Deny Force Kill Or Deny Access To The Program
Dec 18, 2010I made an app that will dump the tasklist because rogue likes to force kill executables, is it possible to deny the rogueware's force kill when I try to open a program I made or Deny access to the program the is trying to end it, to clean the infection? I have also read from a few articles and it suggested to create a service that runs under svchosts.exe. I also read about hiding the process in task manager but I doubt that would work, is it possible to deny the rogue software from accessing the close event handler within a VB.NET application.
The reason I am working on this is we get a lot of customers in our PC shop with a lot of rogue software attacks and desktop hijacks. Since I know that the rogue software closes cmd.exe; msconfig; and notepad.exe I made a small somewhat worthless app that dumps the tasklist into a txt file on the desktop then of course knowing notepad wont open I know I can open it with a trusted application that the rogue looks forward to.."Internet explorer".
I get the file name and its path from the text file and Click Start > Run... > Taskkill /F /IM <roguename.exe> and of course the rogue software will BAM! disappear and be killed, but see I am trying to accomplish this in Normal mode and not Safe mode to Deny the rogue of closing my application. It also speeds up the removal process dramatically
MVC Authorize Attribute Deny Access / Permission
Oct 25, 2010I'm using the Authorize() attribute to secure my controllers/actions and want to only display the Login action to unauthenticated users - or to put it another way, deny access to authenticated users. I haven't been able to find anything on the web dealing with either denying permission or allowing negative permissions (i.e., ! LoggedIn)
MVC2, .Net 4
To clarify, I want something like this:

Access A Networked Drive Via Web?
Feb 4, 2010We have around 2000 staff. Each has a shared drive to store some of their files. This shared drive points to a central location on our network.[code]...
Each user will have a folder within the root "ournetwork" labeled with their username. I do not have to worry about the directory creation as that's already done for me. These users are all tied into our AD for authentication. Folder name == AD username.
We would like the ability to allow our users to access their mapped "F" drive from outside our network through a web page. I understand that the programming involved (assuming it comes to that) will not rely on their mapped drive but rather the UNC path as posted above.
I am open to suggestions on how to get this accomplished. ASP.NET? Is there just an IIS solution like WebDAV? (although client-side WebDAV on win 7 seems to be broken, so that may be off the table).

View 4 RepliesVS 2010 Mapped Drive Access?
Jan 5, 2012I am trying to run a visual studio 2010 app from a windows 2003 server machine that writes xml files to a folder stored on a remote windows 2008 server. I mapped the server drive and can access the folder manually but in the code the 'access is denied' error is hit when the file path declaration is hit for that 2008 server folder. I checked the access writes to that folder and made sure it is shared for that user. Also the user I am logged into on the source server has admin rights so should it not be able to access the mapped drive through the application?How do I grant my app access to that or any folder on that drive on the remote server? I had this issue before but cannot remember what I did to clear this up.

DB/Reporting :: Can't Open Access Database On Mapped Drive
Dec 8, 2008I can't open an Access database on a mapped drive. However it works if I use the UNC path. how I can get this to work? See the code below for an example of what works and what doesn't...
Code:
mConnString = "provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\tiger-2000dvb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb" ' This works
mConnString = "provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=T:vb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb" ' this does not work
Dim objConn As New OleDbConnection(mConnString)
[code].....
The error message I receive is...'T:vb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.I've done the obvious and verified that t:vb_mt7MtrackBE.mdb is a valid path.
How To Access Network Drive Through Usual System.IO Classes
Feb 28, 2010My software handles multiple operations on files, and I have now finished writing the related functions, using the System.IO classes. I now need to add support for network drives. Using a mapping works very well (although Directory.GetFiles is a bit low, and I don't know why), but I'd now like to be able to deal directly with paths such as \192.168.0.10Shared FolderMyDrive. Is there any way to handle this type of paths other than mounting the drive to an available drive letter, using the newly generated path, and then unmounting?
View 4 RepliesMysteriously Lost Access To A Mapped Network Drive?
Aug 5, 2009I had a basic text file reader/writer program that wrote and read from a mapped, shared drive up and running for a couple weeks. I wanted to add just a couple more things that shouldn't have effected the program (the ability to write another text file), and now the program can't find the shared drive. The error I get is: Could not find file '<file location>' with <file location> filled in with either the mapped name of the drive (X:) or the unmapped name (\servercomputer). Both are copied directly from windows explorer, so I know the path is right. I'm a bit of a beginner, but I'm pretty sure that all the required permissions are in place, and all users have access to this drive.
To further complicate things, it is not consistant. Some commands appear to have no trouble reading off the mapped name, but don't read the unmapped name, and vice versa. Others won't take either. Sometimes the code will execute perfectly up to the middle of the code (accessing the shared drive a couple times), and then it will give this error. If anyone could point me in the right direction,

Access Cryptainer Virtual Drive Projects Using Windows 7 & Net 2005?
Jan 17, 2011I am trying to migrate from XP & Net 2005 to Windows 7 & Net 2010 My intention was to replicate net 2005 first & get projects working before installing net 2010, as I envisaged all sorts of learning tasks which I could resolve at a snaill pace whilst still being able to operate with net 2005
Stage 1 was to load 2005 on Windows 7, no problems yet.
Stage 2 open the Virtual Cryptainer drive
Stage 3 load a project ( was never a problem with XP)
Stage 4 project errors reported as not being able to access linked modules in another folder
Windows 7 seems to have more folder security/permissions than XP, so I altered as many folders being associated with the project but to no avail.By changing the virtual drive folder permissions are they amended on the drive folders (if so how would this affect going back to XP)
are the folder permissions somehow stored in the registry, which means if I restore an old virtual drive from backup, does W7 now know the permissions & apply them to the back up drive, even though those folders were never accessed in W7?By the way, anybody reading this that does not know about Cryptainer, should look at it very seriously, I now have no data files on drive C, & all my data files in the cryptainer vault are compact & virtually impossible to be opened without a password up to 100 char long!

Finding Physical Drive Number Using Drive Letter?

My question is there a simple way of pulling the drive info that contains the drive letter and the physical device number. I have searched the internet and found nothing for VB.NET. I would post code but I have nothing for .NET.

The program takes the drive letter from a text box and goes and finds the device number (i.e. deviceharddrive3...) and strips out everything leaving me with the devicer number; in this case the number 3. I have searched the internet to and fro and found nothing in VB.NET.
