FAO. All Windows Users B4 u say this is too important for the Tecky Forum If anyone was experiencing their computer shutting down last night, it was part of a mass MS Windows attack, some RPC exploit, anyway get the patch here Patch Download And get urself a firewall dammit, saved me
Which fucking XP are we all running? I'm on home edition which came with the PC but is that likely to be 32 bit or 64 bit??
13 year old american shits who think they're Neo with nowt else better to do... they should go out side and get some real friends.
I don't have a problem with malware authors. If people actually bothered patching their pcs then they could not break in to your pcs, if you leave it wide open people are gonna do it. I get more pissed off at the people who don't patch their pcs, their lazyness allows the malware peeps fuck up the Internet which effects people that make their living from it.
In addition I hate what the internet has become in the past 3-4 years. It was originally a cool place for information seeking, dos gaming and real bbs, now its all commercial, its came to the point where I have to scan every app I download for spyware before I install it.
cheers for tht m8 - iv only jst got my comp a month ago and i was filling my pants when it kept shuttin down! downloadin it now and jst bought Norton internet security!!
i know it's not an ideal world, but people should be putting their talents to more useful stuff, it still pisses me off. i suppose there's always going to be the criminal element around to exploit flaws in the system. malicious hacking is just pointless.
