10. Which of the following is most likely to steal your identity?
a. Trojan
b. Worm
c. Virus
d. Spyware
e. Adware
Answers:
1. c. virus. Trojans, worms, spyware, and adware all depend on your computer staying up and running. They use your computer's resources to accomplish whatever their designer intended, such as sending emails, displaying advertising, or stealing information from your computer. Viruses, however, are usually created by vandals who just want to damage as many computers as possible.
2. c. virus. Viruses are not stand-alone programs. Just as biological viruses must take over the cells of their host in order to function and reproduce; computer viruses must take over one or more files of the computer on which they are stored. Trojans, worms, spyware, and adware are all stand-alone programs that can run without the help of another application, though they often come bundled with other applications as a decoy, or with other malware.
3. b. worm. Worms are stand-alone programs that are often used to send spam emails, or emails containing viruses. Trojans often contain worms which are then installed for the purpose of sending spam emails, but the worms are what actually send the emails.
4. e. adware. In the strictest sense, adware is rarely patently illegal or destructive, and so antivirus software makers have traditionally avoided treating it as malware. Adware designers are usually large advertising companies with hundreds of millions of dollars, and they take care to insert end-user licensing agreements (EULA) that supposedly mean that the software is installed with permission. Also, adware will not usually do anything more destructive than show advertising. Nonetheless, adware can quickly multiply on a computer, hogging system resources and causing a computer to slow down or even malfunction. That's why most anti-spyware software makers target adware as well.
5. a. Trojan. By definition, Trojans bear other malware within them, just as the mythical wooden worse bore Greek warriors. The malware can be viruses, worms, spyware, or adware.
6. e. adware, though d. spyware, is also correct. Kazaa's developers, Sharman Networks, make most of their money from the advertising shown by the included adware. The adware typically runs even when the Kazaa software is not in use. Sharman Networks has adamantly denied that the adware that comes with Kazaa is spyware, since, like most adware, it comes with an end-user license agreement that says the user grants permission for the software to be installed. In reality, few Kazaa users, until recently, were aware of just how much adware was being installed on their machines (as much as a dozen or more). Plus, the adware does monitor your internet usage, and so is spyware in the strictest sense.
7. b. worm. Worms most commonly install a "backdoor" internet connection in order to send out data (for instance, spam emails or requests to remote servers) undetected.
8. b. worm. Worms, which most commonly install a "backdoor" internet connection on the host computer, are perfect for sending out the millions of server requests needed to achieve a denial-of-service attack. A denial-of-service attack is when a server is maliciously sent so many hits that it is overwhelmed and cannot continue to operate.
9. a. Trojan. The Trojan "Magic Lantern" was famously used to install monitoring software on the computer of a suspect who was later brought to trial partly on the strength of the evidence gathered.
10. e. Spyware. Spyware is malware that collects information from your computer and sends it to another remote machine, so by definition any software that steals your identity is spyware. However, spyware is often installed on your computer by a Trojan, or sent to you by another computer infected with a worm, so other kinds of malware pose an indirect threat of identity theft as well.

