THE DEVIL INSIDE YOUr system
DjEgg said it all " This is no paranoid bullshit" I have other posts that cover this problem so go read'em after you leave here
Well its been a while, little has happened, much has changed. If you are searching for a reason for corrupt files, or files that have been broken into a noise that defies description this may or may not be the cause, IT was however the cause of my troubles. I started this thread to try to figure this out, and figure we did (thank you DjEgg). I was running a Norton's corprate virus(NCV) and a Nortons Personal firewall (NPF). (I don't recommend the NPF but the NCV rocks! BUT NVC by it's self isn't enough. What was acutally going on were three sub seven trojan ops in my system, oddly Mp3's were their only objective. Operative #1 Tamari Nugin Jang, In Soul Korea, Op #2 Verochka Raatko, St Petersburg Russia. These first two were using computers on the fedral university networks where they were students. #3 was a total idiot and was doing this from his home computer where Symantics security hack tracer at <http://security.symantec.com/ssc/vr...MQCKMRKRFPECDME> tracked him to. op #3 Rosnvett Olmstadt, Hamburg Germany. I got addresses, names, even a phone number for Rosnvett. I love the WHOIS command. I didn't call,but it was tempting. I did file full complaints to all three IP's and heard back from them. The investigation is still going.
Now, to keep this from happening again we now run everything through a updated firewall, a network manager and a router this enables totalatarian control over my system and full stealth capabilities, so much for gigo (garbage in garbage out) I HIGHLY RECOMEND that if you are playing with FTP's MP3's or any file sharing programs you #1 Go get Spyware blaster, #2 Get a top notch viral scanner with realtime capabilities, a good firewall, and a router or a hardware firewall router you can get one for about $500.00..yes it's worth it when you concider the time and money it costs you to fix problems that were preventable.
If you get stuck come to the forums and find some one like DjEgg, they are ALOT of help.
ps I have NO problems with ANY Mp3 or any music files since I put this administration in force.
