Thanks cleverhandle! Alright, so I may not have to worry after all about transferring files I've backed-up back on to my computer before uninstalling kav 5. What do you think of the following comment from http://ben.staging.popart.com/PermaLink...16479-c9af-4840-9e59-56eb00310eb2.aspx ...

And regarding why I'm hoping to backup files on to CDs/DVDs without ADSs... I am aware Windows sets its own ADSs, so one would hope that in future versions of Windows there shouldn't be any problems with the Windows-set ADSs. I am more concerned with the ADSs that Kaspersky 5 set. From what...

Hi cleverhandle, thanks for the reply! I've asked the same question over at the Wilders Security Forum, and a couple of the members have said that the ADSs are backed up on the CDs/DVDs, but another member jumped in and said that isn't the case. I dug around on the net a bit and found the...

I have recently been reading up on iStreams in Kaspersky AV v5, and it looks like KAV writes its own alternate data streams (ADS) as part of optimising real-time scanning performance if I understand correctly. Unfortunately I'm still trying to understand exactly how ADS works, but what I'm a bit...

Hmm, not sure if I know how to do so... but my case involves double-clicking files (and not the program's shortcut) as the most convenient way to open them using the program that requires admistrator rights. Would using a script be beneficial in this instance, if it is only applicable when...

Bump.

I've set up an adminstrator account and a limited user account on my computer. The limited user account is the one that I use most of the time, particularly when surfing the net. However, there are some applications that I use fairly regularly that require to be run with adminstrator rights as...

Yeah, I think that is the case with the WGT624 from my experiences. I also don't need a printer server, so I think I'll just go with getting another WGT624 then (despite some complaints I've read, it's been working like a charm for me...), and disable the wireless on the shielded router. Thanks...

Just thought I'd post my planned configuration and thoughts about how each network communicates with one another... please check that I got things right. :) Planned config: DSL modem > Netgear WGT624 router (front network, with wireless) > Netgear FR114P router (shielded network, yet to buy)...

Thanks for the advice, JackMDS. :) I understand that a shielded network isn't meant to provide "extra protection" to my work computer but, rather, the aim is to separate it from the front network that has the greater potential to be comprimised (wireless and less computer-savvy family...

Hi, I've been reading up on "network segregation" at Ezlan. I just have a few questions though... and I don't have that much experience with networks, so please bear with me a little bit. :) I'm thinking of going with the following configuration: dsl modem > wireless router (front network) >...

Finished uni, and will be starting work in a few months' time after a much needed break, so plenty of changes in my life to come. :) I'm going to be reorganising my computer setup at home, and looking forward to trying out some antivirus and firewall software (free and otherwise) that I have not...

Bump. :) Anyone know? I've scoured forums like mad to find if there's a 19" with these capabilities, but so far it seems to be only available for widescreen and some 20" LCDs...

Hi, does anyone know if there exists a 19" LCD with scaling options? For example, the Dell 2405FPW widescreen LCD has scaling options of 1:1, Fill and Aspect that you can select on the LCD's menus. I'm particularly looking for the 1:1 option on a 19" gaming LCD. I also know that the Nvidia...

Hi everyone. :) I've recently just built my new computer, and now require a (preferably) 19" LCD to round it off. I will game a good amount on this computer, and so will need an LCD with a fast response time. I've mostly crossed off the Sony and Viewsonic 12ms LCDs from the list because they...