How To Fix Windows XP Errors
and problems that can occur in Windows XP as there are stars in the heavens it seems...
So we're going to show you how to effectively Repair Windows XP below!
One of the best features of Windows XP is the built in repair feature!
In previous versions of Windows, repairing an operating system error usually meant formatting and reinstalling the whole
operating system, resulting in loss of all of your precious data. The Windows XP repair feature won't delete your data,
already installed programs, personal information or Windows settings. It just repairs the operating system...
Note: The system repair function will remove any updates you have previously installed that are not included on the CD. Any
windows Drivers will also be reverted to their original XP versions, as well as some settings (network & performance
settings may sometimes be reset to their defaults). It may be necessary to reactivate your Windows XP as well. When finished,
you will have to download all of the updates from Microsoft Windows Update, because they are all replaced during repair.
Why would you ever want to reinstall Windows XP?
1. Can't start Windows XP in safe mode.
2. You have problems caused by a recently installed system update (Windows Update, hotfix, Windows XP service pack, or
Microsoft Internet Explorer update).
3. Your problems can't be solved with system restore, or you can't access system restore.
4. You've installed a new motherboard, or made other major hardware changes and need to reinstall Windows.
Of course, if you are just trying to resolve Windows XP errors and problems, and want to save yourself some MAJOR time and
effort...
Repair Windows XP Installation: Step-by-step:
1: Make certain there are no known hardware issues. Windows repair will ONLY fix software problems. Hardware issues can also
cause boot problems (i.e. bad hard drive, memory, CPU, or power supply).
2: Make Sure & Backup Your Data. It's always a good idea to backup your important data before making changes to Windows XP.
Don't worry, if you follow these instructions your data will be secure and there for you when the windows xp repair is completed.
3: Boot from your Windows XP CD. Insert the Windows XP CD into your computer's CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, and then restart your
computer. When the "Press any key to boot from CD" message appears on the screen, press a key to start your computer from
the Windows XP CD.
4: A blue screen will appear and begin loading Windows XP Setup from the CD.
Note: RAID/SCSI/Unsupported UDMA users:
You will be prompted to "press F6 to install any third party SCSI or RAID drivers". Most users will not have to press F6, but
if you are running RAID, SCSI or unsupported UDMA controllers, then you will have to have your controller drivers on a floppy
disk. If you are unsure whether you have RAID/SCSI, then simply let the CD load without pressing F6.
When completed loading files, you will be presented with the following "Windows Setup" screen, and your first option. Select
"To set up Windows XP now, press ENTER". DO NOT select Recovery Console.
When presented with the End User License agreement screen. press the F8 key to continue.
Next, Windows Setup will find existing Windows XP installations. You will be asked to repair an existing XP installation, or
install a fresh copy of Windows XP.
If no installations are found, then you will not be given the option to repair. This may happen if the data or partition on
your drive is too corrupted.
Note: If you install a fresh copy, all data on that partition will be lost!
You are almost through! Windows XP will look like it is installing itself for the first time, but it will keep and
remember all of your data and settings. Just follow the prompts, and have your CD-KEY ready if needed.
WARNING: Due to the proliferation of the Welchia, Blaster and other Worm/Viruses that are prevlanet online...be aware that a
Repair Install will leave your system vulnerable. You can get infected within seconds.
Do not go on line until you have enabled XP's firewall first, and make sure and download and run the free and effective
XoftSPySE Spyware remover & blocker on your PC..It is one of the best we've tested!
Don't forget to run Windows Update! (install critical updates first)

New software for deployment of poll officials
This software has been created to take all burden of deputing people on poll duties from the district magistrate .Group of NIC has started working on this software by following the directions of election commission .
Till yet , work of deploying officials for poll duties was done by DMS which use individual logistics and other resources and because of that there was no uniformity in the allocation of work and distribution of resources. The new software will help in streamlining the work.
EPDS is a data entry software, whereby the work of allocating duty as per the rules issued by the EC will be done by the software once the list of officials is fed into the system.
The new software will ensure that officials either working or residing in a particular Assembly constituency would not be deployed in the same constituency to ensure fairness.News via - rediff .

Are You Pirated
Piracy is the biggest problem for software companies specially for worlds famous company like Microsoft which is owned by worlds richest man Mr Gates so what about others .There are few examples why people like piracy because pirated products are very approx 80 % cheap compared to genuine and many pirated sellers provides you all facilities with cracks and make there product same like genuine .My all friends pc are mostly operated by pirated windows of RS 100 TO 150 and works fine than why i have to purchased Windows xp home edition for Rs. 4,250.00 from ebay or any other shop.
Just go and search ebay website you can get everything but are those things genuine . Yesterday i searched for GTA and i got very impressive results which can make anyone take out his credit card and pay on the spot . Result were like this
GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City Both pc games cd only for RS 70 (almost $ 1.6) and shipping cost 80 ($ 1.78) . Total Rs 150 or $ 3.36 , Hurry up Quantity only 9 available .
And one website says GTA 3 is for $ 12 Indianplaza .So there is a large difference and why public will gonna buy genuine one .
This is paid piracy but there are few buddies which makes loss to both pirated sellers and companies , they simply tell you to download free trail period and than provide you keys or cracks of that software for few little amount like $ 1 or $ 2 .
Softwares companies says that they are getting huge profits every year than also which having such huge amounts of money and educated minds they can't stop this .Windows created windows updates system which deduct pirated windows and don't let them download updates but now they are few tricks which makes pirated window genuine and you can download updates easily .
Do you think that can anyone stop piracy ,I don't think so ,Almost Everyone is pirated even me . So how many of you are pirated just tell me in comments . And what do you think about pirate world .
