Hi,

I recently discovered that my whole of my system is being shared secretly by windows ( C$, D$, E$...)...i tried to disable it but all in vain...can anyone explain me what this is and how this can be stopped...

thanx

o its just defautl administrative shares
dun worry its not shared ont he network unless u actually enable it
for ur piece of mind u can disable it by copying following code in a file
save it with .reg extenstion
and run it

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
"restrictanonymous"=dword:00000001
"restrictanonymoussam"=dword:00000001
"everyoneincludesanonymous"=dword:00000000

I get an error doing this.
It says cannot import "filepath":Error opening the file.There may be a disk or file system error

WTF !!
thats the exact same thing i posted u moron
@rachitar .. what exact steps did u follow ?

anyways it wont harm ur system so dun worry !

and u can do it manually
just goto start run
type regedit
and hit enter
browse to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Lsa]
then look for the above 3 parameters and set the appropriate value

that is double click on everyoneincludesanonymous and set the value as 0
repeat for the other 2 parameters and set value as 1

Hey theraven

Even i know that its the same as the one you posted.

But for some unknown reason I got some error while i tried to import it.

So i made the changes manually & exported it from the registry & posted it here.
