Just to clarify things here, pebuilder (Including UBCD4WIN) Requires an Windows XP SP1 (or higher) setup CD, or Windows 2k3 (any service pack level) to build the bartpe ISO file which is bootable from a CD, Thumbdrive or network share depending on how you configure it. You CAN build your bartpe on a running Vista\Win7 System with no problem at all, providing you do have the required source CD. In this situation, a linux build is a good choice because all you have to do is download and burn the ISO, which is easier to do when your already trying to deal with a major computer problem.

I'm sure someone will get to you soon, but you should check your junk email folder to make sure the automated email is not there.

I never got past the first paragraph of their TOS Agreement... In short: We can change this entire TOS agreement, without telling you and once you agree to any version of it, you agree to all future versions of it. Almost as poorly thought out as that cash for clunkers gov site with the DOD's standard network EULA.

Thats the DOD's standard EULA used on all government computer networks. Doesn't make it any less creepy though to think that if this were one of those programs you blindly clicked "I Agree" on, and found out latter that you just gave away all freedom and privacy related to your web usage. Not impressed at all.

Yeah, I thought "Well, everything ends up on youtube..." Sheep PONG was my favorite part, but the mona lisa shows how much free time they had.

I have spybot installed and active, plus the hosts file immunization and had no trouble watching the video. It's a very cleaver use of led lights on sheep where the imitate things like PONG with the sheep. EDIT: Here's the same video on youtube.

A friend forwarded this email to me today, and this is something you guys have just gotta see.

This kind of thing really annoys me, so I probably did not read every word of your post the first time around. The point is that at least now we know he has been warned to make sure the machine is clean and safe to use, so it's out of our hands unless he posts for help from the Staff here. PS: I'm not "Staff" either but "I've been there and seen that", if you know what I mean.

OOPS, sorry for the confusion. Please consider having these guys check to make sure your system was not compromised by the remote session with botnurse.

If he does not post in a reasonable amount of time, someone from the staff should try to contact her to make sure she realizes the danger of what happened. I really hate it when people are preyed on by vultures like this.

@Marcin Teasers look great, BUT... White stays white for about 5 minutes. Black, Red and Green should be options, which means you need to offset your design to allow for dark color background. A black hat would have to find it's way here as well. Certainly a fantastic idea and I'm also into graphic arts and airbrushing since I was 14, so some brainstorming might be a good thing. My mind always reads "Malware Bites", like as in teeth on a mad dog. MBAM would be the rabies shot. I may have to mok something on canvas.

No one else has brought this up, so I will. By allowing them remote access to your computer, anything and everything on it could have been compromised. Any credit card info on the machine now needs to be issued new cards and there is also the chance that while he was in control of your PC he could have installed a rootkit or keylogger that collects and sends back information to any location he has chosen. What you need to do now is allow the real maywarebytes team a chance to make sure your machine is still safe to use. This forum has the best support base I've even seen, and I've been working with PC's for over 25 years. Nothing will be done FOR YOU and there is never a remote connection made. You should ask for help and the mbam team here will tell you exactly what programs to download and install to make sure there is no malicious software on your machine, personally I'm worried that he may have setup a rootkit or keyloger which means none of your data will be safe for much longer.

Apparently Dave is here.

"Dave's not here."

I was referring to the search engine spiders. Example: Google.com is a member of 911cd.net and ubcd4win.com, you wont find either in the members list but you see the spiders crawling through 911cd.net all the time. We have them set to a group that does not show in the online list at ubcd4win.com. Spam Bots are a different story all together.

I do not know where you get your information from, but there is no patch or unofficial version at UBCD4WIN. The wheels are turning, but it's going to take some patience from everyone. EDIT: He is referring to the 1.39 hotfix version.

That's ALMOST as cryptic as the signature being used.

Most forums have a special group for these bots where they are not shown in the user list. The forum software has a setting (Somewhere) to hide these domain users from the online list.

This is my favorite part... The support offered by Malware Bytes is awesome, and has got to be the best I've seen in a very long time, so "Paying Attention" to forums and helping users remove all sorts of malicious software is certainly what has fueled this "meteoric rise" to the top of this market. I like the fact that every time new definitions are added to the database it is immediately available to the end user.No one should ever have to wait 24 hours for the next update. This is good, but should be followed by a public apology from the CEO of Emsisoft.Honestly, this is more then likely going to boost your market share, not diminish it.

Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie. 2nd would be Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia And just in case you have not seen it, they actually make one that is Cherry Garcia & Chocolate Fudge Brownie swirled together!

House is crazy, that woman was nuts.

Found a good deal on ebay and just got seasons 1-4 in the mail a little while ago, so now I get to play catch up. I've seen the first half of the 5th season and liked them enough to order the entire series, hopefully they will release season 5 before too long. Oh, that inhaler thing was just nuts, and these people DO EXIST in real life. You would be amazed at some of the crazy things I've seen people do in the last 20 years.

@lazydave46 Any moderator could have easily moved the topic, now we have 2 and you have still not given enough information, so I'm going to quote myself and ask again... If you want help, you need to answer all of the above questions.

The scary part is that they probably did not have to make that part up. I've only seen three episodes of House so far, watched them on HULU a couple months ago and they were great. Have been looking for a good deal on the set of DVD's so I can start at the beginning and watch the whole thing, but for the price it looks like I'll have to wait untill they release the 5th season because the set of 1-5 is listed less then the first 4 seasons would cost together. If anyone finds a good deal on this set of DVD's please let me know.

Interesting.... I don't even have a .\USERS\ALL USERS folder with Vista64 ultimate (UAC DISABLED) Could be a mapped location for compatibility with programs designed around XP. Check something for me, go to C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and create a new txt file of any name you like, then go to C:\Users\All Users\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and see if the file you just created exists. I'm betting you will find it there, thus the second location is mapped or joined by the OS, just like they do with the registry.
