Re: hijackthis.exe...
No,
Obviously Bill Castner either cannot see straight, or chose to distort my
posts right from the start, with a hostile attitude from getgo. Quite why
eludes me.
I collected Hijackthis.exe v2.02 from aumha.org v2.0.2 (file version
2.0.0.2), and just for something to do really, submitted it to the CLS's at
VirusTotal.com, where three of them, didn't like it. This remains fact.
I then submitted an older version of HJT from my PC where only one CLS's
didn't like it. That also remains fact. All of that was accurately
conveyed in my posts, albeit a little jumbled up.
He obviously didn't want to make any constructive comment on that, (which I
thought would have been an interesting topic), but, immediately launched
into a torrent of vitriol ...something like. "...you've publicly accused
aumha of distributing infected software..."
It appears that he was simply unable read something as it was literally and
honestly intended whilst at the same time making wildly fictitious, and
almost abusive assumptions.
I deleted what I could from my posts, and will not go there again, it's
simply not worth wasting breath in there, or on him !
regards, Richard
