ChatRelayBot (Bots)
ChatRelayBot // BotstengelOct 17, 2004, 9:20pm
Did install ChatRelayBot few days ago, and did full scan of my disks today
with my Spyware Doctor 2.1 ( pctools.com ), and it says ChatRelayBot file newconf.exe have: Backdoor.Irc.Flood. have to say i didn't like that. -- Tengel www.3D-Nordic.com tony mOct 17, 2004, 10:01pm
If you had the decency to privately contact me about the issue, then I would have investigated it for you.
Points I would like to make before I investigate this completely: * Remember that another spyware tool also found problems with the ChatRelayBot installer in July. * Neither ChatRelayBot 2.1 nor 3.0 contain any IRC code. * The "newconf.exe" program is a simple utility which generates a basic configuration file to get new users started with the CRB. If requested, its source will be published. I don't like it either, especially since you gave me no chance to look at this before notifying the public. [View Quote] themaskOct 17, 2004, 10:22pm
You should be only using Adaware and Spybot Search and Destroy for your
spyware needs; and HiJackThis for some cases. Other software are wannbes/stolen databases so i've heard. -- Signed, TheMask :: Owner of Delusional-Minds Hosting :: [View Quote] strike rapierOct 17, 2004, 10:40pm
Its one of those if you expect to release public software, expect to get
slaughtered publicly (I do often) - MR the j0k3r ssOct 17, 2004, 10:56pm
a few simple things , rename your classes etc.... anti virus for exmaple
will say your software is a trojan if you use the word in one of the classes , its often something small that it find suspicious for no reaoson , also , send the exe + source to the anti virus company to prove its clean . they respond almost always . |
