Is ur computer secure ?


Just think before opening any file  bcoz there are many techniques by which ur personal information is taken away ,one of which is embedding viruses( trojans,worms,keyloggers.............)  in exe, vbs , bat files ,auto run files ,games  etc  .The actual file seems to be useful as viruses in these file become active after a specific time of installation  or on the updation of file (depends on how the hacker programmed the file)
------------>Do not open the files which have extensions as if they were jpeg, gif ,ppt , txt etc   but not the real extension names  such as  imag1.jpeg.exe ,image.gif.exe ,test.txt.exe ,test.txt.vbs ,test.txt.bat , key.ppt.bat   and the list is endless. so do not open the files which have double extensions.Also note that many links that come in the social networking sites such  yup she did it in the public , how dare she is .......................  are all of this type so be careful in opening these type of files

Be cautious while setting up the passwords for various websites.

It has been found that most of the websites steal user information by prompting the user to signup a new account to access various services .It sounds good , but the user is at risk if he set the passwords which were already used for signup in net banking sites , Facebook , gmail to name a few.......some other websites make the users to believe that they can earn money by signing up a new account and sharing their links for their advertisement .No doubt that money gets incremented in their signed up account (remember that it is after all a human written program that makes the money incremented in ur account) and but ur account gets automatically deleted from most of these sites after a scheduled interval of time.(eg.. www.earnyouth.com)
Most of the fake websites like those of above mentioned type also try to use the passwords you used for their website signup in accessing other websites accounts like net banking sites , facebook, gmail ........and u are at utmost risk

so have a habit of setting up different passwords for different sites to be secure

Are u allowing the browsers to remember the passwords?

 

If u are allowing to remember the passwords , then make  sure that u are not giving ur system to anonymous persons.This is due to the fact that

it displays ur stored password  when the person enters the first few letters of ur email id

when he changed  part of  the  HTMLcode of the page as follows:

right clicking the password field and then selecting inspect element and changing the type=”password”  to type=”text”  in the below code

<input type="password" name="Passwd" id="Passwd">

For better security as in mozilla firefox ,set the master password  if u are allowing the firefox to remember the passwords unless which it shows the passwords stored when one clicks on show passwords……………..

Is your antivirus program monitoring ur pc properly?


To check I have written a simple harmless program that ejects ur cd-rom drive  if u close it .
it can be downloaded from https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_IS9V1cHAc_eVdLN2ZLdnBRT0E/edit?usp=sharing
open and extract the file
If ur anti virus detects that it is a virus and prompt u to delete the file , then ur pc 's antivirus is monitoring properly  otherwise change/update ur antivirus

you can stop the action of ejection of cd drive when you close it
 by  Opening
 ----)task manager or pressing     ctrl+alt+del
----)click on process tab  or  details tab (in windows 8)
----)select wscript.exe
----)click on end process.

----------------->Deletion of the downloaded file doesnot stop the action of ejection.For more visit  http://hackingprotectdevdora.blogspot.in
