OMG HAX
People always gripe about the vulnerabilities of computers, but have any of you actually been hacked before? Or to further incite discussion, have any of you ever gotten some form of virus, crippling or otherwise?
I've only had one Virus YEARS ago back when I was running Mac OS 8.6, and it was completely non-lethal. Definitely a perk of having a Mac is not worrying about that shite. Mods, if this is more suited for the computer forum, feel free to move it. Jam it back in, in the dark. ![]() |
Sasser's the only time the integrity of a computer I've been using has been compromised, and that was easily fixed. Apart from that and occasional malware, I've been fine.
And besides, I own a Mac now. There's nowhere I can't reach. |

Yeah, curse that uninformed general public for not knowing the ins and outs of computing! Morons!

I've only had one Virus YEARS ago back when I was running windows 3.1, and it was completely non-lethal. Definitely a perk of having actual knowledge of computer maintenence is not worrying about that shite. Mods, if this is more suited for the computer forum, feel free to move it. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? <a_lurker|laptop> I think your car died too.

The only thing really serious I got was the MSBLAST worm a few years back. I was freaking out because it would force my computer to shut down after every 5 minutes I had it running. It would give me a countdown for 30 seconds, and BAM. My computer shuts down. I think I had to boot up in safe mode and run my virus scanner to get rid of it.
I was speaking idiomatically. ![]() Dance party! |
EDIT: Oh yeah, we are talking about viruses. Nothing lethal ever, though I've had AVG Free detect something once or twice and isolate it. But for the most part, I've never had a "virus".

My parents have somehow received a virus multiple times that would fuck the computer up to the point that it wont turn on.
FELIPE NO |
Way back when Kazaa managed to send us one that caused the laptop to fuck up pretty badly. It was such a long time ago I can't even remember if we managed to salvage anything from it.

I got some sort of virus. Basically, it would have a dialog box open up, saying "Mr. blahblah says not today" (I forgot the actual name) and then it would shut down. Well...I just did Ctrl-Alt-Del the next time, then ended the program for that before it could turn my computer off.
Still, I had to reformat my computer as I didn't know what else was on there at that point and didn't want to take chances. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I've never gotten virus'd since I purchased my own computer. My family's computers, however, get virus'd all the time. This is probably due to the fact that they don't bother purchasing antivirus/antispyware software ever, and my teenage brother doesn't know how to safely browse for porn. Or cover his tracks after.
I remember once, back the old 56K, mIRC/AIM days, my family's computer got hax'd by some funny guy who left completely non-threatening messages on a chat window that would pop up on its own and never go away. My dad formatted the computer and got us a different ISP. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. ![]() |
The only time I've gotten a virus was when I decided to run "photoshop cs2 crack REAL.exe" I was desperate.
For the most part I don't really need AV software. Honestly, not being an idiot will keep you from getting a virus. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? ![]() |
