I would like to block a certain IP address from having any connection to my network, and I don't recall how IPSec works, or if it even works in Windows 7. In class, we learned it on XP. how to prevent this IP from contacting me ever again?
View 1 RepliesI'm looking to block a specific network both wired and wirelessly and wondering if there is a way to do this. I spend to much time on the internet when at home. I can now lock the computers so that during specific times I can't access the home network. HOWEVER I would like to configure one laptop computer so that it can't hook up to the home network at all. Not being able to connect with the network either hard wire or wirelessly. I want to be able to take that computer to other locations though and be able to hook up wirelessly to them. So in other words I couldn't connect to the home network but can connect to other networks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI made a post awhile back about a HDD making clicks, as though the arm was resetting. Occasionally while accessing files explorer freezes. I however noticed this has (so far) only occurred at a specific point of disk usage.I'm hoping I can some how amputate the bad section of the drive so it is never read or written to, or even seen for that matter. There are no disk errors in a scan, so I just want to cut a chunk out of it and hope for the best. Is there a safe way to do this?

View 0 Replies View RelatedWe have a NAS on our network which I would like to block some remote desktop users from using. So far I tried creating a two custom inbound/outbound rules to block the ip address but it does not seem to have any effect - anyway I don't think there is a way to apply it to specific users.
Another thing I have done via MMC Management Console is follwed the guide here (XP but similar enough to follow for 7) [URL]
Basically, created a IP security policy to block the ip address under "IP Security policies" snap in. This works but unfortunately cant see how to apply it to specific users only.
It used to happen that when I wanted to send an email all I had to do was type in the first letter of the email address in the 'TO' box and a list would come up with all emails that started with that letter. So i could just click the one I wanted and it would autimatically fill the box of with the email address that I wanted to send. Now suddenly it doesn't do that anymore.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow would I go about assigning different ip addresses (static) to different programs? Ill give you an example of what I mean. There is a Popular game called Minecraft (I don't know if you have heard it before, but It might help if you do know about this game) but I am planing on hosting multiple minecraft servers on one server (machine). So how do I get more static ip addresses (on one machine) so I can host more than one server on one machine?
since minecraft uses the port : 25565 would I be able to host a website on the same static ip address as a minecraft server since websites use different ports?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy previous laptop ran XP. I backed up my outlook .pst file to an external hard drive. My new laptop runs Win7. After installing Outlook I imported the .pst file. At first everything seemed perfect but then I started realizing that the master category list is not there. Also, the address book had none of my addresses associated with the entries. Only new ones appeared and then not in their proper categories. What can I do to remedy this situation? I feel the categories and addresses must be somewhere in my computer because when I open a contact, I can click on the email icon and send mail.

I am trying to piggy back my address book and messages from Outlook Express on my old WinXP PC to Thunderbird 64bit on my new Windows7 PC. I have imported the address book and messages from Outlook Express on my old PC into a 32 bit version of Thunderbird on the old PC but cannot get any further.
I noticed that my WLM categories were somehow corrupted and missing some names. When I click the category on the left, in the list of names on the right they are all there. However when clicking edit I notice some addresses are missing. They are also missing when attempting to send mail. When I add the missing addresses and click save they are not actually saved. I tried deleting the category and making a new one and that seemed to work for a while but the next time I logged onto WLM the same names were missing again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to print out a christmas card list using mail merge in Word. I've entered the names and addresses and the list is fine but when I try to print the addresses on the envelopes, they don't align properly on the envelopes. I've tried different size envelopes from the list provided by Word but the only two that print properly are the size 6 3/4 and the size 9. Unfortunately, I cannot find christmas cards that size. I also tried the custom option on the envelope list to size an envelope but that doesn't work either.
On the menu, I've tried manually adjusting the position of the address block instead of using the auto choice but that doesn't work either. I use an H P C 4700 series printer and I am inserting the envelope properly (along the left side of the paper feed). I've also downloaded lotus symphony and open office in the hope that the printing would work in their wps but there was a file recognition problem. I have used Word 2002 and the Microsoft Word Starter 2010 and my printer works fine.
My ISP is Time Warner, and I have been very satisfied with their broadband service in the 7 or so years that I have been with them. Lately, however, I decided to subscribe to their 'Turbo Plus' product, which guarantees 20 Mbps download and 2 Mbps upload speeds, or 20 x 2. I wanted this for a better gaming experience, and the faster downloading of large files, such as video files. With installing the new 20 x 2 service, Time Warner installed a new Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 Wireless N Broadband Modem / Router.However, since the new device was put in, I have been getting 'DNS errors' on my PC and other devices, such as "Error - Server not found in DNS".
I never received these with the previous device or service, so I believe that they are related to the new device's settings. I was advised by a tech person that I know to subscribe to the OpenDNS service, and then 'simply' change the DNS IP addresses in the router. Unfortunately, I cannot find a place to set these in the router. There is, however, a place for Dynamic DNS, which uses [URL] I am able to change the DNS IP addresses in my Windows 7 network and sharing center, but this does not help my iPhone, PSP, or other devices on my network. Also, from the OpenDNS site, I read that it is 'better' to make the change in the whole network (router), rather than on each individual device.
Is it better to have the proper DNS addresses in the hardware versus the software on each device? Is there a way to change the DNS addresses in the Motorola SBG6580 that maybe I am just overlooking? Should I purchase new networking equipment, and if so, what brand do you recommend? [I have been somewhat satisfied with the Cisco Valet line, but they seem to only want to help me with that line, and not with helping me solve the overall (new) problem, which I thought would be an opportunity for them to sell new equipment.They told me that what I could get from them, the WCG-200, was available from Time Warner, and that I could then just 'cascade' my Cisco Valet (wireless N) router from that device.] If it gets me a better result in the end run, then I am willing to purchase new equipment. However, I am also on a 'fixed' income, so I can't afford to make purchases that are not necessary, either.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have bought a new computer with Windows 7 preinstalled. Before setting it up I backed up all my outstanding emails (204 .dbx files) and email addresses (one .wab file size 176kb) from my old computer on to a memory stick. I now want to import them into Windows Live Mail. I have gone through the recommended procedure for the emails, but only some of them have come across. I have been totally unable to import the addresses. The only procedures I have found seem to relate to a different version of Live Mail because they tell me to click on things that don't appear on my screen!It occurs to me that maybe not all the messages are being imported because I haven't imported the relevant contact details. Could this be the case? By the way I can't go back to the old computer as it has completely died, which is why I replaced it.

in windows vista I could block startup programs i didn't want using up system resources, but with windows 7 I cant find a way of doing that, I understand its always a good idea to have normal startup mode instead of selective in misconfiguration. but in vista I could simply block programs in component services but the ones I want to block are not even listed in windows 7! is this the wrong place to look or is blocking startup programs not an option in windows 7?
