| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

Does XP's system restore really do anything?
I'm just wondering if the system restore really does anything. i have a feeling the files still get stored somewhere...

Re: Does XP's system restore really do anything?
all it does is every once and a while the computer takes a "picture" of the hdd. when you restore it it loads the last known good "picture".

Re: Does XP's system restore really do anything?
all it does is take up valueable hdd space..
turn it off
its always preferable just to format/reinstall windows if(when!)it fucks up anyway.

Re: Does XP's system restore really do anything?
I've used it a few times, it can save you--but it isn't bulletproof; apparently there are some viruses that infect the previous restore point to the viruses infection, so your experience may vary.
