can I trust games downloaded off of kazaa? - GoFuckYourself.com

BVF · 04-17-2003, 09:42 AM

I'm seeing a shitload of games for free on kazaa..but unlike music, I would assume that you can add your own code to fuck up a virus victim.

Am I correct in this assumption to not download games off of kazaa?

Martin · 04-17-2003, 09:43 AM

Yes but, if you have norton or some sort of anti virus your safe..

Not true.

There is nothing stopping an .exe from modifying the registry or the file system.

Never run an .exe that you don't trust 100%

I woudl'nt man.. Movies and Games are huge virus and trojan traps on Kazaa. Even with Virus protection I learned the hard way.

lEricPl · 04-17-2003, 09:52 AM

The thing is most AntiVirus software only looks for known viruses, trojans etc..

There is nothing stopping an .exe from moving/editing/deleting your file system or registry.

Then, when you boot up....

Gotcha.

Martin · 04-17-2003, 09:57 AM

I've been using Kazaa for awhile now. Haven't been hit yet.. My Norton has blocked it all.. Then again I've nenver downloaded a exe file yet..

Nano · 04-17-2003, 09:58 AM

And can I trust girls I meet in pubsby night?

I better use an antivirus also in this case...

04-17-2003, 10:38 AM

I downloaded Grand Theft Auto III from Kazaa just to test it out.

It worked fine and had no malicious code in it. I don't think I will do it again though, as it is just not worth the risk for a $50 game.

2nd day of having broadband, and BVF is already the biggest warez king on gfy!

nemesis · 04-17-2003, 10:58 AM

i download games from kazaa all the time. Norton never have failed until now.

nap · 04-17-2003, 10:58 AM

i know i'm probably gonna get flammed for saying this but your better off downloading games from aol(if you dont use irc). the warez kids are pretty good at what they do.

Libertine · 04-17-2003, 11:00 AM

Only get warez from reliable warez groups.

The real problem is not viruses, trojans or spyware its the bloody keyloggers that are installed with just about every piece of warez floating around on there.

Good luck finding that shit. Norton or or any other anti-virus won't detect it and neither will any anti-spyware flavour of the month software.

How many critical passwords a day do you enter on the keyboard?

Okay there Mr, Dazza get back in your mom's basement before I pimp slap your newbie ass

Gutterboy · 04-17-2003, 01:48 PM

Kazaa is best for web development software, movies, TV shows and MP3's. Kinda weak on games.. lots of fake files and so on.

If you don't IRC, try alt.2600.warez

As someone mentioned, the kiddies know what they're doing. Start sharing, get a few FTP acct's, and you're set.

Is there a way to prevent keyloggers ? Norton has done well for weeding out the viruses & trojans on kazza like a few people here have already said. All of the viruses and trojans I've found on kazza have been from downloads of video or software, can you still get viruses and trojans from downloading mp3's ?

NoCarrier · 04-17-2003, 04:10 PM

Kazaa sucks.

Just buy the fucking games. If not, well, there is always Overnet or Edonkey2000 or go to www . sharereactor . com
