Hello all,
I’m trying to develop a simple/personal firewall using C#. I used Jesus O’s class for setting the rules and it is working smoothly. However, I’m trying to search for a way to make the application ask the user if a certain program is trying to access the internet, showing the port, address, direction…etc (just like the popup dialog in ZoneAlarm). I’m not even sure if this is the right place to ask, but any hint on how to do it, implement it, the algorithm for it or the API would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
tmp0

Hi,
One more question regarding the Windows Server 2003 - we have noticed a drop of performance on one of our Win 2003 servers recently. After a little examination I've noticed that there is a task scheduled to run every hour at hh:45, called "Collect server performance data" (or something along those lines, translated from a localized version).
Everytime this task starts, the CPU usage goes up to 100% and performance becomes poor for a few minutes. Does anyone have an idea why does it cause such a performance drop? Is it safe to just change the schedule to, let's say, once a day during the night hours? Should I change it directly in the "Scheduled Tasks" or should it be configured elsewhere?
Thanks for any ideas in advance,
Rado

Probably from Server Performance Advisor[^]. This is probably on the start menu somewhere.
As for why CPU usage peaks, it's probably set to a really small sample interval, so virtually all the system is doing is reading the performance counters.

Hi everyone,
I hope somebody can point me in the right direction. Is it possible to create a self-installable configuration file which will automatically create a VPN connection on a client workstation?
The idea is that the users won't have to create and configure their connections manually, and would just run the installer which would create the connection automatically for them. Once created, they would just enter their own username/password when connecting for the first time.
The server is Windows Server 2003 Standard SBS, workstations are all Windows XP home/pro.
I've tried to google for it, but I probably can't find the right keywords as I didn't find anything useful.
Thanks for any hints in advance,
Rado

Check out the following link too. It looks like you 'might' need to write to the Windows Registry to get what you want.

first, i don't understand your "-VE ATTITUDE"... why don't you just tell what you think with full non-hidden words ?
secondly, i was just wondering why you were acting like that, just because the MBR is a very critical section for a system, a some viruses replace the sector 0 with their own code to work still the computer is powered on...
that's all.

How about windows service? Try to create a windows service in vb.net and deploy it in windows.

is there any chance to speed up video (tv) download?
generaly it works ok 90% of time just sometimes stops for second-two seconds
are for this download managers usable?
or they just for download of files (save-as) when are more mirrors available?
reading reviews at download.com (f.e. freedownloadmanager) i read horror comments "my computer sometimes freezes" etc.
any experience? thanks

i don't think you can much speed up media player by tweaking, but you can try to increase buffer size or try another player
slowdowns are caused by your inet/ISP bandwidth limit or the server's hosting media stream bandwidth

If i partition the O.S. then any physical partition layer is created or it is logical.
|
|

|

Partitioning a physical drive allocates a set of clusters on the drive to a logical device. A partition table written to the drive records the assignments.

I am hoping somebody out there can help me with this. We have a demo of our application on a terminal server. We have configured it so it can be accessed using the webbrowser RDP client. If accessed in this way it automatically logs the person on to the server and goes straight to the application logon. There is no desktop and we have ensured that there is no access to explorer. Unfortnatley i still dont think we have done enough.
For example i managed to launch explorer from our report engine which allows customization using scripts. Is there anything else i need to be thinking about. I need to be sure the user cannot access any admin tools, launch any applications or access the file system (apart from the tied down folders we want them to.)

Hi:
Even after going through the following steps:
(*) Delete Cookies
(*) Delete Files (Temporary Internet Files folder)
(*) Content -> Autocomplete Forms Clear
(*) Content -> Autocomplete Password Clear
(*) Clear History
(*) Close all Running Internet Explorer instances
(*) Logoff and Login,
when we focus the cursor into the Addressbar of Internet Explorer, some of the URLs dynamically appear.
We even searched for that 'text' in Windows Search. (Start -> Search -> Find Text in All Files and Folders)
Where else, does Internet Explorer store these content?

Just wanted to add a couple of more observations. In Windows Search, would it also include the Protected Storage locations and would Internet Explorer use them to store history URLs? If yes, then how to clear them?

I have a machine with 1.5GB memory (Total Physical Memory). I started logging "Available MBytes" performance counter and it hovers, relatively stable, around 960 MB.
Now, what can I say about this figure? What's "Available MByte"? Should anything above zero be a good sign? That there's spare memory available for non-system threads? Is that what it means?
system consuming around = 1500 MB - 960 MB = 540 MB
Is this right? There's fair amount of paging however, hovers around 4 Pages/sec (I was told that 2 Pages/sec) is "good". "2-20 Pages/sec" is acceptable. Beyond that it probably means you need more memory.
