KJxp Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Hey! Hey! Somebody actually has caught on to this in the world! I do netscans every once in a while, and 100% of the computers I can get into and access (read/write) their hard drives have got those things in them. They are viruses going around trying to spread. They come from other computers who actually have been infected, and the files just sit there waiting for you to run them. But, of course, DON'T!!!! windll32.exe update32.exe nvsvc.exe nvcplc32.exe install.exe fnksvc32.exe fnesvc32.exe fensvc32.exe dmsvc32.exe autorun.inf mssqlXP16.exe testfile realsched.exe serviceconnect.exe arun.exeTo learn how to protect your shared folders, please go to thisarticle which explains the step-by-step process for eachoperating system: Removing Open Shares http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/iss/a-virus/openshares.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJxp Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Forgot to mention...I think the SharedDocs in Windows XP is available read-only by default. If you don't have a firewall (or are behind a hardware router), then anybody in the world can read what's in that folder. You probably have it read/write for some reason. I've concluded that most of the computers with this condition were meant to be set up in a home network, where other people in the house can access the files. The owners just don't know that they are sharing with anybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
