RE: System Tool 2011 malware

2010-12-16 Thread Ray
Still something to keep in the toolbox. My co-worker has a bunch of clients,
and 1 got hit with something.  He tried the usual suspects and finally tried
ComboFix. It was the only thing that fixed the problem.

I didnt claim they are the end-all anything, and I certainly dont say so
about Vipre - but Malwarebytes outshines ComboFix.  ComboFix is faster, but
I have not found it to be more reliable in any provable sense.  In fact, my
logs show the opposite.

I also didnt claim anyone should have a static toolbag, or that ComboFix
didnt fix the problem as described.  I was raising the issue that there were
and perhaps still are other problems on that system that are preventing
Malwarebytes from operating properly; which is something I often find on
systems that are not running the registered (real-time) version of
Malwarebytes.

As Jeffrey recalls, he had to rename the MB executable just to allow it to
run.  In any case, even if MB was blocked from operating optimally, you
still cannot argue that combofix actually fixed the problem.

 

Jeffrey raised this issue with Vipre support and they said they said the
same thing - Vipre and MB are not the be-all and end-all for all malware,
and sometimes specialized tools (such as combofix) are essential for some
malware removal.

Malwarebytes no, but ComboFix yes?  I'm not buying it.  Something else was
happening that broke or blocked Mb from updating.

Jeffrey had to fix malware on a user's system that infected the keyboard

MalwareBytes, and the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool).

That Vipre never even detected the malware concerned Jeffrey more than
anything else, even though Jeffrey knew it was malware because of numerous
reports on the Internet of other users with the same issue.

Outlook dropping connection after windows updates

2010-12-16 Thread Jon D
Wondering if anyone else is having the problem and if anyone has
figured it out yet.
I google it and saw some other people have the same issue this
morning, but no solutions yet.

Issue:
When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has
been restored and loops

Details:
Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on
the local network.
Just started happening this morning, windows updates were pushed out
yesterday afternoon.



Thanks,
Jon

Windows 7 Printers and Faxes loss

2010-12-16 Thread Holstrom, Don
I was hoping one of the Windows 7 fixes would take care of this. But a couple 
of my Windows 7 machines have lost the Printers and Faxes selections when you 
open Devices and Printers. A reboot used to fix it, but not lately. Has anyone 
else run into this? I cannot find anything through Google. We have a couple of 
dozen printers here, and we run a script to get them up and running on all our 
workstations. I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to get 
this fixed...

 Subject: Outlook dropping connection after windows updates
 
 Wondering if anyone else is having the problem and if anyone has
figured it out
 yet.
 I google it and saw some other people have the same issue this
morning, but no
 solutions yet.
 
 Issue:
 When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
 connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has
been
 restored and loops
 
 Details:
 Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on
the local
 network.
 Just started happening this morning, windows updates were pushed out
 yesterday afternoon.
 
 
 
 Thanks,

There seems to be a Windows Update this month that modified Outlook's behavior 
on a number of fronts.  I don't have many details at this point, but at home my 
wife had issues checking gmail in Outlook 2007.  It turned out to be Secure 
Password Authentication being turned on in Outlook.  Seems others had a similar 
issue with gmail:

I didnt claim they are the end-all anything, and I certainly dont say so about 
Vipre - but Malwarebytes outshines ComboFix.  ComboFix is faster, but I have 
not found it to be more reliable in any provable sense.  In fact, my logs show 
the opposite.

I also didnt claim anyone should have a static toolbag, or that ComboFix didnt 
fix the problem as described.  I was raising the issue that there were and 
perhaps still are other problems on that system that are preventing 
Malwarebytes from operating properly; which is something I often find on 
systems that are not running the registered (real-time) version of Malwarebytes.

As Jeffrey recalls, he had to rename the MB executable just to allow it to run. 
 In any case, even if MB was blocked from operating optimally, you still cannot 
argue that combofix actually fixed the problem.

 

Jeffrey raised this issue with Vipre support and they said they said the same 
thing – Vipre and MB are not the be-all and end-all for all malware, and 
sometimes specialized tools (such as combofix) are essential for some malware 
removal.

