Thirteen rules that must be observed to maintain XP system security

  
                



Although the Windows operating system left us with a lot of unsatisfactory memories, we have to admit that Windows is still one of the most widely used systems. In the face of such a large and complex operating system, it is imperative to protect its security. For the current security technologies and concepts related to Windows, this article will recommend the following methods to help users better understand Windows security mechanisms.
1, must install firewall and anti-virus software
Although in the face of new viruses, anti-virus software will become overwhelmed, it is better to go online to find anti-virus methods. But there is an additional barrier to anti-virus software. No matter how high or how short this barrier is, it always benefits more than harm.
Firewalls must also be installed. It is also a good idea to install some programs that monitor network processes to monitor for malicious programs.
2, for the Administrator user to reduce the power
In the Windows operating system, the Administrator is the most advanced user, can not be seen in the normal login mode, so it is easy to ignore the security problems brought by the Administrator user.
The initial password of the Administrator user is empty. If the firewall is not installed, the hacker can easily access your computer through the Administrator account. It’s too late to do anything at this time.
In fact, this is not a downgrade, it is to create a fake, unrealized Administrator user.
The specific operation is as follows, first log in to Windows with a non-Administrator administrator account, and then open: Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Local Users and Groups - Users, delete the Administrator user, and then create a new Administrator user. Right-click to set the password. The complexity of the password is more complicated, let it belong to the lowest level user group, and check the account is disabled in the properties.
This way, even if someone else cracked your Administrator account, after entering, they found that it was just an account that didn't use real power. In fact, delete this user directly. This method is used online, wasting feelings and time.
3, prohibit all disks from running automatically
Now U disk virus is prevalent, a little careless will lead to “ grid & rdquo;. The general operating mechanism of the U disk virus is automatically run by double-clicking the drive letter. Therefore, disabling the automatic operation of all disks is a very effective preventive measure.
The specific operation process is: run the input gpedIT.msc-->User Configuration-->Administrative Template-->System, double-click [Automatically Close] in the list on the right, select “All Drives&rdquo ;, then select “Started”. Make sure to quit. Turn off a service used for autoplay
Run-->services.msc-->Shell Hardware Detection Service-->Startup Type-->Disable
4.Do not double-click U disk
> If you have no way to disable all disks from running automatically, or if you are using a USB flash drive on someone else's computer, it is best not to double-click on the USB flash drive. This is very easy to trigger a U disk virus, the best way is to first scan with anti-virus software.
The general removal method of the virus in the U disk is to go through the resource manager to see if there is an autorun.inf file in the U disk, which is usually hidden. Delete the autorun.inf file and the program it points to, then re-plug the USB flash drive.
5, often check the boot startup items
often enter msconfig in the run to view the startup items, found that there are abnormalities immediately on the Internet to find information to see if it is a virus. Then use regedit. Find the run item and check the startup project.
