Security - September 2006

From people i've never heard of with names like Gebhard Hertzog and Emilian Catalano. subject titles like 'PHehARMACY' or 'PHinARMACY'. I dont dare open them in case they've got viruses.

I've heard though that you can't get a virus through an email only an attachment?

But then what is the purpose of these-they aren't selling anything, they're just jibberish!

Can anyone tell me how to block/stop mail I keep getting in my bulk mail box? I get a least 3 a day, all from different people but working for the same company, but if I reply saying 'stop sending mail' it just bounces back saying it's not a mail address.
ITS DRIVING ME MAD !!!!!!!

I have SpySweeper installed and there are certain files or programs that keep putting themselves back onto the startup list of items. I keep un-checking them, but they still keep re-checking themselves after a short while, back onto the start up list. How do I get rid of these files/programs once and for all? The add/remove programs is not the way, that way simply does not work, as the files/programs are not listed.

I was looking at a web-based project code which is written in

ASP(using both Javascript and VBscript).

As i know Javascript is a client side language and VBscript is a

server side language.

I wanted to ask that could the programmer use,the Javascript for

the serverside programming too?

Or the common way for programming its server side,has been using the VBscript?

I cannot get into some of my documents and my computer will restart itself periodicly. It's rather annoying expecially when I'm in the middle of doing something. I've tried to do some free virus scans but they either freeze up that screen or just don't work. I tried pandascan, bitprotector (I think that's what it was), and McAffe. The McAffe couldn't install a program it needed to and the way it told me to let it install wouldn't work. Help!!

There was a link through yahoo answers that gave me a virus that I had to delete by hand named "mIRC". I had to open it up and delete it's insides, then hit delete after reset at startup to set it back to auto detect primary master and slave drives, then I had to get to the control panel to delete the program before it started running (it wouldn't let me delete a program that windows was still using) Has anyone heard of this virus? It was a chat type link that keeps reopening hundreds of pop ups until you overload.

Innocent people are being exploited by the police and other psudo organizations that have authority to "protect us" and use the privacy that we covet to destroy us. Case in point: PA trooper applies for a warrent to discover the email account that is "suspect" of a crime, AOL (or any other server) submitts the info and local police in another state (CT) raid the private home, restrain the occupants, remove the children, take the computer and leave the premises with what they "believe" are evidence of a crime. Only to have the female, who was restrained, left to read the warrant and discovers that the email address thet was in question did not belong to her or her family members. In my opinion the crime was committed by the authorities and the internet server that surrendered the private information that was solicited. The police were attempting to find evidence of a sexual nature. By the way the female has had a mastectomy and sex is the farthest thing from her mind.

I've been trying to update my AVG software for the past 95 days (OK, I was away for 49 days, but I still want help)! I'm currently running on AVG version 7.0.394, but I'm having trouble updating. I'm connected to the internet, but it keeps on saying 'Update was unsuccessful'. The program isn't blocked by my firewall, either, so why is this happening?

I have windows 98 2nd edition - can anyone tell me where to go to get this password removed?
