Hi Cider,

I'll start with the easy question. If you have no trouble with your wireless network at the moment, there's no need to purchase an additional antenna. The only thing that this would do...

Raion,

I think that the thing you need to look at is blocking any incoming traffic on the printer and file sharing ports (can't remember them of the top of my head).

The risk of file and...

Hi Cider,

The downside of not re-installing is that your image will contain some of the results of installing updates over updates over updates. It's always a good thing to re-install Windows...

Hi there,

The ownership of antennas (which is what they are talking about) is not illegal in itself.

As far as picking up unsecured networks, it depends on the legal environment of the country...

Hi Moira,

Quick question. When you connected in wired mode, was that directly to the router?

It could be that you have a DHCP conflict between the router and the wireless router. At home, I run...

Hi there,

You should have a link for "Classic Home" at the top right of your screen. See the attached screenshot.

Hi hitmun,

Try using "netstat -an" instead ... this will give you the IP address behind "aimexpress-vr04.evip.aol.com".

The other option is to do:

"nslookup aimexpress-vr04.evip.aol.com"

Hi there,

Doesn't MSN offer the option to use the http port rather than a dedicated port? Her messages may go out over port 80, although the return aims for the MSN port?

Just a thought ....

Hmm,



Let's see:
IE, version 6.0.2800.1106, SP1 + 8 patches

That does sound like a lot of builds since 2001 to me ....

Black Cluster,

I'd have to agree with Kaminski. Putting any technology solution in place should always keep the following three in mind: "People, processes, tools".

Too often, organisations...

SirDice,

From my foggy memories, any login command (ssh or telnet or ...) will run the shell specified in your user profile. Thus, if you are set to use bash, it will start bash to execute your...

!ns!ght,

Just to get some clarity, when you say 512 MB per processor, do you mean 512K of L2 cache? How much RAM do you actually have? And what speed are your CPUs?

Thanks for the...

Hey all,

Linksys being Linksys, I'm betting that the SSID is "linksys". They do have a nice tool to translate a passphrase into a 26-character encryption key.

Where you want to be, more or...

Hi isle,

Typically, there are two ways to connect to your wireless router:

- using your web browser
- using telnet

Both methods should be mentionned in the user guide for your router....

Sirdice,

You forgot an important step ... flipping the power switch on the IPS box :D

Hi,

Yes, for the time being (don't know what crazy idea my company will get in their head next), I can pretty much do what I want, as they don't even make firewalls on company laptops compulsory...

Hi Kthln01,

Thanks for the link.

I'll take another look, but at first sight, I cannot find the option window anywhere and there are a number of users on the Zonelabs forum having the same...

All,

Just had an interesting discovery on my copy of ZoneAlarm (Free).

I routinely downloaded the latest upgrade which took me from version 5.5 to version 6.0. What did I discover .... the...

JinX,



Thanks for the correction/improvement. I was just trying to stay concise ...

And yes, that was an excellent movie/documentary!

Cheers,

Gaurav,



I'm not going to correct all of your Microsoft statements, I'll stick to one.

- X was released in 1984, around the same time as Windows 1.0 (announced in november 1983, released in...

Hi Egaladeist,

Thanks for the link. I liked the option to manually configure the workaround. It got me to dig some deeper into Firefox and improve my knowledge level that way.

Cheers,

All,

Haven't seen a post on it yet, so here's for your info:

Firefox security threat

As stated in the article, no fix yet, except for "avoiding dangerous sites".

All,

Only one thing I can say .... Dump the Bump!

It's really annoying to open a thread only to find that it is 2 years old.

J_K9,

The GMail servers are located in California, and probably run on Pacific time.

I sent an email from my Swiss ISP to my Gmail account and it showed up with the same PDT timezone in the...

J_K7,



I would be tempted to say that it was received at 13:39 Pacific time by the Gmail server. And I just checked on Gmail, and that's the case. The header tells you when the email was...
