  • The Most Common Blunder People Make When the Topic of a Computer Virus Arises Is to Refer to a Worm Or Trojan Horse As a Virus
    Trojan And Email Forging 1) Introduction To Trojan&viruses: A Trojan horse, or Trojan, in computing is a generally non-self-replicating type of malware program containing malicious code that, when executed, carries out actions determined by the nature of the Trojan, typically causing loss or theft of data, and possible system harm. The term is derived from the story of the wooden horse used to trick defenders of Troy into taking concealed warriors into their city in ancient Anatolia, because computer Trojans often employ a form of social engineering, presenting themselves as routine, useful, or interesting in order to persuade victims to install them on their computers.[1][2][3][4][5] A Trojan often acts as a backdoor, contacting a controller which can then have unauthorized access to the affected computer.[6] While Trojans and backdoors are not easily detectable by themselves, computers may appear to run slower due to heavy processor or network usage. Malicious programs are classified as Trojans if they do not attempt to inject themselves into other files (computer virus) or otherwise propagate themselves (worm).[7] A computer may host a Trojan via a malicious program a user is duped into executing (often an e-mail attachment disguised to be unsuspicious, e.g., a routine form to be filled in) or by drive-by download. The Difference Between a Computer Virus, Worm and Trojan Horse The most common blunder people make when the topic of a computer virus arises is to refer to a worm or Trojan horse as a virus. One common mistake that people make when the topic of a computer virus arises is to refer to a worm or Trojan horse as a virus.

  • Windows XP for Embedded Applications
    Windows XP for embedded applications Written by: Patric Dove, Advantech Corporation, Industrial Automation Group The embedded version of Windows XP is a componentized version of the well-known Windows XP Professional operating system. Instead of everything being wrapped tightly into a single package, XP Embedded breaks the OS down into more than 10,000 individual components, allowing developers to create systems that have the functionality and familiar features of XP. One of the most attractive features of XP Embedded is that it is much smaller than XP for desktop systems — so small, in fact, that it can fit on a 512 MB CompactFlash® card, and still leave room for system applications and data backup. The CompactFlash card resists vibration and shock for reliable storage and can be replaced easily for fast system upgrades. Also of great interest for the embedded system developer are XP Embedded’s choices of boot methods, its wide range of communications options, and the array of tools available for system configuration. XP Embedded uses the same application programming environment as XP, which makes application development quick and easy, and allows the same application to run on desktop and embedded machines. And it has improved code protection for critical kernel structures, file protection and more. Suggested industrial applications for XP Embedded include human-machine interface (HMI) panels, process automation systems, industrial robots, inspection systems, Soft programmable logic controllers (Soft PLCs), remote control devices and factory monitoring systems. Accordingly, many Advantech systems are compatible with XP Embedded. A few of the many possible consumer and commercial applications of XP Embedded would include set top boxes and terminals such as kiosks and ATMs.

Social engineering has become a popular strategy to deceive people to run the attacker’s malicious programs. Trojans use this technique to propagate themselves from a computer or a network to others, thus making them hard to prevent.

  • Creating a Dpinst Installation Package with Iexpress Wizard
    Using IExpress Wizard to Create a DPInst Installation Package You can use Microsoft Windows IExpress Wizard to create a self-extracting DPInst installation package. IExpress Wizard is a tool that is provided in the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK). Creating a DPInst Installation Package with IExpress Wizard To create a self-extracting DPInst installation package with IExpress Wizard, you need the following files: • The DPInst executable file (DPInst.exe). • The driver package files. • An optional DPInst descriptor file. A DPInst descriptor file must be named "DPInst.xml". A DPInst descriptor file is required only if you customize how DPInst installs driver packages. • An optional command-line script file. A command-line script file is required only if the driver package INF files are configured to locate source files in directories other than the directory that contains the INF files. After you collect the necessary files, complete the following sequence of steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type IExpress in the Open box, and click OK. 2. On the Welcome to IExpress 2.0 page, select Create new Self Extraction Directive file, and then click Next. 3. On the Package purpose page, select Extract files and run an installation command, and then click Next. 4. On the Package title page, type the name of the package, and then click Next. 5. On the Confirmation prompt page, select No prompt, and then click Next. 6. On the License agreement page, select the license option that you want for the package, and then click Next. 7. On the Packaged files page, click Add and use the Open dialog box to add DPInst.exe, DPInst.xml, and the driver package files.

    MCTSi Exam 70-577 Windows Embedded Standard 2009 Preparation Kit Certification Exam Preparation Automation Not for resale. ii Table of Contents Contents at a Glance 1 Creating and Customizing the Configuration 2 Managing the Development Environment 3 Integrating Embedded Enabling Features 4Creating Components 5 Generating and Deploying an Image 6 Adding Windows Functionality Chapter 6 Adding Windows Functionality Microsoft® Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 enables you to add to the run-time image custom functionality that enhances security and the user experience. For example, you can customize a client shell to expose selected functionality of the device. You can also enable remote administration on your device, add multiple languages, and add multiple user accounts. Exam objectives in this chapter: ■ Create a custom shell component ■ Configure multiple user accounts ■ Configure security ■ Add support for multiple languages ■ Add support for remote administration Before You Begin To complete the lessons in this chapter you need the following: ■ Windows Embedded Studio for Windows Embedded Standard 2009 installed. ■ Completed Chapters 1–5. 177 178 Chapter 6 Adding Windows Functionality Lesson 1: Create a Custom Shell Component Windows Embedded Standard 2009 provides several shells, such as Explorer shell, Task Manger shell and Command shell. You can extend the functionality they provide by creating a custom shell that reflects your application and OS design functionality. For example, if your device monitors a car’s engine at a service garage, the display may need to present gauges that show engine condition and buttons to operate the device. Because the use of embedded devices is so specific, it is preferable that the user not be able to start applications, access the file system or interact in the way they usually do with regular Windows XP client based computers.
