seperate Community Force
Dear: Friends &
Neighbors You'll Definitely
{ { {
SAY WHAT } } }
WHEN YOU READ THIS
Our communities need help! On the road to progress their
will be many things tried, some will work, some will not,
but the main thing is that new revolutionary ideas ahead of
their time must be tried similar to facility architect Frank
Lloyd Right. For those of you who do not know who Frank
Lloyd Right. Mr. Right was the building architect that
built, The Museum of Modern Art which was built back during
the 1960’s. His designs beat a lot of commercial buildings
that are designed and built today.
His type of imaginary thinking we
need more of now within our communities in order to save
them and regain control. Nothing is impossible one of the
reasons our communities fail is because there is no
long-range plan through computers to attack mundane problems
that people need answers to immediately. As a web developer
I, forsee many new ways of implementing new ideas but I feel
our political system is not ready to move on them.
The other day I attended a
political meeting [ The names of the people will stay
anonymous ] there I met
four new community networking people. Little did I know the
need would arise within our community that very week to
utilize all four of those new contacts to help solve a local
residents problem. She was living in daily fear from her
needed Home Care Attendants this resident is restricted to
her wheel chair and cannot help herself unless aided by a
Home Care Attendant. Her son is also bed ridden and needs
assistance to do anything he needs to do.
I have always herd about Home Care
Attendants robbing the people they are supposed to help and
protect but this was the first time. I was confronted with a
situation that I could make an immediate difference. Strange
how our community has 1,000’s of big and small businesses,
churches, and beacon programs but they are not organized
correctly. Strange how no one has gathered all of these
people together under one roof in a meeting room to organize
them into an economic team of strength. Residents who are
physically challenged, along with other local block, tenant
associations and not for profit organizations in need. Would
now be able to receive immediate access to grants and
volunteers provided through the 1,000’s of local businesses
and organizations that make money from local community
residents. Most businesses give nothing back to our
community but lip service and want us to spend more of our
money with their businesses. A total organizing of our
communities as far as I know, has never been done throughout
many of our NYC and other communities across the USA.
{ { {
SAY WHAT } } }
Anyway, I was calling a business
networking associate and some how I was connected to The
Lady that I met in the wheel chair at a community meeting
the other week. At that meeting, the lady in the wheel chair
told her frightening story. She told us that she needed
immediate help, and told us that she had no one in her
immediate family, or cousins that could help her and her
son. The home care attendants were robbing her of money,
broke her computer up, cut the printer cartridge wires so
she could not write anyone or print out a letter and
basically, kept terrorizing her so she would do nothing and
receive no help. I use T-mobile and anything that is made by
man has its limitations but this was the first time my
T-Mobile cell phone called the wrong number but it connected
and placed me in the right place at the right time,
“ TWILIGHT ZONE
STRANGE HA “ MUSIC PLAYING= DO, DO, DO, DO, DO, DO !
Anyway I was then connected to
the lady in the wheel chair who I met at last weeks
community meeting and she told me that she needed immediate
help and was severely “STRESS OUT “ , and repeated that she
needed my help immediately. She then told me her problem and
I felt I had to do something even doe she lived in
Brownsville N.Y USA. I told her when I attended last weeks
community meeting I wrote down the cell phone number of two
brothers who were trying to form a local Brownsville
security patrol unit. I told the lady in the wheel chair
that I would try to get in contact with them, not to worry
and hung up the phone. I immediately called one of the guys
that was forming the local security patrol, told him what
was going on and he jumped into action. I’am proud to say
that they went over to the lady in the wheel chairs house
and read the riot act to the home care attendants. Since
that day the lady in the wheel chair has had no more
problems being that the home care attends now know that “
BABIES GOT BACKUP NOW “ !
