30.9.2008Reclaim Memory by Mastering Windows' Task Manager
The best way to speed up your PC is to give it more available memorybut freeing up as much of the memory you already have is cheaper and easier than
cracking open your case to
install a
new stick of RAM. It takes a lot of memory to get a modern Windows system up and ... well, not doing anything in particular, really. Between
cryptic system processes, confusing "helper" applications, and background utilities, a whole lot of who-knows-what gobbles up memory and slows down
your work. While a lot of programs claim to optimize memory use and pare down processes, Windows' built-in Task Manager can do the job just fine,
given the right tools and know-how. Today you'll extend and empower Windows' Task Manager to speed up your system by cutting out unnecessary memory
hogs.

02.06.2008Microsoft Deployment New Feature: Windows Update
One of the new tasks and scripts in the Microsoft Deployment Lite Touch Task sequence is called Windows Update. This task is disabled in the default
task sequence for the Client Template. The task runs a script called ztiwindowsupdate.wsf. One item to note is that the current version of this
script requires client access to the Internet and also does not support proxy authentication. However if you meet those requirements, there are some
really nice advantages of using this action. Here is a brief description of what actions this script performs.
This script will
install and download updates from
Windows Update and
Microsoft Update over the Internet using the
Windows Update Agent API. By default this feature is disabled in
each Task Sequence, it must be manually enabled to run, and each computer must have a connection via proxy to the Internet. This script was designed
to run on Windows XP, 2003, Vista, and should be compatible with Windows Server 2008 when released.

12.03.2008Security paper shows how application can steal CPU cycles
The annual Usenix security
symposium is a gathering place
for all kinds of ideas: those
on how to stop security flaws
and those about what kinds of
new security issues may emerge
in the future. A neat example
of the latter was presented by
Dan Tsafrir, Yoav Etsion, and
Dror G. Feitelson in their
paper
(PDF) entitled "Secretly
Monopolizing the CPU Without
Superuser Privileges."
The team presented a
proof-of-concept program for
Unix-based systemsalthough it
could theoretically be adopted
for any modern multitasking
operating systemthat allows a
specified task to "cheat"
and take more CPU cycles than
the OS would normally allow it
to have.
The utility
described in the paper, dubbed
"cheat," can run as a
regular non-administrative
user. In theory, a task could
hide itself perfectly by
arranging for its process to
run just after the CPU
interrupt "tick" fires (most
operating systems generate
this tick from the
hardware-based clock and fire
it once every few
milliseconds) and goes to
sleep just before the next
tick. Because of this, the
standard operating system task
accounting procedures would
never notice that the process
is even running. All normal OS
methods of tracking tasksfor
example, the "top" command
in Linux and Unix, or the
Windows Task Managerwill fail
to display the cheating task,
and this is without any
modification of the operating
system.

Being involved with deployment projects recently I have found that deploying Vista in the enterprise is not a hard task. The biggest question that

There are countless resources in web sites ready for you to consume, however it is
