The newbie's dilemma!


Recommended Posts

How can anyone visiting here for the first time have any idea that they

will receive good ........ or bad .......... advice?

 

I thought at first that the TechNet Communities must be monitored by

Microsoft staff and therefore be relatively safe. I'm still not sure about

that. Having come here (for ease of use, on someone's advice) it appears

that no such protection applies and that it really is a 'free-for-all' and

is, quite likely, a dangerous place to visit.

 

This may not have always been so - and I do wish to stress that I HAVE

received some excellent and helpful advice, much of which has enabled me to

help myself more and better understand my PC and its' software. I have also

learnt a great deal about 'malware' and how to deal with it.

 

PCButts1 - some while ago now - explained to me how effective it is to run

HiJackThis and then copy and paste a specific entry directly into Google.

Here's an example - O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe Reader Speed Launcher]

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\Reader_sl.exe"

 

Try it for yourself. I got 66,800 responses which can be reviewed at

leisure. <g>

 

What I have NOT found is other people who are trying to find out who

perpetrates the 'malware' in the first place - no-one seems to care. I do!

 

So, in spite of comments like that of 'Fitz' elsewhere on this group, and also having been

'warned-off'' having contact with PCButts1 by Kerry Brown and David H

Lipman, I'm grateful for PCB's help. Perhaps he's one of the good guys after

all, but only experience here will tell. I'm glad I'm not a newbie any more!

Because groups like this are self policing. If someone does give bad advice, 6 other people will chime in, why that advice is wrong.

 

I find the contents of PCButts1 website very disturbing.

HI BoaterDave,

Join the crowd. Your complaint is not specific to this news group or

Microsoft. It is true of every news group which I have visited. Large

companies no longer give out free advice. Large companies do not monitor

news groups. When push comes to shove, how much free advice and/or

monitoring can you expect on a one hundred or two hundred dollar retail

sale. I have no idea if it is still true, but the Windows 98 news group did

not even have an automatic check to weed out filthy attack language and

counter-attacks.

Hello Peter

 

Andrew is one of the good guys. His credentials have never been in question.

 

It is you who is the unknown quantity. I accept that someone at Annexcafe

newsgroups could have been masquerading as you. All you had to do was

confirm, here, that it wasn't you who was posting 'over there'. Simple

really. Yet you refused to do so.

So - you still here tracking me Dave.

 

Someone posting "This man is clearly looney, it is best to ignore him" must

surely have better things to do on a Sunday afternoon?

why are you goading Andrew?

he's a 'good guy' and doesn't deserve this embarrassment from one of his

'friends'.

Goading? I truly do not understand. How can I have possibly caused Andrew

embarrassment here?

 

I completely agree that Andrew is a 'good guy' - as I said in my response to

Peter Foldes just two hours ago.

 

You should have listened to Andrew yourself when he advised you to let me

have my own group. Better still, you should never have excluded me from

Annexcafe in the first place. You may be an innocent party, Li, but

something is NOT straight-forward 'over there'. Think about anyone who may

have encouraged you to exclude me - you may then be a step closer to

discovering who the bad guys really are.

 

What made you come here looking for me again anyway? Are you part of some

secret society which needs to track those who may be suspicious of the

motives of others? Why should my personal views be of any concern to you? As

your very close friend has stated this very afternoon, ""This man is clearly

looney, it is best to ignore him". Why didn't you take Dave's advice and

simply ignore me? So many questions .... yet rarely a straight-forward

answer.

Think about anyone who may have encouraged you to exclude me - you may

then be a step closer to discovering who the bad guys really are.

 

it was you, yourself, who caused you to be 'excluded'.

 

search Usenet for Admin groups, ask them for a group.

 

to find 'bad guys' search Usenet for them. (use google groups if you don't

know how to access Usenet using a news client.)

 

as you have noticed in over 2 years of searching 'private' servers, you have

found nothing. move on to bigger, meaner, badder pastures. or are you afraid

to meet and confront real 'bad guys' ?

 

two steps closer you go to where you truly belong.

i suspect someone will have a new toy to play with soon.

how are you coming along with your ip scanners?

Hi Li

 

I'm fine right here. Thanks for asking.

 

I note that you've not answered any of my questions - nothing changes, eh?

I've been a bit 'off colour' suffering from a summer cold, so didn't at

first pick up on this comment of yours, Li - "how are you coming along with

your ip scanners?"

 

Although others here will not be at all interested I'm sure, I'd be most

pleased if you would remind me of how you know about my IP scanners -

you've not been peeking inside my PC have you, Li?

 

That's impossible, of course! ..... or is it? (but you wouldn't tell me

and the rest of the world if you are able to, now would you? <g>)

All logical.

We watch for bad guys here.

Bad guys do IP scanning.

If you have used an IP scanner, your ISP will disconnect you, for being a

bad guy.

I'd like you to qualify the word 'we', please, Dave.

 

I didn't notice your presence here before you came here looking for me.

Indeed - so why do you do it?

That will apply equally to you, no doubt.

I do not IP scan.

Well, maybe not "we" any more, I'm pretty sure fewer people can even be

bothered with you.

You just proved to me that either you like twisting words (as below), or you

are befuddled, it matters not which you are.

So, like so many others, I shall now kill file you, but you can still reply

for your own pleasure.

Quite simply, I don't want to know you, or your problems, in any shape or

form.

You are a danger to yourself and others, and should keep under the radar.

 

One parting note, if you are capable of learning quick, it won't happen

quick.

Reasons are-

1/ you don't listen

2/ your mind is not open

3/ you are a waste of time and space.

 

Bet you reply, which will prove my point(s), which are-

you are a bad guy

you don't listen.

Not all bad guys do IP scanning. I scan IP ranges from time to time myself.

you use ip scanners to find vulnerable computers so you can 'help' them by

showing them they are unprotected.

 

as you've seen by trying to scan mine, mine doesn't exist to you.
