It appears so. Thankfully, no one has reported any loss to date.

I'll let you be the judge of that.

However, I personally have *NO* doubt at all that he *does* have the
hacker skills to hurt anyone he chooses.

I don't think what RAID/Diesel says about Graham Cluely has any impact
on Graham's public profile! Graham told me he finds it hard to believe
that 'Diesel' is so obsessed after so many years and said 'Diesel' can
choose to believe what he likes. Graham also said "He's utterly
irrelevant and perhaps in need of some mental health advice. Which kinda
makes me feel sorry for him. "

I think he was joking in that last sentence!

A cyber-friend of mine has disappeared. Searching the Internet for news,
I found this item.

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/ata...&pid=177967145

I had a son the same age as Graham. Sadly Nick died when he was just 28
so Graham was a bit like an adopted son.

There are two things I'd like to do.

1. Verify that the obituary I found relates to my friend, and

2. Find out how/why he died. I strongly suspect suicide, but I can find
no evidence at all.

Can you, will you, help with either or both?

Perhaps this item will help you better understand:

Abstract

SERGRADS are selectively retained graduates of Naval Flight Training who
become flight instructors during their first tour as Naval Aviators. A
perception exists that SERGRADS have more difficulties than newly
designated pilots during subsequent training in the Fleet Replacement
Squadrons (FRS). A preliminary inquiry at the F/A-18 FRS revealed that
former SERGRADS appear to experience a higher rate of failure on their
initial carrier qualification attempt during FRS training. This study
examined the SERGRAD experience and compared their performance to
trainees from other sources. Although significant differences were found
between groups for Fleet Replacement Squadron flight grades and Training
Command composite grades, no significant differences were found between
the groups for Training Command carrier qualification grades or Fleet
Replacement Squadron carrier qualification. Thus, the data do not
support the hypothesis that SERGRADS have more problems or are poorer
aviators than F/A-18 students from other sources.

I am a former blackhat, yes. I don't recall ever denying that,

years ago. Irok is sixteen years old David...The others are even
older than that. I retired from those activities sixteen years ago.

Lots of information about you and your virus writing activity is

I've never denied that, either. Except to say that much of the
'information' available isn't accurate. Take for example, the untrue
accusations that I spread the Toadie virus via a cellphone cloning
app and that the feds were hot on my trail for it. Neither comment
made by Graham Cluley and repeated to reporters ad nausem panned out
as being truthful.

Your threat to steal money from the accounts of my friends, me and
my family has been recorded. If/when you do that, you will be

I invited you to record it for posterity, David. I've *already done*
what I told you I would do if you didn't stop. Multiple times now.
It's one thing for me to be candid with you here on usenet concerning
the things you've invited upon yourself. It's quite another to prove
anything. *smile* You seem to be neglecting to mention the reason(s)
this has happened to you, though. You weren't selected at random.

These things happened to you directly as a result of your continued
efforts to stalk not only myself, but, those you thought at some
point were related to me.

If you continue trying to stalk myself or those you think I might
know, I'll continue doing things to you in a most unpleasant manner.
It's called consequences for your actions. Are you familiar with the
terms, David?

You ARE a stalker, and, for that, you'll pay. OTH, If you want things
to come to an end, leave me alone. It's that simple.

Are you talking about THE Graham Cluley?!!!

Graham Cluley, public speaker and independent computer security analyst.

He says about himself ......

"Today, I'm my own boss. As well as being an independent blogger and
talking to the media about computer security issues, you can also hire
me to speak at your company's events or conferences. I have given talks
around the world at events such as Microsoft Future Decoded, RSA,
Infosec, Web Summit, EICAR, AVAR, ICSA, ISSA, Virus Bulletin, Ja.net,
Campus Party and the European Internet Security Forum.

I've also made many international media appearances on TV, radio and
print, including NPR, BBC, Sky, Fox, CNN, Mashable, and TechCrunch, as
well as written columns on computer security for publications such as
The Telegraph, IT Week, Computer Weekly, VNUNet and the BBC College of
Journalism."

ROFLMFAO! He was a PR mouth piece for Sophos Antivirus. Unless
somethings changed in a major way and he's gone back to school (ROFL,
right...), he's blowing smoke up your ass and anyone else who listens.
FYI: I subscribed to his newsletter sometime ago. I know where the
stories originate. I know he's copying them to his blog and commenting
about them. [g]

He didn't do technical work for Sophos, asshat. He was a PR guy. His
blog is a copy/paste job from various actual IT security sites. He
isn't doing his own research on the subjects.

"Today, I'm my own boss. As well as being an independent blogger

He's been spreading bull**** via the media for years. I don't dispute
that. He's his own boss because the AV industry doesn't really have
much use for PR guys anymore. Viruses aren't the latest thing anymore,
nobody worth a **** continues to write actual viruses. The AV scene has
trojans to look for and a ****load! of competition now. It's a dying
industry. ROFL. It's what they wanted, after all.

It's getting harder and harder to justify paying a yearly fee for an AV
license when various free versions offer the same level of protection
at the end of the day, at no cost to you. And, free licensing doesn't
support a budget for PR people. So, Cluley's out of a job... and..
what's that word he used to describe me.. Oh, that's right...

irrelevant.

