   Existing -IX filesystems are pretty good. However there
   MAY be some sneaky ways to speed finding/opening files,
   some in-memory index scheme perhaps. Even improving the
   'average' would be useful. Any ideas ?

This is definitely pushing my areas of knowledge but if the goal is to speed
up finding or locating files in the filesystem, then yes, some kind of
in-memory index or smarter metadata caching would likely help. Modern
filesystems already do a fair amount of that (don't ask me how they differ),
and I am sure there are pros and cons to different systems.

My point was narrower: once you've already opened the file, the difference
between reading 10 bytes and 100 bytes is negligible. This means a "quick
pre-check" doesn’t save much unless it avoids the open entirely (which does
not make sense if you want to check every file). I cannot give exact figures
on this and of course it varies by exact file system and storage type.

In the context of mail servers, scanning to determine actual file type 
is very fast, negligible. Then you can totally block certain types, or 
process them further with an antivirus tool.

Considering the well known fact that you could not determine the
difference between a soldering iron and an engraver, that comes as no
surprise.

And considering you attempted to run a computer business which failed
and had so many clients who were upset with you bricking their
machines that a local, in town legitimate computer repair business was
giving those people a snit discount, it makes sense.

And then of course just last year you were unable to repair your own
Mac and had to reach out to gremlin for advice on how to repair it
really closes the lid on your lack of technical skills, snit.

Weird how these trolls all "know" the same things that they cannot show, and
have no issue with implied doxxing. Almost like many of them are the same
person -- using socks.

And there is ONE person who has followed me around since 2004... harping on
the same dead debates. Hmmmm, one and the same. Not proved... but very likely.

Melissa was a goofy macro virus that spread because people opened sketchy
attachments in Word 97, not because it had magic powers. Since then, malware
has gone from teenage pranksters to full-on criminal enterprises using
zero-days, ransomware, and attacks on everything from routers to cloud
systems. You acting like the modern threat landscape is the same as 1999 is...
well, let's just say that's the real happy and ignorant mindset here. :)

Dumbass, I know a lot more about that virus than you ever will. I had to 
relocate for awhile to avoid an encounter with the feds as a result of 
what a friend in the scene did when he released it. I was the person 
responsible for acquiring a safe place to host codebreakers.org - Yes, I 
can back that statement up too. You didn't pickup a newspaper one morning 
and find an article about you on the front page. I did. You know fuckall 
about it.

What the fuck do you mean by since then? Ignoramous, the scene was pumping 
out destructive code that included data theft quite sometime before 
Melissa got around. I was responsible for some of it myself. teenage 
pranksters? You think Melissa was written by a teenager?!? Dumbshit. 

> You acting like the modern threat landscape is
> the same as 1999 is... well, let's just say that's the real happy and

I'm acting like nothing of the kind. You are talking completely out of 
turn here though. Your knowledge of the scene is a joke on your best days. 
BugHunter and Malwarebytes aren't from 1999. I wrote BugHunter and was 
cold recruited to work for Malwarebytes where I used those skills I have 
to reverse engineer 0day malware samples that would pull all kinds of 
shady shit if left to run amock on your gear. By cold recruited, I mean 
they offered me a job when I wasn't even looking for one and had no idea 
they were hiring. My known skills and reputation caused them to do that, 
Michael. How many serious tech jobs have you been offered by an employer 
when you didn't even know they were looking to add to their ranks? none as 
in zero, right?

stop trying to pretend as if you have any knowledge to have a discussion 
on malware, let alone actual viruses with me. You are in way the fuck over 
your head on those subjects, Michael.

Carlos was essentially talking shit about viruses, he doesn't need you to 
try and run interference. I'm a former VXer, I know the scene far better 
than either of you ever will. I was part of it. In the trenches. Yes, I 
can backup those statements too if you'd like to me to do so? It's not as 
if it's a secret, Michael. It's common knowledge to those who are 
seriously into IT or any subset of it. I already cut David Brooks off and 
disclosed who I am and what I've done a few days ago - screwing him out of 
the chance to surprise attack me with the information. I'm not worried 
about being judged for my past. I regret some of the things I did, but, it 
is what it is and I can't exactly go back and undo it.


You weren't even an outsider, and Carlos doesn't really know what the fuck 
he's talking about in so far as this subject is concerned. If none of the 
.doc files contained macros, IT was wasting clock cycles and risking 
mailbox corruption (yes, dumbshit, that was a thing too) by scanning for 
them. He didn't even mention the 'no macros' until I started probing him 
about it. IT was scanning them because some did contain macros and atleast 
one person in IT understood the risks that presented to the network - 
which is why they were scanned. Carlos didn't even understand that a virus 
scanner is only as good as it's last update and that it's mostly retro 
active in it's abilities to protect you from unwanted code. I took 
advantage of that ignorance many times back in the day myself. If your 
virus scanner says xx file is clean, you will trust it and you'll take a 
bite of the tainted cookie. You only have to take a nibble, you don't have 
to eat the whole thing - My code got you at the nibble.

