Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....

It doesn't support your point but it does support our point that such subject matter is
way over your head and you don't comprehend the subject matter.

You're wasting your time, David. BD is so deeply entrenched in his
paranoia that he won't believe the truth of the matter.

It doesn't take even half a brain to work out that, in order to cause a
simple text file to cause any problems would take a lot of work and a
number of conscious decisions on the part of the luzer.

Not forgetting, a modicum of programming knowledge.

Why, ****? At least I know enough to know that plain text files are
nothing other than benign.

You make *FAR* too many assumptions, *Aard*****!

No assumptions here, ****.

I already know that text files are benign. Time you caught up, ****.

Trojan Tricks Victims Into Transferring Funds

*

It’s horrifying enough when a computer crook breaks into your PC, steals
your passwords and empties your bank account. Now, a new malware variant
uses a devilish scheme to trick people into voluntarily transferring
money from their accounts to a cyber thief’s account.

The German Federal Criminal Police (the “Bundeskriminalamt” or BKA for
short) recently warned consumers about a new Windows malware strain that
waits until the victim logs in to his bank account. The malware then
presents the customer with a message stating that a credit has been made
to his account by mistake, and that the account has been frozen until
the errant payment is transferred back.

When the unwitting user views his account balance, the malware modifies
the amounts displayed in his browser; it appears that he has recently
received a large transfer into his account. The victim is told to
immediately make a transfer to return the funds and unlock his account.
The malicious software presents an already filled-in online transfer
form — with the account and routing numbers for a bank account the
attacker controls.

I didn't know this was disputed? Take Jenn for example. she got hit
with a drive by download.

As it's a plain text file, it can't come with anything "hidden".
