Re: Security discussion regarding hubs, firewalls, anti-virus and

Have you made sure your machine is clean. Are you logged into an account
with full admin. rights. What steps other than these 2 have you tried? Feel
free to email Microsoft and I know they will be glad to help you if we cannot
get it to run here but I will do my best and let others chime in if they
would like.

1. Better to have a wired connection --- like using a wired landline phone
compared to using a cordless set where people can pick up the signal and
block or mess with your telephone transmission if they have the right
equipment -- suggest a DSL blocker as well as other appropriate security
safeguards

2. I would suggest using Windows Live One Care --- I for one like the
package suite-- not as good and comprehensive as others but no false
positives so far on my side which I see as a big thumbs up

3. Software Packages are now debatable and up for grabs in whose in the
best due to the increasing number of false positives that many have

4. Windows Vista has great external security from NT (New Technology)
source code but lacks internal safety of 9x (98 Second Edition) that has a
maintenance operating system built within Disk Operating System according to
Chris Quirke, mvp.

5. User Account Control needs advanced customization features -- I have
already mentioned this to Microsoft like IE has advanced cookie handling
allowing blocking of 3rd party cookies and session cookies

6. LinkSys routers are junk in my opinion and within military circles as
well -- better choices of Netgear and Belkin exist -- do not go with default
passwords -- create your own

7. Block external code, read in plain text, use Microsoft's password
generator to get a strong password and have fun and relax as I am slowly
beginning to do again as DNS Pollution is now weaker due to more complex
variables and other stuff.

Thanks for the info.

I looked at a websit with Live One Care:

http://onecare.live.com/site/en-au/default.htm?mkt=en-au#

I tried to drag it to a folder on my links so I could access it
later. It told me I did not have access to do it!!!!!!!!!????
I was able to get around it be just adding it to just the links
instead of the folder in the links. I never had the problem before,
but this is what I mean. N o explanation as to why I don't have
access. I looked at the folder and I appear to have full rights.
What the heck is going on here I wonder?
