Camoflagued Mp3s Contain A Backdoor Beware
View this Thread in Original format

WATCH OUT! That camoflague thing you need to decode installs backdoors on your system EVERYTIME YOU PLAY HIS TRACKS.

Also note, that it CANNOT BE DELETED unless you go into the recovery console.

It installs a bunch of executables in your winnt/system32 directory and then runs them in the background.

I was wondering where the I was getting these from as I wasn't even downloading anything, then I remembered the camoflague thing (Which i was very suspicious of in the first place). Then I decided to "test" my theory, surely shortly after I placed one of his reconstructions (Ocean Lab - Beautiful (Signum Remix) I got the same files copied!!

Now this MAY NOT be his fault but rather the utility he was using to encode, nevertheless DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

ADMINS: Take care of business.

Can you please explain how to fix this?

Thanks in advance!!

Hmm didnt know bout that, arg gonna look on my own pc aswell then, thanks for mentioning it.

My big excuses for it, I tried it a week myself (after I saw someone used it) it seemed to work ok, so I decided to use it so files wouldnt get deleted from a server that fast..

Thanks again for the info, I took all the files offline aswell.

Yeah its that program, from the outside it just looks like a jpg-file, you can even view the picture. The only thing that you can't camouflage is that its a picture of 10mb for example :p
Yeah I hope the serverbots will ignore these files aswell :) Can't wait till Dawn finished it!
Btw the 'funny' thing is music-eternity is using this camouflage software for their mp3sharing for some time allrdy..

Oh, the sly bastard even corrupts your Ad-Aware installation... :whip:

(I mean the backdoor, not DanceAddict ;) )

I got the reconstruction of Albinoni from the hub.. does that mean there's no problem, right? is the mp3 files in itself safe?
Project T
yea the mp3s are safe as houses, its just the camoflague business thats dodgy, so your safe gettin them off the hub
Project T
im gonna copy this into a couple other relevant forums aswell coz i think its worth noting, changed the title aswell so there was no adverse danceaddict publicity as we couldnt be havin that could we :)

obs
seems okay for me in 98se. i've checked my registry in the usual places and there are no entries in the RUN sections.


WATCH OUT! That camoflague thing you need to decode installs backdoors on your system EVERYTIME YOU PLAY HIS TRACKS.

what do you mean "everytime you play his tracks"? i only use camouflage to uncamouflage/extract the mp3 from the main file, not to play any tracks.
