The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How any vulnerability or exploit could be used by hacker in secure network environement?

Asked by A1opus in Networking Security Vulnerabilities, Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP Embedded

I was thinking about this question that there are lots of alerts from Microsoft that there is a vulnerability or exploit in their any product which could be used by hacker and they can control your machine, etc, etc.

For example, I will take the example of the following exploit which is announced recently by Microsoft:

Microsoft Security Advisory: Vulnerability in Microsoft Video ActiveX control could allow remote code execution (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972890)

Now we have a very secure network, firewall, 802.1x authentication, etc, etc. How any hacker could exploit this vulnerability? I really like to know about the mechanism so I can take relevant counter steps.

I hope the question is well briefed...... Please advise as necessary.
