Hi,
I want to excuse myself.
The reason for this message was a little more complex. I know that many files are reported to be bad.
Here is the story:
Maybe you remember that I reported about a phishing attack and that Ralf Q. Laughed about me.
The reason was a hyperlink where the text hides the real link. I also use them for help files.
After this I tried to build a honeypot with an old win 8 on an old machine, made a backup on an usb drive with caine live cd, everything worked fine. Then I simply clicked on the virus link and made a second backup.
Nothing happened. Then i installed gdata, checked for virus, nothing. Then i clicked on the download link for a second time and the story began. I made screenshots. The virus scanner reports a buffer overflow attack, win tried to open different ports etc. But the scanner itself found nothing suspicious. I ran two Linux rescue cds, they crashed. I tried to run a third backup, the hd was no longer found. Reason, I noticed later, was a bad usb cable. I putted the hd into a better machine, some old known harmless tools were found, some fixed, at the end at least one virus scanner on cd crashed again.
Some more things happened, e.g. I deleted firefox from two hds, as this was the only interesting message.
Some minutes later I noticed a hi mum/dad message on my mobile.
After all this I read the article from an unknown dave and saw your hyperlink with a text that hided the link.
Not written by Rugxulo but another name.
And then the virus scanner showed a suspicious site. What would you have thought?

Willi

You can get the current code segment or data segment with the CSeg and
DSeg functions.
