The four ultimate weapons in XP SP2

One of the ultimate weapons: Windows Security Manager

Since August 6, 2004, Microsoft released the official version of Windows XP SP2, the various storms about SP2 have not been interrupted, and Microsoft officially released SP2 This time, nine months later than originally expected, was a year and a half away from the previous service pack for Windows XP. What is the most powerful XP SP2 in history, which is the ultimate weapon that has been long-awaited? Let us review it together.

Nowadays, more and more users are coming into contact with the Internet, and surfing the Internet has become a part of people's daily life. Whether it is chatting online or playing online games, it is a compulsory course for young people. The forest is big, and there are birds. As the network becomes more and more popular, more and more bad substances are also swarming, such as the "virus", "trojan", "spam" and so on.

course, which is a "Trojan" the most vexing, and comes in XP SP2 Security Explorer will be able to help you solve this problem. Since most users don't know if their system is in a safe state, this leaves an opportunity for viruses or hackers to invade. The Windows Security Center monitors whether the system security components are working properly, and it can be used to identify whether the Windows Firewall, Automatic Updates, and Anti-Virus software are working properly in the shortest amount of time.

For normal settings, the Security Center will be displayed in green; if the corresponding option is abnormal (for example, turned off or disabled), it will be marked in red; if the status is unknown, it will be marked in yellow. The options for anti-virus software are more common, mainly because some anti-virus software may not be recognized by the system for some reason. But don't worry, it's not that the anti-virus software doesn't work or is not compatible with the system. The red warning and the yellow error just indicate that the anti-virus software can't be viewed in the security center.

It is important to note that although the firewall and anti-virus software can be set through the security center, these functions are not provided by the security center. The security center only plays a centralized management role.

The Ultimate Arms 2: Windows Firewall Comes Back

Remember the firewall that comes with XP? It didn't give people a good impression at first. I have already eaten it. I remember that when I used BT to download movies, how could the speed not come up (I used 512K ADSL), the theoretical download speed should be At around 70K, but I can only be around 30-40K at the fastest, looking for the cause of the problem, and finally found that Windwos firewall is funny, after closing it, the speed has improved significantly.

but in XP SP2, once tasteless ICF (Internet Connection Firewall) Windows Firewall to debut a whole new look! !

Since it is called Windows Firewall, it should be functionally valid for Windows as a whole, and should not only be used for network connections. In fact, the Windows Firewall is a core security component in XP SP2, and it has become an indispensable security guard. Compared with the original ICF, there has been a significant improvement.

Although Windows Firewall provides a lot of features, it is relatively thin compared to professional-level firewall software. Recently, I heard that Microsoft is about to launch a new independent anti-virus software in February this year. I don't know if Microsoft will perform better this time.
The ultimate weapon of the third: IE refuses to disturb to ensure stability

When you go online, you often encounter automatic pop-ups and advertisements, which is really a headache. At present, many third-party IE browsing softwares have added the function of blocking automatic pop-up windows, and they have been loved by many netizens and loved.

emphasis has always been Microsoft's "humane" (really humane it? ...), is also very close to join the shield automatic pop-up window feature in SP2.

Prior to XP SP2, various ad pop-up window blocking plug-ins emerged in an endless stream, and even Microsoft added this feature to its own MSN Toolbar. Now, with XP SP2, these plugins can be discarded, because Microsoft has also added the function of blocking advertisement pop-ups in IE6SP2, personally feel that this design is still full of practical.
The ultimate weapon of the fourth: full support for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

Xiaobian once had a Nokia 6610 mobile phone, because it has its own infrared function, can be connected to the computer, send some picture ringtones and games, etc. Resources, invisible, will not be rich, and there is no small fee left, so this phone is much loved by Xiaobian.

But the good times are not long, just in August last year, this little edited love was lost. Helpless 俺 can only change the phone, because I am a faithful fan of Nokia, so soon I bought another Nokia 6600, a veritable function phone, the most exciting thing is that in addition to having infrared, it itself Equipped with the function of Bluetooth, Bluetooth is better than infrared in terms of transmission speed and wireless connection. However, when it is connected to the computer with Bluetooth, it is found that the operation is not so convenient and easy to use.

Fortunately, XP SP2, Microsoft Bluetooth again this feature a new design, the control panel inside the new Wireless Network Setup Wizard. With the help of the wizard, would you still not use a wireless device?

In addition, Microsoft has announced that it has supported Bluetooth devices in Windows XP SP1, but to properly use Bluetooth devices, you still need to install a Q323183 patch. However, after installing XP SP2, the Bluetooth device got better support.

After the Bluetooth adapter is properly installed, we can use the “send to” function to send the files from the computer to the Bluetooth device directly in the right-click menu of the folder, or you can use “Start → All Programs → Accessories” The Bluetooth File Transfer Wizard in →Communication is very convenient to receive files sent from Bluetooth devices or to send them to a specified Bluetooth device.
