People have more flexible time due to wireless
network. Thanks to the invention of wireless. People can now work from
home while taking care of their kids or doing house works. No more
stress from traffic jam anymore. Is this great?<br /><br />Well, there is
something you should realize. Working from home while using a wireless
local area network (WLAN) may lead to theft of sensitive information and
hacker or virus infiltration unless proper measures are taken. As WLANs
send information over radio waves, someone with a receiver in your area
could be picking up the transmission, thus gaining access to your
computer. They could load viruses on to your laptop which could be
transferred to the company's network when you go back to work. <br /><br />Believe
it or not! Up to 75 per cent of WLAN users do not have standard
security features installed, while 20 per cent are left completely open
as default configurations are not secured, but made for the users to
have their network up and running ASAP. It is recommended that wireless
router/access point setup be always done though a wired client. <br /><br />You can setup your security by follow these steps:<br /><br />1. Change default administrative password on wireless router/access point to a secured password.<br /><br />2.
Enable at least 128-bit WEP encryption on both card and access point.
Change your WEP keys periodically. If equipment does not support at
least 128-bit WEP encryption, consider replacing it. Although there are
security issues with WEP, it represents minimum level of security, and
it should be enabled.<br /><br />3. Change the default SSID on your
router/access point to a hard to guess name. Setup your computer device
to connect to this SSID by default.
<div id="divMidAd" style="padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px; text-align: center;">
<img alt="" height="1" src="http://router.tlvmedia.com/Logger/impressionLogger.php?vURLID=8838375&advertiserID=266967&advertiserLIID=3455584&sectionID=1517420&publisherID=353641&creativeID=10602025&URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ereadbud%2Ecom%2Farticles%2Fnetworks%2Fhow%2Dto%2Dsecure%2Dyour%2Dwireless%2Dnetwork" width="1" />
<br /><br />
</div>
<br /><br />4. Setup router/access point not to broadcast the SSID. The same
SSID needs to be setup on the client side manually. This feature may
not be available on all equipment. <br /><br />5. Block anonymous Internet
requests or pings. On each computer having wireless network card,
network connection properties should be configured to allow connection
to Access Point Networks Only. Computer to Computer (peer to peer)
Connection should not be allowed. <br /><br />Enable MAC filtering. Deny
association to wireless network for unspecified MAC addresses. Mac or
Physical addresses are available through your computer device network
connection setup and they are physically written on network cards. When
adding new wireless cards / computer to the network, their MAC addresses
should be registered with the router /access point. Network router
should have firewall features enabled and demilitarized zone (DMZ)
feature disabled. <br /><br />All computers should have a properly
configured personal firewall in addition to a hardware firewall. You
should also update router/access point firmware when new versions become
available. Locating router/access point away from strangers is also
helpful so they cannot reset the router/access point to default
settings. You can even try to locate router/access point in the middle
of the building rather than near windows to limit signal coverage
outside the building. <br /><br />There is no guarantee of a full protection
of your wireless network, but following these suggested tips can
definitely lessen your risk of exposing to attackers aiming at insecure
networks.

All the programs it found during our test scan were false positives, many of them apparently flagged because the Norton user database did not have sufficient information on the file or there were `some indication` that the file is untrustworthy (unfortunately they don`t disclose what those indications are). Maybe Power Eraser will become more useful as the user community grows and accuracy of the results increases, but until then you should look elsewhere for comprehensive malware detection. </div> <div class="acnote"> </div> <b>Freeware</b> <p id="dlbut"> <a href="http://www.snapfiles.com/php/download.php?id=112345&a=7142156&tag=5499904&loc=2"><img src="http://www.snapfiles.com/images/dnldbut.gif" alt="Download Norton Power Eraser" title="Download Norton Power Eraser" width="143" align="right" border="0" height="47" /></a> </p>Admiralzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03886864323142467803noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425441510304806809.post-33179388510828606572010-07-20T06:56:00.000-07:002010-07-20T06:57:55.244-07:00analyze disk space usage<div class="reviewcontent"> <div id="progappicon"> <img src="http://www.snapfiles.com/images/appicons/i_getfoldersize.gif" alt="GetFolderSize" width="32" height="32" /> </div> <div id="apptitleheader"> <h1>GetFolderSize</h1> <h2><br /></h2> </div> <p class="ourrating">Our Rating: <img src="http://www.snapfiles.com/images/40star.gif" alt="4 stars" title="4 star rating for GetFolderSize" width="73" border="0" height="13" /> <span> (Very Good) </span> </p> <p class="reviewtext"> </p><div class="InTextBody"> GetFolderSize enables you determine the size of folders and sub-folders on your local drives and other storage devices.
