Malware Silently Alters Wireless Router Settings

Posted on 10:40 by Unknown
"A new Trojan horse masquerading as a video "codec" required to view content on certain Web sites tries to change key settings on the victim's Internet router so that all of the victim's Web traffic is routed through servers controlled by the attackers.

According to researchers contacted by Security Fix, recent versions of the ubiquitous "Zlob" Trojan (also known as DNSChanger) will check to see if the victim uses a wireless or wired hardware router. If so, it tries to guess the password needed to administer the router by consulting a built-in list of default router username/password combinations. If successful, the malware alters the victim's domain name system (DNS) records so that all future traffic passes through the attacker's network first. DNS can be thought of as the Internet's phone book, translating human-friendly names like example.com into numeric addresses that are easier for networking equipment to handle............................."

I've heard this has been traveling around the MySpace.com social network. Have encountered this particular "Zlob Trojan" on quite a few customers computers over ther last few months also.

Steps to a Secure Wireless Network

Posted on 10:33 by Unknown
Wireless networks are great, and very convenient for multiple computers at home or office, BUT can be very dangerous at the "home" level, and even more dangerous, risky at your business.

- Control your broadcast area. Many wireless APs (access points) let you adjust the signal strength; some even let you adjust signal direction. Begin by placing your APs as far away from exterior walls and windows as possible, then play around with signal strength so you can just barely get connections near exterior walls. This isn't enough, though. Sensitive snooping equipment can pick up wireless signals from an AP at distances of several hundred feet or more. So even with optimal AP placement, the signal may leak. Keep reading.

- Lock each Access Point. Your router that is... A lot of people don't bother changing the defaults on their APs, and maintaining the default administrator password (like admin for Linksys products) makes your system a good target. Use a strong password to protect each Access Point. Don't use easily guessed passwords like "111111" or "abc123". A hacker can easily gain access to your wireless router, all router manufactures have VERY well known default admin passwords, if you don't change that default passwords, someone else can and lock you out of your own router, AND BLOCK your own internet connection.

- Ban Rogue Access Points. If an AP is connected to your home or office network, make sure you or the network administrator put it there. Bob in Accounting isn't likely to secure his rogue AP before he connects it. Free software like NetStumbler (netstumbler.com) lets you sweep for unauthorized APs.

- Use WPA, Not WEP. Passively cracking the WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) security protocol is merely a nuisance to a skilled hacker using Linux freeware like "AirSnort". Weak passwords, and "WEP" evcrytion can be fairly easily cracked with 60 seconds or less. Use WPA to encrypt your wireless network, and avoid buying or using any device that forces you to use WEP to accommodate it.

- Use SSIDS wisely. Change the default Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs) for your APs, and don't use anything obvious like your address or company name. For corporate setups, buy APs that let you disable broadcast SSID. Intruders can use programs such as "Kismet" to sniff out SSIDs anyway (by observing 802.11x management frames when users associate with APs), but again, every bit of inconvenience helps.

- Limit Access Rights. Chances are, not everyone in your building needs a wireless card. Once you determine who should take to the airwaves, set your APs to allow access by wireless cards with authorized MAC addresses only. Turn On MAC Filtering. Enterprising individuals can spoof MAC addresses, however, which brings us to the next tip.

- Limit the number of user addresses. If you don't have too many users, consider limiting the maximum number of DHCP addresses the network can assign, allowing just enough to cover the users you have. Then if everyone in the group tries to connect but some can't, you know there are unauthorized log-ons.

- Authenticate users. Install a firewall that supports VPN connectivity, and require users to log on as if they were dialing in remotely. The Linksys BEFSX41 router is a great choice for this. Tweak the settings to allow only the types of permissions that wireless users need.

- Make Sure your DMZ is Turned Off. The router's DMZ feature is usually turned off by default, but users sometimes enable it for troubleshooting reasons and then forget to deactivate it again afterward. Since the DMZ is an IP address (or address range) left open to the Internet, any system inadvertently placed there is completely exposed and at risk.

- Turn Off Ping Response. This setting allows your router to respond to ping commands issued from the Internet. It's usually turned off by default, but you should verify that it is because it can betray the existence of your network to potential hackers, which in turn is an open invitation to probe further.

