Enabled: 1 (Local)
InputProvider: 1 (Local)
3. Allow rule in the firewall
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name=”NTP Server” dir=in protocol=udp localport=123 profile=any enable=yes action=allow
4. Test the service from external system
w32tm /stripchart /computer:192.168.0.10 /samples:4 /dataonly
EFF – Is your browser safe against tracking?
When you visit a website, online trackers and the site itself may be able to identify you – even if you’ve installed software to protect yourself. It’s possible to configure your browser to thwart tracking, but many people don’t know how.
Panopticlick will analyze how well your browser and add-ons protect you against online tracking techniques. We’ll also see if your system is uniquely configured—and thus identifiable—even if you are using privacy-protective software.
