this is kinda funny to me since i know taylor04 personaly and hes not got anything to do with any hacking. im willing to bet this isnt even a hacking problum. im willing to bet ombey is juat a little peved that taylor bet his but in game and got ransumed for that isk that was sent to taylor. now if thats not it then taylor was hacked to. ive know this guy for 2 years and trust him fully. dont go blameing someone unless you have proff its his hack.
I have to agree. It doesn't seem like taylor would do. Maybe he was just a mule in this and had his account hacked too. I'll hold my judgement till I hear the full story from him or CCP.
I joined BoB and all I got was this crappy sign 族

Originally by: Pairadice Why on earth would you run an .exe from someone you had no idea who it was? I mean come on this is Intraweb 101 here.
I have to agree with this. I assume it was a self-extractable archive - in which case you should not have run it. If you don't display program extensions (a VERY bad idea imo), you could've been handled a file like 'archivename.rar.exe', which would then display as 'archivename.rar' and not attract your attention. As far as I know, there is no way a non-executable file can spawn a trojan install (I consider scripts as a form of executable).
This being said, CCP needs to come down and come down hard on the perpetrators. While I fully support scamming etc. using game mechanics only, this, on the other hand, calls for exemplary punishment.
No, I'm afraid I am to blame for the trojan actually getting onto my PC- the RAR contained SCR files. I was thinking SCReenshot (like a moron), and just opened them. I have been kicking myself, believe me.
Kick yourself harder repeatdly...thats a screensaver extension....used to screw over people for years...
Did not mean to be harsh, but opening one of those file types is the eve version of APing though a 0.0 choke point  ========= "I am not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why can`t we just take the safety labels off everything and let the problem fix its self |

To be on the safe side I would change any passwords you have used on that PC, online banking/amazon/ebay/WoW everything.

This is not entirely correct. The program you use to view any type of file can be bugged. An attacker that knows about the bug may be able to exploit the bug and cause it to execute code that is embedded in the image/mp3/whatever. It is hard, but far from impossible; it has been done many times. The most recent example is the WMF vulnerability, but there are many more. This is why keeping your system fully patched at all times is a very good idea.

You will need to go into the registry and delete the key that runs the file, plus delete the file itself.
I could remote onto your PC and try and remove it if your not computer savvy.

If the guy probably hacked many accounts and sent the isk from one hacked account to another to make it harder to track.

When changing your passwords......either reformat/remove virus or change them on a different computer. Safer to reformat to be honest.
Just deleting the file prolly won't work as nearly all viruses are self replicating.

a program that i would suggest is hijack this. if you use this post the log and i can help you discern what you need to kill.
also, turn off your system restore and if you have any problems do your scan in safe mode.

Regarding the isk being sent to taylor04. Cr4ckers like to send the isk via as many legal accounts as possible, in order to delete any trace of where the isk is really going.
So I'm not saying that taylor04 is or is not the cr4cker in question, I just wanted to point that fact out.
Oh, and never ever open up strange files from people you don't know. But I guess you've learned that now.

Ombey I feel for you man. Things like this ruin ones day like no other.
But for anyone reading who do not know the ground floor basics of internet security, always do the following: Make sure that file extensions are shown. This is a stupid attempt of Windows trying to emulate a Mac. And I bet you dimes to donuts its the single leading cause of all virus and trojans spreading all over because some AOL user likes the purty graphics instead of checking the extension .
And another thing to be leary of is if someone wants to share pictures with you, it better be in JPG/JPEG/BMP format. And if you get a RAR file and there are OTHER file types in there, delete right away. There should not be any other kind of file in the rar file if its only meant for pictures. If the sender says you need those files are whatever, tell him to go to hell.
