WTF is this?
 

This morning when I got into work I had this interesting popup on my PC:

http://www.adam-lee.com/popup.jpg

Anyone know how they do that? Looks like a direct message to my computer..

I had that on one of my PCs also, that's firewalled even.

Fuckin NetBios spammers!

Time delayed pop up?

Hey Snazzy, your desktop is way too clean.

he doesnt have shit on his desktop

holy shit thats scary,

i'd call the fuckers and cuss them out

Recently I received an e-mail that advertised a service like it:

Hmmmmmm....

I got the EXACT same thing on my pc yesterday afternoon as I was shutting it down.

I closed the window and forgot about it till I saw that. Anyone else?

And I receive those #$%^#$% University Diplomas on almost all of my e-mail addresses.... they are the most aggressive spammers I know. They do not advertise a website, but always a phone number. Man, I would like to shut them down!

:mad: :mad: :mad:

I had the same thing. i didn't even bother reading it I just closed it.

Opinions on how it gets addy's? Seems a number of us have had this recently... Searches your ICQ contacts? Or outlook address book?

I would say it's sending to IP's not e-mail addresses.

What a great fucking way to sell Internet Eraser!

"Warning - Questionable Material of a Sexual Nature has been found on your PC. YOU'RE FIRED McFLY!"

It's called spyware.

got that EXACT message as well, maybe netsend?

Indeed, it looks like a net send exploit.

That is just too bad.

How long before they write a virus that will open itself?

net send domain:www.gofuckyourself.com /users sign up for www.puremeds.com

Had the exact same message on my PC this morning.

Fuckin spammers! :ak47:

People who had this spam message on their PC: what OS are you using?

I bet XP....

if it is a net send exploit, it has to be on the NT platform

That is a net send message, old DOS comand built it to windows,


To disable on NT4, Win2k and XP go to your services and disable your "Messenger Service"

This will not affect any other services of your PC.

It was mostly used in office Networks, you could send a "Net Send" message to all compuetrs on your network.

It's been years since I have touched a win98 machine the service is somewhere?

All the spammer needs in your computer name to do this.

I made a post today on expoliting NetBios but it was for Win98 & ME.. Stealing passwords... wonder if any Win98 & ME user bother to down load it....:1orglaugh

you wouldnt need a computer name, you can send the mesaage to all computers on a network using the /users command. For those of you at college on a large network, you can have some serious fun with this!

I got one of those also!

WTF! I've been getting a bunch of little popups periodically w/o having anything open.

There is a program that keeps installing itself, called "Gator Ads" or something like that. Don't know how it gets there, but, I remove it, and it comes back.

I wonder if that has something to do with that popup this morning.

Enlighten me :)

It looks really colse to the same thing that was made famous with sub7 trojan. Looks like they just made use of it for advertising purposes.

Snazzy!!!

Where the hell have you been bro?

I've had one of those each of the last three days :(

I wondered if anyone would figure out netsend/messenger for spams. It's annoying isn't it?

http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/a...374542,00.html

That has instructions on how to disable the built-in network messenger. It will stop these ads.

Yup that's a win2k net message...you can modify it to send to ip's, then rename your computer and blammo..I have it...but ain't gonna give that shit out...its the bane of all spam...specially since I could send like 15k to one computer and you'd have to close them all before you could do anything...


I use blackice as a firewall and it won't stop them...its nice to send them to the script kiddies on windows tho...

"You have recieved a message! From:HOAXR To:65.124.89.001
Stop it with the port probe's before I ruin your day!"

I got that exact same thing yesterday on XP. My messenger wasn't even connected. I had just finished checking out a ARS link and I spent the next hour trying to replicate it. (thinking it came from the ars tour)

Some good info here, thanks.

PS. you're right about selling an internet eraser program than way, brilliant. Sneaky bastards!

Yeah no shit, thats why I use FreeBSD

I got that fucking thing yesterday... somone was scanning/spoofing and dosing my computer! How do I disable my netsend?

Did anyone call that # and cuss them out? Is there any legal remifications we can do about it?

Yeah, and it went through my fucking firewall too!
