It's going to be hard to fix your problems without seeing your source code.
Also, site security is a complex topic, and it's difficult to cover everything necessary on a forum. If you're working on anything that's security critical, and you don't know how to make it basically secure, the best solution would be to hire someone who does (and maybe get them to teach you about what they're doing)
(no offence intended - it's a serious point)

Oh, and I should just mention - whatever you do - don't post a link to your site after telling the world that it's insecure - it's not likely to help your situation in the short term.

Good suggestions from the other two replies. Just to expand on the points a bit -
Essentially it comes down to not trusting any input from your users. Any time you're using any user supplied data, you have to make absolutely sure that you don't allow it to be treated it as executable code, or else you are allowing untrusted users to modify the intended behaviour of your application.
This includes when you use user data as part of an SQL query string.
(language dependent, treat this as pseudocode)
For example if you are using an SQL query like
SELECT * FROM Users WHERE UserName='$UserName' AND Password='$Password'
You need to ensure that the $UserName and $Password inputs can not contain any SQL code (or client/server code, but that's another story)
If the $UserName field contains something like "Alan';DELETE FROM Users;INSERT INTO USERS (UserName, Password) VALUES ('Hacker', 'MyEasyPassword');"
Then the rogue user would have been able to delete all your users, and insert a new user with the details he wants. This is far from a worst case scenario, which could potentially include having all your sensitive data stolen, existing data modified in ways that you won't notice, and a system put in place to do further malicious activities - all without you even knowing.
There are several approaches to fix this - mostly previously suggested.
1) Thoroughly validate all your input data. Use a whitelist where possible to specify valid input types, and trim out any code that is in the SQL. This includes server script, SQL, and client script code. This approach can be difficult to get right if you use it on its own.
2) As suggested, use parameterised queries.These are safer, as the DB server should not parse the parameter values for code to execute, however you should still be validating your code (or else you're going to be back here asking about cross site scripting attacks, junk data etc)
3) Use stored procedures. These are different to, but have some of the benefits of parametrised queries, though a lot of crap is talked about them... You still need to validate the data.
Hope that helps.

Hi all.
Is is possible to avoid viewing source code of a web page.
i can disable mouse right click... and i want to restrict from menu options also..

Thank you.

No, no, and no.
If you do disable the right-mouse all you succeed in doing is annoying people, and not restricting anything.

Bad idea, since if someone really wants your sourcecode they can just click on file and save as, "wholla instant source", or they can go to their web page cache ect. if it javascript you wish to secure from other developers viewing it you can always use a util that takes out indentation making it harder to read, but then again you can just open Notpad 2 and indent it automatically

No.
There's also very little reason to do it. Writing HTML / CSS markup isn't exactly rocket science, and if someone wants to copy the design of your site, they hardly need the source code to do it. Pretty much anything that's sent out from your webserver must be considered publically accessible.
If you're trying to hide the source for application security / authentication reasons then you have more serious problems. Don't do this under any circumstances. Please.

If you want to do what stevio said, in terms of user authentication.. or if you can, just use a server-side scripting language such as PHP, CGI or ASP.

No not entirely possible. You can disable right clicking of the mouse but that'll just annoy people.

Im trying to implement some features from a Java application on my employer's SharePoint site. I used IKVMC to compile the Java JAR file to a strongly named .DLL file. Before starting on the web part in VS2005, I wanted to make sure it would work. So I created a basic WinForm app and added the DLL as a referenced assembly (also added two DLLs that came with IKVM) in the application folder. Everything works.
So -- I moved on to creating the web part. I fired up my Virtual Machine (using V2005, VSeWSS 1.1 and W2K3 Server). I added the DLL and put in the same code and I get the following:
[IllegalArgumentException: interface com.iwi.teenserver.dao.hessian.cust.CustomerDataAccess is not visible from class loader]<br />
java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass(ClassLoader loader, Class[] interfaces) +3149<br />

No idea.
It didn't occur to you to ask this question in one of the .NET forums? Or maybe an IKVM forum somewhere? I mean, presumably IKVM is doing something to make .NET's reflection look like Java's reflection to the Java code it's compiling, and those support routines are likely at fault here - perhaps contact the IKVM folks and ask 'em if they've tested their stuff in a restricted environment like SharePoint.

Beats me. I've looked all over for a scrollbar labeled "Windows", and just ain't seein' it. Maybe i affected it too much already...

Well I didn't mean the scrollbar was named 'Windows' I meant the Browser Windows Scrollbar, the one of far right. i don't want that to change in style, just the scrollbar for the div.

Changing the style of a DIV should only affect the document's scrollbars if they change the size of the DIV enough that it changes the rendered size of the entire document.

Hi To all
I am trying to use web parts to create a facebook like application. where users can custome their profile and view other users profile in asp.net.
thing is what I whould like to know is how do I go towards storing the content and settings of 2 web part zones into a profuile table columns for each profile. can anyone plz point me to a good tutorial or video of how to achieve this. I am sick and tired of walking into sharepoint tutorials and basic tutorials of usine the ASPnetdb built in membership / profiles / webparts.
I know how to use the aspnetdb membership and profile services but I have no idea how to let other users see each other profiles.
Thanks

Try the ASP.NET forum. And work on your spelling.
Thanks.

Hi, I have developed a website in ASP.NET and now I'm looking for a webhost. I wonder if there's a webhost that can help with the scalability of the site so that you save yourself the headache of moving to another website later if the site starts to get some heavy traffic. In other words a webhost that can make the transition from shared to dedicated as easy as possible, is there such thing? Generally do you know of any good web hosts that you have good experience with? Thanks a lot for any help ...

I have a BizHostnet account. It's very good and going good so far.

Please, forgive me, i am very new at this HTML game, and I am assisting a friend in building his website,but having issue with placing a qty box for the number items that a person may have. And do not see and easier way to do it other than submiting the data in HTML, is there someone who who would be kind enough to help out this dumfounded idiot out.
Thx

Yeah, you'll want to POST the quantity back to the server. Which doesn't send it as HTML.
Don't take this wrong... but the fact that you'd even ask this question seems to indicate you need a lot more help than anyone's gonna give you in a single message board thread.
I suggest that you go to your local bookstore, find the programming aisle, and start flipping through web dev books 'till you find one that makes sense to you. Buy it and read it. Rinse, repeat...

Good suggestion. I may add that he ought to learn simple things first before taking on big projects.
