Re: SPYBOT S&D 1.3 - DSO EXPLOIT GONE! The person you want to discuss these changes and options would be a member at our forum with the nickname of R2.
But you can read some here about options. How to Enable the My Computer Security Zone in Internet Options

Lock Down My Computer
The next thing to do is lock down the My Computer zone, just as I recommend doing with .NET security policy. This is likely to break any applications you have that show HTML UI from the local machine, so you may want to experiment with this for a bit. Make sure you back up this key before hand (as instructed above)!
The main reason you would want to lock down My Computer is that most of the recent exploits for IE have relied on the fact that you can either "trick" the browser into thinking it is loading content off the local machine when really it is just reading cached content from the web, or you can overwrite a file in a well-known location and get the browser to load it. Basically this means that someone can send you to a webpage that downloads malicious code to your local machine and then re-directs IE to the downloaded version, and gets it to run with elevated privileges because it's considered to be on the (trusted) local machine rather than the (untrusted) internet.

 | reply to Dustyn NOOB-Question!!!!!
This thing about the DSO Exploit just happened to me as well. I installed spybot S&D after my Antivir had found the SpyBot.DG worm on my system. I deleted it but was not sure if it still was inside my system. So I found spybot S&D installed and checked System. My Problem is that I am not that good at english and the Instructions above are hard to handle.
Question 1: Is that Exploit a failure in SpyBot or is it cause that worm i had is still on my system.
Question 2: If it is a Problem of SpyBot S&D is it ok to ignore it or must it be solved.
Would be very nice if anybody could help my cause I have already spent hours trying to find a Repairtool
Thx |

| Hi HMan:
It's a Spybot Search & Destroy bug that is okay to ignore. But I decided to go a head and fix it manually by cleaning up the bad registry keys. The creator of Spybot S&D will be coming out with an automatic fix to patch the DSO exploit in the future. So you can fix it manually, ignore it, or wait until a patch from Spybot S&D is released.
As for your first question I'm not 100% sure what your asking? Hopefully somebody else can help? -- "A man can tell a thousand lies, Ive learned my lesson well, Hope I live to tell the secrets I have learned, till then, It will burn inside of me..." ~ Madonna |
