I recently had some nasty spy/malware on my computer and it took me some time to get rid of it and I noticed today that I have Broadjump Client Foundation among my Programs list under Add/Remove Programs. I also am getting what I think is a bogus spyware popup alert every now and then that reads something like: Critical System Warning. Your system is probably infected with latest version of Spyware.CyberLog-X more spelling/ grammar errors and then an option to "donwload antispyware software". I'm wondering if it's that Broadjump Client Foundation because I don't recognize that at all.
First off I wish to let anyone who helps know that I do this for a living and this is for a customer. If you sucessfully answer this though I promise to donate to the forums really.I have a customer running Windows XP Home hooked up to a DSL line. Only 1 user can get access the internet. In that account its fine. In all other accounts I can't do anything get online. Ping a a URL address etc.I checked and all acounts are set up as administrators. I ran scans with Ad-Aware and SpyBot SD. While I did clean out a lot of junk (including Virtual Bouncer and Spyware Stormer) I still can't get online with any other accounts. Also I can't get online if I boot into safe mood with networking as admin. I know this is either a REALLY simple setting some where or a horribly complex problem.
I have a laptop here with an apparently dead CD drive, that needs a fresh OS load. Has anyone ever successfully loaded XP from a USB jump drive. I don't want to boot XP from the jump drive, but rather want to install it to the systems hard drive, using the usb jump drive. all advice appreciated. If there is no method to do this, how hard is it to set it up to run over the network. I have imaged my XP cd to a .iso file. Can probably convert it if need be...
OK, I don't know *what's* going on, I'm just hoping it isn't a virus. Whenever I'm typing, be it an email, posting on a board like this etc, my cursor will suddenly jump back up a few lines or even way back up into the subject title field. It's very annoying, as I've got to constantly mouse to where I belong to fix typing over previous sentences.
can any one help why is it when i am typing on my laptop the cursor will jump to the middle of the document or as it has just done dropp to the bottom of page.
I brought a Lexar JumpDrive key memory of 256Mb. One day, after 6 month of use I saw the disk space was reduced to: 205,599,232 bytes196MB..There is a problem with the memory stick? Or is caused by using several USB mass storage devices?
There are two excellent spyware removal apps available and they are both FREE so there is no reason to not use them regularly. The two best apps there are for removing spyware are SpyBot Search & Destroy and Ad Aware. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU USE BOTH OF THESE APPS SINCE ONE FINDS WHAT THE OTHER MISSES AND VICE VERSA, YOU ARE NOT SAFE USING JUST ONE OF THEM. There is one other app that I HIGHLY recommend is for spyware prevention, SpywareBlaster. This app sets certain registry entries that prevent spyware from ever installing, it DOES NOT run in the background using any resources, you just set it and forget it. Once you have installed these three MUST HAVE apps you then need to update them and keep them up to date. I would recommend checking for updates weekly, it’s just like your antivirus app, you need to stay protected from the latest spyware out there. To update SpyBot just open the app from your start menu (use the advanced mode option) and select “search for updates” it will then show you what updates are available for download, always install all the updates. Another feature that SpyBot has is called “Immunize”, you will see an icon for it. Select the icon and under “Permanent Internet Explorer Immunity” select “Immunize” this works in the same way as SpywareBlaster in blocking new spyware. It also gives you the option of locking your hosts file against hijackers, I highly recommend using this option as well. To update Ad Aware just open it and select “Check for updates now”. For SpywareBlaster it is mostly the same, open it up and select “Check for updates” once you update this you then must select “select all” and then “Protect against checked items” so that the updates you just did take effect. Anything these apps find is spyware and should be removed, if you choose not to remove what is found then you have no one to blame if your pc crashes due to spyware or your privacy is invaded (including these companies stealing your credit card number and identity
I'm experienceing problems running the internet. Each time I try connecting tho the Net, despite changing the default homepage which has been changed to c:secure32.html I get a warning message about spyware I have also run Spybot Search and Destroy and the Lavasoft Ad-ware and removed all of the critical objects.
My PC is infected with some bad stuff and I'm not sure what to do. So far I have tried to run Spybot S&D, Registry mechanic, ewido anti-spyware, Spyware Doctor and SpywareBlaster all of these programs seize when carrying out a scan and I have no option but to close the pc down with the power button. I am pretty much at a loss as what to do next and was hoping one of you kind souls could help me. I am running xp.
I am connecting to a Windows 2003 Server using Remote Desktop. The client PC is running Windows XP. No client printers show up on the server. I have installed the drivers on both server and client. I have selected connect to printers in RDC logon options
I have tested the TS client capability on PPC 2003 and it works but I find it unsatisfactory because of the need to scrol the window. Does anyone know of a third-party solution, or, for that matter, a Microsoft solution to this problem. I guess that what it would mean is to have the window scaled down to fit the size of the PDA display, in this case a Dell Axim X5.
