Windows XP: Surviving the First Day
Windows XP: Surviving the First Day
(This assume the original release without service packs; and the following assume you have a legal version of windows)
Since its release, a number of severe security vulnerabilities have
been discovered in Windows XP. These vulnerabilities are used by
worms and viruses, making it impossible to connect an unsecured,
unpatched system to the Internet for any amount of time without
risking exposure and infection. Users of new computers are faced
with the dilemma of being infected by these worms before being able
to download the necessary patches.
This guide will show how to install Windows XP securely, without
being infected by these worms during the patching process.
Introduction
The target audience for this guide are home users and small businesses
without a firewall, who rely on downloading patches from Microsoft directly. This
guide is not a Windows hardening guide. See the reference section at the end
for more details regarding hardening Windows. Steps outlined in this guide
should be seen as minimum due diligence to make it through the first day of
using Microsoft Windows XP.
Screen-shots are from Windows XP Professional Edition. However, all
steps outlined here apply to the ’Home’ edition as well.
The guide assumes a new Windows XP install ’from scratch’ using the
Windows XP CD. If you buy a computer with Windows XP pre-installed, some of
these steps may already have been performed for you. Please see the guide for
details. If you are already logged in, skip to the ’Verify Settings’ section.
To keep this guide short, only critical steps are shown. All other settings can
be left in their default state or should be selected in accordance with your
preferences (e.g. language, time zone).
Preparations
Unpack your new PC according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
DO NOT CONNECT THE PC TO ANY NETWORK OR PHONE LINE.
If the computer includes a wireless network card,
turn off any wireless access points within range if possible.
Follow the manufacturers instructions to disable the wireless network
card.
Once you take these precautions, turn the system on. If Windows XP is not
pre-installed, boot from your Windows XP install CD.
