All aspects of Windows XP system operating strategy

System security issues can not be relaxed at any time, to build a secure system requires long-term maintenance and methods. Microsoft's next-generation operating system, vista, has been around for a while, but due to several reasons such as the update of the user's hardware system and the compatibility of the software with the Vista system, most users are still using Windows XP systems. Therefore, it is necessary to revisit the old words. In this article, I will talk about some aspects of Windows XP's operation strategy, so that there are as few attacks as possible from viruses and hackers.

1. Block unwanted service components

Although the more service components are installed, the more service features users can enjoy. However, the service components that users usually use are still limited, and those components that are rarely used not only take up a lot of system resources, but also cause system instability. It also provides multiple ways for hackers to remotely invade. Therefore, we should try to shield those service components that are not needed. The specific operation method is as follows: first find the “Services and Applications” icon in the control panel, and then open the “Services” dialog box, select the program to be shielded in the dialog box, and click the right mouse button. From the shortcut menu that pops up, select the “property”/“stop” command, and set the “startup type" to “manual" or "disabled", so that it can be specified The service component is blocked.

2, timely use Windows Update to update the system

Windows Update as an important component of Microsoft's protection system security and improve Windows performance, has now entered its V6 version. Through it, we can not only get the component service pack (such as the current popular Windows XP Service Pack 2) that can improve the system function and performance, but also get the latest security vulnerability patch, of course, you can also get the latest hardware driver. The latest and most popular viruses, trojans, worms, etc. usually take advantage of the latest vulnerabilities in the operating system. If the latest patches are upgraded before it is attacked on a large scale, the chances of a computer being attacked will be greatly reduced. .

3, encrypt important information

In order to prevent others from using their own computers, peek at the information stored in the computer, Windows XP specifically for our ordinary users “File and Folder Encryption" function, which allows us to encrypt important information stored on the computer so that other users cannot access the contents of the file or folder without a password. When encrypting a file, we first open the Windows XP Explorer, then find the file or folder that needs to be encrypted in the Explorer window, then right-click on the selected file or folder and pop it up. In the shortcut menu, select the “Properties” command, and then Windows XP will pop up the file encryption dialog box, click the “General” tab in the dialog box, and then select “ldquo;Advanced” to encrypt the content. Protect data & rdquo; just fine.

4, Lock your computer

If you need to leave your computer for a short while in the process of using your computer, many people will often take the lead if they are worried that their computer will be occupied by others. Shut down, then leave, then come back and turn it on again, but it is not good for the computer to switch the machine frequently. So, is there a way we can do it without shutting down and preventing others from using our own computer? The method is of course, you can quickly lock the keyboard and display by double-clicking the desktop shortcut without using CTRL+ALT+DEL Key combination or screen saver.

When locking your computer, you can follow the steps below: Right-click on the Windows XP desktop, then select New/Shortcut in the context menu, and then follow the on-screen prompts. In the command line text box, enter rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation command characters, and then enter the specific name of the corresponding shortcut in the subsequent wizard window, here for the convenience of later calls, you can directly take the shortcut It's ok to lock the computer. In the future, you can achieve the purpose of locking by simply double-clicking "Lock Computer" on the desktop. Or you can directly press the “windows key + L & rdquo; shortcut to lock the computer.
