, it's a matter of the URL being typing in wrong. Maybe you mixed upper and lowercase letters or something. 401- Unauthorized Request - you tried to get to something on the web server you're not allowed to play with. In other words, you ain't on the party list. 403 - Forbidden - You can't access the page. You may not have access (it may require a password), or it may be blocked from your domain. 404- Not Found - The page you were trying to look at was not found on the server. This is probably the most common error you'll come across. What has probably happened is that the web page you were going to has been removed or re-named. Keep going backwards in the URL and you'll usually come up with the site you're after. Then you can look for the lost page from there. Another possibility is that your Internet connection has gone dead. Try re-logging on. 500 - Internal error - Usually caused by a CGI error. You fill out a form, but the script used to process it is not working properly.

You get annoying pop-ups when you surf the Internet
Maybe this sounds familiar? You're surfing the Internet and access a Web page. Suddenly, you're bombarded with a slew of blinking pop-up advertisements all over your screen. Sometimes there are so many, you can't even see the original Web page you wanted to view. Adware (a form of spyware) causes these pop-ups. Adware is software that displays Web-based advertisements. Adware often installs onto your PC without you realizing it. For example, simply clicking on a hyperlink can load adware onto your PC. Not only are pop-ups annoying, but they use system resources, thus slowing your PC down. The following solutions provide methods for both blocking and removing adware from your PC. 74

Solution #1: Install anti-spyware software The best way to keep pop-ups off your PC is to install and run some anti-spyware software. Available for free, the following are all great products that remove spyware off your PC: •Microsoft Windows Defender •Spybot •Ad-Aware •X-Cleaner When running any of these programs, make sure you check for updates. (These programs all have some "Check for Updates" functionality.) If after running any one of the programs you still find pop-ups coming up, try installing and running all of these programs. One of these programs may catch certain types of spyware better than the others. Between all four programs, you should be able to catch any spyware that may find its way onto your PC. Solution #2: Block pop-ups with Internet Explorer Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) contains a pop-up blocker for Internet Explorer. Installing this service pack will prevent many pop-ups from bombarding you as you view Web pages. Learn about Windows XP SP2 and what you need to know to install it. To change the pop-up blocker settings 1.On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, point to Pop-up Blocker, and click Pop-up Blocker Settings.

Access the Pop-up Blocker Settings dialog box 2.In the Address of Web site to allow box, type the addresses of the Web sites for which you'd like to allow pop-ups. Then, click Add. 3.You can increase (or decrease) the pop-up filter level using the Filter Level box. 4.Once you've made the appropriate changes to the pop-up blocker, click Close. Here are two notes to keep in mind with the Pop-up Blocker: •Hold down the CTRL key while a pop-up opens to temporarily disable the Pop-up Blocker. (This allows you to see a blocked pop-up.) •The Pop-up blocker will not block pop-up windows containing confirmation details (such as confirming an online order you've just made). Top of page

You receive error messages on the Web pages you view
How many times have you been surfing the World Wide Web and received some strange error message.

Error message from a Web page The good news is that this message isn't caused by anything that's wrong with your PC. The error is with the Web page you're viewing. The Web designer who created the Web page made an error in the JavaScript—the programming language used to automate certain areas of a Web page. You can't fix the Web page. The best you can do is contact someone at the Web site and let them know the page has errors. However, you can prevent this message box from being displayed. Unless you're a Web designer working with JavaScript, you have no reason to see if Web pages have errors. Solution: Turn off JavaScript Error Messages 1.On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, point to Internet Options. The Internet Options dialog box is displayed. 2.Select the Advanced tab. 3.Scroll down the list. Click to select the Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer) check box.

Turn off the disable script debugging functionality 4.Press OK. You won't see these error messages again. This doesn't turn off the JavaScript—only the error messages that are displayed when there's a problem with JavaScript on a Web page.
