Here is some history on this psycho virus writer/virus passer/women
hating queer p.o.s.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++
Nowhere is the temperment of this sociopath shown more clearly
than here. He is utterly without conscience or empathy. Below,
since his Web page of viruses for download is temporarily down,
He offers to email viruses to anyone who asks for them.
- ------------
The evil one spake below:
"Offering them (viruses)on a www page is not irresponsible, he
says in one of the posts below."
"That's not my problem nor concern....what the people who
download them decides to do with them is there business."
"...identify yourself as one who wants the (virus) zip files,
and I will be happy to send them."
"It's like being a little god, who see his creatures spreading
all over the world."
"Those of you who think my viruses suck, Oh well. I really don't
care that you think. Those of you who think i'm an a**hole,
Good. I don't care who or how many scum sucking lamers i infect.
I'm doing the world a favor removing dipsh*ts like that."
- ------------
It's all below. No attribution errors. No Lies. No taking out of
context. No "character assassination". (That isn't needed. His own
words accomplish that beyond what I could think up.)
It is amazing how many educated and smart people try arguing
with this looney tunes sociopath. He has an extreme case of
diarrhea of the mouth. An endless stream of illogical,
nonsensical **** spews from him, illustrating his sick dementia.
It seems beyond the ken of ordinary sane persons to realize the
evil inside this person which twists every truth 180 degrees
from its true polarity. No wonder he snickers and sneers at
them. They are incredibly naive.

I'm sure you don't want me to post my FULL results of testing your

Actually, as I've stated before, I do. So, post the results of
your testing here and on your www page. I will use the
information to further improve the krile family. I have an idea
as to how krile may have been nabbed, and thats only because
krile once it infected md5.exe would return to infect your
checker again. However, rest assured, this has been corrected.
Now, again, please post your results.

By all means. However, a simple YES doesn't tell me the details,
of which I have asked you three times now to provide. So,
provide them.

You mean -your- test didn't demonstrate this? That would seem
to indicate that your test was as useless as we suspected.
That's what matters: no-one is interested in helping you with

Rick. I'm not trying nor interested in convincing anyone of
anything, I'm certainly not a Jehovas Witness. <G> As for being
an evil genius, Nah.. I don't see it that way. I choose to write
viruses, and I will continue to write them. If you don't like
this, There isn't really too much you can do about it.
As for growing up, I have been relatively friendly throughout
this newsgroup, Why start with personal statements now?

My test? When did I conduct any test? as for helping me, it's
not really a persons option. Once they become infected, they are
beta-testing, whether they wanted too or not. That's how it
works.
I'm not doren, so I'm not interested in promoting a shareware
virus to test the installation of antivirus programs.
I'd much rather develop viruses which don't alarm the user to
there presence at first.

On reflection: in that case as it would help you with your virus
writing, I withdraw my offer to post the results.
As I stated before I find it morally unacceptable to support
virus writers, or in any way help them to make the virus problem
worse than it is.
I now see that me posting a detailed review of your viruses
would be beneficial to you and help you write new viruses, so I
withdraw my offer.
Call me old fashioned, but I prefer not to help someone break
the law.

Three times? OK, I'll reply three times, NO, NO and thrice NO.
I think it is sufficient to say that my product detects the
changes made to files by your viruses. I won't help you any
further.
Maybe you should take the advice of your virus writing peers and
stop writing viruses?

There's nothing political about my motivations, they are purely
personal, nothing more, nothing less.
I try to treat people in the way I expect to be treated. As you
know I try to help people here, I'm not really cut out for
marketing as I can't bend the truth convincingly. ;-)
I have to really believe in a product, have documented
(independant) proof that it does what it says, or most often, I
take it and test it to death. Maybe that's why I do so much beta
testing, av, other software and hardware. I also have a nasty
habit of finding bugs in products, aome manufacturers like this
as I can help them improve their products, others take it as a
personal attack (which it's not).
>Since I don't have any of those sort of restrictions, I'll have

That's why I have now withdrawn my offer, as I don't and won't
help virus writers to improve their creations. Again, this is
not politics, I personally feel that writing viruses is stupid
and childish, it's a shame that they don't channel their
'talents' into more useful outlets.

I think that's exactly what he thinks he is doing. The samples I
saw posed no challenges for ChekMate, or indeed most generic
systems that monitor file modifications (and that cry wolf when
the fingerprint or CRC database files are deleted). No
'patching' was required, no 'hand-holding' was needed for the
modifications that the viruses made to be detected. Hell, it
doesn't even have directory stealth or is even memory resident!
Thanks for your support, or am I taking things for granted? ;-)

Pity. You were so gung hoe about it before. What changed your mind?

