I'd hate for a friend to throw a party and not have anybody come. I bet I can learn a lot tonight.

Sorry guys, and gals, looks like the computer I use to do the show is infected and it's in the process of being repaired. I'll let you know if there will be a show later tonight, but as far as 4.3LXJ's interview, that will be next Wednesday.

Well after 10 hours of working on the computer, it's still down. The culprit is a piece of shit virus malware that tries to pass itself off as a real legitimate program. Of course no one wants it so they have to push it on to your computer.

I am running WinXP Pro service pack and update everything with several specifically selected items added in for good measure. I first noticed the problem when a java program came up as a warning. This came up as pictures, ads, were loading in Internet Explorer. The Microsoft Security Essentials caught it and pronounced my system clean.

That was Tuesday. Wednesday night about 6pm I get om my computer and there is a new piece of software installed, along with several memory violation errors. The malware runs specifically crafted code to cause these memory errors which allows it to access areas of memory the operating system would normally not allow it to access. Apparently this is how they got around the need for me the user to click the buttons and install the software.

The software is Whitesmoke Translation. It really would be that big of a deal but because they load a system driver as a way to keep you from removing it that driver doesn't work, so Win XP blue screens. They've added, I'm thinking, to the default drivers of "Safe Mode" so you can't even bring it up in safe mode.

I have a bad habit of not going to easy route on these things. The easy and faster route would be to reload WInXP. I wouldn't lose anything but I would have to reload service packs and updates. About 200 Mb worth of stuff, and a couple of hours. It would be computer time and not my time though.

So now I need to figure out what driver name it is, rename it, bring windows up and clean the computer.

Hope you get it running Tony. I was all set and primed ... and then ... nothing. A star was almost born, maybe next time. By the way, I was trying to log on to the podcast chat and couldn't. Is there something special I need for that?

Yeah I was hoping against hope that I would get it working in time.

Just go to ustream.tv and sign up for an account. I guess I need to walk through doing that so I can describe it here. I set mine up almost a year ago.

If next Wednesday doesn't work for you no problem, just let me know if we need to schedule it for another time. I am really sorry about the problem. If I had a MAC the show would have gone on because at 7.3% of the market it just isn't worth the hackers time to try and infect it. :smiley-laughing021:
