I have a theory how viruses work. My theory is you need one computer
program to host another computer program, and once the program is
hosted, and that program gets executed, it can launch the other
program in to memory on the free store, where it can run and play
behind the scenes of the operating system. Just by intentionally
writing a program that spills itself into the rest of memory. The
simplest kind will just start destroying a windows computer, but more
sophisticated programs will try to watch and understand what windows
is doing. As soon as windows starts shutting itself down, it will
write its loading program into the startup script, and once windows
starts up it will remove itself from the startup script, so you never
even see the program executing. And because the program is running
wild on the free store you never even notice it except for unsual
errors as it corrupts memory and slows down your machine. Eventually
it just hogs so much resources that it sends out bulk e-mail to
everyone online, and networks with all the other viruses behind your
back. It logs all your keystrokes and steals your passwords, putting
your identity into a hacker database. Almost every machine has the
virus, but no one can trace it down to the author who is probably
hiding in another country, especially because you get through a
network of spaghetti as all the viruses communicate with each other.
The unsecured free store in the computers memory is part of what C++
was built on, and windows was programmed up in the C++ programming
language. You can even write your own C++ operating systems and put
them on boot disks and cdroms. I think Bill Gates is really to blame
for all viruses because he doesn't have a way for windows to search
through its own memory and look for unusual activity. It doesn't even
know what it is doing itself.

The buffer overflow is completely different. Virus writers can
litterally launch their own viruses by hands on their friends
computers with software they write themselves. The software just
contains in a string another program that is already compiled that
launches itself into memory. Then the origonal program finds a way to
execute that program in memory seperately, perhaps at boot time before
windows even loads. The computer hardware is configured to be multi-
tasking. So all the program needs is a way to execute itself outside
of windows memory, rewrite itself into the boot sector at shutdown,
and delete it self at startup. All the initial attack has to do is
write itself into the boot sector and freeze your computer forcing a
restart. The virus can then execute itself in memory outside of the
operating system, and spy on your every keystroke, even e-mailing you
activity back to an anonymous account with its own e-mail server. The
bootsector virus just loads up first and then terminates spilling
itself into the windows startup script, or even the imac startup. I
can tell imac's aren't secure, but if you were to build a machine that
could only boot its intended operating system and configure that code
into CMOS viruses wouldn't be a problem. You would also have to
permanently configure what applications could load up at boot time
inside of the operating system, because a virus can rewrite the
operating system to execute resident programs behind your back.

Maybe I don't need an extra firewall. I'm reading about the iMac
startup system and it seems secure.
This page briefly describes the sequence of events that happen when
Mac OS X boots.
Some details of the boot process from power-on until the kernel is up
and running are covered in Booting Mac OS X and XNU: The Kernel. To
recapitulate:
* Power is turned on.
* Open Firmware code is executed.
* Hardware information is collected and hardware is initialized.
* Something (usually the OS, but also things like the Apple
Hardware Test, etc.) is selected to boot. The user may be prompted to
select what to boot.
* Control passes to /System/Library/CoreServices/BootX, the boot
loader. BootX loads the kernel and also draws the OS badges, if any.
* BootX tries to load a previously cached list of device drivers
(created/updated by /usr/sbin/kextcache). Such a cache is of the type
mkext and contains the info dictionaries and binary files for multiple
kernel extensions. Note that if the mkext cache is corrupt or missing,
BootX would look in /System/Library/Extensions for extensions that are
needed in the current scenario (as determined by the value of the
OSBundleRequired property in the Info.plist file of the extension's
bundle.
* The init routine of the kernel is executed. The root device of
the booting system is determined. At this point, Open Firmware is not
accessible any more.
* Various Mach/BSD data structures are initialized by the kernel.
* The I/O Kit is initialized.
* The kernel starts /sbin/mach_init, the Mach service naming
(bootstrap) daemon. mach_init maintains mappings between service names
and the Mach ports that provide access to those services.

Not behind the scenes. If a program want to allocate some
memory from a free store, it has to ask OS for it. Only
the kernel routines could allocate a memory to it and
realize mapping virtual addresses to physical adresses.
Also, the sub-process launched by some process is running
in an address space of that parent process, so it can be
under full control of the OS and the parent process.
The simplest kind will just start destroying a windows
computer, but more sophisticated programs will try to
watch and understand what windows is doing.
Yeah, that's exactly what I've suspected ;)
Your theory is strongly biased by the One True Platform ;P
Bear in mind that there are other platforms than Windows,
that are not hatcheries of viruses [like M$'s OS'es are].
Today's memory protection mechanisms are enough for
protecting from viruses, if they're used properly.
Eventually it just hogs so much resources that it sends
out bulk e-mail to everyone online
Only if you're running a bad protected M$ crap and don't
block incoming connections to SMTP ports - what machine
on local network really needs to behave like an SMTP server
if not a virussed zombie computer? :P
It logs all your keystrokes and steals your passwords,
So it still needs to hook on system procedures and it could
be detected.
putting your identity into a hacker database.
:D give me one address of that kind of "hacker database" ;)
[one is enough i think ;)]

Don't generalize. You're projecting your particular experiences
on the rest of the world.
The unsecured free store in the computers memory is part of
what C++ was built on
What do U mean by that C++ free store is "unsecured"? C++ standard
doesn't define anything about free store security, because it's
the OS-dependant matter. So U may say about "unsecured OS memory
management mechanisms", but not "unsecured C++ free store" :P
and windows was programmed up in the C++ programming language.
Where do U know that from? Do U have access to Windows's source code? :)
I think Bill Gates is really to blame for all viruses
Not only him [he didn't code all the Windows ;P], but the Microsoft
could be blamed for viruses, sure as Sun :)
because he doesn't have a way for windows to search through
its own memory and look for unusual activity.
He has, but not always use it.
It doesn't even know what it is doing itself.

OOOPS, I meant to say were your parents cousins or are you that

sheesh.

Learn2Unix kk thnx.
Um, is school out? Oh yeah, it is Easter break. That explains this one.
If you think I should "learn to use Unix," then fine. I suppose that
using the school's BSD system in college, maintaining several Xenix
systems and working on developing software for SPARC stations doesn't
count, eh?
Oh, and then there's this computer. Of course it has NOTHING to do with
Unix whatsoever.
So, mr ubergeek, please enlighten us on your OS of choice. I see you at
least use a very current version of Pan.
Nah man just giving you a hard time about your mac on the net comment.
Ahh...
....that was directed solely at a few of the regs in a2600. My Mac - a
'80s-era SE/30 - doesn't do the internet and has no browser. (It is
system 6.0.7, IIRC.) My wife had a mac in the mid-90s, an LC, I think.
I remember we gave that to one of our friend's daughters some years back.
I really haven't used a mac much since then. My father-in-law does use a
mac, and I'm familiar with it's *nix origins.
But i run Gentoo, fedora core 6, Redhat 9, Debian 3.1 Sarge, Solaris 10,
and how could i forget Openbsd 4.0.
Fukk! I just run SUSE. No time for anything else.
Mac OsX is based off of a Unix
Variant NextCube Os. Hence why i said the Learn2Unix comment. Granted
you are on Usenet which is better than the 400,000+ people that still
try to find information and informative talks via web forums.k
Heh! I run one and am on several of those, too. I think there are plusses
and minuses to both.

I used to be regular reader here until about 5 years ago when i got into
a wee bit of trouble. But yeah the companies that i deal with run all of

and the old macs sheesh i feel your pain on those mang. Rough Stuff.Yeah
i still like seeing people use the far corners of the net and i like
seeing there is a little bit of interest still in the BBS and in usenet.
