He told you the same thing, I told you the same thing, and Aardie told
you the same thing. Is there a trust issue here?

Nope. A slimy trolling innuendo thing.

I don't want to fall out with folk about this, but *please read here*.

http://mobile.eweek.com/c/a/Security...-Users-114208/

To *GET* the text file, one *has* to visit a URL.

"Almost half of Internet users believe it is necessary to actually do
something on a rogue Website to be infected, when many attacks can
trigger drive-by downloads just by loading the page."

If nobody ever *checks* the Hosts file *URL* to *ensure* that a visitor
has not inadvertently triggered an *unseen* download in addition to the
text file, users *may never know they have been hit*.

Exactly the same thing applies in visiting Annexcafe or Aumha. If one's
AV is not triggered, folk will be unlikely ever to know their machines
are infected.

I'm happy to discuss further.

Dave.

Or use the command line 'wget' in a sandbox, for the paranoid.

LOL. I use wget all the time, along with urpmi and apt-get. All command-
line driven. I could use GUI applications, but I find the CLI faster and
more convenient. Nothing to do with security.

I use it daily. Great for malware download scripting and I can use *any* User-Agent.

Core component of my Multi-AV.

I'm using "Wget 1.12-2504 built on mingw32."

Originally there were problems on the Windows builds and that's why the version still has
the "2504" build in its versioning.
