I FULLY support your application.

DT is always ready and willing to give advice on these forums. Every time I have logged in he is on here. His advice...

Why not just run Malwarebytes in Windows, it's free and effective. You can also run it from a usb.

Currently on this box:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 (using now hahaha)
Ubuntu 10.10

+1 from me too.

Good luck!

Why are you 'cloning' your mac if I may ask?

Sometimes some routers don't like my mac and i get 'dropped' randomly.

Since you installed the drivers from the site, you may be having a conflict with the nouveau drivers loading first at start and crashing x.

I run 10.04 LTS on here and it can be 'touchy'...

Yes, I know about SET and the others.

There is also pipl, tineye and others.

This was just a 'little' tip and by no way covers everything, I didn't want to take up an entire screen or paste...

Good addition sir. You should really should start a server wiki.

Glad I went back and re-read, I was just fixin to say the same.

You could also tighten up the sendRefererHeader settings too.

I'm set at 0 the default is 2.

Though I do agree with you the forums rules don't allow full disclosure on security.;)

The advantage that crackers have is they are constantly developing and using new methods. Most are keeping...

Thanks DT.

Sometimes what I feel everyone should know turns out to be a short tut on cracking. And, since that went outside the desktop side, pointless here.

Another thing on file permissions,...

I hear ya. TMI.
I'll stop, I don't want to hijack the thread. I also don't want to disclose anything inappropriate.

If a mod deletes it I'll completely understand.

EDIT: I edited out a bunch....

(EDITED OUT by me.)

I have also been seeing a lot of router cracks surfacing here lately. So people need to be careful about sites. Like it's been said before, it's not hard to harvest ip's and...
