5 Steps to prevent your USB from Virus

Top Blogs

You have a USB and I'm sure that you had problem with it more than 1 time. The main reason is because of virus. And you will use antivirus software to delete these damn viruses, or might format it. But it is said that Prevention is better than cure.
I'll show you some simples step to prevent your beloved USB from virus

So how can you know that your USB is infected? When you right click your USB, you will see Autoplay in Bold in the first line. It means that your USB has been infected with virus, 90% possibility! Because the first line should be Open or Expore instead of Autoplay Virus can be communicated to USB because it copies itself to USB and creat a file autorun.inf to activate virus itself. And it is so smart to be in hidden form.
When you insert a USB to your computer, it takes advantage of your habit of double-click on USB symbol in My Computer to break into your computer. There, it duplicates and disperses to everywhere. Their next patients are other USB inserting to the computer.

You may follow these 5 steps to make a shell for your USB:

Step 1:Check your USB's name. For ex, your USB drive is E: and label is THANHNGOC

Step 2:Convert file system of USB into NTFS: Start > Run, type: convert : /FS:NTFS. For ex, with your USB in drive E, you type: convert E: /FS:NTFS. Note: if your USB has function of MP3 and sound record, you should skip this step, because your multimedia player can not run MP3 files in your USB.

Step 3:Create an autorun.inf with whatever content you want; even let it empty is okay. Copy that autorun file to your USB. (You may create file autorun.inf by: Click Tools on menu > > Folder Option> Ch?n View > Remove Tick in square Hide Extentions for known file types> OK. Then make a new folder and name its autorun.inf. After that, you have to come back to select Hide Extentions for known file types. Otherwise, all file names are so frustrated.)

Step 4:Right-click on the autorun file > Property > Tick Read Only, you may choose Hidden

Step 5:Prevented all access to file autorun.inf: Click Start > Run > type: cacls \autorun.inf /D Everyone. For ex, you type cacls E:\autorun.inf /D Everyone. A black window will appear and it may require you to type USB label. Type its name (I type THANHNGOC) and Enter. It takes about 5 seconds to complete.

I do not say that you may prevent your USB from all viruses, but this way partly help your USB be safe to most virus infecting via USB. The last
recommend is to install a reliable antivirus software with automatic update.

ICS Internet Connection Sharing on Windows XP

Top Blogs

Internet Connection Sharing on Windows XP


Internet Connection Sharing on Windows XP

This trick shows you how to share your internet connections on multiple computers within a workgroup with Windows XP. Windows XP has a built-in feature that called "Internet Connection Sharing" (ICS) that allows home users to share their internet connections on multiple computers.
If you are not familiar with the network configurations, the easiest way to share your internet connection is to purchase a router or hub. Use this trick only if you don't have a router, or don't want to use a router, or if you just want to try out the feature.
A simple way to understand this feature is, you are making your host computer (the computer directly connects to the internet) functioning as a router for other computers.

What do you need?

  • A "Host" computer that running Windows XP. This computer must have at least TWO (2) network adapters. One adapter - let's call it "Adapter #1" - connects to the internet and another, "Adapter #2", connects to a hub or directly to other computers.
  • Client computer(s), which run any version of Windows. A client computer can be connected to the host computer directly by a cross-over cable or indirectly through a hub.
  • This trick assumes that the host computer is connected to the internet and you are able to access the internet on this computer.


Configure the Host Computer

  1. Logon the host computer as Administrator.
  2. Click Start >> Control Panel.
  3. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  4. Click Network Connections.
  5. Right-click the connection that you use to connect to the internet (the connection with Adapter #1). This connection can be either a high-speed internet connection or a dial-up connection.
  6. Click Properties.
  7. Click Advanced tab.
  8. Under Internet Connection Sharingselect the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection check box.
  9. If you are sharing a dial-up Internet connection, select the Establish a dial-up connection whenever a computer on my network attempts to access the Internet check box if you want to permit your computer to automatically connect to the Internet.
  10. Click OK. You'll reieve the following message:
    When Internet Connection Sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be set to use IP address 192.168.0.1. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, it is a good idea to set them to obtain their IP addresses automatically. Are you sure you want to enable Internet Connection Sharing?
  11. Click Yes.

Configure the Client Computer(s)
To use the shared connection from the Host computer, a client computer must be configured with "Automatic IP address". The main configurations are:
  1. Configure TCP/IP Automatic IP
  2. Configure Internet Connection
The steps for the above two configurations are vary on different versions of Windows.
The following procedures are for Windows XP client computers.
  1. Log on to the client computer as Administrator or as Owner.
  2. Click Start >> Control Panel.
  3. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  4. Click Network Connections.
  5. Right-click Local Area Connection, and then click Properties.
  6. Click the General tab, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the This connection uses the following items list, and then click Properties.
  7. In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, click Obtain an IP address automatically (if it is not already selected), and then click OK.

  8. Click Start >> Control Panel
  9. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  10. Click Internet Options.
  11. In the Internet Properties dialog box, click the Connections tab.
  12. Click the Setup button. The New Connection Wizard starts.
  13. On the Welcome to the New Connection Wizard page, click Next.
  14. Click Connect to the Internet, and then click Next.
  15. Click Set up my connection manually, and then click Next.
  16. Click Connect using a broadband connection that is always on, and then click Next.
  17. On the Completing the New Connection Wizard page, click Finish.
  18. Exit Control Panel and test the internet. You might need to restart the computer.

Wireless Hard Drives : Boost Your Computing Capacity

Top Blogs

It may be obvious enough for some people but for those who aren't up-to-date on every latest invention to hit the market, you may not be familiar with some of the new wireless hard drives that are slated to hit the market this year. People all over Canada and America are getting ready to see all of the ways this invention will revolutionize the IT industry. Where once a person would have to look forToronto self storage to keep all of their electronics and devices can now carry it all directly in the palm of our hand. We're becoming an increasingly mobile society and these wireless devices promise only to increase this trend.

At its most basic level, a wireless hard drive is a hard disc drive that allows users to connect to it from any device by using a wireless connection. This has become an increasingly popular option for areas of the market where people are forced to deal with limited storage space, like phones. With this invention, you'd be able to connect to a wireless hard drive much the same way a person would connect to their modem or router to get Internet access but this is where the similarities stop.

Seagate is a technology company that has created a portable hard drive that boasts an astounding 500GB of space. The Seagate GoFlex Satellite hasn't even hit the stores yet and won't be released until July later this year but that hasn't stopped the online world from reporting on its multiple applications. It will primarily be used for mobile/wireless devices for supplemental storage purposes but this device could be a huge game changer.

Mobile devices, like the Android and iPhone, can do amazing things that no one thought possible but its storage capacity has been somewhat limited. Though incremental improvements have been made in current cell phones, these new wireless devices could essentially make your mobile device a walking computer in the palm of your hand. This system offers the ability for users to stream video up to five hours, expanded battery life, and the option to serve up to three devices simultaneously.

Many devices similar to this are likely to hit the market in coming years and produce huge leaps forward in the mobile computing community. The possibly exists that, in the near future, people will be able to carry every piece of information about themselves while staying connected and all from a hand held device. With this additional storage option, it will be interesting to see what further innovations in application and software development will occur as a direct result from unencumbered computing power.
