Windows XP System Security In The Logout State.

by compumind . Updated 17 years, 1 month ago

Hi everybody –

When you logout into the Welcome screen in Windows XP, is it possible for a security breach (attack) in that “idle” state?

I wonder if XP itself permits or denies any inbound/outbound network traffic during this period. Unfortunately, I cannot locate an answer to this question.

What about Vista, as well?

TIA!