The problem as you put it, is not as bad as people like yourself
make it out to be. You seem to be forgetting something. If
people like my self didn't code these things, there would be no
market for your program nor anyone elses relating to virus
discovery. Are you sure AV people want to not make money? those
www servers aren't cheap, nor are there support staff.
>I now see that me posting a detailed review of your viruses would be

I will write new viruses anyway. and I'll happily spend more time
with your
program. So that even if your not willing to provide details, I'll
have
them eventually.
>Call me old fashioned, but I prefer not to help someone break the
>law.
Where I reside, it's not illegal for me to write them.
>Sorry won't do as this would help you to write viruses.
again, I'm going to continue writing anyway. This stance of
yours doesn't help anyone avoid them.
>I think it is sufficient to say that my product detects the

>further.
Yes, I'm sure it does. Your product shells to a 3rd party
utility for verification. Your programs internal check method
however will not report modification, since your file is
restored to it's original condition before it gets control.
>Maybe you should take the advice of your virus writing peers
>and stop writing viruses?
My virus writing peers? They encourage viruses, They don't
suggest quit writing. and if all virus writers did stop writing,
You wouldn't have a business. Nor would most AV

Are you claiming your programs self check is better then DSAV,
fprot, AVP? And no, its not memory resident. nor does it employ
directory stealth, of course, this is all explained in the
documentation file which comes with the binary. The only reason
KRiLE didn't get past your self check is because you choose to
shell to another application, which krile then immediatly
infects your file. However, I've noticed you didn't bother to
mention your program doesn't see any changes to itself before it
shells to md5.exe.

They are a hobby of mine. I've always been fascinated with self
replicating code. Not destructive code mind you, Just code which
replicates on it's own, and still allows it's host to function.

Define releasing. Offering them on a www page is not
irresponsible. The zip files contain a documentation file, and
several other identifiers, no effort is made to decieve the

AVP detects and cleans krile varient 1c (I've tested this for

at the time, it didn't. As for DSAV, I heard they are coming out
with a driver (likely to be detection only) for krile 1e (v1)

I forgot to answer your second question. The page is offline,
due to server upgrading. However, if you don't feel like waiting
that long for them. You do have the option of going on IRC
(undernet) and joining #virus. Simply identify yourself as one
who wants the zip files, and I will be happy to send them.

"We don't want to destruct anything."(!)
Once you release your darling little creatures into the world,
they cause damage in many ways.
They hang computers, damage files, and at the very least tie up
system resources.
They force corporations to spend substantial sums of money for
anti-virus software and additional staffing to prevent virus
attacks on their computer systems, and even more in terms of
lost productivity and virus cleanup should their efforts fail.
And they force John Q Public to spend money on AV software -
money which could better be used for some other purpose.
If you were so concerned about not "destructing" anything, you
wouldn't have released the viruses into the wild in the first
place. Your attitude is very selfish - you revel in being little
"gods" watching your creatures proliferate without any concern
for the consequences to others.
May God have mercy on your souls.

Now why would I want to deliberatly send them to AV? They can
get them from infected users, or users who wish to send them
samples, They certainly don't need my help.

That's not my problem nor concern. I merely offer them on a www

Perhaps if he actually existed that statement might have some

Spanska is quiet able to answer for him self. I chose to respond

What other people choose to do with those viruses is there
business, Not mine. I'm only offering them for people who are
interested in such things (like myself).

George, I made no attempt to justify anything. The market would
dry up without a need for it. I and many others provide that
market's need, Not on purpose, it just happens that way. We code
the creatures, and others make money removing them.
assbackwards, but that's how it works.

Since I'm not interested in making this planets ecosystem

George, If we all stopped. There would be no new viruses to add
to the market. the available viruses would die off with nothing
to replace them. In that case, ones the market dries up, there
would be no further profit for Antiviral software. Who needs it
if viruses cease to exist?

That's not my job George. I'm not an Antivirus person. I do not
get paid for "technical support" Antivirus people do, Let them
deal with it.

George, I'm not violating ANY laws by offering them on a www
page or an anon ftp server. I make no attempt to hide the fact
that what the user is downloading is a virus, and is potentially
harmful.

See my reply above George. It wouldn't take years. Don't you
have any faith in the AV products and people?

How do you guarantee that the docs and identifiers are included
when passed on to another by someone who obtained it from you?
How do you prevent someone from getting it and using it
maliciously?
The point is that with viruses, once they've escaped, they're
"out there" and there is no way to guarantee that all copies are
destroyed. Hence it's fine to write a virus and keep it
quarantined on your machine, but not to allow ANYONE else to
have it, since they might not maintain the quarantine.
But then again, of course you knew that already.

I know you didn't mean anything sinister or nefarious. I post
and behave the same as I do in any other groups, even on the
alt.pets.arachnid usenet group which has nothing to do with
computers or viruses.
As ChekWARE is my company, I set the standards I work to ;-)
