AFAIK, you can only install windows by booting to its installation CD. If it does have an upgrade installer, it's not going to run in Linux, even if you use wine. You have to boot to the windows...

They are "disabled" in the sense that there is nothing significant listening on any ports so your system wouldn't accept any connections. Why filter connections no applications are going to accept...
By "root/downloads/neroAacEnc" do you mean the absolute path "/root/downloads/neroAacEnc". Are you sure the "downloads" directory isn't "Downloads"? Why is it saved in root's home directory? You...
Tor isn't an HTTP proxy. Port 8118, is that privoxy? Your local HTTP proxy is what is removing the HTTP referrer, not tor. You can simply not use your HTTP proxy, and use only tor. I believe you just...
Firefox is used on both. Many firefox vulnerabilities can be exploited on either OS. The biggest concern is probably the non-free adobe flash plugin, though. The browser (with plugins) is probably...
Is this a desktop installation? How is networking configured?
cat /etc/network/interfaces
I believe both mp4 and flv video files residing on the local filesystem play with the totem media player by default. Either format can potentially exploit a vulnerability in the gstreamer decoder,...
+1 for wireshark, but this command would show you all network connections (what process is connecting where on what port).
sudo netstat -tnp
That IS the IP you are using, then. However, the question is whether that IP is used exclusively by your router. If so, then all you need is to configure your router to forward unsolicited traffic it...
Also, you shouldn't have edited apache2.conf. That line should already be in ports.conf, and shouldn't appear twice in your configuration files. And it is best to allow the a2ensite, a2dissite,...
Why are you using getdeb? It is in the ubuntu repos.
I'm guessing you're trying to install an old version which no longer exists in getdeb's repos because your package index is outdated.

You should not set a root password. It is safer to have no valid root password, which is the default. Recovery mode should work without requiring a password when no root password is set. I think you...
This command is a little more informative, for future reference.
sudo netstat -tnp
Authentication attempts such as that are very common. Bots will check random IP's to see if it is hosting a SSH server, and if they are, it will attempt to authenticate using weak passwords and...
Yes, but I think the concern was for privilege escalation in general, not specifically for browser exploits. I'm guessing a javascript browser exploit was only an example.
Technically, if your browser is compromised in a way that allows the attacker to execute arbitrary code, they could wait for you to use sudo, kill your terminal session, re-use your tty, then use...
As I already said, if the client gives "Permission denied", then it must be connecting to a SSH server. Considering that he is connecting to some SSH server, and he can access the web server using...
5.2.4-2ubuntu5.10 > 5.2.4
Fixes made in more recent releases get backported to the stable version (5.2.4) in the repos.

That often is a problem with some routers, although some will work. It seems to work fine for his web server, and he seems to connect to a server but fails to authenticate. Perhaps their router is...

Well, you never even told us what the java process is, so how can we tell you how to configure which ports it listens on? There is no universal way to tell a process to stop listening on a particular...
Try a simpler use case, such as the one I posted. For all I know, your problem with that script is that the class is instantiated an infinite number of times.
Why are you using ClamAV if you no longer have Windows Vista installed? What are you trying to accomplish? How are you trying to update the definitions, and how is it failing?
The package is...
Post the FULL php script which you're having a problem with, except remove the password. Or just try mine I posted. Then maybe post the output for:
