ransomeware has gotten pretty agressive i figured
i just download 1 shitty download manager
All you'd need is to hook a scammer up to a VM with it running.
instantly ruined my whole computer
irreversible
Ah, it's hardly worth the time unfucking a Windows install crawling with that shit.
yeah
well
i just tried spybot, avira and some other anti virus
but they couldn't delete shit
Found your leak.
so i just went through deleting the windows install
it was pretty scary though
Those meme AVs are worse than useless.
it prompted a cmd when i was not touching the computer
so someone tried to remote control
on the very least attempt
but then i just unplugged the computer
i hope he didn't grab my bitcoin wallet xD
but non of my accounts changed
so i think he was just a step before it
Fixed it offline.
well
i didn't have much time to think i guess
Fair point.
so i just unplugged on this last task
i just saw that a cmd prompt finished installing some super admin remote control
Mhm. I hate computers.
i actually thought that i unplug it
sideinstall a antivirus
and let it run
but as soon as it was connected to the internet again, it tried to run the same stuff in taskmanager
so i just said fuck it, save the last downloaded porns and wipe
never experienced something aggressive as that
i also thought it was a simple download tool
chip.de for example provides a p2p download tool which increases your download speed while asking you to install minor adware
but this one.. dunno what i downloaded at that time
instantly installed various malicious services
As far as I'm concerned, there's no such thing as a download accelerator.
The only way to accelerate your downloads is stick a better cable between the computer and network.