{ { {
SAY WHAT } } }
We are currently trying to get the lady in the wheel chair a
new computer donated by a local business and have her
apartment wired with internet cameras so she could survey
her entire apartment by viewing it on her cell phone. This
is just one of the many reasons why we need our own
community security force and businesses to come together to
stop nonsense like this from going on. If she had called the
NYC Police Department, they might not have responded to the
location for hours. Our NYC Police Department is overwhelmed
and it is foolish to think they would have been able to
respond to an incident like this and list it as a high
priority call. When anyone needs help it is always a high
priority call when you are in trouble but I know this is a
large city and it is time to admit that our communities need
additional help. I do not have all of the answers but being
organized in the community gives one confidence, peace of
mind and takes away a lot of the confusion any and everyone
in any community faces anywhere on earth on a daily basics..
The things I’am talking about here could be organized and
operated anywhere and everywhere on earth, to increase
security and the local areas quality of life. Today many
businesses that do have money to give but find it confusing
trying to find the people in the community that really need
the help. Each company has its own set of qualifying rules
and applications and this just makes it even more difficult
to access the grants they have, while not showing the dates
they begin and expire. I believe the system should be
streamlined and their should be one national application
that addresses basic grant application needs with additional
boxes broken down into what a company needs you to fill in
the additional boxes listed as 1, 2, 3 etc this way you can
add any other additional information they may need answered.
Foresight is something
most people do not possess and when you find a person with
it like Frank Lloyd Right, you should team up with them
immediately. One should feel lucky that you know them and
team up with someone that has that type of talent on your
networking contact list. I’ve always said, we need an
independent community security force within each of our NYC
five borough communities. Similar to The Guardian Angels who
have been protecting NYC citizens for many year’s inside of
NYC USA. NYC has the greatest Police Force on earth and yes,
there are many great Police Officers but then there are many
bad Police Officers also; who abuse resident’s and cast a
bad shadow over the rest of the great ones. A separate
community Police Force would be a buffer to make sure
residents are treated fairly, correctly and our local
security force could respond to many of the miscellaneous
calls that bog down Official Police Officer business.
{ { {
SAY WHAT } } }
What do you think ?
Talk about this subject with your friends in our discussion
forum room. Tell a friend about what you read here and tell
them to e-mail their local political representatives to let
them know the time has come to organize all of the
businesses within our communities and to find funding for
independent security patrols.

Here's
Another online Scam To Look Out For
Online scammers
have created a phishing site masquerading as a U.S.-based
bank that launches a live chat window where victims are
tricked into revealing more information, researchers at the
RSA Fraud Action Research Team said on Wednesday.
The chat window messages come through the
browser and not via a typical instant messenger application,
RSA said in a blog post.
The scammer claims to be from the bank's
fraud department and says that the bank is requiring members
to validate their accounts and asks for additional
information such as name, phone number and e-mail address,
according to screen shots. That information could be used to
get access to accounts and money online or over the phone.
The scammers are using the open-source
Jabber IM protocol to manage the one-on-one chat, RSA said.
Meanwhile, the "chat-in-the-middle" phishing attack, as RSA
has dubbed it, is being hosted on a fast flux network that
criminals pay to use that hosts malicious Web sites and
other tools for online scams.
So far, RSA said it has only witnessed
one instance of the attack and has seen no evidence that
stolen credentials are being used to log in to compromised
accounts in real time.
The live chat window asks
phishing victims for name, phone
number and e-mail address.

10 Ways To Avoid Computer
Viruses And Spyware
To have a fighting chance against today’s
rampant security threats, end users have to be informed and
proactive. Here are some practical guidelines they can follow to
minimize the risk of infection and attack.
Oh, the deck is stacked. Don’t think for a minute it’s not. As a
technology professional responsible for securing office
networks, workstations, and servers from viruses, spyware,
adware, Trojans, and other malware infections, I can tell you
that the situation is only getting worse.
