There is a new trojan horse in town, known as the Backdoor Orifice Trojan (BO). This trojan, meant as a server for a network, allows people on the net to control your computer from wherever they are in the world using an IP (Internet Protocal) connection.. Using a program like NetBus, Master's Paradise, or something similiar. Some symptoms of this is a strange message which pops up out of no where. Another symptom is the loss of control of the mouse. There is an antidote for this though. To get it look in the files section and download BOAntidote.exe. More information on the BO Trojan will be posted soon.

the worlds most famous interenet messaging program, is not planning to make users pay for the service. Though there are messages floating around the server saying they must. There are two reason why this is false. 1) ICQ is still in beta stages. 2) If the Mirabilis wanted people to pay, they would send a system message, not a message with an imbedded program (impossible anyways). My ICQ number is 975757 if you wish to contact me that way.

BIG "D" MONTH. The files section is hosting a Big Defense lock up for the next month. We decided now would be a good time to work on the defenses of your computer, with the coming of the Backdoor Orifice trojan, and CIH virus. This section will now contain links to Freeware Firewalls, Nuke detectors, Port Listeners, Connection Tests, and patches for bugs in Windows 95/Windows NT. Though always, the best defense is a good warry mind, and the subtle yet affective, offense.
