Guest DangerousClick Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600524 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hey, might as well list all my questions in once to become a forumer faster.1. Is it ok if I put up videos of me testing malwarebytes? and other antiviruses?2. Is it ok if I have a chart like the MRG flashtest chart that says how much an antivirus passed and failed?3. Does anybody know how to take snapshots in Vmware? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600528 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm not so sure if MBAM allows that here. You'll have to hear from them on their policies. By the way Malwarebytes' is not an antivirus.If you can't work a vm then how are you going to test Malware? There are way too many people that don't know what they are doing. I suggest not doing this until you become more experienced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DangerousClick Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600533 Share Posted September 24, 2012 1. Never said malwarebytes was a antivirus2. I am experienced with vmware, I just need to know how to take snapshots in VMplayer, I heard you can take a single snapshot. Can't do it tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff screen317 Posted September 24, 2012 Staff ID:600589 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hi DangerousClick and welcome to Malwarebytes.The confusion is with this:1. Is it ok if I put up videos of me testing malwarebytes? and other antiviruses?Saying "other antiviruses" implies that what you were talking about previously, Malwarebytes, is also an antivirus. This isn't important in the context of your question.Put up videos where? If you aren't saying that we endorse it, then I don't see any issue with fan-made videos. Someone may correct me on this point, however.In VMPlayer, clicking "Suspend" creates a "snapshot." If you want snapshots like in VMWare Server, then you'll need that instead of Player.

Firefox Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600738 Share Posted September 24, 2012 You did not specify what VMWare product you are using....In VMWare Workstation, you can simply right click on the VM Computer on the left pane and go down to Snapshot and then click on Take Snapshot...

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted September 24, 2012 Root Admin ID:600934 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Sorry but I don't have time to help with site creation, but there are a ton of great sites on the Web dedicated to showing you how to do it. Just google some sites for how to create a website (be careful of spammers though and which links you click on)As for VMware Player I don't use it myself. I use VMware Desktop 8 to do all my potentially dangerous work.Best of luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DangerousClick Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600935 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Is vmware desktop the same? But with snapshots, and is it free? no need to put every bit of your personal info? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted September 24, 2012 ID:600941 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Chris already told you how to do Snapshots and his recommendation on VMware Server.I think Ron means VMware Workstation. No it is not free. Version 9 is $250.Google and read the faqs.http://www.vmware.com/products/player/faqs.htmlIf you need something with Snapshots look at the open source VirtualBox which is free.

Guest DangerousClick Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600948 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Virtualbox gives me errors, i cannot start it. I googled it, no help.And who do you mean chris? Is screen's name chris? Or are you referring to the helpdesk worker? CW's?There is a free trial of VMworkstation, you have to put all your personal stuff tho.

DarkSnakeKobra Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600967 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Ok.How much ram do you have? 512MB ram should be enough at minimal, but the performance wouldn't be that great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DangerousClick Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600968 Share Posted September 25, 2012 That isn't my error silly It tells me about a hardware acceleration error Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DangerousClick Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600969 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Above is the virtualbox error. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600972 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Ah then that might be an issue. Hardware Acceleration increases software performance that is run directly on the CPU such as VirtualBox. Without it your pc would perform very poorly.Now for free websites there are a lot of sites that offer this such as webs, weebly and google sites. You can also get a free forum through Forumotion or Free Forums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkSnakeKobra Posted September 25, 2012 ID:600982 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Unfortunately no. If your computer doesn't support hardware acceleration then there is nothing you can do other then buy a newer computer or hardware. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
