Download the .vss file onto your system. Visio 2003 stores the stencils that come with it in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Visio11\1033. You should also have a My Shapes directory under your My Documents directory. I store stencils I've downlaoded there.
To use the new shapes, in Visio, click on File, then Shapes, then My Shapes, if you've stored them in that directory. Then select Netscreen for the Netscreen shapes.

Description:
This program has potentially unwanted behavior
Advice: Review the alert details to see why the software was detected. If you do not like how the software operates or if you do not recognize and trust the publisher, consider, blocking or removing the software.

Also Known As:
Trojan.Win32.Qhost (Kaspersky)
Qhosts.apd (McAfee)Summary
A detection of Win32/PossibleHostsFileHijack is an indicator that your HOSTS file may have been modified by malicious or potentially unwanted software. Modifications to the HOSTS file can cause access to certain Internet domains to be redirected or denied. This may prevent the computer from connecting to certain Web sites.
Symptoms
Situations such as the following may be signs that your HOSTS file has been modified without your consent:
- You are unable to access a certain Web site that you believe is in operation, such as a site that provides programs to help keep your computer secure.
- Your browser connects to a Web site that does not appear to be appropriate, given the Web address you entered.
The hosts file is at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.
In this case Windows Defender is flagging it because it has been modified.
Typically, it doesn't have much more in it than a reference to the
loopback address,
i.e. 127.0.0.1 localhost.
In the case of this laptop, Spy Sweeper added entries such as the following:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 1.httpdads.com #SpySweeperCASS
127.0.0.1 207-87-18-203.wsmg.digex.net #SpySweeperCASS
127.0.0.1 a.mktw.net #SpySweeperCASS
127.0.0.1 a.tribalfusion.com #SpySweeperCASS
Many antispyware programs, such as Spy Sweeper or
Spybot Search & Destroy, will
add entries to the hosts file,
pointing the address to malicious sites or those that distribute adware/spyware
to the loopback address, 127.0.0.1, instead. That ensures that if
the the system attempts to contact one of those sites, such as
httpdads.com , which is listed by SpySweeper, which is antispyware
software produced by
Webroot Software, Inc., that instead of
going to the website distributing the malware, the system instead is directed
to the local loopback address on the system itself, preventing the system
from contacting the actual website.
So, in this case, I can consider the report a "false positive" and instruct Windows Defender to ignore it.
%25%20 representing the spaces
in the file names, e.g. "Pulte Contact Information.xls" appeared
as "Pulte%25%20Contact%25%20Information.xls". The attachments were
stored in M:\attach, so I saw the following when I moved the
cursor over that file:
file:///M:/attach/Pulte%25%20Contact%25%20Information.xlsWhen I double-clicked on the attachment, I saw the following error message.
| M:\attach\Pulte%20Contact%20Information.xls |
|
Windows cannot find 'M:\attach\Pulte%20Contact%20Information.xls'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

A percent sign followed by 20, i.e. %20, is often used to represent
a space in filenames within HTML documents, but I didn't know why %25%20 was
appearing.
At Corrup path to mail attachments: includes %2520, I found someone reporting a similar problem. A respondent to the original poster provided the following comment:
This happens only when you "use Microsoft's viewer," which means that every email window is actually an Internet Explorer window, in which spaces are not allowed in URLs.
%25 itself represents the character "%" - so after one interpretation by the browser, %2520 becomes %20, which when interpreted a second time represents one space.
However, I get only forward slashes [/] in my paths when using this mode, which also begin with file:///C:/... [three initial forward slashes]
When not "using Microsoft's viewer," then you get backward slashes [\] and the path is file://C:\... [with no %, just spaces]
That described what I saw. I saw forward slashes for the full directory path when I hovered the mouse over the attachment name, but backslashes were listed in the error message that appeared.
Someone else suggested unchecking "Use Microsoft Viewer" in "Tools|Options|ViewingMail". I clicked on Tools, Options, and selected Viewing Mail. I saw the following:
I unchecked "Use Microsoft's viewer". After closing and reopening Eudora, I was then able to view attachments with spaces in the filenames by double-clicking on them. I noticed that Eudora was now displaying backslashes in the filenames, which is the convention used by Microsoft Windows, when I moved the mouse over them instead of the forward slashes it showed previously.

Mark Sunner, MessageLabs MessageLabs' chief security analyst, reported that spammers are now also using Google Docs and Microsoft's SkyDrive free online storage to host the contents of their spam messages. The spammers put a link into the messages they send pointing to online documents hosted on those services, which have the advantage of providing large amounts of bandwidth.

I've used Office Depot's recycling program. You can buy boxes in several different sizes into which you can place electronic items to be recycled. You bring the boxes back to the store where someone checks that the items they contain are on the list of those that Office Depot states they will recycle when you buy the boxes. The cost of the boxes depends on their size. A small box is $5, a medium one is $10, and a large one is $15. Details on the program are available at Tech Recycling Services.
Staples also has a recycling program. Details on their program can be found at Staples Soul - Recycling. According to the Staple's website, "A recycling fee of $10 per piece of large equipment is charged to cover handling, transport, product disassembly and recycling. Smaller computer peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and speakers are accepted at no charge."
Engadget has information on other recycling services at http://www.engadget.com/tag/recycling, including information on a U.S. Postal Service recyling program where the Postal Service allows you to ship items to a recycling company for free.
Another service I found mentioned in comments to a June 2, 2008 engadget article, Staples to stock Flexplay self-destructing DVDs was GreenDisk. GreenDisk recycles the following items:
According to the article, Amazon's founder, Jeff Bezos, has said that there are 125,000 books available for the Kindle. I didn't know it also could allow you to surf the web or listen to music in MP3 form. One of those posting comments to the article stated the following:
Frank - the Kindle can check e-mail, surf the web, & play mp3s. The browser still needs some work but it is usable. Internet service is free and at decent speeds as long as you are in a Sprint service area. The Kindle is definitely a niche device but could become more mainstream with some changes, primarily price & a larger screen. IMO it's not as ugly in real life as the pictures represent on the web but could use a better design. I have a few other quibbles with it but have no regrets in buying one.
