[Freedos-devel] Kaspersky antivirus anybody?

2004-09-01 Thread Michael Devore
Anyone here taken a look at bug 1822 in Bugzilla about Kaspersky anti-virus 
and downloaded the files?  I would, but I'm rather allergic to downloading 
unknown files from anonymous .ru domains, given their overall 
reputation.  The official Kapersky site doesn't seem to list that version.

If anyone has already tried it and verified the the problem without their 
disk getting eaten, could you send me a copy, maybe as a ZIP so I don't 
have to track down an unRAR'er?

Hi Michael,

anti-virus and downloaded the files?  I would, but I'm rather allergic

What is the overall reputation of the anonymous Russian domains? I can 
only say that I think that the Russians are the best in everything they do 
and very much respect them. See for example their famous hardware analysis 
site http://www.ixbt.com - one of the most reputable sites of that kind. 
There is an English version of that site at http://www.digit-life.com

As the great Russian poet Tyutchev has written,
   
   


(try to translate the above poetry in your favourite machine translation 
engine ;-)

don't have to track down an unRAR'er?
Just verified it and as you see, I'm still alive :) So, please go ahead 
and download KAVDOS32.RAR. You don't need any virus definition files. It 
will complain it doesn't find their list and exit - cleanly in MS-DOS and 
hanging the system in FreeDOS. As to UNRAR 2.0, please find it on my site:

Good luck!

Hello Luchezar,


 What is the overall reputation of the anonymous Russian domains? I can
 only say that I think that the Russians are the best in everything they do

the best ?
they certainly have made some good software (and other things)

they also host the best 'crack found for comercial program xyz'
they also host the best 'crack found for comercial program xyz'

 and very much respect them.

well - the bulgarians have some problems understanding licensing ;)

but that most criminal activity - like phishing for credit card
information - is also located on russian servers (at least servers
with .ru domains) doesn't exactly raise the general reputation for
russian servers.

Hi Michael and Tom,
Lawless, in a word.  .ru sites are infamous for hosting hacks, cracks, 
phreaks, passwords, net redirects, phishing, and free versions of 
commercial software -- noticeably more prevalent than in the Americas, 
Oceania, or most of Europe.  Given that I used to make a living off of 
copyrighted software; believe in the peaceful coexistence of proprietary 
plus open source plus truly free software together; and have 
professionally known a few people you think must be criminals by virtue 
of the fact that their total net worth was $999,999 + $n where n  0, we 
come from very different perspectives on the entire matter.
Yes, and despite this, we're working together on FreeDOS! Isn't that 
remarkable? ;-)

well - the bulgarians have some problems understanding licensing ;)
Not all Bulgarians. Some have found where the crayfishes spend the 
winter (as we say here), like the Micro$0ft representative in Bulgaria 
Theodor Milev :-(

but that most criminal activity - like phishing for credit card 
information - is also located on russian servers (at least servers with 
.ru domains) doesn't exactly raise the general reputation for russian 
servers.
...in the eyes of the Western world.
Two different worlds, but still working together for FreeDOS - isn't that 
great! ;-)

Regards,
Lucho
