Guest Ian Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 i posted the warning for windows post to let the user community know. The FBI has already started their investigations and crackdown on the BotNet, but it is still growing. My post is not a hoax! what is happening to my system via the hack, especially the hang in send/recieve that occurs, durring the sending of documents, a word doc, and pdf take less than a minute to send out when both are attached to the same email. i can send out several pdf brocures, and it still does not take very long, but after this problem takes place, it takes up to 5 minutes or more to send two documents! There is no hard drive activity going on during this entire hang, so who knows what is getting sent out. this only happens during and after the .exe change occurs this hang is very much like BotNet type behavior and the possibilty of my system inadvertnantly sending out assistance to a DDOS attack or emailing others the glorious bot or virus i have. for brushing up on what is possible with hacks these days a good book to start with is: Symentec Press- published 2005 The Art of Computer Virus Research and Defense by Peter Szor isbn:0-321-30454-3 and realize it is already out of date and still very eye opening about things that geeksquad and fire dog will tell you are not possible.
