    http://www.securityportal.com/research/ddosfaq.html 1.0 What are Denial of Service (DoS) attacks? Denial of service attacks are simple and usually quite effective. An attacker attempts to overwhelm a service with requests, similar to a 5 year old constantly tugging on his mother's sweater while she is trying to have a phone conversation, you can only do so many things at a time. For example if you have a mail server capable of receiving and delivering 10 messages a second an attacker simply sends 20 messages per second, chances are the legitimate traffic (as well as a lot of the malicious traffic) will get dropped, or the mail server might stop responding entirely. Typically attackers will go for high visibility targets such as the web server, or for infrastructure targets like routers and network links." 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address that tests your network setup.

  22. NO. Never convert to NTFS. When you convert it changes your cluster size to 512 which is baaaaaaaaddddd. NEVER CONVERT.

    Microsoft Outlook

    Because a PC is a device that can do millions of things. You could get a device that performed one function but then you would be pi$$ed off because it didn't do enough. You can't win.

    Simple Video Card Question

    TNT1 isn't all that bad. Last time I benched I got 9fps in Quake 3 1024X768 32bc 32bt. On a P3500@630. With my Geforce 2 GTS 64m I got around 80fps. With my G400 about 20fps.

    Is there any harm to system in deleting .tmp files?

    If you do a start/run/cmd and then type in the command SET Look at the lines: TEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\PHILLI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp TMP=C:\DOCUME~1\PHILLI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp That is where all temp files will go. You can redirect that if you wish by right-clicking on My computer/properties/Advanced/Environment Variables/ You'll see the 2 lines at the top. Don't mess with the stuff at the bottom unless you know what your doing. If you redirect the TEMP files to another hard drive/partition you can save yourself from alot of fragmentation on your HD.
