Disable Admin Shares

 

 

 

Recent viruses use admin shares to infiltrate your system, to disable them:
 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
 
Create new DWORD value called AutoShareWks (AutoShareServer on servers) and set it to zero. Once completed, type "net share" at a command prompt, it should return the following:

 


C:\Windows\system32>net share

Share name   Resource                        Remark

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IPC$                                         Remote IPC
The command completed successfully.


C:\Windows\system32>
