Customize the default network connection for the system

And it only shuts down unnecessary automatic connectors, such as error reporting, checking upgrades, etc., so it won't do any harm to your system. The download address of the software is: www.3382.net/ut/attach/178263-XPAntiSpy2.exe, of course, it is also included in our CD.

Use different network configurations in Windows XP

If you use a laptop to surf the Internet in different places, you need to change the computer's network settings every time. There is a way to make the job easier. Whenever you configure a network environment for your computer, press the Win+ Pause key, save the configuration file to "hardware" or "hardware configuration file", and name the file windows7 system to download according to your preference.

Special tips for Windows XP shares and permissions

Using the NTFS file system, you can get permission settings, disk quotas, and folder encryption features. But you know what? Simple file sharing in Windows XP makes it difficult for you to set NTFS permissions-after installing Windows XP, if you use the default settings, it is all simple file sharing. Right-click a folder at this time, and you will find that there are no permissions and encryption options to set, but only one sharing option that cannot be set as private. This is designed by Microsoft to prevent beginners from being unable to access files with improper NTFS permissions. You must click the tools → folder option → View in Explorer to remove the hook before using simple File sharing before you can open the NTFS permission setting option in the folder properties window.

Tips

However, it should be noted that if your machine is connected to the local area network and simple file sharing is prohibited, it is not convenient for other users to access your files (for example, the root directory of a shared drive is more difficult to set), it is recommended to first use the simple file sharing function to set up the drive and folder to be shared, and then disable it to set NTFS permissions. If the order is out of order, that is, to open simple file sharing again after setting the NTFS permission, Windows XP will reset your NTFS permission to the default state, and you need to reset it again.

Refuse an objectionable disturbance

Sometimes, a window may pop up on the screen with a variety of contents, many of which are mischievous, such as "if you have detected that you are using a pirated Windows, please format the hard drive immediately." Kind of. You may wonder, what's going on? is it a new virus? In fact, this is caused by one of Windows 2000/XP 's services: Messenger. The service is enabled by default, so that anyone who knows your IP address can send you a message by typing: net send [your IP address] [message content] in the command line prompt. Originally, this is a very useful service, especially suitable for communicating with each other in the LAN environment. But some people write programs to send prank messages in batches to a certain IP address field. If you can't stand these interruptions, the easy way is to install a network firewall so that you can keep these pranks out the door. You can also directly prohibit the operation of the Messenger service, click "start" → "run", enter: services.msc, enter and open the "service configuration program", find and double-click the Messenger service, set it to "disabled" in the startup type, and then stop the service. In this way, you will never receive such interruptions again.

Quickly view network information

In Windows XP, Microsoft has added a "networking" tab for the Task Manager, where you can see the waveform of the current connection as well as important data. If you think the default information is not enough, you can click "View" → "selection column". There are a lot of options here that you can choose according to your needs.
