Nerve Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I remember when I made a batch file that let you create new admin accounts with passwords attached. I swear I wasn't going to use it at school. :devil: cool.although its only your 2nd post...and i have no av installed right now :shiftyninja: For this reason, I'm afraid I won't be testing it out. ;) Nice job though.

SatansAce Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Yeah i'm not a big poster... but there are 2 exe files in the package, both Digitally SIgned by Microsoft and the rest are scripts so you can right click, click edit and see what they do for yourself. Also thanks for showing me that virustotal site seems pretty cool...

[deXter] Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 cool.although its only your 2nd post...and i have no av installed right now :shiftyninja: http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/a187dea...514831914b19107 AntiViruses don't always help. You can't depend on the result of an AV to decide whether a file is malicious or not. If he can make an exe, he can easily make it to delete all your files or worse, encrypt them and hold them for ransom, and no AV will stop it. My point is, instead of relying on AVs, you can a) Prevent/monitor it's access to the net with a firewall b) Run it in a sandbox or a virtual machine c) In a controlled environment, monitor it with Process Monitor to observe it's behavior d) Advanced users can of course OllyDbg it :) At the least, suspicious files should be run in a limited user account or a guest account.
