Lest it help anyone think of how -- ;) -- I found the following and from a guagues perspective it seems about right. I cant see any info on how it was done though: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.10/makeover.html -- View image here...

mm. sadness thus far. I want Temp too. -- :) --

Im working on a case mod and I'd like to have some old-school lookin gauges to show CPU usages, disk activity, & memory usage. Think 50's cockpit and thats what I want. I'ven the coolermaster dials and thats about what I want except I dont care about voltage and audio. Any ideas on where I can...

boot from floppy format c: your registry will now be small. ;)

Id recommend a few things.. (first, remember deny all should be your default) 1. Go get the o'reilly book on firewalls by Zwicky. Its a good refrence on things. 2. Go read the IPFilter configuration how-to at http://www.obfuscation.org/ipf/. i KNOW your not using IPF, but the general...

Er.. most people have switches at home these days. They are damn cheap - i hardly see actual hubs anymore. The differnce between a switch and a hub is that a switch only routes traffic between source and destination host ports - a hub broadcasts all traffic to all ports. This mean if you are on...

Ok - a few things: (AP = access point) WEP does suck. The quick (ie what i will type) answer is that you can break a 40bit key in ~15 minutes with *linear* scalability (eg 128bit in ~45 min). AiroSnort (see sourceforge) is the first (public) software to gather data and break it for you. For...

ok, start a sniffer in promiscious mode.. If you see non-broadcast traffic to other people, then you are on a hub, or someone has arp-flooded the badly-configured switch. If you dont know how to run a promic sniffer, then you shouldnt be asking ;)

No. It does not work nearly as well as BlackICE or zone alarm. BI is my favorite based on it's performance and usability. (gibson is an isdiot) ZA is free for personal use. The symantic FW sux.

I wont bother tackling most of the the above responses - the responses seem to hostile now that i have written them (deleted). Instead, please quickly glance at this article at SUN: Network Wedged by Little Green Men http://dcb.sun.com/practices/devtales/network_wedged.jsp now.. The overlooked...

I work at a large company that is proposing to block SETI and other distributed computing software because they could pose a security threat. In the past the SETI email address DB has been comprimised.. and that is a problem... but.. In theory if the non-open source SETI program does not...

it is not a very dangeous attack as long as your system is somewhat seculrely configured. script kiddie playing, blunt scanning and you are probably part of a scan of your entire ISP.

I cant suggest an answer to resolve your problem, but you are running way to much on your firewall/gateway. ISA server sux.

to start with.. do you have a good understanding of TCP/IP? I expect not.. good place to start is the TCP/IP nutshell book. I've found nutshell books very good at giving the basics. They have a tCP nutshell, but i've only read the TCP section of the MCSE nutshell book, and it gave good into...

File and printer sharing not enabled maybe? how do you mean 'not see'? Cannot ping? Cannot map a drive? If may a drive.. do you get authentication errors in the event log? (eventvwr.exe)

windows NAT/ICS allows port forwarding. you can set it to forward all connections to port 80/443 to your CF machine.

turning off file sharing is NOT adequate. And this is only applicable if win9x is the OS of choice.. NT/2k had differnt file sharing and has administrative shares on by default. Yes, if you are not a dumb user (gee, i'll execute random attachments i get from people i dont know) any of the home...

I use Black ICE. Despite Steve Gibson's lame ass article, Black ICE defender is a good product. Its analysis is much better than competing products.. their enterprise offerings are great and always a realease ahead of the consumer version. The current version WILL detected outbound subseven...

I saw some confiusing - and wrong - comments above.. ICMP is one of the protocols that runs ABOVE IP.. that is, it used IP (hence by IP address) but it is NOT TCP or UDP. It is a seperate protocol used for IP error control. ICMP uses types and codes to desginate the meaning of the packet, not...

its called a firewall. or a personal firewall ;) yes, sone alarm will display this, and it IS real time. I strongly reccomend Black ICE over zone alarm.. it performs well and it's heuristics does a great job of detecting attacks - like the knew IIS exploit w/out req1uiring a signature update.
