What!? Have you created a batch file with the code I gave you and then 'called' that same file from your answer file?
Don't say something is useless without being sure. I have, as well as many others, been using it for quite some time.

the major carriers like earthlink and sbc could care less what your MAC is so long as you provide a valid id & password at login.
So all that talk about multifactor security being a good thing is all wrong?
I will continue with my opinion regarding it.
Something you know and something you have will *always* be more secure than just using one part of the equation.
i imagine the cost of thousands of MAC-related technical support calls would cancel out -any- sort of benefits that MAC filtering might provideReally? And why would that be?
I know of a company - TVCabo.pt - who has this implementation.
They provide service for thousands of users, and if it was something that would cause them any problem, it would have been removed by now.
I never thought this could end up being something bad for an ISP, but you must have your reasons.
I am interested on what you have to say about it.

Can you explain to me why you didn't edit the previous thread about this and included the guide there?
The other thread is locked and future double-posting like this will get your posting rights suspended.

shutdown.exe -r -f -t 30 -c "Please hold, Windows will restart"
This will start a pop-up window with a custom message and 30 second timer.
Lauching this batch file from [GuiRunOnce] will not restart the computer more than once, because the answer file is only used to install the OS and to launch files ONCE after installation.

The main objective of this thread is to give users a 'central' thread containing all the code they may need.
You can post your code here, however, there are simple rules you must follow.
This will keep this thread clean and organized, making life easier to everyone.
These fields are required unless otherwise noted. All submissions without them will be deleted.
- Description: Give us a small description of what the code/application does.
- Screenshot - Optional - In case you're posting an application and not a script (where you can easily paste the code into a code box), feel free to post a screenshot if you think it would be useful.
- Programming Language: All programming languages are accepted. Simply specify which one you app or script uses.
That's it. Now ATTACH (not post) your code.
Please, only one submission per post.
Don't make posts asking for help or commenting on an application/code you saw here. Instead, PM the author with the request.
Posts that are not considered to be submissions will be deleted.
Thank you for participating.
P.S: Taking someone else's work and pretending it is your own is not something you should do. Always credit your sources. Any code here found to be plagiarized without source credits will be deleted.

If I was in charge of things, I would make IP reservations based on modems MAC addresses, aswell as filtering them. But I 've never heard an ISP doing this.
My ISP does assign IPs by MAC addresses, but there's still a lease. The IP address won't change unless you're offline when the lease expires. My solution is simply to clone a MAC address in my router configuration changing one or two characters. Doing this I get a guaranteed IP address change right after I reset the router. Then I reset the cable modem to break the old IP address association if I don't want the old address anymore.
I can swap between several unique IP addresses within seconds this way; as many as my modem will keep track of.
To see what addresses and how many are tracked can be as simple as accessing your modem's web configuration. It's often at address 192.168.100.1.
This is white-hat info. Use it wisely, otherwise you'll end up having a site ban your ISP's entire IP address range.
That's the problem ... You ISP should filter MAC addresses.
You're saying that if you change 1 or 2 characters on the MAC you get a new IP address, and that shouldn't happen.
Keeping an updated list of 'Accept Only the following MACs' would be the best thing to do in this case. (However, I do understand that you don't wanting a 'static' IP)

Please read the Windows XP Posting rules before posting.
About your problem ... Have you try'ed loging in Safe Mode? If you are able to login, go to the Registry Editor (Start > Run > regedit) and do a cleanup on the RUN folder:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
and/or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
If you don't have a clear idea of what you are doing, try disabling in MSConfig first (Start > Run > msconfig > Startup)

I don't use any applications for my backups. Every once in a while I download the data from my webhost to an externel HDD, but most of the time I just trust them to have the data secure and backed up for me.
I'll try this application, it maybe something to add to my toolbox.
Thanks for the heads up.

Haven't used HotCerts for any of my certifications. Nothing like buying a good book, study it and then do some pratice exams (CD included on most books).
If you are looking for Study Guides, I recommend MCMCSE.com.
By the way, try choosing a better Topic Title next time.
P.S: Remember NOT to use braindumps!

Your WebHosting provider (at least most of them) does daily backups. However, if you still want to be sure, you can buy an external HD (USB powered) keeping it connected at the computer and just use it to backup from your webhosting. That's how I do it.
If you need this done unattended, you can code a VBS script that will download what you want and make it run in an infinte loop.
SCRIPT STARTS:
- DOWNLOADS
- STAYS ON HOLD FOR 24H
- ERASES CONTENT OF USB HDD
- GO TO STEP #1
This is not that hard to do, and at least it free.

This is the last time I'm warning you to behave on this board!

[MISC] Renew IP address?
in Networks and the Internet

The problem here is not about the $13. First of all, I don't care how much my ISP charges monthly. My Internet access is mine, therefor, no one else should be able to use it.
Just because you don't use the webhosting space and the e-Mail account, doesn't mean that it's O.K to be hacked. Actually, that's the least of your problems.
If I had a homepage hosted with my ISP and by any chance I (not they) got hacked, reading the e-Mail's and looking at the files I had hosted was not something I was worried about. What would make me pretty afraid was using my account to watch pornography, pedophilia or even hack anyone else. Those are the real problems.
MAC filtering is something invisible for the human eye. If your ISP decided to enable it, you won't even notice, so, there would not be any work dependant on the home user.
Yep. It's really off-topic since the last posts.
Just because something can be hacked, doesn't mean it shouldn't be implemented.
I once read an article about wireless being more secure than wired. At first I was completely shocked by the author's title. As I read through the text I realized that he was making a good point.
Wireless has many problems, and most of them are security, or lack of, related. However, and because of that same problem (lack of security) people were so afraid that they would protect their network with all they got, making it sometimes allot more secure than wired, since that technology people have come so used to it, that most of the times they don't mind protecting it.
I know that MAC addresses can be easily spoofed, but why not use it? It's not that hard to implement at an ISP (contrary to what has been said around here) so it would just be an extra that could make things more secure. Even if it's just 1%.
