Is you into trains ?

Kansai Teens Arrested for Love Hotel Escape

[ URL removed ]
A pair of Kansai high school lovers have been arrested after they climbed out of the second floor window of a love hotel room and ran off without paying their bill.

They were caught hiding in the garden of a home near the hotel.

They had money on them, but not enough to pay the bill.

Sick of talking about cars, fish and radiation...

I'm sorry about that. My anti-virus software gave no indication of anything being untoward. I certainly didn't post the link purposely to spread malware.

Er, how can I get rid of it? What sort of malware am I looking for?

The site is run by a (kinda) mainstream Japanese newspaper (Sankei), so I assumed it would be OK....this is, after all, safety cuntry.

My humblest apologies to all.

[ChargerCarl]

Mine didn't give any indication either.

I'm hoping he was just fucking with us.

It installed rogueware called "MS Removal Tool" on my very old computer. Better upgrade...

Cheers! Thanks for letting us know.

Adblock plus and noscript on firefox can help protect you from a lot of javascript and flash threats from dangerous. Avast Antivirus and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware can help you clear out an infection. Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to weaken the malware, and then schedule a boot-time scan by Avast Antivirus. Running adblock plus and noscript on firefox should help protect you from future infections. Good luck.
Edit: All of these are free, and I'm not trying to sell something.

Is paying afterwards a kansai thing? in kanto i always had to pay for love hotels up front when checking in...

No. There are plenty of Kanto LH's where you pay after you come, so to speak...

Just depends on the hotel. One place in Saitama I went to basically locked you in the room with payment machine and you couldn't get out without paying...wonder how many people would perish if that place ever got hit by a fire!

Seen that too, there's a bill payment slot by the front door....didn't like that feature too much.

I'd also recommend sandboxie for a sandboxed process environment:

Calm down. It was a response to a previous post regarding plugins you can use to help secure your browser.

While I admire your fanaticism for open source, as someone who works in the sec industry, I stand by my recommendation.

good for you... i'll stick to vmware with a snapshoted thor live distro over something promoted like this:

http://www.sandboxie.com/index.php?ExternalLinks

with certainly also some late night infomercial with Chuck Norris...

Sanboxing a software to run on a windows host is technically insane and just good at giving users a false sense of security. It's like putting latex glove before going to swim naked in a pool of vomit from ebola patients.

You've just made assertions without providing any evidence. If you don't trust sandboxie, don't install it. Software downloaded from an untrusted source may contain malware, I'll not argue with you there. But where did you get that VM binary? Where did you get thor? Can you really trust that signature, or that MD5 sum, assuming you even bothered to check? Even those measures can be defeated. You take risks when you use computers and you do your best to mitigate those risks. Sandboxie is a program to help you mitigate the risks. By the way, the idea that open source is more secure than closed source is perhaps giving you a false sense of security, because, as we know, open source projects *never* have security vulnerabilities.

You're promoting a safety shareware product that is advertised the same manner as magic carpet cleaners from late night infomercial. Who's apparent track record from various security forum appear to be below average. Software to be used on the shittiest OS safety-wyse on this planet and you are bold enough to lecture me on the illusion of safety coming from open source software ?

If a binary and or MD5 hash couple is compromised it's usually announced quite fast especially for paranoid live distro. It's not because there is sometimes breach in linux that you can lower it to the steamy pile of shit that is windows with its twice a week 0-day exploit.

It's not to me to prove anything. It's to you to go beyond the arm flexing "trust me dat' shit iz good" which is just one more bullshit floating around this software.

I maintain that linux+vmware+snapshotted anonymizing live distro beat the crap out of windows-whatever + the shareware of the month

[kino]

Let's take your points in reverse order:

I maintain that linux+vmware+snapshotted anonymizing live distro beat the crap out of windows-whatever + the shareware of the month

Irrelevant to the conversation. I'm not comparing the security of Linux vs. Windows. I'm telling you about software that can reduce your exposure to malware on Windows. Please stay on topic. Although I did enjoy that not-so-subtle attempt to turn this into an OS flame war. Nice try.

It's not to me to prove anything. It's to you to go beyond the arm flexing "trust me dat' shit iz good" which is just one more bullshit floating around this software.

Did you personally assess every binary installed on your Linux distro for security vulnerabilities? Did you review every single line of code? No, of course not. So stop the holier than thou act. You use untrusted software day in and day out.

If a binary and or MD5 hash couple is compromised it's usually announced quite fast especially for paranoid live distro.

First of all, regarding the announcement, it may be noticed quickly, or it may not be noticed at all. You are talking about a live distribution, which presumably contains many other packages from a variety of sources. Even if the organization responsible for distributing the distro is not compromised, they may bundle malware into the package unintentionally. Or, someone at the organization may just decide to go rogue and screw all of their loyal users.

The point was that even if you take precautions, you might still get burned. That is why we recommend a defense-in-depth strategy, hence the recommendation to use a sandbox. Also, I'm not just talking about the live distro you apparently obsess about. You use software all the time that you took from untrusted sources (hint: all the software pre-installed on your live distro!). Forget about malware, even your run of the mill security exploit can have devastating consequences. Ever use wireless? Guess what, some wireless drivers are coded insecurely and can be exploited to execute code on victim machines. Did you personally review the security of your wireless driver? No, even if you had the skills, I imagine you didn't.

Software to be used on the shittiest OS safety-wyse on this planet and you are bold enough to lecture me on the illusion of safety coming from open source software ?

Great. A fucking fanboy. Your type gets so tiring. Listen, in the real world, people often use more than one OS. Enterprise networking environments are heterogeneous. My advice was directed at people who use Windows and might welcome a new method for securing their systems. I wasn't shitting all over your favorite operating system, so chill out.

Besides, even if you are VMing your Windows machine, you still need to secure guest machine.

You're promoting a safety shareware product that is advertised the same manner as magic carpet cleaners from late night infomercial. Who's apparent track record from various security forum appear to be below average.

The correct word is "whose". It is clear that you don't want to install it. I get that. But try to stick to the evidence. The only reason you have to disparage it is an irrational hatred for Windows and a dislike for the various accolades it has received.
