I think they have Simple File Verification (CRC32 checksum) and that's about it.

Anyone else agree we should ban all instances of IdolEyes787 on the site as well? :shifty:

Wouldn't we be just doing him a favor? :dave:
Hypothetically, if it happened, I'd request sole privilege of inviting him back every day.

A CRC32 checksum is not unique to a single file, and can be spoofed. I don't know how easy it would be for someone to create a virus with the same CRC value as another file (I'm guessing not easy) but injecting random data into a file to while keeping the same CRC value, I believe can easily be done, and has been done on older P2P networks that used CRC32 for verification.
So if you're going to use a checksum for file verification, why not use a more modern, secure one? (or maybe even include both, for the benefit of people with ancient computers)

That's the long version for "that's about it".
9 yay, 0 nay, that's a unanimous supreme court justice decision. So, like, would it be worth anybody's time to set something in place that automatically changes every instance of aiseesoft to imafag? Switching notes, I thought I read there's a way in vB to auto delete posts with certain keywords based on weight or something.
That individual or group of people that keep spamming up the Movies & TV forum with rapidgator et al. links shoots for 50 threads at a time. I'm honing on this with unusual attention since I don't like it when the same people keep fucking up my rhythm.

Haven't seen an adseesoft post in a short while, they on break or is there a special new filter?
Also, the referral link posts seem to be heating up like free spoons at a heroin test kitchen.
rapidgator and hitfile and what not.

When there's no staff online, they post them like a minigun shoots bullets :smilie4:

This latest raft of spambots are all operating on a similar timeframe as well as it seems similar coding. They appear between 10:00a.m. 2:00p.m. G.M.T. so roughly a four hour window. I am +12 G.M.T. so it is easy to correlate.

Another carpet-bombing, this time an hour or two earlier than usual.
