You are entitled to your opinion, Mr Lipman.

 

That does not mean that my supposition is incorrect!

Some evidence exists that Prevx goes back to 2002. However, I believe I

stumbled upon them about the time you did.

I fail to see the connection. I trust you successfully defended your

They'd have been here after you for sure, FTR - had it not been for the

snow today! style_emoticons/

 

Just for a moment - totally hypothetically - if one suspected that a

product such as Prevx was being offered by the 'bad guys' - are you

aware of any organisation which might be willing to look at same in

detail .............. just to rule it out, so to speak?

No. I'm reasonably sure that there are enough individuals doing so

that word would soon spread if anything untoward was found. A

cyber-friend of mine just loved to do things like that - not out of

suspicion, just out of curiosity - and publish his results. Since one

such disclosure got him in legal trouble, and labeled as a terrorist,

I'm not sure he publishes his findings anymore.

 

I bet he still does the reverse engineering for his own edification.

 

....it's sad really when the law helps the bad guys more than the

good guys.

Thanks, FTR.

 

The bad guys always make mistakes (good guys do too - but they simply

say "Ooops! Sorry")

 

I am NOT saying that Prevx isn't bonio fido, but please look here

https://www.cleverbridge.com/53/?scope=chec...t&id=Jh66JhIa33

 

You will note a charge for VAT of 19%.

 

It is mistakes like that which arouse my curiosity! <smile>

Hello Pete - my apology for the delay in responding.

 

Just for fun, I downloaded and installed a new product from Prevx called

Prevx Edge. The programme scanned all files (it said) and then reported

that I had a Rootkit. I did not request any further action, but submited

said file to Virus total. This was the finding:

I did not enjoy the experience of recovering funds from PayPal

after the fraudulent transaction. At the time, PayPal was an independent

company but, as I'm sure you are aware, it is now owned by eBay itself.

 

I thought I had been careful, yet after the theft I discovered a

Trojan Downloader - found by Trend Micro!

 

Lessons learned.

 

Interestingly, all correspondence in relation to my claim against

PayPal had to be conducted by post - snail mail. They told me the

Internet could not be trusted! <wink>

 

In spite of lots of lateral thinking, neither I nor my wife have

made progress with your signature - I'm sure it's not meant to be easy

to decode - just as one might expect from someone whose address is

barcrnahgjuvfgyr@nby.pbz !!! <smile>

When you gave him the permutation bracket hint, I figured you didn't

care to evade him. I didn't catch on to it at all until you pointed out the

brackets. I just assumed it was "geek code" of some sort IYKWIM.

Maybe he doesn't want his address in newsgroups in plaintext?

After all, he did bother to convert it to ciphertext didn't he?

You are right FTR - but I don't care any more! As far as it goes, I

trust you and everything you have ever told me.

 

It was the same with Robear Dyer (PA Bear) when I first ventured onto

these Microsoft newsgroups. Robear Dyer, however, has lied about me - I

know that, He knows that ......... and so does Robear Dyer. You will

just have to take my word for it though.

You will see that I have apologised. I'd thought it just a light-hearted

bit of fun. I'll try not to do such a thing again.

I know what you mean...

 

 

Hello FTR:

 

My first intentions have always been to resist automated email address

harvesting.

 

However, I wished to provide a communications path for some, if they

wished, to "take me to task" for any inaccuracies or transgressions I

may have caused. That way, anyone could vent their outrage without

public embarrassment.

 

Then, when Dave inquired, I thought he might benefit by having him

reason the problem out. However, someone /may/ have passed him a note

in class :-). No harm, no foul, no passing grade today...

 

Last year I read posts from a person whose signature block was four

lines of SED/AWK code that was very impressive and achieved the same

end. I wanted something similar, yet not over the top.

 

A SHA-512 hash probably would have been a bit much.

 

My warm regards to you,

 

Pete

Sorry about that - it would be like pulling teeth and me having

to watch.

And we've all seen people impersonated by unethical types, and they've

posted links to crap using the impersonated name.
