Re: Here we go again

sboe,

I am sorry if you misunderstood my intent. The Guy I was referring to was MagicJack (the marketer). He is marketing cheap VoIP in exchange for the ability to flood your computer with advertising. I am trying to warn you not to become his next victim. The VoIP threads never stay around on this Forum long enough for anyone to post their experiences with the MagicJack post advertising.

dbirdman you are missing the point! The MagicJack creates a Back door into the computer it is plugged into! With a back door the computer can be compromised with a “not_wildblue_file” which can contain scripts to regulate the advanced setting on the computers NIC. Also using the clock on the computer one can turn on the script at 4:00 PM and off at 12:00 AM thus regulating the speed of the computer s connection. This is simple script kiddy stuff. How can an Internet Service Provider defended against attacks caused by the stupidity of it users? Dang they left the door open and let them in.
