Trojan inside mod download? (RE: ' 88 FLAK)
-
I see. I pulled all the relevant files off the Flak FTP, including the FLMM Installer on there (uploaded on there for ease-of-use), and scanned them with Avira as well as some hand-checking for possible tampering while they’ve been on the FTP, but they all look clean.
I’d make a Lancers Reactor account to look through the downloads, but that place gives me the creeps. I’ll make a fake email and all that jazz and see what I can dig up.

Done…
Both the Zip & Exe “look” clean… but i aint running em… lol…
that was for both v1.31 and the suspicious looking (2) one…Scanned with Avira… came up clean. Its been a few days now… probaly should have dll’d it
when the S**T hit the fan… sry…@ Lancer
and yes that cloak fiasco was a right doozy… “somthing” is happeneing in there & us simple
peeps are getting infected for it… and its also giving TLR a “worse” name and dragging FL with it…Not a happy camper…
-
It might not look dodgy, but if the code has been tampered with, and the virus code injected directly into the source code. I’m not sure if FLMM is open source, and I assume you’d be able to do such a thing, with the right know how.
-
It’s a lot easier to just make a fake installer which takes care of infecting you instead…
FLMM isn’t open source AFAIK.
-
Xarian, would you mind sending me the EXE and zip? I’ll run 'em on my laptop, which I’m about to wipe clean and format anyways due to an infection on it, so it doesn’t matter if it gets busted.
I’d get 'em myself, but like I said that place gives me the creeps now. =P (and I don’t want to hook up the laptop to networking due to said infection)
-
Dam… Sry fox i deleted it straight after, and now when i search for FLMM (as i did a few hours ago) there i get a
“cant find any reference” message…well… at least its gone…
-
i emailed you a copy of that on your msn account so if you see [email protected] thats me

reading things like this makes me even more glad that MU uses LS’s auto updater, to be honest i dont know why we dont just all boycott LR anyway granted i know some of us want to stick around there for the sake of new players but with SP on the microsoft site and LR not surely there arent that many players over there now.