- Avoid Using Remote Management. Most routers have this feature, which allows you to log in and manage the device from outside your network. There aren't too many situations where this is useful, so you should avoid using it unless absolutely necessary.

- Monitor Your Routers Security Log Reports. Even with all the security enabled above, periodically check, monitor, your routers security log reports for any strange unidentified IP connection addesses.

"The purpose of this guide is to show the process involved in tracing an email. The first step required to tracing an email is finding out the headers of the email. What are headers? Email headers are lines added at the top of an email message that are used by servers as the email goes on route to get delivered. Generally email clients only show the standard To, From, and Subject headers, but there are more."

Ways to boost your website traffic for free

Posted on 21:00 by Unknown
"Do you have a website? Do you struggle to get visitors? Well not for much longer.

I have been looking into ways to increase the number of my visitors without having to pay any money. Yes that's right! I have spent no money and still increased the number of my visitors and my earnings."

Google Sitemaps
One simple way to gain more visitors from Google is to provide Google with a sitemap of your website. This will help Google to know what pages you have and how often they update. Go here and register for a free account. Once you log on you will be able to see alot of information about your website (this might take some time). You can also submit sitemaps to Google.

To create one simply go here and enter your domain name and change the other settings as required and off you go. Upload the file and your are done. Google will know find your pages easier when indexing.

Free Advertisement
There are some free advertising sites on the internet. Those will help you to get traffic to your site. There are two sites which I like especially. These are:

Adgridwork.com

Impressionz.com


Social Bookmarking
Social Bookmarking is probably one of the best ways to get more traffic. The most important Social Bookmarking sites are

StumbleUpon

Delicious

Digg

Furl

LinkArena

Reddit

Spurl

Blinklist

Technorati

Newsvine

Magnolia


Go to all those websites and register for free and bookmark all your pages of your websites. Write good descriptions about your pages. Also provide methods for visitors to bookmark your pages. If you go to http://www.addthis.com you can add a little bit of code to your website which will make this very easy.

Forums
If you use forums on the internet then add your website addresses to your signiture. This will mean with every post you do you will get another link to your websites.

There are probably other ways to advertise your website for free on the interent. If you know of some please share them with us in the Comment Section below

How to Generate a Horde of Website Traffic From Youtube

Posted on 17:00 by Unknown
"How to generate traffic by using one of the most frequently visited sites in the world - Youtube.com.

The good thing about video is that it incorporates sounds and visuals in one platform, which gives you a splendid advantage to access different parts of your viewers' brain. Video advertising is also free in most cases. But before you upload one thousand videos on Youtube, with the hope of getting more website traffic, consider these tips first:

Tip # 1:
Make Sure The Quality Of The Video Is Satisfactory - many people overlook this. Out of their excitement, they instantly record a one or two minute video of themselves talking in front of the camera, believing that it's enough to generate traffic. To be an effective video advertiser, though, you might want to consider buying a digicam with good quality and high resolution. Sound clarity should also be taken into consideration.

Tip # 2:
Don't forget to include "watermarks". Watermarks are website links that you flash on the video screen itself (like a subtitle). When you are editing your video, make sure you include a caption at the bottom part of the screen, displaying your website address link you are trying to promote. You may want to display your web link on the Youtube video description panel itself

Tip # 3:
Make your video as viral as possible. A viral video is something that's so informative, funny, weird, interesting, shocking..etc..so much that it's popularity spreads like wildfire all over the internet! People are linking back to it, and they are displaying it in their blog. They also share it to their friends via email. IF you know what people want, then you are in a position to create a video that will be viewed by more people, and will bring more traffic to your main website in the long run.

Tip # 4:
Mind Your headlines - Your video headline is as important as the video itself! Whether the viewer will open your video or not depends on how well you word your headline. In other words, it needs to be appealing, and appalling. This is self explanatory. Let me add, though, DON'T post misleading headlines. Other people include Barack Obama or Britney Spears on their headlines although their videos are not relevant to it. Viewers find that annoying and it will NOT result in increased web traffic.