Google Chrome MSI Installer available

Google Chrome Gets Ready For Business -- InformationWeek

On Wednesday, Google moved to sweeten the deal with the introduction of a 
few tools to simplify Chrome browser installation and management in the 
enterprise. The company has created an MSI installer to allow businesses 
to use common deployment tools to install Chrome for their users.

Google has also added support for managed group policy through a set of 
policies and templates that provide administrators with security and 
privacy configuration options. And it has extended group policy support to 
Google Chrome Frame, a plug-in for Internet Explorer that hands Web page 
rendering off to Chrome's engine without sacrificing the functionality of 
Web sites and applications that require Internet Explorer.

new build HP server will not see HBA

2010-12-16 Thread Laurence Childs
Hi All

I have recycled a couple of servers that we had in our blade rack

2 x HP BL20p G3 servers

Fresh build of windows 2003 server enterprise SP1 - no hot fixes, patches etc 
applied as yet

SFP transceivers plugged in to slots in the 8 port fibre channel 'card' on the 
front of the blade chassis

But I’m not seeing the Fibre Channel Adapter listed in Device Manager

All the other servers in the chassis are listing the adapters correctly

These servers were running windows server 2003 standard with no adapters fitted 
and no drivers loaded but that OS has been completely wiped and overwritten

Any answers as to why I can't see the adapters listed in device manager and 
what I can do to get them listed?

Thanks

Laurence

There seems to be a Windows Update this month that modified Outlook's

but at home my wife had issues checking gmail in Outlook 2007.  It turned
out to be Secure Password Authentication being turned on in Outlook.  Seems
others had a similar issue with gmail:

Not sure if that issue relates to your problem, but there may be a

I google it and saw some other people have the same issue this morning, but
no solutions yet.

Issue:
When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has been

Details:
Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on the

There seems to be a Windows Update this month that modified Outlook's
behavior on a number of fronts.  I don't have many details at this point,
but at home my wife had issues checking gmail in Outlook 2007.  It turned
out to be Secure Password Authentication being turned on in Outlook.  Seems
others had a similar issue with gmail:

Not sure if that issue relates to your problem, but there may be a
correlation.

Wondering if anyone else is having the problem and if anyone has figured it
out yet.
I google it and saw some other people have the same issue this morning, but
no solutions yet.

Issue:
When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has been
restored and loops

Details:
Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on the
local network.
Just started happening this morning, windows updates were pushed out
yesterday afternoon.



Thanks,
Jon

On Wednesday, Google moved to sweeten the deal with the introduction of
a

enterprise. The company has created an MSI installer to allow businesses

to use common deployment tools to install Chrome for their users.

Google has also added support for managed group policy through a set of

I am tired of my old keyboard and mouse (both Logitech) and the 5 key on the
10-key keypad appears to be non-functional any more... I'd really like to
get both parts wireless. What do you guys like for a wireless keyboard and
mouse combo? USB or PS/2. My PC at work is USB-only, but I'm currently using
a PS/2 keyboard with an adapter, so PS/2 is OK too...

Subject: RE: Outlook dropping connection after windows updates

There seems to be a Windows Update this month that modified Outlook's
behavior on a number of fronts.  I don't have many details at this point,
but at home my wife had issues checking gmail in Outlook 2007.  It turned
out to be Secure Password Authentication being turned on in Outlook.  Seems
others had a similar issue with gmail:

Not sure if that issue relates to your problem, but there may be a
correlation.

Subject: Outlook dropping connection after windows updates

Wondering if anyone else is having the problem and if anyone has figured it
out yet.
I google it and saw some other people have the same issue this morning, but
no solutions yet.

Issue:
When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has been
restored and loops

Details:
Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on the
local network.
Just started happening this morning, windows updates were pushed out
yesterday afternoon.



Thanks,
Jon

Re: Connecting shared printers with GPP

So I now read that the point and print restrictions under user config are 
ignored by Win7 and you are supposed to configure it under computer 
config/admin templates/printers. Trouble is, I don't have that setting there. 
Any ideas why not? Server is 2008 SP2.