A Computer Economics report showed that
annual worldwide malware expenses increased by $10 billion (to
$13 billion) over a recent 10-year span. Google Research
suggests that one in every 10 Web sites is infected with
“drive-by” malware. In June 2009, the Windows Secrets
e-newsletter reported that such seemingly safe Web sites as
Coldwell Banker.com, Variety.com, and even Tennis.com were
exposing Internet Explorer visitors to the Gumblar exploit,
which threatens to compromise visitors’ systems in order to
propagate.
IT professionals must encourage their users
to follow several security practices to minimize virus, spyware,
and malware exposure. But many computer techs are too busy to
spread the word, or they don’t have the time to build an
appropriate memo or handout.
With that in mind, here’s a handy reference
list of 10 steps end users can adopt to avoid infection
(including when using home systems to read and send work e-mail,
create, edit, and distribute documents and spreadsheets, access
the corporate VPN, and perform other office tasks). Post this
list on your Intranet, distribute it in an e-mail, or
download the PDF
version and pass it along to end users. Just be sure the
word gets out. Otherwise, you’re likely to find yourself losing
precious time cleaning and repairing infected systems or entire
networks.
1: Install quality antivirus
Many computer users believe free antivirus
applications, such as those included with an Internet service
provider’s bundled service offering, are sufficient to protect a
computer from virus or spyware infection. However, such free
anti-malware programs typically don’t provide adequate
protection from the ever-growing list of threats.
Instead, all Windows users should install
professional, business-grade antivirus software on their PCs.
Pro-grade antivirus programs update more frequently throughout
the day (thereby providing timely protection against
fast-emerging vulnerabilities), protect against a wider range of
threats (such as rootkits), and enable additional protective
features (such as custom scans).
2: Install real-time anti-spyware protection
Many computer users mistakenly believe that a
single antivirus program with integrated spyware protection
provides sufficient safeguards from adware and spyware. Others
think free anti-spyware applications, combined with an antivirus
utility, deliver capable protection from the skyrocketing number
of spyware threats.
Unfortunately, that’s just not the case. Most
free anti-spyware programs do not provide real-time, or active,
protection from adware, Trojan, and other spyware infections.
While many free programs can detect spyware threats once they’ve
infected a system, typically professional (or fully paid and
licensed) anti-spyware programs are required to prevent
infections and fully remove those infections already present.
3: Keep anti-malware applications current
Antivirus and anti-spyware programs require
regular signature and database updates. Without these critical
updates, anti-malware programs are unable to protect PCs from
the latest threats.
In early 2009, antivirus provider AVG
released statistics revealing that a lot of serious computer
threats are secretive and fast-moving. Many of these infections
are short-lived, but they’re estimated to infect as many as
100,000 to 300,000 new Web sites a day.
Computer users must keep their antivirus and
anti-spyware applications up to date. All Windows users must
take measures to prevent license expiration, thereby ensuring
that their anti-malware programs stay current and continue
providing protection against the most recent threats. Those
threats now spread with alarming speed, thanks to the popularity
of such social media sites as Twitter, Facebook, and My Space.
4: Perform daily scans
Occasionally, virus and spyware threats
escape a system’s active protective engines and infect a system.
The sheer number and volume of potential and new threats make it
inevitable that particularly inventive infections will outsmart
security software. In other cases, users may inadvertently
instruct anti-malware software to allow a virus or spyware
program to run.
Regardless of the infection source, enabling
complete, daily scans of a system’s entire hard drive adds
another layer of protection. These daily scans can be invaluable
in detecting, isolating, and removing infections that initially
escape security software’s attention.
5: Disable autorun
Many viruses work by attaching themselves to
a drive and automatically installing themselves on any other
media connected to the system. As a result, connecting any
network drives, external hard disks, or even thumb drives to a
system can result in the automatic propagation of such threats.
Computer users can disable the Windows
autorun feature by following Microsoft’s recommendations, which
differ by operating system. Microsoft Knowledge Base articles
967715 and
967940
are frequently referenced for this purpose.
