I just found 10.5 GIGS of movies on my HD

I needed to put about 700 megs of stuff on my pos the other day, and it said I was out of space (I have a new 20G hd)…

I finally had the time to search out why I was a good 10 gigs over…

Down in the WINNT/system32/temp folder was almost 11gigs of “The Godfather 2”, “BlackHawk Down” and others…

BTW I’m using W2000…

I just put this new HD in a few weeks ago… I have not <u>ever</u> used any kind of sharing software such as kazaa, or anything…

Curious…

Rev

hmm… thats weird. does anyone else use that computer?

nope…

just me…

at least I found them, and my pos is working faster again…

Rev

haha, you got free movies! must be from “God”

haha, its a present from Santa <:}

send me some of that :wink: j/k
:stuck_out_tongue:

rev’s a pirate now
:pirate:

reverandpirate lmao j/k rev

lol

I wouldn’t want to watch movies on my pos anyway… I have a larger TV 3 feet to the right anyway…

Even then, the movies there… I wouldn’t have d/l those if I were a pirate…

Guess I gotta go check my ports… see if I can remember that site… maybe abzoid will read this and post the link… wink wink…

Rev

it’s supposed to be a Varmit on a spit that kinda got away from me…

too much power…

Rev

never seen the show…

I lived the 70’s once already…

Rev

I watch a ton of TV…

I find it calms my nerves… as long as it isn’t “Mad about You” or similar…

Rev

kelso and fez are hilarious! and red… dumba$$! :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

Rev, looks like your computer was scanned for an open port - one was found and someone just hopped on and started to upload some movies and use it as a dump or a pub. Have you noticed your intenet connection being slow as of late?

no, but I have a big Phat line… 1.5Mbs… Plus, if it were at a time when I wasn’t on (when is that?), then I wouldn’t notice at all. It was a very strange place to be hidden as well…

curiouser and curiouser…

Rev

It was probably put there on purpose.

It’s one of the last places you would look for anything right? At least I know I wouldnt.

It’s just some hackers or pubbers - sounds like you need to beef up security a bit though…?

already done…

I had just put the new hd in, so I hadn’t plugged all the holes…

Rev

Phunny, but this could have happened thru my g/f computer via the home network as well…

phound that hole last eve. as I was looking at my ports…

BTW - GRC.com is a great resource for security checks…