Tip # 5:
Take advantage of Youtube's social networking aspect. You can add friends, share videos, post comments on other people's profiles, exchange favorites and ratings, share web links..etc. Needless to say, expanding your online connections will also generate highly targeted traffic to your site. Guaranteed! To learn more about the art of traffic generation from social networking sites, also view my article, "Generating Website Traffic Through Social Networking Sites 2"."

Seven Easy Ways to Generate Traffic to Your Site

Posted on 15:00 by Unknown
Here you will find seven of the easiest ways to generate traffic to your site, whether it's for revenue or for the mere fun of it.

Here's your scenario.. You're excited because you just made a blog. You whip up a few interesting posts and wait, and wait, and wait. Where is everyone?

Real life: There are millions of blogs! People won't just happen to write your blog's name into their address bar and hit go. You have to put it out to them, make it available, attract users. Here are 7 easy ways to get more traffic to your website.

- Have an Attractive Website Name
First of all, make sure you have an attractive blog name, that people might search for on Google. Not something like Vixashis or C0mpi00ter, but something that would spark interest, such as SciFi or AppleTech.

- Submit Your Website to Google
This is to make it more accessible. You can't just expect people to type up your website's name, they must find it linked somewhere, or advertised. To submit your site to Google, click here. (Attention: This does not always work!)

- Do Some Traffic Exchange
Traffic exchange is the exchanging of traffic between you and other. What you do is surf websites of others, and in return, others will surf yours. It's not a great way to get traffic, but if you have an attractive home page or post, people might favorite your site. Some popular traffic exchange sites are: EasyHits4U, Bravenet Traffic, Exchange, TrafficG

- Write an Interesting Article on Digg
There is a catch though, your article must link back to your website. This will generate lots of traffic. Register for Digg here.

- StumbleUpon Your Website
In order to do this you must first register and download the toolbar from StumbleUpon. Important!: On the sign up page, right next to Join and Download Now, make sure "Show website ratings & reviews next to search results" is checked. After your toolbar is installed (compatible with Firefox and IE), go to your website, and on the top, in t he Stumble toolbar, click "I like it!" (thumbs up), and write a little review (make sure it's positive!) of your own website.

- Submit Your Site
This will make your website more out there to others when they search on the Web. What FreeWebSubmissions does is submits your site to web engines for you. All you need to do is put in your website link and your email. Submit your sites now.

- Use the Viral Traffic System
This system is rumored to be the best way to generate more traffic, the downside is you get one advertising email a week (meaning your email is sold to advertisers). Make sure not to use your main email!

15 Ways to Extend Your Laptops Battery Life

Posted on 19:01 by Unknown
"1. Defrag regularly - The less your hard drive spins - less demand you are going to put on the hard drive and your battery. Make your hard drive as efficient as possible by defragging it regularly. (Mac OSX is better built to handle fragmentation so it may not be very applicable for Apple systems)

2. Dim your screen - Most laptops come with the ability to dim your laptop screen. Some even come with ways to modify CPU and cooling performance. Cut them down to the lowest level you can tolerate to squeeze out some extra battery juice.

3. Cut down on programs running in the background. Itunes, Desktop Search, etc. All these add to the CPU load and cut down battery life. Shut down everything that isn’t crucial when you’re on battery.

4. Cut down external devices - USB devices (including your mouse) & WiFi drain down your laptop battery. Remove or shut them down when not in use. It goes without saying that charging other devices (like your iPod) with your laptop when on battery is a surefire way of quickly wiping out the charge on your laptop battery.

5. Add more RAM - This will allow you to process more with the memory your laptop has, rather than relying on virtual memory. Virtual memory results in hard drive use, and is much less power efficient. Note that adding more RAM will consume more energy, so this is most applicable if you do need to run memory intensive programs which actually require heavy usage of virtual memory.

6. Run off a hard drive rather than CD/DVD - As power consuming as hard drives are, CD and DVD drives are worse. Even having one in the drive can be power consuming. They spin, taking power, even when they?re not actively being used. Wherever possible, try to run on virtual drives using programs like Alcohol 120% rather than optical ones.

