Re: What is the domain "nrb.footprintdns.com"??
Well, for me Kasp takes care, by keeping that fellow incommunicado. But probably that may be a doubtful information, since these are the Microsoft servers domains, unless Microsoft itself is compromised or are deliberately compromising their official, licenced users.44KViews0likes0CommentsRe: What is the domain "nrb.footprintdns.com"??
Simple- Kasp says that the domain safety certificate is issued by some one, on whom either Kasp has no confidence on, or doesn't even know about it. In that case, the domain could be safe, could be unsafe (hackable), or could be even malicious by itself. If I have Kasp on, I will go by its advice. Even if it is against MS' own domain (which it isn't, but is a sub-let domain). Let MS do its security analysis and ensure that the firewalls don't flag it down.45KViews1like0CommentsRe: What is the domain "nrb.footprintdns.com"??
I do know that they try to track, but naturally I won't like to be tracked, even when I am not doing anything that "deserve" to be tracked :-) And doing it for the authentic (i.e. licenced) users, is something I won't even appreciate. User Experience improvement ? I am old-timer, and I won't agree to, at the cost of invasion of privacy. Whether my data is being sold or not is immaterial. The raw data is collected, and I am sure is stored. The statistical report is next stage, and no one destroys raw data, even after the concise report is generated (at least as ex-student of Statistics, I won't, since these could be used for some further study, on some other aspect). By the way, the Kasp had, when I checked, blocked Chrome browser too. That was done without notifying me. I am thankful to Kasp, except that they shouldn't bother me by notifying, let them just block these. May be I would have to tell Kasp, that after a few "Disallow" s, they could as well black-list these domains, for my subscription at least.83KViews2likes0CommentsRe: What is the domain "nrb.footprintdns.com"??
I wonder, are we all 'affected persons' under KAV protection? I just checked up the log of KAV, and it seems quite interesting. It has blocked the footprint not only for outlook but for others too , like ms-excel. Probably if I open up other ms-office files it would do it the same for others. The domain name "Foot-print" does not seem to be too innocuous. In addition there is something else too.... probably you people could check up - KAV has blocked several other programs (all windows) - from data mining from other files ! I wonder is Microsoft illegally trying to acquire data ? Is it the reason why they are silent on this topic ? Things look too Phishy. Despite the Russian connection, may be we have to be thankful to Kasp84KViews1like5CommentsRe: What is the domain "nrb.footprintdns.com"??
Still no response from MS ? Till today it was silent, but now, all the computers are getting this message, and the firewall installed is blocking it (the security certificate is not from a known or approved agency) Anyway, it isn't affecting the operation, so I think it is immaterial, except the nuisance value. But which group of microsoft is tryying to fish here ? The Office 365 group or the windows ?84KViews0likes9Comments
