Dear LW Guys Is the link provided by diablo32 to a real copy of LW Pro or something else masquerading as LW Pro? UK Bob PS. An attempted attack was made on PC less than 2 minutes after I looked at that website diablo32 link lead to. I wonder if the visit and the attack are related. |
did u downloade the limewire pro or just visited the link?What exactly do u mean by attack?please specify coz i downloaded it from this link and works fine for me. |
Hi diablo32 The attack: I clicked on the link and looked at the page, it seemed strange that someone else was offering LW Pro for free when it costs $18.88 from Limewire.com. Anyway, I closed the page and started write a reply to your post when Nortons warned me that someone was trying to access my PC through a port commonly used by a Trojan. At a guess, I was on the web page long enough for my IP address to be captured and long enough for an auto attack to be launched. If I did not have my (Norton) firewall I would have been infected with something. Now, I could be blaming this web page unfairly and it is possible that I could have been attacked by someone monitoring this forum or an autobot or worm, at this stage I just don't know. Note, I did not download anything or action anything that could lead to a download. UK Bob PS. Next time, if there is a next time, I'll trace the attack. |

no matter how long u stay on that web page the only ones who can capture ur ip will be admins at filefront.com which is one the worlds biggest sites for file sharing and uploading.And i cant see any reason why they would be so interested to attack ur system. The only thing i can think of is perhaps u got infected by some virus earlier which could be connecting to internet at that moment. |

It is more than likely that I was attacked by a bot or a worm. It only goes to show that everyone surfing the internet should have at least a firewall and anti-virus protection. UK Bob |
