Dammit, we're never going to find out how the file actually works, hahahah!

Captain,

Man, you're quick, haha!

I tried creating that file myself, but it won't work on my machine either.

Clicked the file, connected to the network, opened the browser, pasted the link, hit "FREE"...

Nothing. 80 seconds wasted. Maybe try performing this whole sequence in a different order?

ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
exit
then save it to your desktop named IP reset with a .bat extension (IP reset.bat)
You'll need to disconnect from the network briefly, run the file, and then reconnect. It only takes about ten seconds, so there's no real wait...

Do you mean using an editor? You just put this in the editor(ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew) and save it as a .bat with this name: IP.reset.bat?

Sometimes a change is necessary; it performs better and leaves you much more satisfied.

McAfee Internet Security 2007 : found it!

Norton - failed to detect
NOD - failed to detect
Online scan - detected
McAfee - detected

What happened to Spybot, Bitdefender, Norton, and everyone else?!

Alright, I misspoke then; certain anti-virus programs are capable of detecting everything.
Run scans with every single tool you own!

@fadedorca66/">@@fadedorca66, did you actually finish scanning with that software of yours?

William Myers7 said:I didn't even unpack the file, I just previewed the compressed folder! Besides, the software finds infected files anyway because I enabled that setting!
So, if you don't mind me asking—did you create these viruses yourself, or what...?

You can unpack that archive whenever you like, and as for the viruses, they are certainly not my creation!

It’s a good start, you’ve broken the ice. Now let’s wait for the others to chime in with their results using different programs, then we'll see where we actually stand...

I have uploaded a small, contaminated .rar file here. It contains a few viruses and worms, though they aren't dangerous until you actually run the .exe file and wake them up.
Everyone uses some kind of anti-virus software—some people use one brand, others use another, some are high-end while others are pretty mediocre.

If you're interested, download this file and run it through your own anti-virus. Let's see who catches what and which specific programs actually work. I'm sure you're just as curious as I am about how well our software really protects us.
