I understand what you are stating, and I can agree to a certain point. However, being a security professional, my goal is to have the most secure space I can.
If I remember correctly, 98 could run IE 6, which I believe was SSL v3 compliant, but I get your point. If they are still running 98...
Considering that SSL ver3(and TLS) has superseded ver 2, and most browsers are equipped to handle the updated versions, I would say yes, you should disable SSL ver 2.
I think the first thing you should consider, is why do you want to get into computers? Which course do you think is the one that you want to get into? Which one do you think is more interesting, and you will follow to the end? Don't think of employers needs, think of yourself. If you are not...
Take a look at this:

Pretty much tells you the direction that the government is headed. Once you achieve your CISSP, maintain it, you should be good to go.
Personally, I don't agree with CISSP being the "Grand-daddy", as I am more of a technical guy, hands on, in...
As far as IDS's go, I've dealt with ISS RealSecure/Proventia, Niksun NetDetector, McAfee products, Securify, Sourcefire, and Snort (the free product from Sourcefire). Of them all, Snort by far is the easiest to configure, has a lot more signatures (easy to write them too), and it's free! Just...
CompTIA has a book on their site:

Not that expensive too. Since you already are a member, it should give you that 14% discount.
This may not be on her computer at all. If it is a rule issue, this could very well be the Exchange server that is having this problems. Almost sounds like the Exchange server is not accepting the changes to the user's email account. This also may point out an Exchange database issue. Are any...
CiscoGuy,
I second your feelings on this.
Newb2IT,
Once caveat that I want to throw in there though is that you can test out of some of the MCSA certification requirements by having Security + or A+ and Net + or Server +. This also applies to MCSE.
I had gotten my Network + years ago, then...
Why not think about military service? Not only will you get hands on experience, you can also achieve a degree, get valuable leadership experience, life skills, and generally a kick in the pants to experience things many will not.
College is not for everyone. Wasn't for me. Found that out...
Biff,
Considering that "actualtests" is a brain dump, I don't think you'll get much help from these forums.
As far as difficulty, A+ is designed as a beginner test. Since it is a beginner test, I suggest getting some books, dealing with the newest objectives. If that doesn't sound like...
Find a 95/98/ME box and try to apply DAC. You can't. FAT/FAT32 does not allow you to do so. However, early versions of Unix (OK, Unix has been around a long time) and Linux all were designed with security in mind, so they have had DAC forever (not to mention RBAC and MAC). IMO, Windows didn't...
That's not a protocol. I would more likely call it a security role/model. There really is no protocol in models/roles. That's a system design, not a protocol.
What book are you reading? Personally, I felt the best book I had was Sybex's Security +.
acl03,
I believe you are correct. I've seen/used most of Mark's stuff as well, and this sounds familiar. Started looking over at the VBScript forum, and found some of Mark's FAQs that may assist:

Not to be rude or anything, but this shouldn't even be a conversation for someone who has 18 months experience, like CompTIA advises for the Security + test. Just hope you understand that this studying for the test will only get tougher. Especially the cryptography portion.
DAC is a security model. Yes, in later "security" minded systems, mapping of drives afforded security models, but Pre-NT systems did not.
DAC allows users to assign permissions to files/folders. Whether these files/folders are mapped doesn't matter.
Also, in earlier systems, you could map a...
