I'm running W2k.
If I suddenly can't connect after months of everything working properly, I figure the ISP changed something in their system. But it was MY dialup settings that changed. And when the security settings for a seldom used and insignificant library file suddenly get changed about the same time, then I get suspicious. The library file has no connection to dialup.
When I checked, it was showing todays date, so the settings were changed today. Both of these changes need access to the admin account.
Both were easily fixed, but otherwise, I have not been into the admin account in weeks. There were no Windows updates to load, so it's not likely the changes were caused by Windows update. And nothing out of the ordinary was experienced. I received one security update from Trend Micro, but I don't think their updates mess with system settings.
Otherwise, the computer is clean of viruses and everything works as normal.
Anybody see anything familiar, and can tell me what caused this?
