Let's all go to our C:Windows Directory after we have made all of our
files in this directory visible. Tell the group the names of the
Folders and Files which show as a light color and let's discuss this.
Dangerous code is always discovered in this directory and but you

I'll bite. I don't have a c:\windows folder since I'm running W2K, but
I'll substitute with c:\winnt. So, here's the list:

Now, for some "hidden" files:
desktop.ini
folder.htt
mpcwin01.tvl
ShellIconCache
Winnt.bmp
Winnt256.bmp

Well, who knew that the W2K logo's where hidden files and a security
risk.

Now, what's your analysis, Debbie? How badly hacked is my computer?

I don't have a c:\windows directory!
I have a C:\WINNT. Is that any good?

When I try to view files in that directory it says my Administrator won't
allow me. Have I been hacked?

My other computer has \root \etc \var but no C I tried creating a \Windows
directory but it said I didn't have permission.

Please help me.........

If you're not on somebody's **** list, you're not doing anything

OK debbs, how about you tell me, I dont have any "light color" folders
[hidden to normal people]. I do have:

Docs && settings
inetpub
nvidia
program files
windows
wutemp
mycnf.cnf

So, what can you tellme about my machine, theres actually alot you can glean
from that dir listing, if you arent to thick and know a bit.

She said "C:Windows" not "C:\Windows"

> I have a C:\WINNT. Is that any good?

Well, if that all ya got - it'll *have* to do I guess. :O)

Obviously, if you are not *allowed* to do things. It sounds
like someone called the "Administrator" owns yer box.

> My other computer has \root \etc \var but no C

Weird, you really should get that fixed. :0\

> I tried creating a \Windows

On *either* computer!?

You are *soooo oownnned* dude.

I have Win98 and *never* have had to ask for permission to
do stuff. Maybe you should upgrade to Win98?

> Please help me.........

Sorry, but you must ask the "Administrator" for permission
to plead for help in usenet.

....or get special dispensation from Fluffy.

Hello,
> I don't have a c:\windows folder since I'm running W2K

but he said

> C:Windows Directory

in Windows 2k winnt is the Windows Folder %windir%

Ian.

Hello,

>> I don't have a c:\windows directory!
>> I have a C:\WINNT. Is that any good?

they are the same thing. In windows NT and 2k the folder is WINNT. In
95/98/ME/XP and so on the folder is simply WIndows.

Ian.
