• Why programs not marked in the list of windows firewall exceptions are still able to maintain the internet connection?

  Original title: exceptions to firewall

  Can someone explain how I have after uncheck the programs in the list of windows firewall exceptions, they are still able to maintain an internet connection? I use XP sp3.

  1. what makes you think that this unnamed programs are still able to maintain an Internet connection?

  2 Windows Firewall blocks unsolicited incoming connections.  Thus, for example, if you (or malicious software), set up a FTP server running on your computer, Windows Firewall will block an application from the Internet on your computer that are trying to establish a connection and download some of your files.

  However, when your web browser sends a request to a Web site server to load a page, incoming web server traffic is allowed because it's in response to a request made on your computer.

  This distinction between the incoming and outgoing traffic is why some people insist that the third-party firewall, which usually block/monitor of traffic in both directions is required.  The scenario is that you inadvertently introduce malware on your computer (in any number of ways), and then the malware "phones home" to establish a link with the bad guys, who continue to do what they want on your computer.

• Since I've updated my version of Skype, I have no sound in windows in anything except Skype?

  Its speakers are fully functional during a test and the volume levels are all very well (no, they are not muted), I've updated all the drivers and the sound card is also intact. However, there is still no sound (no windows sounds, no sound in media player / internet, etc), except Skype. You have an idea why this might be?

  sound only works on some programs able to get on wmv, audio mp3, all sound tests but still unable to hear any sound on all links. The problem started when the sound volume icon disappeared from the taskbar, also the expander to the taskbar control disappeared at the same time. Place the volume in the taskbar icon is enabled, the icon is still missing from the taskbar. In Manager devices under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, that I had 2 primary and 2 secondary channels, try updating the drivers 1 primary and 1 secondary driver do not have be updated because they were later. Other primary and secondary drivers have been updated and listed as primary channel VIA ATE & secondary channel VIA ATE. Both these have an error this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31). Tried to uninstall & reinstall nothing doesn't. Can anyone help thank you FOR

  Well, punctuation, capitalization, and enablers would help make your readable phost!

  Do you mean that you have no web sounds? If so, make sure "Play web pages" or similar is verified in any browser you use.
  What did you win by dating the ATA drivers?
  You must identify your audio driver and the update.
  Go to the website of your computer manufacturer and obtain the correct drivers from there. If you PC, then go to the MB manufacturers website and get the drivers from there.
  Code 31: you managed to corrupt your audio drivers. Do as above.
  See you soon,.

I now have the device connected to another computer Windows XP Pro and the sound seems ok.  I still want the sound to work on my brand new W8.  HELP PLEASE.

• Reverse the scrolling of the mouse in the window of the program (Premiere Pro 2015.1)

  Scrolling the mouse with a the cursor to the program window is a style of mounting very useful to me, especially with the hotkeys ripple trim. I can easily navigate to the preferred framework and make an edit

  Is there a chanse to reverse the scrolling in the program window back? I don't find any option in preferences (except chronology mouse scrolling, which is not the case, as I mentioned).

• The access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" are not secure

  Hey there
  Had a minor shock after I discovered that the access permissions default to the "limited users" in "C:\Windows\" and "C:\Program files\" are raised by the image automatically XP - Pro installed on my Tecra A6.

  Default access permissions to the NTFS file in "C:\windows" and "C:\Program files" for "A limited number of users" should not have permissions "File/writing data Creation" or "Creation of folders/adding data. This opens up for what is called dll redirection attacks (ref: http://blogs.msdn.com/aaron_margosis/)

  When you install a Win XP a normal retail or OEM Windows XP cd these two folders are special protected by this measure (not allowing the permissions listed for limited users). Installation procedure of your image work it around (in established Microsoft) measure and open breaches in security.

  Now I have to drop all these permissions and hope that all of the utilities of your work for limited users after that that, otherwise you get a very unhappy customer on your hands. ;)

  Hi Henrik

  Thanks for the information. I have a common user of Toshiba and I have never heard of such attacks to redirect m .dll.
  However, I think that if each user install antivirus software (nothing unusual at the time; everyone should use) and activate the Microsoft Windows updates and OS firewall should be safe.

  Greetings :D

  PS: I read in this forum that sometimes some Toshiba applications as energy saving does not work under limited account.