RE: Try this Link - was Outlook dropping connection after windows updates

2010-12-16 Thread Carl Houseman
That hotfix for archive access, 2458611, isn't on MU, WU, or WSUS, so it's
not likely related to OP's problem.

Regarding patches from Tuesday, none of those affect Outlook, and my
Googling doesn't find others reporting the same problem (over the WAN only)
since Tuesday.

I'd check with the WAN provider to make sure nothing is being filtered
and/or run some connectivity tests on specific ports needed between Outlook
and Exchange to make sure there's no filtering.

 Issue:
 When they open Outlook, the bubble will pop up on the taskbar stating
 connection to exchange has been lost then it comes up saying it has
 been
 restored and loops

 Details:
 Exchange 2k3, outlook 2007. Issue only happens over the WAN, not on
 the local
 network.
 Just started happening this morning, windows updates were pushed out
 yesterday afternoon.



 Thanks,
 Jon

Correct. But it's installed by default if you've installed Windows Live.

I've tried to duplicate this and cannot.  Have OL 2007 connecting RPC/https 
with NTLM auth to Exchange 2003 and patch 2412171 is installed.  What's 
missing?  SPA is not for Exchange connections.  I don't have any Outlook 
Connector COM add-in, AFICT, that's for Hotmail/Live mailboxes, not Exchange 
servers.

OT: Cisco 1240AG - SSIDs and VLANs

2010-12-16 Thread Kurt Buff
All,

I've just set up a guest VLAN for $WORK with an SSID that has no key.
It does what it's supposed to do, but before I had set it up, I had to
pass around the key for the production SSID, and it's pretty much
spread through the user community.

I can't simply change the key on the SSID because company laptops, and
more importantly the wireless barcode scanners, would all need to be
changed at once, and that's not going to happen.

I've been looking, and I don't see how I can I set up a new SSID and
key on the WAPs for the production VLAN - it looks as if I have to set
up a new VLAN.

Am I correct, or am I missing something?

Kurt

to use a key...

I am (or was - I've given up on it, for the moment) getting that when
trying to use PSEXEC locally.  I am not trying to run a command on a

Has anyone noticed that the most recent version of TCPVCON from
SysInternals doesn't show port information any more?

 

No :x

 

Old response:   TCP, svchost.exe, 888, LISTENING, 0.0.0.0:135, 0.0.0.0:0




New response:  TCP, svchost.exe, 888, LISTENING, 0.0.0.0, 0.0.0.0

 

I'm going to have to revert to the v2.54 edition...

Re: Switches

2010-12-16 Thread Tom Miller
I need POE for the wireless access points, or at least POE is preferred.  And 
we'll be moving to IP phones at some point which need POE.  
 
Thinking about it I don't need gig at the remote site.  I can get a 5500E, 
which still gives me four GIG points and the rest are 100, fine for standard 
user.

 Matthew W. Ross mr...@ephrataschools.org 12/15/2010 4:58 PM 
Do you need layer 3? The Procurve 2520 series is the Procurve layer 2 PoE 
switch line. I'm looking at getting some of these for WiFi AP/IP Phone 
deployment. The 2520-24G-PoE might be what you're looking for.

I'm curious, what is the need for Gigabit PoE? High speed 802.11n networking?

 When I put in Fixed port, blank for port count, Smart Managed, Layer 3 lite,
 Gigabit Cooper, blank for uplink type, PoE, and blank for HA, I come up with
 V1910-24G-PoE(170W) and V1910-24G-PoE(365W).
 
 Note that the V series doesn't appear to have that fantabulous lifetime
 warranty everyone loves.

   Folks,
   I'm in the market for a few new switches for a new remote office. 1 GIG
  with POE will be fine for this site. I don't need anything fancy, just
 basic
  L3 and VLANs. In the past I've used 3COM 5500G series, but this time I'm
  thinking HP since you folks on this list seem to give HP switches high
  reviews.
   Looking at the various HP switches, I think the E2910al series will due.
  It's hard to tell looking at HPs site the differences between the E2910
 and
  the A series. Both are listed as fixed port L3 managed ethernet
 switches.
   Any of you HP folks care to clarify this for me?
   Regards,
  Tom
