Why is LSA Shell (Export Version) trying to access ZoneAlarm Update Client? Generic Host Proccesses also tries to do the same. 50% of the time my computer crashes at the appearance of this message. I find it suspicious that any file would try to access the ZoneAlarm Updater. I’m afraid that my computer has been bugged because there are new instances of programs not running. “The parameter is incorrect” pops up when i click some programs i want to run. I have used ZoneAlarm Anti-virus and a couple spyware detectors but they show that nothing is wrong. Can anyone tell me whats wrong and how to fix this problem?
By messages I mean the security alerts from ZoneAlarm that ask if you will accept or decline the proccess.
LSA (Export Version) is a legitimate program of Zone Alarm that you need to allow so it can update and run properly.
I need to access a mirror of a bioinformatics database hosted on my school which uses a simple web-based form. But I have to do this 3000 times unless I can automate the whole process. Can someone provide pointers to an easy way to automate this.
I think I will have an input.txt containing 3000 lines with the line j containing the values var[j][1], var[j][2], .., var[j][n] (I don’t know what n is yet, but may just be 1) where these are the n variables that the web-query would need.
I know some C and some shell scripting, but I would like the easiest and “for-dummies” suggestion.
What playform do you have available? On a Unix box, you could create a simple script that builds the input form and then submits it to the web server using telnet on port 80 (or whatever the port is). You could also write a C program to do it.
Basically, each time through the loop, build the file containing the form data, submit it to the server, then keep going until all of your input records have been read.
An example o fusing the telnet… (assuming at the unix shell)…
$ telnet some.host.name.com 80 <<==eof==
get /oradoc/plsql.pdf
==eof==
The above example will fetch the plsql.pdf document from the web server's document root. Now you can reverse this by building a form and redirecting the get above with the form.
How to test whether current real time anti-spyware application is providing security for following monitors?
Sample spywares affecting the following areas of computer:
1. IE settings
2. Changing shell options
3. Changing context menu handlers
4. Changing hosts file
5. Calling load libraray function
6. Improper ini file mapping
We need sample spywares which attacks the above areas automatically
I use the following sites to test my anti-spyware, anti-virus and firewall software:
