Introduction and Motivation
In recent years, a series of Internet worms has exploited the confluence of the relative lack of diversity in system and server software run by Internet-attached hosts, and the ease with which these hosts can communicate. A worm program is self-replicating: it remotely exploits a software vulnerability on a victim host, such that the victim becomes infected, and itself begins remotely infecting other victims. The severity of the worm threat goes far beyond mere inconvenience. The total cost of the Code Red worm epidemic, as measured in lost productivity owing to interruptions in computer and network services, is estimated at $2.6 billion [7].

With Christmas around the corner, the worries once again start to creep into our heads…. Not looking forward to my traditional weight gain over the festive season, aaah waking up feeling not so good after a Christmas party & then still venturing to work the next day, multiple festive dinners and then still wanting to look good in next week’s outfit… well here are some ideas to hopefully help you control the situation a little more.

CMOS Setup Utility

CMOS setup is a hardware configuration program built into the system ROM, called the complementary metaloxide semiconductor (CMOS) Setup Utility. Since most systems are already properly configured and optimized, there is no need to run this utility. You will need to run this utility under the following conditions.

• When changing the system configuration settings
• When redefining the communication ports to prevent any conflicts
• When modifying the power management configuration
• When changing the password or making other changes to the security setup
• When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are prompted (“Run Setup” message) to make changes to the CMOS setup

NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the battery may be bad. In this case, the system cannot retain configuration values in CMOS. Ask a qualified technician for assistance.

Adirondack Region

The Adirondack Park is a vast natural park (6 million acres, or two-and-a-half times the size of Yellowstone National Park) with immense, untouched forests heaved by rugged mountain ranges mirrored in thousands of lakes and ponds.

The 2.7 million acre system of state-owned lands, known as the Adirondack Forest Preserve, has been officially designated “forever wild” and is largely undisturbed by human activity. The Adirondacks offer visitors spectacular views and long, peaceful waterways. The 46 High Peaks in the Park’s northeast mountain range have the state’s highest vantage points (over 4,000 feet). Most of the major highways that serpentine through the Park’s magnificent landscape have been officially designated as Scenic Byways. Over 70 native tree species; 55 species of mammals – such as the fisher, American marten, white-tailed deer, and black bear; 218 different birds including the American bald eagle and the common loon; plus 86 species of fish reside in the Adirondacks.
