cant agree more of the last part that u just mentioned *thumbs up*

however, crack and virus are not equal, they are not the same thing.

Crack and viruses are not the same things but they're both bad

been sticking with eset 32 2.7 trial version and havent got any problem ,so far.

so u wan free stuff and problem free ?

Cracks are not viruses. True. But Anti-Virus Companies ALWAYS Flag them as viruses of some sort. Sometimes even Trojan Horses.

It is up to the user to know the truth and the semi-truths. AND, this type of users are at the minimum quite well versed in many computer aspects. Amateurs are definitely out of the topic.

I will say no further.

~Cheers!

nicely said ^^

This thread should be closed.

PIRATES TALK!!

Cmon-lah, anti-virus is so cheap nowadays, RM10 can get license from Garage Sales for Karsperksy. Cannot afford RM10 a year?? Coffee Bean pun tak cukup. You buy blardy pirated DVD also RM15!!!!

I've bought a retail package 3 user license(KIS) for RM80 the other day, works out to be RM27+ per PC per year. A very reasonable fee to keep my PCs safe for a year....and knows that u are paying the right people...not the blonde hair samseng in digital mall...

no need antivirus, windows firewall will do just find.

waa...so confident?

u r using \XP or Vista?
Even with AVG av , there are some viruses running.
For example, I found out Ravmond.exe run without being detected .

confident lies within experience. and i can sense amateur-isme in your post.

Thread closed pls?

Actually, what you said is quite true. RM10 for Ori Kapersky Antivirus but RM15 for Fake Kaspersky Antivirus that MAY get blacklisted in the future.

I used to do until until my friend plugged his dumb-tard thumbdrive into my computer and I got infected with some sort of "autorun" virus. Before that, I was very careful. Now, a days I never let any dumb-fu*k plug any "Plug n Play" devices into my computer.

Depends, most of them are, especially the ones which are downloaded from some Warez of P2P.

To understand the link better, try looking for this article on 'Underground Digital Economy' I can't remember the exact title. The paper was also presented at a local security conference some years back. In the article, it mentions the existence of RBN (Russian Business Network), Hong Kong triads etc.

There's a business relationship between these 2, triads...mafia's and coders. These triads pays the coders to create the 'crack softwares' and sell them or put it on the web.

When it is installed, run in your system, the malware will hunt for, well, bank accounts,credit cards anything and report back to the coders.

The Cyber Security Agency has a team to study these malwares, among them who always at security seminars and present his finding is Yomud.

Yeah..i m using Nod Smart antivirus with cracked serial key..no problem

You guys should start buying licensed AV instead of downloading or buying cracked ones.

I always read or here...like the one above 'no problem', but let it be known, there's no such thing as a free lunch, your system may been, fine...ok.

Making your PC into a zombie is an money stream for them, and its big business.

There are few outcomes..

1. They will detect and block you from updating
2. Your system becomes compromise as a result of malware which is hidden inside the AV, this usually happens from AV downloaded from warez sites.

If you can afford to buy a computer, you can surely afford to buy an AV software or even download a free-version.

And your proud of it =

Thumbs up for the part the blonde hair samseng....what's more they might not even bother if the stuff you bought can't work....they might scold you for it

er you didn't ask ur fren to press shift before inserting?

i think he is lying to you. Because alot of us never had such issue
