Mortok Tristan	Posted - 2006.10.09 17:30:00 - [31] The entire forum is under attack at the moment..and probably has been for the last few hours.
Caerleus Board of Twenty	Posted - 2006.10.09 17:35:00 - [32] This whole episode is sickening. As a presumption, I'm guessing that this is an indivdual or group that has had their income slashed by recent bannings and is looking either for a new avenue to generate incomes or as a retaliation attack against CCP and its user base. Very sad and worrying indeed. Eve is like a new girlfriend - you know its going down at some point, its just when and for how long.

Mortok Tristan	Posted - 2006.10.09 17:40:00 - [34] This is indeed sickening. I believe this is the first time in 2y, it has been this bad.

spurious signal Caldari Brainiacs	Posted - 2006.10.09 17:52:00 - [36] Originally by: Tharrn It's not trial accounts - they are using hacked accounts. the last two bots posted using characters that are over a year old. Really? Didn't know that, sorry. Well, in that case, well... damn.
Zarks Amarr Electronics	Posted - 2006.10.09 18:06:00 - [37] My friends account have been hacked and the "create new petition" on the left on this page doesnt work now sadly. And they cant log in to eve or to the forums anymore to do a petition. How are they supposed to handle this? __________________________________________________

It pretty much crashed my IE windows i had open and such, What should I do now? Did it install something on my computer? It was on a computer I don't play eve online on anyways.

Silly spammers... but the people who fall for it are even more silly. Keep it up, CCP :-) I appreciate your hard work in getting these threads/people taken care of so quickly.

Hakera Anari Higard	Posted - 2006.10.09 18:46:00 - [53] i hope you have a dev on the case with backend access, it is far easier to ban by ip range then do a sql query on the backend to remove all posts at once. You can then run a sql query in the content box looking for the url to find any posted with other characters. that method is at least far more quicker than using frontend forum mod functions. You can also implement a flood control specifically designed to stop bots which should only affect dark shikiri aside from the bots in his normal posting but the effect is minimal.

DubanFP Caldari	Posted - 2006.10.09 19:39:00 - [55] I like the other guy opened a link in a response before it was spammed out. I have 2 csrss files on task manager, one csrss is on c:\Windows, however it is 44kb not 32, and there is no autoexec file to be found. Virus checks "with 2 different anti-virus programs" have been run and nothing has been found. I've been unable to post because i don't want to type in my password on the affected computer. I'm on another computer right now, password has been changed on this comp to something with ~10 alphanumeric characters. But right now i'm still a bit worried about other personal inforamation a bit more importain then just this game. any other info on this?

I have 2 csrss files on task manager, one csrss is on c:\Windows, however it is 44kb not 32,and there is no autoexec file to be found. 1. Disable system restore ( Select Start followed by Control Panel, and double-click the System icon. Then: 1.Click the System Restore tab on the System dialog box 2.To enable, clear the Turn off System Restore check box 3.To disable, select the Turn off System Restore check box 4.Click OK when done 2. Delete the file c:/windows/csrss.exe (make sure it is in the c://windows/ folder and not c://windows/system32/ folder (the latter is a valid file) 3. backup your registry (just in case) - follow this guide 4. click start -> run -> type regedit.exe 4a. Click edit and find search for windows/csrss.exe 4b. You should get a result - delete it 5. reboot your machine, confirm everything works ok, then delete the backup of your registry. think thats the right way to do it anyway. But im not 100%

Eldo Davip Forum Moderator Interstellar Services Department	Posted - 2006.10.09 20:45:00 - [59] Hakera, Thanks for the suggestions. We have been discussing several of these internally. The devs should come up with a solution soon. ___ Email Us (Report a bad post) \| Forum Rules - Read 'em! \| Website
