This is CONFIRMED to be an attempt to infect Chris Evan's computer. There's a REASON I ban people.

Oh! You're scanning EVERYBODY... Why aren't I surprised :D

*You're

I am looking into this now....what these files are/were

I just don't understand the BENEFIT to infect someone's computer :/

NONE! There is no such thing as a "downloader". NEVER EVER OPEN A FILE WITH THE EXTENSION OF EXE! EVER!

No threats on my computer... :-/

I still don't see the benefit of doing that...

Then it is an UNDOCUMENTED TROJAN. There is likely a keylogger in your machine now. DO NOT BELIEVE ANY LIES MADE TO EXCUSE THIS! I'LL SAY IT AGAIN; THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE. NONE WHATSOEVER!

Just in case you are a stupid Christian, and missed the point (as stupid christians do): THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

Have I mentioned that THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE?

In OTHER news... fuck that: THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

NONE

If ANY of you think there IS a legitimate reason to send an executable file, FUCK OFF COP!

How can there possibly be any "stupid Christians" left?

Adults with imaginary friends are EVERYWHERE.

As per my instructions, here is what was trying to be sent: http://www.4shared.com/mp3/upYHMbHu/ntt_new_trust_technology_part_a.html http://www.4shared.com/mp3/upYHMbHu/ntt_new_trust_technology_part_b.html Here is what was sent: ntt_new_trust_technology_-_parta.downloader.exe ntt_new_trust_technology_-_parta.downloader(1).exe NTT_new_trust_technology_-_part_B.downloader.exe NTT_new_trust_technology_-_part_B.downloader(1).exe The actual information MAY be legitimate, but what I was sent is suspicious. The email was blocked by Scott's gateway with this message: This message was blocked because its content presents a potential 552-5.7.0 security issue.

an MP3 file is an mp3 file. NOT AN EXE FILE. HE MAILED THE EXE TO YOU, AS AN ATTACHMENT. He did NOT PASS A URL like you just did.

You may have missed my previous point. Allow me to repeat it: THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

Since you are so easily distracted, let me point out that THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

Did I mention THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE?

I have not missed your point!! I was simply showing what was done to a seemingly legitimate link.

I'm pretty sure I recently pointed out that THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

NONE! NOT EVER!

And then furthering the point with WHY was there 4 attachments?

Let me rephrase.....

"here is what was trying to be sent:" As I have no idea what was trying to be sent, Here are the possibly legitimate links:

That seem to have been doctored...

Click on the link and you see an MP3 file that can be played in your browser. He did not send that, he sent an EXECUTABLE file which will run in the security context of YOU. Like every idiot on the internet using windows, you will have ADMINISTRATIVE access, instead of using a locked-down USER account, so it runs AS AN ADMINISTRATOR and nothing will stop it. As i said: THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

For those of you who may be stewing in their own ignorance, and thinking Rick Carne might have innocently done it: THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE. NONE!

Allow me to play Devil's Advocate....I am a computer idiot. I most certainly would have sent an .exe file prior to 2 hours ago.

Why would you do that? Have you EVER recieved a legitimate EXE file? Your "novice" status precludes any chance of MAKING one, so why would you EVER send one?

You suck at "devil's advocate", BTW. :P

Because I have no idea how they work. If I happen to have one and someone needed it, I would send it. I can't say if I have or haven't.....

OK, so why would someone "need" it when you don't even know what they are?

Just saying....perhaps Rick got them and sent them because he is also a computer idiot. I don't know.....

Exactly! I don't know!!! But I would have never questioned sending one until 2 hours ago

So... in your imaginary world, another "novice" receives EXECUTABLE files that DON'T DO ANYTHING A USER SEES, and says "duh, I'm gonna e-mail did to muh friends"? REALLY?

hmmmm...novice is the key word there

But Scott, if your email is infected, like a hotmail account, someone else can start sending bizillions of emails on your behalf. Can you see if his email is infected?

You, even as a novice, have never, nor have you ever had cause to "mail executable files". I know this, because THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

He uses Yahoo mail. Online services are not "infected", MACHINES ARE.

EXE files TARGET MACHINES. Email is transported by way of the SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL (SMTP)... emphasis on SIMPLE. There is nothing TO "infect"... the protocol is just too damn stupid.

Oh shit... I didn't know that :/

Now you do. ;)

First thing I learned in 2014!

EXE files are WINDOWS SPECIFIC. They won't work on linux, and will bail if there is a WINE emulator on it, because WINE PRETENDS to be a windows machine, so the virus/trojan in the EXE file's payload will hit things that simply aren't there in WINE. APPLE and LINUX are IMMUNE... but apple machines have "backdoors" so trojans would be moot. Apple comes with malware PREINSTALLED.

LINUX is the way, my children!

LINUX is! I've known that for a long time...

http://ubuntu.com

FREE as in FREE SPEECH... and FREE BEER.

And freedom

that's FREEDUMB...

No... this is freedom. Free-Dumb is when Christianity or such crap touches it and "magic documents" or "magic phrases" come into play.

Freedom, is still freedom. :P

But FREE SPEECH and FREE BEER has been touched...

No. Christians are too stupid. Most think computers are "devil tools" anyway.

I see FREE SPEECH as 2 Dean's in the bin...

Are we done here? Does everybody get it? Can I go back to my banning?

go... I'm gonna look into that UBUNTU

We use LUBUNTU ( http://lubuntu.net/ )as it is not as much of a resource pig as UBUNTU. It is derived from UBUNTU, which is derived from DEBIAN.

Fuck. I am on a mac :-( I had no idea malware was preinstalled. I had a suspected for the last few years that something was funky with apple. And it is the preferred machine of the graphics/television/film editing industry. Thank you Admiral.

