There are lots more than just that... those archives are riddled with viruses and trojans.

Also some files are trojans or virii, with the only intention to use it on a lan
and get to know how they work.

Anyway, they should be there, they were in the past....

I think this is an opportune time to remind those who are not aware: never run as root unless you must! I remember when i had to break my bad habit from always using a root account, i can't tell you how many hard lessons i had to learn before i switched to primarily using a limited account. Remember you can always rightclick "run as" when you need to install/run a program, plus you will be making everyone else on the net a whole lot safer in the meantime.

Not only that, but when you download anything from anyone's security archives, you had better be paying very very close attention to what is inside...and when you do finally get up the courage to run it, to run it in a closed test environment...

Hey, I downloaded a virus/exploit and my antivirus program tells me it is a virus/exploit! OMG! I would have been disappointed if my antivirus program didn't detect anything in the archive. :rolleyes: By the way, isn't there any search for the downloads?? I couldn't find the archive that praveendasika mentioned. Well, maybe a searching tool would encourage users to use those files wrongfully as they can really be quite dangerous stuff...
You know, I heard they're preparing a law here in Finland that would make it illegal for one to even own any hacking software... Distributing is already illegal, as far as I know... Oh, now I got far away from the topic... Maybe I'll just shut up.

Edit/Add: Oh, FrameWork, thanks for the tip... "Run as"... That should be a reasonable way of installing programs without first logging off and back on as administrator. I'll change my personal account from admin to a limited user rightaway. :)

Lol

wow who'd have thought that you might find a virus or a trojan on a site dedicated to studying computer security(for lack of a better term). reminds me of a friend who downloaded VCL(virus creation lab for all you newbies) a long time ago and wondered how he got infected

Your very welcome, actually i learned that from watching techtv around a year or so ago, at first it can be a pain, but once you get into the habit it becomes second nature. In fact my brother will often poke fun of me when he sees me go through the effort while running stuff, and i just say hey, i have'nt had virus damage in well over a year so.... The benefits far outwiegh the cost where this is concerned. :)
