| 152758 | 2003-06-18 03:11:00 | I remember back at my school for a few months there was this interesting icon on the taskbar. I decided to investigate by right clicking and going properties. There was a list of all the cd-rom drives containing stuff like encarta etc inside the server computers. "How interesting" I thought. Anyway I decided to right click one of the cd-roms, and what do you know - it had an eject button. :D I right clicked on all the cd-roms and went eject, then quickly got out of there. I did not know if my little trick had worked or not because I was in a different part of the school. Another day I was in the computer room during class (server room nearby), and I decided to try again. I right-clicked again and ejected the 5 cd-rom drives. Then quickly logged off and went away from the computers. One moment later, the techie who was in the server room rushes out and over to a group of computers where I had been working and starts blaming my friend for doing something. Another teacher walks over, and the techie exclaims "I was just in the server room, and all the cd drives started opening and closing!". :^O rofl! I was trying my best not to laugh and give myself away. My friend was adamently saying he didn't know anything, but practically got the blame for it anyway. lol. Later, the techie found out what the problem was and disabled the icon. What a laugh though. |

It was at bootup time, and afterwards the drive wasn't "there". Turned out to be due to a SCSI card (which didn't have any devices connected). At least it stopped happening when I pulled the card. :D |

Team Kill servers are the best, in fact every once in a while, me and this person from Tasmania go into Soldier of Fortune 2 and have a real good laugh... |

| 152764 | 2006-11-07 14:50:00 | hi, sorry to hear about the cd problem. i have seen this problem twice over the last couple of years as an engineer. the first time it was simply a problem with the drive itself. its was swaped out and it fixed the problem no worries. the next time was a bit more complex. the same fault: drive opens then closes - even whist sat in the bios. a full recovery of the software (win xp) was run and it carried on. a new drive was fitted which did the same. full diags were run on the controllers and the firmware and drivers were updated with the newest available. no joy. we ended up sampping the cpu - hey presto! works ok. the pc had passed all diagnostic checks, but the cpu obviously had this rather rare and quirky problem. so my advice would be to swap test all the components you can as opposed to searching out the pin in the haystack and run loop diagnostics on the motherboard... hopefully its just the drive though :) r |

| 152765 | 2006-11-07 21:12:00 | Two of the most popular Trojans that allow this CD-ROM DRIVE command are the Netbus (www.hackfix.org) and SubSeven (lockdowncorp.com) Trojans. Features of Netbus v1.60 and above [note: "you" here signifies the hacker, not the hackee] * Open/close the CD-ROM once or in intervals (specified in seconds). * Show optional image. The supported image-formats is BMP and JPG. * Swap mouse buttons * "Strobe" the screen, esp destructive on LCD screens * Change or swap resolution rates and invert spectral colors * Cause desktop icons to move away from pointer, or make them fall to the taskbar in a pile. * Insert .wav sounds into user's attempts to navigate webpages or desktop. * Start applications. * Play sound-file. The supported sound-format is WAV. * Point the mouse to optional coordinates. * Turn on any vid-cams and watch the actions in it's range. * You can navigate the mouse on the target computer with your own * Show a message dialog on the screen. The answer is always sent back to you * Shutdown the system, logoff the user etc. * Go to a URL within the default web-browser * Send keystrokes to the active application on the target computer * Listen for keystrokes and send them back to you * Get a screendump * Return information about the target computer. * Upload any file from you to the target computer * Increase and decrease the sound-volume. * Record sounds that the microphone catch. The sound is sent back to you * Make click sounds every time a key is pressed * Download and deletion of any file from the target. * Keys (letters) on the keyboard can be disabled. * Password-protection management. * Show, kill and focus windows on the system. Netbus removal, if this is what's causing this problem: 1. Remove the 666 key in the registry located at KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\RunServices Which can be done with regedit or any other registry editing program. 2. Reboot the computer or close SKA.EXE. 3. Delete the trojan file SKA.EXE in the windows system directory. |
