    Attention::Zombie:: Bot:: Take a Minute & Read

    It has been estimated that up to one quarter of all
    personal computers connected to the internet may be part of a botnet.

    Ever heard of bots . . ? ? this is not for Experts..
    [ so dont post bla,bla crap . .] I saw many hackers & botnet admin's in Elakiri
    :rofl:

    ok, What is a Bot .? also known as zombie
    Basically, a botnet is a mass number of PC's infected with a trojan or worm or whatever bla bla code ..
    that allows the hacker to remotely control the PC . .


    Thz is what a hacker says about bot's

    I believe botnets and botnet behavior have evolved to such a point of
    sophistication that it won't be easy to detect less wellknown botnets.
    Moreever, botnets are often heavily modded, and thus,
    changing its .. and making it harder for Antivirus companies to detect.
    There is also much debate about how Antivirus's classify botnet distributed malware,
    due to Antivirus ignoring the "botnet" part. Also,
    botnets are now increasingly sold and trafficked within the underground economy.


    Identifying A 'Zombie/ Bote'd Computer [simple Methods]

    If you notice anything odd, like your computer seems to slow down or crash
    for no apparent reason, you might suspect that there is some malware running
    in the background causing a problem. There are other reasons for symptoms
    like those as well though. Scan your computer with current versions of
    anti-virus and anti-spyware software to detect any known malware.
    even If those scans don't find anything, you might still be infected . .


    Protecting Your Computer From 'Bots

    run anti-virus / anti-spyware software on your computer.
    keep your operating system and applications patched against known vulnerabilities
    use a personal firewall program of some sort to shield your computer from unauthorized access.
