I am wondering if this is a suitable solution. Could one not set up a passive
defence by over writing the presented home-pages at a predeterminded time and
at some other trigger such as a write or copy. Any unauthorized action could
also be used as a trigger to just "over write". The real home-page coud be
anywhere accessable only by the OS itself or another hardened location not
presented to the world. I am used to the Unix world and have more experience
there than NT.
Any Ideas? Thoughts? Or is this out in left field?
