I'm in total agreement with only using plain text emails. Why open yourself up to further vectors and unnecessary risk. Nothing new though, the...
Oops, sorry - those permissions are only available in XP Pro.
R. Click on file and select properties > Security tab and remove execute priviledges. IMHO 98SE machines shouldn't be connected to public...
Besides ftp.exe, tftp.exe is another that's often used by malware to download further payloads. However, there's a problem with simply...
Hopefully google servers can withstand the DDoS attacks :thumb:
One of those was my mirror too. We also suffered a massive DDoS attack against gmer so have had to take it down permanently. Sorry :-\
1) Depends on what you want to achieve 2) If they're written properly. Not all are though. 3) Well, in my experience this affords little...
Same here - Linux on my main desktop used for all email/web browsing, plus my servers. No need for any AV until the malware writing scumbags start...
I think it depends on your definition of "in the wild". I'm not aware of ANY AV program that reliably detects ALL samples that are circulating...
Regardless of the technical aspects, I would actually dispute his patent application on the basis of proir art - much of its "benefits" sounds...
Heck, it would be worth £10 just to frame it and stick it on the wall to cheer you up on all the bad days ;D
I disagree with a lot of this. Take a rather well known malware distribution network (at least to the AVs) like dollar revenue - these guys are...
Absolutely Tony. What concerns me most is when you combine a zero-day exploit on a perfectly legitimate, but hacked website - then combine that...
Of course it's all about economies of scale so the malware writers will always target the OS that has 95% market share. All OSes have their...
In answer to your original question... "Where does it stop?", well for me it stopped with ditching Windows completely. I use Linux exclusively for...
I don't know - but given it's past, I'd just steer clear of it as there's plenty of very good totally legit products that do free or trial...

Storing and checking checksum in the alternate data stream (ADS), maybe.
The free version of ewido is quite effective at detecting trojans, and will compliment many a AV package. Something like BitDefender Free edition...
I'm betting that evaluation version never materializes... Time to put up or move on ;)
Another vote for BitDefender or F-Prot if you need an AV. Simply because, relative to Windows, you're very unlikely to pick up a linux virus,...
Yes, I run KAV 5/6 myself. I'd love to have KAV at work, but their pricing for a 25 licence pack is more expensive for 1 year than AVG was for...
Hi Blackcat, Do you know if it has POP3 scanning for Outlook? Price looks good though. I'm assuming it doesn't include much adware/spyware...
Hi Folks, Our corporate AV licence is due to expire this summer and I'm in the market for a replacement and need 25-30 licences. The previous...
These Zlob variants are getting annoying - new variants every 24 hours. You know the URLs, so why not automate collection with a simple wget...
