First all of is you use a "TROJAN" program it doesnt make you a hacker. People do not need to rely on AV software to protect. AV software only protects against KNOWN trojans and etc. Just download safe. If the download looks weird, small in size, only one person has it to offer, etc its probably a "TROJAN".

They could be on your systems right now and you wouldn’t even know it. They could be looking thru your directories and files, reading your financial information, getting your credit card info, reading your emails and your documents or setting your system up to be a host for a major attack against a big corporation or worst. Did you know they could even be watching you while you are at your computer? Do you have a web cam? Just image this for a second. |
Now you're just spreading FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt). Its really unnecessary. You making out like its a sophiscated process and it takes a mastermind to operate a "TROJAN". Stupid 13 year kids just use them b/c they think they're "hackers" b/c of people like you.

A hacker is in your system and your just casually going about your business and he turns on your web. Who do you think he will see? YOU! |
You really need to stop watching the movie "HACKERS". I know Angeline Jolie is hot but the story line is not real!

Why am I writing this note? Well I just spent 3 days removing the SUBSEVEN Trojan otherwise known as BACKDOOR-g22 and my system is also infected with the PORNDIAL5 Trojan. |
Took you 3 whole days? All you have to do is search the web for a removal tool or docs.

I got my infected .ZIP file from the Gnutella network in just under a week of trying the service. |
Downloading porn file sizes @ 323KB is not a smart thing to do.
We all know that now....

I neglected to install a good Trojan scanner on my win2k machine and by opening this .zip file infected my entire system. I was lucky, I caught the infection before anyone could hack my system but some of you out there may not be so luck .You need to get yourselves a good Trojan scanner capable of detecting Trojans before some hacker gets you. While Mcafee is a virus scanner IT IS NOT a Trojan scanner and may or may not detect the presence of a Trojan on you computer. So don’t think your safe by using a Norton or Mcafee. |
Also use a firewall its that simple or just not use shitty Windows and you wont have this problem at all. :]

PORNDIAL5 -: This Trojan is a scary one in that if your using a modem to dial into the Gnutella network and you have this Trojan on you computer your in for a huge telephone bill and I mean huge. Mcafee will detect this one but its relatively new and nobody knows much about it. All they know is that it calls 900 numbers and racks up a huge phone bill. If you have a modem connection your in danger but if your using DSL/CABLE your relatively safe. I also have this one on my system and still have one instance of it to remove. |
I think we get it "PORN" "DIAL"......

I don’t download porn and I don’t visit porn sites and I have not found the zip file that this Trojan could have come from yet but I suspect I got it from somewhere on gnutella. |
Everyone downloads porn and you SUSPECT you d/led it fron the gnutella network. You probably trying to d/l gay porn off some warez site.

With that said I am concerned with the infections on the Gnutella network and feel that if all of us just take
A few precautions we can stop the spread of Trojans and hackers from getting into our systems. |
Yeah its called not downloading small files and executing them. Again it does not make you a hacker if you use a "TROJAN".
Quote:
If you find an infected file KILL IT! |
I hope you mean DELETE the file off of your system.
Quote:
Don’t offer if for download! |
WOW, what a wonderful idea!
Thats not scary, thats just putting fear into non-knowning people's minds. Sub7 is a gay but fun trojan. Its easy to remove.

This has helped me realize there are still a lot of ignorant people out there on the net that do not have or use common sense. You must remember computers are only has smart as the user.
