1. I have wondered what information is stored on the Internet about my
searches. What does Microsoft Live search store? I ask this as I know
that if you use Google they can store the searches my either IP
addresses or my machine name and the only way that I can figure to
remove them is to get a gmail account and delete the web search
history that way.
Do the other web search firms get search data like Google?
2. Steve Gibson talked about Ram Hijacks and has this paper
http://citp.princeton.edu/memory/ linked on this web site:
http://www.grc.com/securitynow.html. I have wondered what data is
stored in the windows filed called pagefile.sys and hibernation.sys
and can it be stolen? If so, why doesn't clear the pagefile as the
default?
3. Why is the "reliability monitor" 1 day late in reporting
information? If I work on a Vista machine and use this monitor as a
nice chart, I would be hosed.
4. Why doesn't the Vista event viewer show "Blue screen of death" and
the related codes for it?
5. I got a Blue Screen of Death on my Windows Vista Home Premium
machine this AM as the machine was booting up. I downloaded the
Windows Vista SP1 RTM symbols from
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtoo...symbolpkg.mspx.
windbg tells me that I have the wrong symbol sets. Why?????
Also when the machine first booted up, I got a dialog box telling me
that I could either cancel the dialog box or check later for the
reason for BSOD. Why couldn't I check now?
Why is there a better GUI for bedugging Windows BSOD???
5. What files the SP1 installed on my Vista Home Premium machine don't
work? Other files like recdisc.exe???
Linear Mode