6: Disable image previews in Outlook
Simply receiving an infected Outlook e-mail
message, one in which graphics code is used to enable the virus’
execution, can result in a virus infection. Prevent against
automatic infection by disabling image previews in Outlook.
By default, newer versions of Microsoft
Outlook do not automatically display images. But if you or
another user has changed the default security settings, you can
switch them back (using Outlook 2007) by going to Tools | Trust
Center, highlighting the Automatic Download option, and
selecting Don’t Download Pictures Automatically In HTML E-Mail
Messages Or RSS.
7: Don’t click on email links or attachments
It’s a mantra most every Windows user has
heard repeatedly: Don’t click on email links or attachments. Yet
users frequently fail to heed the warning.
Whether distracted, trustful of friends or
colleagues they know, or simply fooled by a crafty email
message, many users forget to be wary of links and attachments
included within email messages, regardless of the source. Simply
clicking on an email link or attachment can, within minutes,
corrupt Windows, infect other machines, and destroy critical
data.
Users should never click on email attachments
without at least first scanning them for viruses using a
business-class anti-malware application. As for clicking on
links, users should access Web sites by opening a browser and
manually navigating to the sites in question.
8: Surf smart
Many business-class anti-malware applications
include browser plug-ins that help protect against drive-by
infections, phishing attacks (in which pages purport to serve
one function when in fact they try to steal personal, financial,
or other sensitive information), and similar exploits. Still
others provide “link protection,” in which Web links are checked
against databases of known-bad pages.
Whenever possible, these preventive features
should be deployed and enabled. Unless the plug-ins interfere
with normal Web browsing, users should leave them enabled. The
same is true for automatic pop-up blockers, such as are included
in Internet Explorer 8, Google’s toolbar, and other popular
browser toolbars.
Regardless, users should never enter user
account, personal, financial, or other sensitive information on
any Web page at which they haven’t manually arrived. They should
instead open a Web browser, enter the address of the page they
need to reach, and enter their information that way, instead of
clicking on a hyperlink and assuming the link has directed them
to the proper URL. Hyperlinks contained within an e-mail message
often redirect users to fraudulent, fake, or unauthorized Web
sites. By entering Web addresses manually, users can help ensure
that they arrive at the actual page they intend.
But even manual entry isn’t foolproof. Hence
the justification for step 10: Deploy DNS protection. More on
that in a moment.
9: Use a hardware-based firewall
Technology professionals and others argue the
benefits of software- versus hardware-based firewalls. Often,
users encounter trouble trying to share printers, access network
resources, and perform other tasks when deploying third-party
software-based firewalls. As a result, I’ve seen many cases
where firewalls have simply been disabled altogether.
But a reliable firewall is indispensable, as
it protects computers from a wide variety of exploits, malicious
network traffic, viruses, worms, and other vulnerabilities.
Unfortunately, by itself, the software-based firewall included
with Windows isn’t sufficient to protect systems from the myriad
robotic attacks affecting all Internet-connected systems. For
this reason, all PCs connected to the Internet should be secured
behind a capable hardware-based firewall.
10: Deploy DNS protection
Internet access introduces a wide variety of
security risks. Among the most disconcerting may be drive-by
infections, in which users only need to visit a compromised Web
page to infect their own PCs (and potentially begin infecting
those of customers, colleagues, and other staff).
Another worry is Web sites that distribute
infected programs, applications, and Trojan files. Still another
threat exists in the form of poisoned DNS attacks, whereby a
compromised DNS server directs you to an unauthorized Web
server. These compromised DNS servers are typically your ISP’s
systems, which usually translate friendly URLs such as yahoo.com
to numeric IP addresses like 69.147.114.224.
Users can protect themselves from all these
threats by changing the way their computers process DNS
services. While a computer professional may be required to
implement the switch, OpenDNS offers free DNS services to
protect users against common phishing, spyware, and other
Web-based hazards.
