 Posted: Mon, 31st Oct 2005 11:50 Post subject: How paranoid are you? |
|
 |
I'm using the average :
-Anti-Virus
-Firewall
-Anti-Spyware
Like evryone else I guess, but then I also use :
-Proxy for the internet, only high-annonymous proxy, changing proxy every 10 seconds.
-BNC for the IRC, with SSL 256bit enable on both side: me-->SSL-->BNC-->SSL-->IRC
-All my HDD are heavily encrypted
-Every cookie, History is erased multiple times each time I'm closing web browser
-OS start-up is password protected, displaying "disk error 0" black screen, starting only if correct password is typed
-OS is password protected
-I'm only using MSN with contacts using msn encryption 256bits
-I'm only using encrypted e-mails
So I guess I'm pretty paranoid when it comes to computer, what about you? How paranoid are you.
And no I have nothing to hide, I just like to have my own privacy, it seems to be more & more difficult on the internet those days, with spam, virus, trojan, backdoors, spyware...

I'm amazed your pc even starts with all that crap on it. Do you have steel shutters at the windows and sentry boxes at your gate just for good measure?

How do you change proxy every 10 second?
A app that does the job for you?
I bet you use condoms on your internet cable too!
I just installed PC Cillin 2005 Internet Security Pack (Firewall and Anti-Virus).
That's all I got.
I hate you.

an open case and a really big magnet or hammer will usually suffice, if the cops turn up for a raid, hehehehe. Or install c4 and a killswitch

Same here. Even after years of moderate leeching, the 'authorities' still haven't kicked down my door.

If you are using fireforx, there is a great extension called SwitchProxy Tool thal lets you switch proxies very quickly. Nice tool.
But the the guy is a bit too paranoid imo, especially for a person that has nothing to hide. I personally use a router, software firewall, anitvirus, spyware removal tools, and I password protect all personall files.

it would be handy to have a program to makes it appear you have no disk inserted at startup (like with fatal crsh etc..) and after typing pass it starts up.
believe me, cops are stupid with computers and i mean i really know

Sophos Anit Virus and Microsoft Anti Spyware...killer combo 
No need for a firewall...got a router for my network, it will do the job. I see people trying to get on my Server 2003 all the time though, but they get nowhere

That doesn't really make a lot of sense. Why don't you just outright turn them off, use a whitelist or even set them to session-only?

-OS is password protected |
What do you mean by "password protected"? A protection that actually works on the filesystem level (and not just the BIOS) or an easily bypassed password under Windows?
Edit:
DriveCrypt can be cracked or keygenned, right? What does that say about the security of the program?
| [EviL] wrote: | | -I'm only using MSN with contacts using msn encryption 256bits |
Paranoid people use Jabber on a privately server and audit and compile everything themselves. Both the MSN client and its server are closed sourced and completely out of your control, so any security is merely an illusion.

Think you're tough agressor? I don't use anti-virus, anti-spyware or firewall !
I haven't had an infection in over 2 years. I've crashed the machine before and used a disk image to return it to a few months prior. Ownage.

i have a firewall which is off most of the time cause it annoys me during css. but i have to have one to play quake 4 so he cant connect to the internet (i dont touch hardware for such stupid things)
if i have a virus i will install antivirus scan remove deinstall, if it is a persistant virus, like mycoolwebsearch etc..i will do what i have done once already. go into the registry in safe mode and manually look at every single file, look up if its a strange name etc. kept me bussy for 2 hours
