[What Has Happen Joker]

me to ive had her site in my favourites for some years.and i often visit it now and then. hope she comes here.she was a member of 2-3 other boards.and she left c.f.h with the huffs.because she opened an attachement and got a virus.from the attachment .

she posted about it and some one berated her for opening that attachment

i think the poster was a regular to the boar.so joker said im outa here and i wont be back.ive been trying to remembe the name of the poster who gave her a hard time.i think it was some one from c.f.h who she got emails from

i felt so sorry for her.at the time i posted to the person concerned and gave him an earful

and i got a stock answer he said for an expereince poster like her she shouldnt have opened that attache.

so we left it at that from then on i would never post on the same thread as that person.

mongrels belong in kennels.i tried to contact her butwithout any results.

when she first put her site called hotspots she used to put an email address on the site but it got no answer

2. Proof-of-Concept Virus – W64_SHRUGGLE.A (Low Risk)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

W64_SHRUGGLE.A is the second malware discovered that infects 64-bit

Windows Portable Executable (PE) files. The first such virus, W64_RUGRAT.A,

and this virus are believed to be created by the same author, who calls

himself roy g biv. While W64_RUGRAT.A infected 64-bit files running on

IA64 (Intel Itanium) processors, this virus is intended to infect PE files

running on AMD 64-bit systems. Both of these 64-bit viruses are considered

proof-of-concept viruses, meaning the author is probably trying to prove

that new systems are susceptible to virus attacks. W64_SHRUGGLE.A is

currently spreading in-the-wild, and infecting Windows 64-bit systems.

Upon execution , this virus searches for target files in the current

folder and subfolders. It then infects every 64-bit file (AMD64 only) that it

finds. It then passes this file through some filtering criteria, appends

its code to the last section of the host file, and then modifies the

section as executable. Garbage data may be appended at the end of the virus

code to further avoid detection.

This virus does not infect 32-bit files and does not run in 32-bit

processors without software to support AMD64-bit programs. All infected files

contain the following signature string: "Shrug - roy g biv"

[Make Yourself A Bootable Xp Cd]

Thanks CurlingSteve!

That sounds a lot better then what I use to recommend. Which was....

Ultimate Boot CD

Although maybe it is a little different but not by much. I think having both of those programs would be a great thing to have just in case.

B

hi B i bought the ultimate bootdisk and im not sure if it is the ultimate or not

here where i live it cost $12.

so im on a learning curve on how to use the thing.

i bought it because i wanted to use a boot for things other than windows

and i refer to mandrake or linux.but in the menu i see there is also boots for dos

win9x mac ect i havent been through the menu yet.but i could do with a few pointers.

you don't need to use a separate program to wipe the drive.

when you delete the existing partition(s), make new one's and then format the partitions, you'll have effectively wiped out the previously stored files.

the only proper thing to do with an infected cd is to physically break it, then throw it away. this avoids the possiblity of forgetting weeks or months later that it is infected and then putting it in the system. if there are files on it that are clean, you can first copy those to the hard drive and make a new cd.

hi how do i delete the nfts partition to put a fts which is on win98se.

im tried it before and when i got to the bit that says setup

a notice came up saying this cant be setup in dos.and i was told that is because im changing

back from nfts to fts.

and that the drive needs to be wiped to clear it from nfts.

and reset it to fts.

im new at this if it was from 98se to xp i can handle that but from xp to 98se is another ball game

marty
