Yes Dave, Apart from my test PC virus/malware protection, whenever there is a change in an executable or dll I run them through an online scanner (20MB file limit) here http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/ It runs the submitted file through 19 different scanners, with the occasional false-positive on one or two. Results of the scans are shared with the anti-virus companies. The site generates a permalink for each file that allows you to distribute the scanning results to whomever. Just ran the 3 executables through the site Cluster.exe http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/7142b3c4c3e3076d5f55aa826a272678a67d1cbb PSKReporter.exe http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/b8e275b738f1634bcc24fa081b1a83eb27e1289c ROS v4.8.4 Beta.exe http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/e6e6238fb976a46d4db4dae564d59c5f2757ab73 de Laurie, VK3AMA On 25/07/2010 1:29 PM, Dave AA6YQ wrote: Has anyone checked to see whether the ROS code contains a keylogger, trojans, or a rootkit? 73, Dave, AA6YQ

Laurie, Then why don't they filter it at the cluster? Makes more sence, if you ask me. Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.

A safety pin on a gun, doesn't make the gun less destructive Sigi... Right but prevents loosing a shot by accident while the gun is in your pocket There are still users that do not know what is the soft doing in the background as not all users read the news (this group and others) If every user switches the function off it is like jose never programmed it He uses the same triggers for the psk reporter page (map view) So why not just switch spots off and enjoy the nice view on the map We can use the programmed (hardcoded) clusters for sending INTERRESTING spots by hand So just use what we have with the needed options I do not like that joses soft is spamming the clusters As some sysops do not forward ros spots anymore jose has to change them in every new version If spots were set to off nobody would be angry about some hand spotted calls The massive flooding (about 20 + spot per hour) is the problem So the safety pin is fine But in a new installed version the pin is set to unsafe Greetz Sigi

Iin the tab skets click on cluster There you can send spots manually and switch off the autospotting I let the newest version run for a few hours not autospots were sent when switch was off You can send autogenerated and in downloaded newest version the switch is set normally to on . so as the users do not switch it off (or using old version) there is the reason for the soft still sending spots So all users should manually switch that function off ! ! ! Psk reporter sends to the map Cluster sends to telnet Ros sends on air and the emails via gmail As the autospot can now be switched off we have what we wanted .. What about an autospot configurable by user (only send spots more than xy km distance) Hope you find that switch hi hi Greetz Sigi Dg9bfc
Re: AW: AW: [digitalradio] ROS v 4.8.X not spamming cluster
Aha, this switch was not implemented in the version 4.8.2 that I was testing. la5vna Steinar On 24.07.2010 16:23, Siegfried Jackstien wrote: Iin the tab skets click on cluster There you can send spots manually and switch off the autospotting I let the newest version run for a few hours not autospots were sent when switch was off You can send autogenerated and in downloaded newest version the switch is set normally to on . so as the users do not switch it off (or using old version) there is the reason for the soft still sending spots So all users should manually switch that function off ! ! !

Glad i could help Iif you do NOT use cat the autogenerated spots on 20m are sent as 14000 . so not correct But when sending by hand qrg is correct I asked jose if he can solve that . that a user without can do not send wrong qrg . maybe he will find a solution for that As we have now the autoreport to pskreporter we do not need the autospots anymore (but jose thinks it is still needed) So every user should switch that off and spot only by hand Greetz sigi
Re: AW: AW: AW: [digitalradio] ROS v 4.8.X not spamming cluster
Hi Sigi, Jose uses Cluster Auto-Spots to advertise his software. The more spots, the more it appears to be a popular mode to the uninformed Cluster User. Jose, clearly doesn't understand the Ham/Cluster culture. Maybe we can change his attitude by passing on these concerns to his Beta-Tester who might be better placed to change his mind. I know who the Beta-Tester is, email me privately and I will pass on the info (no it is not me, Hi) de Laurie, VK3AMA On 25/07/2010 5:50 AM, Siegfried Jackstien wrote: As we have now the autoreport to pskreporter we do not need the autospots anymore (but jose thinks it is still needed)

Lauri, Why is it, that only a handful of amateurs seem to be concerned about this? If people said we do not use the program until this is fixed, I am sure it would get fixed in an hurry. 73 Rein W6SZ -Original Message- From: Laurie, VK3AMA group...@vkdxer.com Sent: Jul 24, 2010 6:44 PM To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: AW: AW: AW: [digitalradio] ROS v 4.8.X not spamming cluster Hi Sigi, Jose uses Cluster Auto-Spots to advertise his software.
