No dumbass , if you'd read the whole thread you'd know the symbol indicates that the keyboard light is off . The "whole thread" isn't in the group I'm reading this from, Dumbass. Would you like to buy some pictures of your wife rubbing one out, straight from her webcam? Apparently, she's a "lefty". LOL! Oh , I see . You're one of those who are too stupid to figure out how to configure a newsgroup feed and use a real news client instead of a web interface . You can **** off too . You're obviously too stupid to read headers, or you'd know I'm not posting through a web-based interface. No wonder the Kernel crossposted you to AUK so that we might be entertained by you. And what are you talking about as regards my wife ? You'd have to be a lot smarter than you apparently are to hack her webcam . I thought it was pretty clear. She uses her left hand to pleasure herself. Ask me how I know... -- Snag Just shows how little you know . My wife is neither left handed nor does she have ro resort to masturbation as do all the women you have known . If you were man enough ... Now run along little troll , I'm done wirh you . I'LL tell you when you're done. I noticed you didn't have anything to say about the fact you can't read headers to tell when someone's using a news client instead of a web-based interface, NooB... Damn, you almost had the leash on him. He'll be back. -- Checkmate, Royal Order of the DoW #1, and Official Ko0K Wrangler AUK Hammer of Thor award, Feb. 2012 (Pre-Burnore) Destroyer of the AUK Ko0k Vote (Post-Burnore) Originator of the "Dance for me" (tm) lame Copyright © 2016 all rights reserved |

This desktop doesn't have a webcam . The wife's laptop does , but it's disabled . ...and there is spyware that can re-enable it! Said spyware would have to get past several layers of malware , spyware , and virus protection on the computer . You're still a jackhole . The get past several layers thing sounds like you have a very false sense of security afforded to you by the programs you use. It takes very little effort/skill to modify already existing source code to create something that would slip past your resident defenses. It takes a bit more skill/more effort to write something from scratch to do the same thing... Your antimalware applications have one thing in common aside from their heuristics abilities; they rely on signatures. Which means, to put it bluntly, they have to already know the malware exists before they're actually able to detect/possibly reverse unwanted changes it may make to your system. Heuristics may be able to detect specific changes and alert you to that, assuming the malware in question doesn't have self preservation routines that involve disabling your antimalware applications in some way. If you're using Malwarebytes Antimalware for example, the malware has several options to evade it and/or disable it, if it so desires. Upto and including (I kid you not) reconfiguring the software to target legitimate things and ignore the malware itself. Presently, that particular antimalware application doesn't take it's own security seriously as far as unwanted changes to it's own configuration and or executables. Sadly, the malware sample doesn't actually have to modify any files on disk to get around the protections afforded by that particular program. It can patch in memory instead and achieve the same results, slightly easier (from the point of view of accessing configuration data/malware definitions) than it can by patching the files on disk. I do not expect this vulnerability to last for too much longer, however. At some point, Malwarebytes Corporation will do a better job of protecting their own program against unwanted modifications to either it's configuration file(s) and/or the program itself. My apologies in advance if you already knew about these issues. -- MID: Hmmm. I most certainly don't understand how I can access a copy of a zip file but then not be able to unzip it so I can watch it. That seems VERY clever! http://al.howardknight.net/msgid.cgi?ID=145716711400 |
