just to be safe

Nayruu · 04-29-2006, 03:48 PM

well ive read about people around here getting their accounts stolen and such, and ive also read about the viruses people have been finding. i have not been to any other websites besides gunzfactor for about a month now... yet i have found several keyloggers on my computer that i... took care of. im just warning you guys to scan your computers to be safe. use at least 3 different programs to scan because no 1 program will catch them all..

=] keep on your toes...

I use a laptop for this forum and my desktop computer for GunZ so no worries

Thanks for the advice!

laptop keys a shorter so it's easier to press them
and once you connect a hybrid mouse it hink, it works better than computer
anyway, it's impossible to hack me personally

are you saying just by going to GZF you are getting keylogs?
Do you even know how they work?
When you open up a site,keylogs do NOT just go into your comp.
You have to dl a file and run.
That is possibly the only way to get a keylog.
It seems like you ARE NOT telling the whole side of the story

well im not sure exactly how they work lol.. but im pretty sure you could get them by simply opening a webpage. maybe im confusing it with something similiar? i dunno but i had them, and ive only been here.. whether or not you believe me is your risk.

Yeah. I had a couple of adwares. I disabled them but I can't disable 1 virus. [or w.e its called] name is svchost.exe I cant disable it, and If i delete one of its affiliated files keeps comming back.

o damn dont delete that... thats not a virus -____- thats part of windows

^^
svchost.exe isn't a virus. >.<
And you disable it by going into
Start Menu - Run - services.msc

Then disabling the service that has svchost.exe in it. (But don't, because it's NOT a virus)
You double click on it, and it gives you the path to executable.

Thanks to disabling unneeded services, I can play with only 10 running processes. ^_^

No you can't.
There is no possible way to get a keylog by going into a website.
It must be either an .exe file or a uploaded place.
