| There is a leak which has been found to
exist in IE 5. When you click a link such as an e-mail attachment, IE opens the file,
which empowers the malicious program to take over your computer. The deception uses a
feature found in IE 5 called "Class ID" to falsify file extensions with .txt,
.bmp, or .gif for its real extention. The program that falsifies the file extention
is called HTML App, or HTA. Microsoft is ivestigating the problem currently. To find the
real extension of a file, click 'properties' on the file to get the real extension. If the
file is named .hta, Delete it immediately. --pcworld.com |

| Create A Folder That Can't Be Deleted |
| First, open MS DOS Prompt and then go to the
C:\Windows\Desktop directory. To do this, you must type in "CD
Desktop" (without the quotation marks) and then press Enter to go to that directory.
Type in for example: "MD 2002 VIRUS" (without the quotation marks). Use the
space bar between MD and 2002, but hold down ALT key and enter the number 255 on your
numeric keypad between 2002 and VIRUS. This creates a space character that cannot be
removed from the Windows shell (Explorer). That's all...now wait to see how your friend
reacts to this...hehIf your friend panics, just do the following if they ask for
help: repeat all the above steps but use RMDIR (Remove Directory) command instead of MD
(Make Directory) to remove the files folder. Enjoy! ~WinBoost2001 |
