Hiding your SSID from being broadcast is a fail, because in my studies earlier in the year on Network+ I learnt people can still find your SSID anyway. Hiding it from General users this is good, but against someone who knows what they're doing...it's not enough .

ah you're right i google it and they can find hiding SSID with: Kissmet
Yeah i read it somewhere on a website they said people who do not turn off SSID broadcast are a bad system/Network administrator.

Interesting to know all this :cool:

You don't even need to use other software to find them, Windows 7 its self gives you what you need to find SSID's that have been hidden. Yep, i'm gonna give you guys a minute to let that sink in......

You set up honey pots if you know what you are doing, if you know they are coming you set a trap 😛

The spy that spied on the spy that was spying on that spy to begin with. Very "1984".

To save you searching google and coming up with whinny the Poo.

I'm using Norton NIS, and have system sharing off
(only turn on system sharing for trusted computers, when need to share)
Norton Power Eracer

ComboFix
(This one is for really hard problems, very aggressive, only if really needed)

ComboFix is the Mac Daddy of removal tools. It's also not a standard anti-malware tool so much as it is a major problem solver. When you have malware that simply won't go away (and you suspect something a bit uglier -- like a rootkit or Trojan -- that keeps re-infecting your machine), you want this tool. I recommend ComboFix, but with a warning: It's powerful. Very powerful. Do not leave the executable for this tool just lying around. Use it and remove it. And unlike most malware removal tools, you (or the end user) won't be using the PC while this tool is running.
