The unacev2.dll vulnerability was also used tp extract hidden malware, except it was able to sneak it directly into the Windows startup folder. Last edited by ownedbycats; Yesterday at 09:42 PM. |

So kamasutra.epub.exe shows as kamasutra.epub Also perhaps unwise was allowing multiple spaces, or spaces at all, such as in email attachments or zipped files: Code:
kamasutra.epub .exe important.doc .exe etc, never mind macros in actual real MS Office files. Or stupidity of ActiveX in Explorer browser. uPNP (aided and abetted by stupid router defaults) autorun 3rd party javascript in adverts that are 3rd party sites... There is no shortage of stupid. |

Agreed. But why would anyone care about that sort of stupid getting themselves in trouble (through means only very loosely associated with ebooks) by downloading from pirate sites? Ebooks aren't causing them problems. Their proclivities and stupidity are.

I've always had file extensions visible. But the other thing to not that obviously gets missed is the icon. If I have ADE installed and it owns .epub, then the icon should be the ADE icon. Even in WinRAR you see the icon at a rather small size. |