Unlike cluley, I have actual technical skills so I'm still useful in
the tech industry. I'm not a PR guy. I'm a doer.
[g]

He's a better man than you, Gunga Din! ;-)

No, ROFL, he isn't either. He's like you in some aspects.

He was a lying, POS (like you ironically) PR mouth piece for Sophos
Antivirus. He'd talk **** to any reporter willing to listen. The Toadie
virus articles aren't the only ones, David... He didn't just try that
**** with me. he tried it with other VXers too. He was featured in a
virus as part of the payload for it for his behavior towards them.

If gigabyte was still around and read your posts praising cluley, she'd
be laughing her ass off and (like me) setting you straight concerning
him.

Too funny, David. Cluley shouldn't have any trouble finding me in his

If it helps, My CluleyNews folder is presently holding 299

I don't care if he's just reposting other peoples material. It's very

ROFL. He has an IP address, certainly. I might have used this network

visit his site, although I get his newsletters too. [g]

Say... just what do you think you can do with an IP address? If you
give me a good/interesting/okay, I'm curious enough, I'll provide
this networks WAN side IP address, in the clear.

Perhaps this is best answered by way of an example?

I was amazed by what CAN be determined from an IP address - AND from a
server log!

What email address did you use?

Too funny, David. Cluley shouldn't have any trouble finding me in his
user records. It's the same address I've used for years since I
published Bughunter. Why must you be so coy?

I doubt if he has ever looked carefully to see if your addy is 'on his
list'!

If it helps, My CluleyNews folder is presently holding 299
newsletters. According to my email client, I've opened four of them.
I don't care if he's just reposting other peoples material. It's very
convenient for me to have it all in one place, searchable, in the
event it has something useful for something I'm working on/dealing
with. It's a tech thing, you wouldn't understand.

I have a vague notion. :-)

Well, I unintentionally misinformed you, David. It's actually using a
very old (as in, way ancient) email address. Cluley should have no
trouble whatsoever looking it up if he so desires. I'd forgotten that
email address forwards incoming things of interest to the other
account. I made no effort to hide from him while exploring the site
and the information available. I'm reasonably sure it's why I
selected that particular email address. It sticks out like a sore
thumb.

If it helps, My CluleyNews folder is presently holding 299
newsletters. According to my email client, I've opened four of
them. I don't care if he's just reposting other peoples material.

searchable, in the event it has something useful for something
I'm working on/dealing with. It's a tech thing, you wouldn't
understand.

I have a vague notion. :-)

One of these computers primary job is to grow what I call a
knowledgebase, by pilfering things of interest it finds on other
systems presently tied into this network. In specific folder/shares
only, of course. It's not privvy to everything on all work stations.

Some 'mailboxes' if you will are accessable by that box, for the
aforementioned purpose. Btw, did you know, that for the most part,
Wine/DOSBox for linux has no trouble whatsoever running my ancient
programs/bots that help to do various things in the background? IE:
I've added an additional three machines recently, All running Linux
Mint KDE edition with those apps. My old ****, that I haven't had the
time to properly convert, don't really feel like converting to native
win32, are still able to do what they were written to do on the linux
machines. Most of this network and the way in which it does some
things was setup a long long time ago. rofl.

It'll still take some time to switch things around, and, if I swapped
out old (but still quite functional code) for possibly new code that
may/may not work on the linux machines, I'd spend a lot of time re
inventing the wheel for possibly no gain. As it seems to be right
now, I have cross platform compatability! [g]

They're running as primary host for various network activities now,
taking the place of their windows based counter parts. For network
integrity, those windows based machines are still online and
accessable, in the event one or more of the linux machines proves to
be unable to reliably step in.

Other box's on this network will have to continue to be windows based
for the time being. I haven't had the time to test some of the other
commonly used software on any linux box. If/when I'm able to confirm
the apps will continue to function as expected. IE: they not only
run, but, create the same byte for byte identical copies of the
windows counter parts. This is especially important for the purposes
of quality control. Those programs will be migrated and stress tested
on the network. Just like the three are presently undergoing.

I enjoy reading about the things you do! :-)

You never mention anything about your work as an electrician nowadays.
Are you still doing electrical work? (conversation only, not for a
file! ;-) )

I do.. Electrical work after awhile is the same old same old. It
doesn't really change that much. Drill holes, mount/install devices,
run power, connect power. Done. Troubleshooting is essentially the same
ol same ol too. Is the hot wire going hot when expected? Is the power
making it to the device? Is the return (neutral) all good? If it's a
220volt device, are both legs feeding it with the expected
voltage/amperage? Is the device getting both legs upto it's connection
points? Is neutral and ground available for the device and working?

If so, an issue exists with the device; not the electrical service.

There's always something new and interesting in the IT world though.
Somewhat so as far as devices,neat tools in electrical. But, the actual
electrical 'work' is the repeat, rinse, repeat. [g]

Thanks for that! I'm really pleased to hear that you ARE still getting

for you! :-)
