undergroundfreakzforlife may have a piece of spyware

***Cycleon*** · 02-04-2004, 10:19 PM

can someone who is literate in computers confirm this for me - during signup at this site it attempts to download a piece of spyware onto your computer.

I kept wondering why MKRD was pushing his board after being repeatedly asked not to and I am now guessing this is why - those who have signed up there please take care.

As all of you know AR is brothers with many boards and we welcome others to come from or check out other places but this smells somehow and I do want ot protect our members.

Spywizard...You wanna do the honors?

**spywizard** · 02-04-2004, 10:22 PM

I am a memeber there.. i remember when i signed up.. it does have a piece that tried to install.. but i denied it..

and i just ran a scan on my computer... it isn't there..

It is possible.. try spysweeper software... www.cnet.com free download..

it's alittle different than adaware... works a little better..

You should change your security settings on your browser to medium or high.. that will stop alot of the issues..

**Agent Smith** · 02-05-2004, 06:06 AM

lads download spybot http://www.safer-networking.org/ and run it every 3-4 days, that will clean your computer up of spyware.

peace

**Jack87** · 02-05-2004, 07:17 AM

This is very disturbing...

I thought at first he sounded like a good bro...

He is on a few other boards I spend alot of time on...

Cycleon what else do you know about this bro???

He is claiming on one board to be well known by some in the game...

I hate this spwware **** and hate all ****ing hacking ****s...

Just had a problem on my girls PC and then my PC a few days later...

***50%Natural*** · 02-05-2004, 07:29 AM

hey, thanks for the heads up.
Also, I don't recall any spyware trying to download but I run windows washer every couple of days along with the spybot software and clean the cookies and junk up.

**slamd097** · 02-05-2004, 07:58 AM

wait..stop...And I mean STOP!! switch to spybot...and get the updates..best program out there. It also has the option to block the ads from down loading..I use it on all of my servers, and everyones computer here at work to keep them up and running..the idoits I work woth download so much crap it is unbelievable..

**spywizard** · 02-05-2004, 08:09 AM

Yes.... the reason it says that is that it will and can write to your systems files, but only after you do the scan.. and it runs at start up if you choose......

**monster.** · 02-05-2004, 11:03 AM

Thats spysweeper worked awesome, I had so much adware on my computer it was silly.. It was almost like cleaning your ears with a Q-tip, and you almost get that ticklish clean feeling you know?

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

**BOUNCER** · 02-05-2004, 12:49 PM

lol, nah shaking from ephedrine!.. ba$tard

**Jack87** · 02-05-2004, 01:20 PM

Cycleon I posted this info on Freakz and Strongs VIP board...

This needs to go out to everyone... Only a few reasons to

have that **** software loaded on a PC and all reasons are

bad news...

***Cycleon*** · 02-05-2004, 03:18 PM

Yeah - really concerns me because I have no idea what he would want to do that for - password sniffer possibly? track people that leave his site? I am just hoping that it isnt anything law related.

**hoss827** · 02-05-2004, 03:19 PM

Me too bro...Good job once again. I dont know why anyone would want some passwords :/

**bmf2** · 02-05-2004, 03:54 PM

Very interesting indeed!!!.......

**Elliot** · 02-05-2004, 05:25 PM

i doubt its law related.. he probobly wanted to make some money and singed up fro some sponsors.. still slimy and unforgivable..

**Jack87** · 02-05-2004, 05:32 PM

Are you serious Hoss???

I can think of a bunch of reasons to have access to someone's
computer and have all their passwords... Just think about it bro...

But I don't operate that way, so it's not for me...

**sin** · 02-05-2004, 07:39 PM

i was curious why i got a pm from that guy, now i have a better idea. thanks for looking out cyc.

**ItalianMuscle** · 02-05-2004, 07:51 PM

interestinng.. Thanks Cycleon..

**Yung Wun** · 02-07-2004, 10:56 AM

u guys say there spyware and yet all of u D/L the anti spyware program and find nothing on the underground....during signup there is absoultely no downloading of any piece of spyware. theres absoultely no truth in these rumors

***Cycleon*** · 02-07-2004, 04:15 PM

Actually, I found out exactly what it is:

Vendor:Tracking Cookie
Category: Miner
Object Type:File
Size:103 Bytes
Location:c:\...\owner\cookies\owner@linksynergy[1].txt
Last Activity:2-7-2004 1:22:37 AM

Basically this is a spyware cookie - now this type seems to be used mostly by advertisers so they can track where you go on the web and more importantly how often you return to their site but it can do a lot of things to grab identifying info if you configure it that way. Maybe MRKD is using it only to try to drum up people to go to his site - but it is pretty crummy not to tell people - it could be used more harmfully but I would like to think it probably isnt.

Yung Wun - you are a good fellow from any experience Ihave ever had with you or heard of you and there are supposed to be some other good people on that board - If I were you i would get ahold of MKRD and shut him up before he ruins all of your reputations - since we canned him here I have had 3 admins from other boards PM me telling me that they booted him as well for other reasons - i dont know why and I dont care really -but there is something about the fellow that needs help - keep him on your board but if you want someone to drum up business for your board I suggest that you keep him well away from everyone else

**Ratchet** · 02-08-2004, 12:55 AM

I just went to a different computer in my house, registered under a different name, then ran spybot and found nothing absolutely nothing. While registering it did not try to install anything. Has anyone really found anything here.

Cycleon how do you link

Location:c:\...\owner\cookies\owner@linksynergy[1].txt

to undergroundfreakzforlife ?

Thanks
