How long has Source been out on the streets? ;-) I would say that in about 18 to 24 months time SrcTV might be reliable, by then the world of Source would be a dinosaur. They look to have dropped VAC2 like it was on fire. D1. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PRO

Well - this is a bit off-topic now but... Almost all external inbound connections on port 1433 should be considered hostile. UDP and TCP ports 1433 are used by MS SQL server and should be blocked outside your network. If you require MS SQL access, across the public internet, you should consider

If I may... personal opinion... all ports should be closed to initial connections from the outside unless you specifically require some to be open in order to allow Internet access to a server you are running. I see no valid exceptions to this basic security policy. If you have not taken steps to

Good move NOT!! If you have had a trogan you dont know what they have touched. You remove the initial trogan and they may have installed any number of things on timers to trigger on a certain action or time what ever. Reinstall is the only way to be sure and its not like it takes long. Wait and
