When SSS told me how much of a dick this guy I'm about to tell you
about is I didn't belive him. His name will be kept, because if we
mention it he'll get all souped and think he's public enemy number
one in the virus community.
Who he is, is the author of a very sad anti-virus program and virus
scanner called FLU-SHOT and VIR-X, respectivly. What the man is,
is a sad case who wallows in the shadow of John McAffe and curses
to his bitter self why he is not a popular anti-virus author. The
reason is simple. His product sucks. Well lets put it this way,
his self proclaimed 'great' scanner fails to detect over 60% of all
viruses out there. On top of that, it was very sinple for a
person, who shall remain nameless, to infect his virus scanner, and
send out trojan copies all over the USA. The product, FLU-SHOT, is
the most annoying, false-alarm causing, piece of trash on the
market. Nuff said on the subject.
What makes us to pissed at said asshole? Well, take into mind the
following, from the documentation of FLU-SHOT.
The Challenge to the Worm
=========================
When I first released a program to try to thwart their demented
little efforts, I published this letter in the archive (still in
the FLU_SHOT+ archive of which this is a part of). What I say in
it still holds:
As for the designer of the virus program: most
likely an impotent adolescent, incapable of
normal social relationships, and attempting to
prove their own worth to themselves through
these type of terrorist attacks.
Never succeeding in that task (or in any
other), since they have no worth, they will one
day take a look at themselves and what they've
done in their past, and kill themselves in
disgust. This is a Good Thing, since it saves
the taxpayers' money which normally would be
wasted on therapy and treatment of this
miscreant.
If they *really* want a challenge, they'll try
to destroy *my* hard disk on my BBS, instead of
the disk of some innocent person. I challenge
them to upload a virus or other Trojan horse to
my BBS that I can't disarm. It is doubtful the
challenge will be taken: the profile of such a
person prohibits them from attacking those who
can fight back. Alas, having a go with this
lowlife would be amusing for the five minutes
it takes to disarm whatever they invent.
Go ahead, you good-for-nothing little
slimebucket: make *my* day!
Funny isen't it? Well Mr. Dickburg, I am not an adolesent, nor am
I impotent. I lead quite a healty social life, and have no sucidal
urges. What I am is a person who (mabey because of some deep down
psycological disorder) finds joy in seeing some geeked out,
computer nerds system go down the drain in a flash.
Oh yes there are others like me out there, many others. It (virus
writing) is a joke. It is done for a good laugh, to see dickheads
like you lose time and money. So my friend, at this time I start
an active campain after you ass.
Anyone out there who wants to make some dicks day, call this
assholes cheap BBS and lets take him down. The number is
(212)-889-6438. Trojans, Ansi-Bombs, and all Viruses are acepted.
Go to it!
