Internet Explorer July Out-of-Band Cumulative Security Update
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 126 views
Internet Explorer is releasing an out-of-band update available via Windows Update. Alternatively, you can receive this and all other Microsoft updates via the new Microsoft Update. I encourage you to upgrade to Microsoft Update if you haven’t already to ensure that you receive the latest updates for all Microsoft products. This update addresses three privately reported vulnerabilities which could allow remote code execution. The security update addresses the vulnerability by modifying the way Internet Explorer handles objects in memory and table operations. In addition, the update includes two defense-in-depth protections against known techniques that are able t…

Performance log problem
by Guest WhiteTea77581- 0 replies
- 154 views
For some reason, I can't start any perfomance logs. A search on Altavista and Bing.com did not come up with anything that would fix this problem. Anyone have any things for me to check for ? PsTools which is supposed to run on XP, doesn't on mine. These next 2 programs let an Admin run programs with lower privileges, but none of these are working as they should. (I have Net Framework 2.0 installed.) SetSafer works with Internet Explorer but not with Firefox 3.51. DropMyRights also doesn't work. Thanks, Andy
