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
Could have just pulled the computer off the network.
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.
well. downloading p2p does accelerate if multiple people are on the botnet
and unless you work with your ISP, it's out of your hands.
Yeah, there's that with p2p.
it works on various mmorpg launchers
yeah there are huge grey areas on the interwebz
but i learned from it
don't download shady download manager
There sure are. I'm sure an obscene amount of shit online is just russian scam pages you shouldn't use.
i think the last time i got a computer disabling virus was 10 years ago
on winXP
i still prefer to run my pc without anti virus
Back when Windows had all its neat little security problems to exploit.