7. Keep the battery contacts clean: Clean your battery’s metal contacts every couple of months with a cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol. This keeps the transfer of power from your battery more efficient.

8. Take care of your battery - Exercise the Battery. Do not leave a charged battery dormant for long periods of time. Once charged, you should at least use the battery at least once every two to three weeks. Also, do not let a Li-On battery completely discharge. (Discharing is only for older batteries with memory effects)

9. Hibernate not standby - Although placing a laptop in standby mode saves some power and you can instantly resume where you left off, it doesn’t save anywhere as much power as the hibernate function does. Hibernating a PC will actually save your PC’s state as it is, and completely shut itself down.

10. Keep operating temperature down - Your laptop operates more efficiently when it’s cooler. Clean out your air vents with a cloth or keyboard cleaner, or refer to some extra tips by LapTopMag.com.

11. Set up and optimize your power options - Go to ‘Power Options’ in your windows control panel and set it up so that power usage is optimized (Select the ‘max battery’ for maximum effect).

12. Don’t multitask - Do one thing at a time when you’re on battery. Rather than working on a spreadsheet, letting your email client run in the background and listening to your latest set of MP3’s, set your mind to one thing only. If you don’t you’ll only drain out your batteries before anything gets completed!

13. Go easy on the PC demands - The more you demand from your PC. Passive activities like email and word processing consume much less power than gaming or playing a DVD. If you’re got a single battery charge - pick your priorities wisely.

14. Get yourself a more efficient laptop - Laptops are getting more and more efficient in nature to the point where some manufacturers are talking about all day long batteries. Picking up a newer more efficient laptop to replace an aging one is usually a quick fix.

15. Prevent the Memory Effect - If you’re using a very old laptop, you’ll want to prevent the ‘memory effect’ - Keep the battery healthy by fully charging and then fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks. Exceptions to the rule are Li-Ion batteries (which most laptops have) which do not suffer from the memory effect."

How to answer 23 of the most common interview questions

Posted on 18:33 by Unknown
"Let’s face it; no one likes the interview process. Well, certainly not the people being interviewed anyway. You have to be on your best behavior, you only get one chance to get it right, and it’s like taking your driving test all over again. Over the years I’ve been to countless interviews. To get my first job out of college I attended some 15-20 interviews a week. Whether it was in Britain or over here in the States, the questions never really seemed to change from job to job. Not only that, but the answers to them are usually the same, with your own personal interpretation of course. Here I present 23 questions you’re likely to be asked, and how I have learned to answer them. Why 23? Because I had more than 20 and less than 25. Remember, being interviewed is a skill, and if you do the preparation you should ace it every time."

Badass Jason Statham - Transporter 3

Posted on 20:02 by Unknown

"We told you they were making Transporter 3! And hot damn this looks intense! The very first French teaser trailer for Transporter 3 has just hit. It's one of the most badass and exciting teaser trailers I've seen in a while - no thanks to Jason Statham. Although Statham is back as delivery driver Frank Martin, filmmaker Louis Leterrier, who directed the first two, has otherwise been working on a little movie called The Incredible Hulk. Instead we've got upcoming French filmmaker and former graffiti artist Olivier Megaton directing this one. From this short teaser trailer alone, it looks like he'll deliver!"

Posted on 14:16 by Unknown
"Self-reliance is a vital key to living a healthy, productive life. To be self-reliant one must master a basic set of skills, more or less making them a jack of all trades. Contrary to what you may have learned in school, a jack of all trades is far more equipped to deal with life than a specialized master of only one. While not totally comprehensive, here is a list of 50 things everyone should know how to do."

LocatePC Tracks Stolen Computers with Discrete Emails

Posted on 19:59 by Unknown

"Windows only: Free computer-tracking application LocatePC is a lightweight application that can save you a hefty amount of money if your laptop, or even desktop, falls into the wrong hands. Running as a nondescript background app, LocatePC can quietly email you at regular intervals or, more helpfully, whenever your IP address changes. That could be a pain for those behind cable connections and the like, but with a simple email filter or a little router-tweaking, you'll only be bothered by those emails when you really need them. LocatePC is a free download for Windows systems only."
