Another damn virus.

[..:RUDI:..]

The sheer speed of Linux console, surprising how fast nothingness can run

Just dont open any unknown email attachments as usual common sense.

Kama Sutra virus = Blackworm = MyWife = and so on.

Just dont open any unknown email attachments as usual common sense.

Remember that common sense is not for the common people

On one of my Linux servers once I made the mistake of adding a space when using rm (rm -rf / adam ). I realised as soon I had hit the enter key what I had done and stopped it, however in that fraction of a second some 100,000 files were deleted.

o0o0o0o that's gotta sux i once accidentally formatted my ftp server hardrive i didnt know it so a few guys were complaing there wasnt anything on it so i checked out... went and smacked my head aginst a wall.... multiple times

I laugh at you.

NAh, i've done it before, lost my Linux instalation... Ooops.

[..:RUDI:..]

I nearly did it when I was a linux n00b, but I did my research into the command

[dark_shadow]

lol ah i havent used linux in a long time (the ftp server was win 2000)

[..:RUDI:..]

Well, I went from Windows Server 2003, because although it hadnt happened on this install, lsass.exe ALWAYS crashes about 20 mins into boot, and It's not the sasser virus btw, so I went over to Linux and well, there we have it

You can also get a free online visus scan for free from the Symantec Norton AV site.

Yeah. Not all free things are actually free.

[RobDog888]

Why I can scan my system with either one and they work just fine.

[visualAd]

Yeah. Not all free things are actually free.

Only the free stuff is truely free.

[RobDog888]

Not always true. Some of the pay stuff is free too, but you get what you pay for.


I still have my doc, xls,pdf, etc. files.

[CornedBee]

People, just set the time BACK!

[dark_shadow]

same here

[RobDog888]

Naw, live dangerously. If you get allot of porn in your email then you will have to worry. Its supposed to come in an email disguised as some kind of porn offer. The virus will run every month on the 3rd unless its cleaned.

[fahad k]

Another 3 hrs 14 mins n few seconds left.

[RobDog888]

What is it executed at a particular time? I thought it was just by the date?

[dark_shadow]

that's why i download all my porn using p2p programs never get any emails about it

[sevenhalo]

@ dark_shadow; you're not serious?

[dark_shadow]

sure as hell am

[RobDog888]

Thats why he lurks in the dark 7halo.

[dark_shadow]

lol oh so true

[fahad k]

What is it executed at a particular time? I thought it was just by the date?

2 hrs 57 mins and few seconds for 4th Feb.

[sevenhalo]

I can't beleive I'm telling you this, but use the free index sites. They get paid per click; so they won't have alternative motives to offer you free... entertainment. P2p sites are a breeding ground to pick something up. All someone has to do is encapsulate a file and leave it in their shared. As soon as you search for... Whatever it is you're into, you might end up requesting a virus instead of accidently getting one.

[sevenhalo]

The funny thing about this virus is that Symantec doesn't look phased at all:



Even small virus' that receive virtually no media attention pop it up to a two.

(If you can't see the image, it's threatcon 1)

[fahad k]

Well my p2p shows a .rar file for every search i do with size fo around 150kb.Starnge thing is the result shows <keyword>.rar.

[dark_shadow]

:S hmmm limewire and aries have never done that for me lol and if all else fails my dad has a hidden stash i can always use

[fahad k]

Well my p2p is limewire.

[dark_shadow]

well mine hasnt done that so you suck

[..:RUDI:..]

The virus files in Limewire are around 85*.*kb, nothing else.

[sevenhalo]

Yay, we made it!

[dglienna]

Avast! came out with another update today. I'm confident that it is a great product.

[si_the_geek]

Here's an extract from an email I received this morning (Feb. 4th):

If you upgrade to [product] Antivirus before Feb. 3, it will detect and remove existing BlackWorm infections and prevent future infections.

They've got good timing!