MY files did not contain macros. Other people docs could have.

I may not be an expert, although I wrote an antivirus at the start, and 
removed some using the dos debugger, but I did not continue in that road.

I know enough to have never been caught by a virus.

Don't be insulting to other people you know nothing about, no matter if 
you won the Nobel price. Don't be a jerk.

It's very likely they did. Many corporations at the time were using them. 
They can save time, but, the security risks due to the awful way in which MS 
implemented them wasn't worth the time saving, imo.

Hmm. You wrote an antivirus? Do you remember anything specific about it?

I wasn't trying to be insulting. Blunt yes, insulting not so much, no.

Brock McNuggets is also known as Snit - I do have an issue with him, but, I

At the time, it was trivial. Viri either replaced the boot sector (of 
floppies mostly) , or attached to the end of an exe, then changed the 
address of the start instruction). All my program did was read the boot 
sector at boot, and the boot files, and compare with backup copies, and 
do it fast. I don't remember if I coded "repair". Trivial stuff, but 
some people found it useful because it was faster code than a commercial 
one that did the same. I used turbopascal and a few asm instructions.

Someone from my rough pal group left the uni and created an antivirus 
company. He struck rich. Eventually sold his company or bought another, 
I don't remember. I am not the enterprising kind, so I continued my 
studies and got copies of antivirus instead.

Nor do I. Happy to move forward in peace with him.

Gremlin, are you able? Let whatever the "issue" you say you have go and just
move forward in a reasoned manner?

Is your idea of peace attempting to bait replies from me and Steve Carroll 
with your bot threads in alt.computer.workshop?

Or falsely accusing me of being behind an obnoxious one (if it was actually 
a bot in the first place) that was used to seed search engines with slimey 
untrue statements primarily focused on your detractors? And doubling down on 
it?
Going so far as to completely misunderstand what I wrote and try to use that 
to claim I had insider knowledge? And when that didn't actually work, accuse 
me of lying about having insider knowledge in the first place? A claim YOU 
wrote - I never claimed to have any such insider knowledge in the first 
place. So I couldn't very well lie about something I didn't even claim to 
have in the first place. I've maintained from the jump that I had no copy of 
the bot in any form and didn't know for absolute certainly who was behind it; 
if it was actually a bot in the first place.

Maybe you thought the AI 'psych' profiles was a peace offering or something? 
Even though they weren't really accurate and the AI knew that when it 
provided it to you? Yet you wrote more than once you thought it was accurate 
and you agreed with the answers it provided. 

Perhaps you think dishonestly trying to label PotHead as a white 
sumpremacist is okay?

> Gremlin, are you able? 

Am I able to completely ignore the things you've done, pretend it never 
happened, and give you a free pass for all of it? That's what you're really 
asking isn't it?

> Let whatever the "issue" you say you have go and
> just move forward in a reasoned manner?

It's interesting how you phrase this, Michael. I think it's very clear what 
my issue with you is. Obviously this reply of yours is another part of your 
trolling routine.

It is a legit question. You and Carroll have not only said you could best my
AIM chat bot (not on AIM, of course these days) but that it was horrible.

The evidence does not back that. You say you are an amazing coder. I am
wondering how you reconcile these things.

But if you want to let it go and just not bring up that attack against me I am
happy to do that, too.

Are you able to stop attacking and making up stories about me?

No, it's not.

[snip further BS from you]

I haven't been attacking you, and, I haven't made up any stories about you. 
That's your thing, not mine. It's something you've been doing to people you 
have a self inflicted issue with going back decades.

You are that dishonest. You are that much of a troll. And, as I suspected, 
your entire 'can you put this behind you' post yesterday was you doing what 
you do. You're trying to con n00bs with your BS.

And you snipped and ran. You cannot reconcile these things. That is fair --
but why not just admit it DIRECTLY instead of this indirect nonsense you use.

:) If it works, it works. Were the asm instructions for direct access to the 
boot sector and possibly faster file i/o over turbopascals built in file i/o 
functions?

Do you remember the name of the company he created?  I'm curious to learn if I 
might have interacted with the software. It's completely fine if not.

I'm here for the same things and have no interest in fighting with you. If I

No, just a memory compare of two buffers of equal size. Otherwise the 
compiler produced code that was slower than the commercial program I was 
trying to emulate. compare string? It was a single instruction, once the 
buffers were loaded and the expected registers were set. I don't have 
access to the code, it is in an old 8086 computer with no network. I 
should retrieve all the files one day for archival.

No, sorry, long ago. A Spanish company, that's for sure. In the mid to 
late 80's.
