That sounds excellent! And your rank will change with your Experiance, right? i saw those things next to my profile

[Hunchman801]

By posting and fighting, you'll get XP, every 500 XP, you'll gain a level, and by gaining levels you'll increase your stats! But the monsters will be more dangerous

[Inaam]

Cool! And You'll be able to buy weapons and stuff with your tings right? I could try to help you with thinking up weapons and mosters and stuff if you like, i'm good at that kind of thing!

[Hunchman801]

Weapons and items are already done, and monster will be from Rayman1, 2 and 3. Anyway, if you can help making pictures...

[Inaam]

Hmm...I'll try! What shall i make a picture of?

[Hunchman801]

First download Visual Boy Advance and the Rayman Advance and Rayman 3 GBA Roms. If you've got MSN Msg, I can send them to you!

[Inaam]

hmm...ok, where can i download them from?

[Hunchman801]

I don't have links, but a Google Search should work fine

[Inaam]

ok, but i dont trust it anymore its a fraud

[Hunchman801]

Then why not to try the Rayman Search Engine?

[The Knocker]

Google is the best search engine ever

[Hunchman801]

I agree, everybody uses it.

[Inaam]

Yeah, its looks better, searches better, is esier to use - its just one class above the rest!

[skateboarder]

and... (as always the bad voice of truth) was the way that RZ was hacked.
the Santy worm uses google in fact to infect. it's called google hacking.

[Inaam]

how on earth does THAT work? actually, dont tell me....

[Hunchman801]

Could you tell me how this worm acts? And how to prevent his board from being hacked?

[skateboarder]

The worm creates a specially formulated Google search request. This request will give a list of sites running vulnerable versions of phpBB. The worm then sends a request to all sites found, which contains an exploit for the vulnerability. When the server under attack processes the exploit, the worm penetrates the site and gains control. This process is then repeated.

The worm scans all site directories, and overwrites files with the following extensions:

.asp
.htm
.jsp
.php
.phtm
.shtm

with the following text:

This site is defaced!!!

This site is defaced!!!
NeverEverNoSanity WebWorm generation

Using MSN to search for sites containing the above strings gives an extensive list of sites; evidence that Santy.a is currently causing an epidemic.

Users should note that this worm is not dangerous; it will not infect computers if users view an infected site.



The way to prevent it is to update your phpbb version to 2.0.11
versions before this one are the vulnerable ones.

[Hunchman801]

That's what I've just done!

[Inaam]

In which case, these forums are invunrable! ...until the hackers invent a way of hacking this new version too, but by then there'll be a new new version!

[Hunchman801]

If ever someone hears about a new security issue with phpBB, he must tell me about it!