I have a Windows network using SBS Server 2003 all the clients are only using drive mapping not actually logging in to the domain. I setup openVPN on one Windows PC and opened the ports on the router. When I log in to openVPN I get an error when using a Windows PC as the client. status=55 The specified network device or resource is no longer available. I have seen this error on other forums by searching but no fixes for it. My son can log in and see the network using linux, so it must be an XP problem.
Alright this is the first time I see something like this:i am working on a client's pc an I cannot connect to the internet.
PC specs: Compaq, Presario M2000. XP HOme.
Both the Local and Wireless connection gave a message saying the network didn't assign the computer an IP Address.So I went to Properties, Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and manually assigned both the IP address, Subnet Mask and Dafault Gateway, so now the Local area it's connected and the wireless too (with excelletn signal). but I am not able to go online yet
I was testing my FTP server tonight and when I connect to the home directory there's two folders that show up (RECYCLER and System Volume Information) in the home directory that shouldn't be there. When I go into my home directory in Windows Explorer these folders don't show up there, even if I choose to show the hidden files. If I can't get these folders to show up in Windows Explorer I can't exclude them from showing up in my FTP Server software. Is it possible that they show up in my FTP client because I'm connecting to the same machine the server is on? That's all I can come up with.
i need to install to install Microsoft firewall client but when i install i get following msg "the windows installer service could not be accessed. this can occur if your running windows in safe mode. or if the windows installer is not correctly installed. contact your support personnel for assistance"
My host PC (my desktop) is running an ASUS P5PE-VM with 1gig DDR PC3200 Crucial RAM, has a Intel DualCore E2180 @ 2GHZ. I use a dial-up connection, and even though it is dial-up, my connection speed averages from 52Kbps to 54.3Kbps. So its actually pretty good for dial-up. My OS is Win XP wit SP2. I think that pretty much covers the important basics. My client PC (my laptop) is an ACER Aspire 3100 w/ 512MB DDR2 It has an AMD Sempron 3200 @ 1.6GHZ w/512KB of L2 Cache. It also has an 802.11 b/g wireless Lan. I installed a wireless card (Belkin Wireless G desktop card) in my desktop (host) and set up an ad-hoc network between the two. Basically I set up a wireless network without a router. I've done this before and had no problem, however this time I cannot connect to the internet using the client (my laptop). Everything appears to be in order, ICS is enabled on the host, Firewall in configured, communication between the two is there, I verified by pinging both IP's using ipconfig. The host is able to connect to the internet and browse with out no problem. its just the client I am haveing trouble with. Could it be a DNS problem? When I open IE on the client it just displays the 'cannot display web page', I even tried pinging the web page and am successful in that, it just wont display the web page. Am I missing something?
I'd like to get my log on screen back ( xp style ), but the Client Services for NetWare disabled the Welcome screen and Fast User switching. Please, someone, point me on how to unistall CSNW so I can get my logon creen back.
This isn't about my machine.client's PC.Computer is an IBM ThinkCenter, P4 with SATA HD. It's very slow in responding.needs some defrag, but not enough to cause all the slowness experienced. Ran checkdisk in read only...found errors in the I130 file. Ran again in /r and /f modes, and it didn't find any issues. Ran again from within WinXP in read only...same errors found. The hard drive is a Hitachi (yeah, I know) Deskstar.Have run msconfig to clear out non-essential programs. No detectable spyware using (yeah, I know) Spybot or Adaware Personal.Currently running SFC /scannow and will run a defrag when complete but wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions/ideas.
what i'm after is a newsgroup that discusses how to create a website and uploading it with a ftp client. i need step by step basic info on uploading the website files using ftp client and how to proceed from then on.
Are there any more sophisticated packages out there that can connect to standard Remote Desktop enabled Windows machine?I need to connect to several remote computers on a regular basis, and would like something that would remember my login settings for each one of them. The standard Remote Desktop Connection client that come with Windows 2000 only seems to remember the settings for *one* connection. (Or are there perhaps some call arguments that I could put into the shortcut, in order to define certain login parameters?)
Whenever I click on any mail link, rather than opening my default mail client, my computer spawns numerous IE windows, nearly freezes, and delivers this message:Could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed.So I was unable to add the suggested string value.
Ok, this is the deal...I did the disk cleaner several times and it still wont delete the 40,764KB. I would be very happy if I only had 32KB but that is not my case.
I am searching for a Software like Outlook with fallowing Features. The Admin Can Configur the Mail ID which the user can send only to that ID through User Login. if have multiple options like option-2 as workgroup and Only one Mail ID to send mail through internet.
Operating System virtualization on the client side has many benefits including better security and more flexibility. Depending on the resources available on your computer you can setup an entire virtual lab running numerous operating systems for testing. Additionally, virtualization allows you to test software and perform other activities in a sandbox environment that will not affect your primary operating system. You can infect your VM (virtual machine) but the rest of your computer will be safe.
I recently installed VPN client on my windows XP sp3 pc, and I started to experience network issues. My can no longer pick up any wireless signals. I see no wireless network available. My wire network does not appear to be working either. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem,
