Virus site - I'll accept a ban

Thanks in a way, and i didn't mean to give anyone a virus if they did get one.

But everyone lets let this thread die

 

Aye but aren't apples different? I don't know like, I'm just going off my dad (mega-apple geek) told me, but from I understand Apple deliberately make it easy for the user: either click yes or no...Where as microsoft don't make it that simple?

 

A .exe file can be unknowingly downloaded when visiting a website that disguises it, I'm not stupid, I know what malware is and I had to remove it via microsoft security essentials upon rebooting my computer. At no point was I offered a "run now" or "save" option regarding a .exe file.

 

i have no apple quilifications apart from when i got the job

Before i got it i have worked for talk talk, orange ect.. all in the same job

im a microsoft certified desktop technition, 2 .

But yes they are different but they work pritty much the same

People cannot get a virus without downloading it and opening it and saying yes to it.

simple as that, tbh i wouldnt download off a site tash has linked,

anyway off to pull pints for a charity dooo.

in a bit peopl

 

Clearly.

Just stop replying, it's not that hard.

 

By that i meant i wans't going to reply to hizmo and skylarker anymore, and i wanted this thread to die but people started it up again and i just wanted to thank Wise James for sort of arguing in my favour.

 

-nothing can be downloaded to your machine without you saying yes to it, specially on windows 7. Basically if that has happened, You dont have a firewall + anti virus. IF you have both its impossible, if you have just one then that is unlucky, Not everyone is stupid no but the majority of the english public are

 

Tash dont drag me down with you

 

Depends on the operating system you're using, or security settings tbf, and if you're using a broswer like IE it can download files without asking too.

 

This is why i don't like some people sometimes sticking up for me, i actually don't want people to be dragged down with me.

Anyway, i think this whole thing was a massive over recation. The link should have been deleted, and that should have been that. I apologized.

 

It was a work computer with windows xp. Only has a basic anti-virus package but the point is no one should be knowingly posting links to dodgy websites.

 

Yes certain things can happen, but honestly anyone using IE and anything older then XP sp3 is asking for trouble, use firefox and windows 7 or xp sp3 and hay presto no problems caused by microsoft

Firewall - zone alarm
Anti Virus - AVG free

= 0 viruses from porn, GEEEEEEEEEET UPPPPP SAUSAGE

 

lol yeah I know that, but not everyone on the forum will that's all

People not posting links to viruses would help like

 

Can't stand Zone Alarm, it pops up before everything you go on and there's too much allowing or denying.

 

Seriously


its


The End

thats all folks

 

Oh can i put my signature back then

 

Why don't we just permanently ban him? Is this site ran by the FA? Or actual mods? Because not even on the old 606 would this stand.

 

I can't stand you and you keep popping up like a bad smell all the time.

 

Why do we not just ban him? Our mods seem to be taking a page out of the FA's method book. He's hated, he's a fool, he's a racist, he's got terrorists after him ( nobhead) GET RID.

 

Should be a lifetime ban for what the smart arse tried to do! Would he pay for repairs needed to other users computers? Would he ****!
