1. Disable USB Devices:
Disabling USB ports can be a smart idea
to add security to the computer.
This can be really handy if the
computer is on a public place where
the chances of virus and other
malware infection is really high.
You can easily disable access to USB
ports with the following registry hack:
- Open the Registry Editor (Start -> Run -> Type regedit and hit Enter)
- In the registry, navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UsbStor - In the right-side pane, double-click on “Start”.
- In the “Value data” field enter 4 and click on “OK”.
- Close the Registry Editor and reboot.
