After pondering it a bit, i thought of another thing: People that 'overdo
it' in their
description such as '*specialized* web browser' and '*super-*virus'
can't be
trusted. Stabbing around and assuming I am trying to load this
'super-virus'
of
yours onto people's computers without any explanation as to what makes you
thinks this is rude, crude, stupid, mean, full of bs, etc. etc. etc.
If you
would actually
be helpful, i.e. say something like 'Why is [name of your AV program]
flagging
[virus name] on this site? My [name of your so called specialized browser]
sees
[actual code in the web page]. I'm sorry I'm a bit cautious, but whats
going
on?'
Also, I 'googled' it, searching for "nitrious" OR "nitrous" AND
"virus". All
of
the results that came up had to do with th nitrous antivirus program.
At this point, you leave me to think one of the following:
A.) You are lying for the purpose of bringing other people down because
you
are not as good of a programmer.
B.) You are <clears throat> on of the more 'mentally challenged' people
in this
world and do not actually understand the situation.
C.) You heard someone else getting a little suspicious about some other
program I wrote, and so assumed that all of my other programs are
definately
malicious, just because one person suspected (falsely, but I must say
with very
good reason) that one of my programs was dangerous.
D.) You are bored and have nothing to do but write hate mail.
E.) You are using an anti-virus that is a piece of GUI &*#$ like
Kapersky
or
AVG.
F.) You are using a fabulous anti-virus such as Norton but you have the
bloodhound heuristics cranked to maximum, thus risking false
positives.
G.) I will not deny the possibility that there *is* a malicious
script on
the downloadcounter.com ws, but until you give more information,
there
is nothing i can do!!!
H.) I beat you to a similiar program; and you are p.o.ed because now if
you
post it it will look like you are ripping off of me.
So what is it? I would do SOMETHING about it in a heartbeat if you would
not be so vague!
Sincerely,
William Heimbigner
