I need to do some dos attack experiment on a security software to analyse its performance. But I am not able to find any dos attack tools for this purpose. Can somebody let me know from where I can get the installations of such tools ?

I cannot find any reference to a similar error on the newsgroup here, MSKB or Google. Hopefully I am not missing something too obvious. I needed a quick system backup so ran the full system backup to with ASR through the backup simple wizard. The tape backup went fine, and the prompt to enter a blank formatted 1.44MB Floppy poped up. Giving it what it asks for, it churns the drive for a second or two and pops up a completely blank error message as per: http://img151.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ntb2003sp2errrv4.gif Clicking 'Retry' chugs the disk cylinder again and back comes the "message". I have tried several different blank disks, and Windows is full…

I am wondering what the difference really is between the two? Both require port forwarding of port 3389. So why would I use Remote Desktop Web Access instead of just using the regular Remote Desktop client? Thanks!

Re: Event ID 7016 (long post) hi Patrick, Could you please send me the link where I can safeware for windows xp -- arijitgupte

I am asking about Win XP updates that are _not_ security related. With that many lines of code in XP, you can be certain that there are bugs. That's just simple statistics. Does MS also create patches for the more important non-security-related bugs? If so, where are they? I have looked on the MS website and cannot find what I am looking for. A search of the website turns up many links about updates. Typically they will have subjects like: "Get the latest _security_ updates _automatically_". That is precisely what I am NOT looking for. I do that already. I want to review a list of available patches for other issues. How do I do this? Thanks.

A few days ago I started getting a window everytime I start or re-start. The Window's top line is "Old Virus Definition File" with the text "The virus definition file used is more than 30 days old.... I use one of Symantec's anti virus programs and the program WAS up to date with the most current def file. I uninstalled the Symantec program and installed the most current version of the program and updated all of the def files. I still get the window evertime I start/re-start. Clicking the box to not remind me, turning off the Security Center Anti Virus monitoring, etc does not eliminate this very annoying window. Any ideas?
