Is it going to be your own time and are you going to pay the lawyers for this? You know, some people don't have time to go to court, because they need to feed their families.

Slashdot sucks. Go away.

A single scan isn't enough and you should scan your computers with multiple competitive scanners simultaneously. We need something stronger that can protect against many kinds of holes. Until recently, I've been quite satisfied with ESET's NOD32 and I had even considered purchasing a couple of licenses for home use, but their anti-trojan team seems to have taken a long break. Then, I realized: antivirus products protect well against viruses that look for holes in the software, not against trojans that look for holes in the brain of the computer user. Because everything is getting very social on the Internet, malware writers also focus on social patterns. Antivirus writers should also get with the times and they could start writing their own patches for Microsoft Windows and release them in their product. You guys could make it really big, now that Microsoft fucked up with WGA and everybody knows that patching Windows XP is a disaster if you have sensitive software installed. Yes, you would be doing Microsoft's work, but you would be getting paid for it, and I don't see any harm in that.

Good luck!

I would like to congratulate the writers of that malware. I would also like to honestly congratulate you for finding the way to removing it in 26 hours!

"Deceptive name" is even better, but... hey, it got them on Slashdot!

'nuff said, my balance is very important and I'm sure it is also important to many others.

Here's another thought: what if twitter.com gets hacked? I'm sure there's lots of other juicy stuff there, but why would anyone encourage you to post your financial details on a 3rd party server? Whoever had this idea should be shot and then hanged alive as an example for other "bright" marketers.

Yes. Maybe you're not worried if someone finds out the details of your bank accounts, but I am!

This sounds to me like "another hole in the wall".

I guess IE6 is THAT unstable. Thanks :)

I'm a Firefox / Chrome fan and I just installed the Google Chrome Frame to see how it behaves. I installed Windows XP SP2 less than 24 hours ago and since then I've only installed my drivers, Firefox and the Google Chrome Frame; I went to a couple of innocent websites with IE6 and they both crashed the browser.

PS: Web developer here - Yes, IE6 sucks but it is not THAT unstable.

The title of the original article says that these exoskeletons may soon become like bicycles. I doubt that and I'm sure that most governments will outlaw them. Whoever wears them could pose a serious threat to the people around him/her and why would anyone wear one for show if not for work (like construction) or fighting (which is illegal) ?

Well, someone finally someone is doing something about it. I can't even remember how many hacked computers I got my hands on and I could clearly see the spam bots / irc bots processes, who controls them, how they are controlled, etc, but nobody would help me bring down the whole network. I've sent countless emails to companies who had their computer hacked, their ISPs and about 90% of them got replies from postmaster@ and the other 10% didn't get any reply. I sent logs and all the information they needed to track down the "mastermind" behind the bots but nothing ever happened.

DON'T do it, seriously, I hate having the tabs on the titlebar. If they go with the tabs on top and no titlebar, I'll switch to Opera.

Do you have anything at all to sustain that statement?