Ubuntu all the way... my gateway was puppy Linux when my computer had some issues from that point onwards I got hooked on Ubuntu I don't like unity though I'll roll with classic Gnome... :-) I'll check those executables on my VM later I am intrigued....Its freaking scary how easy it is to write simple batch scripts that wont be detected an can cause serious damage to your system. I am curious however why is Chris Evan getting warnings from Scott network or let me cut to the core how does one become part of Scotts network?

Scott, I will field this one....first James Baal, you have to be reaaaalllllllly dumb with computers. Second, you have to get an email that you know nothing about, sidestep your antivirus software and download it. Third, you have to ask Scott to take a look at it because you can't figure it out. Fourth, you have to try to send said email to him...which is blocked by his gateway. So, if you are looking for instructions, there they are!

Wait I take note of that ......Fuck that sounds pretty hard ;-P I am at the four shared site but those files are not of exe type they appear to be mp3s.... where can i see those executables? I am making this a learning process for me, I am new to this :-)

OK, so if I get it right....THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO SEND AN EXECUTABLE FILE.

"Apple comes with malware PREINSTALLED." What does this mean? :-/

The .exe files are ONLY(to my knowlededge) an attachment to an email I received.

In the mean time here is some starting points just in case you are worried.... http://computer-networking.wonderhowto.com/how-to/see-who-is-connected-computer-with-netstat-262221/

James Baal, I looked a that vid...I don't get it

Can you attach them on my PM ???? Please I really would love to play around with them...! I am sure that Scotts team is ten thousand times more qualified than me to check these files however I can not let them be this way forever....

NO!!!! That would mean I would have to download them and put them onto my machine. I don't like to make the same mistake twice. :-D We all know what happens when I do! I will send it to you via email, but I don't know if thats a good idea. Unless you are savvy and feel you will be safe from malware

My bad wasn't thinking....and considering that i dont think I am ready to do this shit yet :-(

http://www.insidetechnology360.com/index.php/how-to-know-if-your-computer-has-been-hacked-2-18204/

Fuck it you learn from your mistatkes hit me! itsfeckingobvious@gmail.com

Mistakes......

I use Windows, but never as administrator. I am always a "USER" on my computer & it is password protected. Thanks again Scott for recommending "lubuntu" as I am looking to migrate over to Linux based platform.

Chris, it means that malware is ALREADY on the Mac when you receive it. Courtesy of the manufacturer :)

Why in the hell would it have malware on it when it is new? Why does this make no frickin sense?

It is a built in monitoring system for big brother type things. It makes no sense to us.. but to the manufacturer of the product it becomes an accomplice to security of the status quo.

Well said!

Scott, here is how I would send .exe files being a complete computer idiot. I would watch a video online. I would say "jeez....that was pretty good. I am going to download those." Then I download them and keep them on file for a long time. Then I get a virus that messes with my files and does something like this. Then someone asks me for them and I agree and send them completely oblivious to the .exe and what it means. I don't know if this is possible or probable..but with my novice experience I could see it happening. Thoughts?

I never sent a .exe file...... An executable file is a type of computer file that runs a program when it is opened. This means it executes code or a series of instructions contained in the file. The two primary types of executable files are 1) compiled programs and 2) scripts.

a type of computer file that runs a program .....

NOW I know about them...before, I had no idea!

ADDITIONAL NOTES on EXECUTABLE FILES: The following (on Windows machines) extensions ere EXECUTABLE and as such HAVE NO LEGITIMATE REASON TO BE E-MAILED: EXE COM BAT PIF VBS and PLEASE take a little time to learn about the computer you use daily, and PUT YOUR FUCKING LIFE on. Because if you DON'T, others will turn you into a victim of your ignorance.

Chris Evan; you need to stop making shit up. There's enough REAL threats.

Yes Sir!

This Ubuntu is pretty neat...

It is. :D From its Debian origins, you are looking at over 2 decades of refining.

also, watch out for the double ontandre, or double extension like filename.txt.exe and .scr a screen saver file can deploy a payload...

YES! Thank you David Johansen. This is a VERY old trick. SO old I always erroneously feel everyone is aware of the "old ones", ala; "Nobody stomps on a burning bag of shit anymore". I keep forgetting the obvious.

i know someone that brings out marshmallows. old. try handing a kid a diskette and tell him it has a game on it. A:\>FORMAT.EXE C:\

not "runs a program", IS an executable file. IS a program. a computer is a box of hardware that runs software programs. malware is malicious software code, and just like scott, the good stuff is available without charge. http://www.malwarebytes.org/ wont interfeer with your antivirous program. neither will housecall.trendmicro.com a decent free scanning tool. if you want, hijackthis, before norton got a hold of it, that i can send you. a really powerful program that allows you to rip things out otherwise difficult to delete. as for the email attachment, as long as you dont/didn't save and click it, if its just on a drive you can just delete it. Shift +Delete skips the recycle bin. note windows 7 and 8 are spying on you behind your back, you accepted it in the license agreement.

save all your important files duplicated externally. learn how to reformat & reinstall an operating system. keep a backup somewhere a warrant wouldnt get it, keep old parts. i talk from experience. 8-9 years ago they came and took everything, i eventually got it all back, but it took 8 months. i was only down for about 3 hours because there were parts they didnt take, only whole computers and drives, and disks i made. they left all the other stuff. yeah, the charge was extortion & tresspassing. had the ext. dismissed, plead to the tresspass...

David Johansen gets it.

still, i only get some of it. you give more credit than deserved, but i'll take it as long as it gets me through to the next level, because i know your still holding out the really good stuff.

I know the feeling David Johansen :-D
