There are many methods on the Internet to prevent arp spoofing viruses, install the arpfirewall, bind the gateway address, etc. Below I will provide you with a better and more effective way "npptools. dll to prevent ARP virus processing"
First, let's explain the two questions:
Question:Why can I modify the npptools. dll file permission?
Answer: npptools is missing from ARP spoofing. the dll file cannot be run. Once your machine has an ARP spoofing virus, the virus will first go to npptools. dll file. If the file is found, run the ARP spoofing virus. If the file cannot be found, npptools is displayed. dll error, unable to run. In this way, even if you are infected with the ARP spoofing virus, the virus cannot run (in fact, computer viruses are a program. If the virus program cannot run, what are you afraid !).
Question:Does modifying npptools. dll file permissions affect the operating system?
Answer: deleting this file will not cause any problems to the operating system, but some software can not be used, such as: streamer, network law enforcement, X-WAY, etc, in fact, these software are used by network administrators or hackers to analyze the network. We can't use it for common users, so don't worry.
Then how can we deal with this file to achieve the arp effect? Do I only have permission restrictions?
1:Disk formatIf your disk is in the NTFS format, convert it to the NFS format as follows:
Click "start"> "run"> cmd, open the Command Prompt window, and enter the convert drive letter:/fs: ntfs (if the conversion fails, you may be prompted to run the disk repair command CHKDSK/F, follow the prompts to run the disk repair command, and then perform NTFS conversion .). For example:
Convert D:/fs: ntfs
Important: ① Converting from FAT to NTFS format will not affect the original data on the disk; ② once a drive or partition is converted to NTFS format, you cannot restore it to the FAT or FAT32 format. To return the FAT or FAT32 format, you must reformat the drive or partition and delete all data including programs and personal files from the corresponding partition.
2:DeleteFind the c: windowssystem32pptools. dll and c: windowssystem32dllcachepptools. dll files and delete them.
3:NewLecture c: windowssystem32pptools. dll and c: windowssystem32dllcachepptools. dll: after deletion, create two empty files with the same name to create honey.
4:PermissionRight-click npptools. dll file → properties → click the "security" tab (if there is no "security" option, tool menu → Folder Options → view → remove the check mark before "use simple file sharing ), set all user permissions to deny ,:
Some friends suggested not to delete the file because some viruses will automatically generate the file, so it is useless to delete it. Only set its permissions, so that even if the file is generated by a virus, the file will not be overwritten or modified by viruses because the file already exists and has no permissions. however, I recommend that you delete these files and create two empty files with the same name to create honey. This saves you the trouble. At least we can ensure that you do not need to sniff your computer to steal data .....
