That sucks.. guess it is time for a new bare bones kit.. I have tried to replace a CPU and ended up ruining it. So I have been going with mobos with a cpu allready installed and box, everything from there i can install except for of course a water cooling system. Maybe if i can get my hands on another old box then i will try to replace the cpu again, dont really want to ruin my current one by mistake
It's pretty hard to mess up a CPU install on any semi-modern installation. Take the old one out, drop the new one in; it only fits one way so don't force it, just let it fall in. And that mobo has 4 gigabit lan ports... the fuck?

Wicked PC, outdated in 6 months.

@digip: Enough stuff in your quick launch? Lol.

Once again it is time for this thread, so post your desktop(s).
Fresh Win7 install on my desktop. Haven't redone my laptop since last month so I'll just post that later...

Ignore the poor phone quality...
How can you deny sidewayscat?

OpenBox. Sometimes xmonad. Sometimes awesome-wm. Sometimes dwm. None of these are on your list though. And I realize these are technically WMs and not DEs, but most people don't use them in combination with any other DE.

VPN to your house first... or use some other proxy.

They should just check the user agent a load a OS specific page :-)
You would think they would, but they don't. I run XP sometimes and to me it's still super obvious when things like this show up.

Cat without a doubt, they like to just chill on your desk/lap/keyboard.

Surely a rootkit needs to talk to home to be any use, I mean I could smuggle a midget into someones house, but if the midget can't report back to me the intel he recovers is useless. Windows is used by pretty much every goverment on the planet, can you imagine the Indian or Chinese goverment not making a scene if they found out Windows was leaking data to the CIA?
Thank you.

Grew up on AMD, love them <3

I've never heard of any real success stories, only that it costs way more than it should. Imo you would be better of getting as many certs as possible since they actually prove that you know stuff, not that you passed some course at a trade school.

Tbh it's pretty old software, but I never really had any use for it :/

"if you know anything about your system and network" thats the problem. Dude, the guy whose nickname is the"nasa hacker" got access to nasa's system for more than A YEAR, did they really know their system? hell no. I do knot you have to compromise a system in order to hide packets, that is my point. How can you make sure, windows don;t have rootkits for your window system, out of the box?? It is like the Chinese routers report a while back. There was an article saying that the U.S. was blaming China for installing backdoors in routers that they exported to the U.S. M$ don;t have to compromise your system after you get it, cause they can do it even after start selling their software, thats the problem with close source stuff.
Ya see there, that red box? It can see ALL of the packets to and from the Windows box. You can't hide packets. And the fuck are you talking about you don't have to compromise a system to hide the packets? Of course you do or else you could see them with wireshark or any other utility like it.
And as far as Gary McKinnon goes, yes, he hacked NASA, and guess what, he got caught. The only reason he didn't get caught sooner was because of some particularily dumb employees at NASA who obviously didn't know their systems. Also, it was back in 2001 and earlier when system-level bugs were quite common; today, system level bugs are quite rare.

About the guy that said something about rogue packets. Come on man, even federal agencies have a real hard time to find out who is hacking their systems, what makes you think you could see whether microsoft is hacking your system or not. microsoft might be crafting packets everytime you access the internet and you might not even know it. We are talking about professionals that have a higher computer and programming education and skills that we all together. Than you know stuff about security does not means you know it all, they have better chances to fool us cause they know more about this stuff whether i like it or not, and they have windows source to make any changes they want.
*sigh* YOU CAN'T HIDE PACKETS FROM BOXES THAT AREN'T COMPROMISED. Sorry, but I do believe that the caps was necessary since you won't listen to simple logic. Federal agencies (much like anyone who gets hacked) will have a hard time finding out who did it because of proxies, VPNs, etc. but if you know anything about your system and network it won't be hard to discover that it has been compromised.
Im up for the riots.Im paranoid.
And, their gonna get you man.
lol
I am also up for riots but tbh 2 people won't be able to do anything :/

Death metal?
Hope theres a mosh pit!
Altough I'm not really a fan of death metal, I know it's physically impossible for there to be a cannibal corpse show without a pit.

char image[255]; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { ... strcpy(image, argv[1]); ... }Oh hai there buffer overflow :3 ( I know I'm a month late lmao)

@HALEN666: Rootkit or not, other boxes on the network would still see the rogue packets ;p And as far as Windows having 0days as backdoors: no. A system-level 0day is worth tens of thousands (if not more) of dollars and when discovered (they all get found eventually) Microsoft has no choice but to patch them, thus making 0days in their own systems an incredibly inefficient and unrealiable method of backdooring.
@Wetwork: Again, even if the router / switch companies were controlled by the government, when I put my computer inbetween it and the internet that runs only open source code that I've reviewed, the rogue packets would be exposed.
Anyways, privacy no longer really exists (this is the sad truth that our new age of telecommuncations has brought us). The fact that our world has come to terms with this fact is what really saddens me; personally I want riots in the streets until proper privacy is restored but we all know that won't happen because the new technologies have made our lives so easy that we complacently accept whatever laws our governments bestow upon us. Yayyy for false democracy. (Again, everything written here is simply my opinion... except for the backdoor stuff, it simply can't work.)

First, wow you are paranoid. I mean, I am unsettled at the amount of information that the government can have on me any time they want simply because I always have my phone on me, etc., but you're taking this to a whole new level. First, there's a few things wrong with your theory about backdoors on every build of Windows since 95; in order for the computers to be remotely accessed there would need to be an open port waiting for a connection, but there isn't and if you think it's a reverse-connection then surely somebody would have noticed the rogue packets and exposed them. And in my opinion, Microsoft has been playing nice with the open source community lately because it creates good publicity for them.
Only my opinion, but meh.

Of course they should watch it. Whether you like the current president or not, it's always a good thing to know what he/she is trying to do for the country.

Neat linux , copy program

Would be nice if it was integrated with most distros, I hate how cp & mv have no status indications at all.
