As far as I can tell, their program 'pretends' to be some other piece of non-legit software that warez dumpster-divers search around the 'net for. Doesn't do anything except show a 'gotcha' message.
Now, if they were sending that file into legit software distro channels e.g. masquerading as, say, a RedHat iso -- but surely the tiny filesize should make you suspicious  -- maybe they'd run into trouble. Looks like they're only seeding warez p2p nets, which is what the RIAA says it did anyway.
For what it's worth... you get what you pay for

Re: Drive-by-downloadings
Nothing like a couple of script kiddies who pretend to have a conscience.
The only thing that will make their idiocy even more humorous is when they receive a cease and desist letter from some company for sharing cracks (or at least appearing to), or when their ISP pulls the plug on them for using P2P. Or better yet, when they anger another group of kiddies and revenge is taken. Personally, I'd like to see a group of swashbuckling kiddies show up on their doorstep to keel haul them  |

There's bunches of fake game ROM sites which fill your computer with viruses and spyware, yet ROM piracy goes on regardless. I don't think P2P will be knocked down by fake files either, even if malicious. |

They say they arent going to send the info sent back to them to law enforcement, but why else would the program phone home?
The people who dl that stuff should be reported, at the least for being stoopid

Re: Drive-by-downloadings
AFAIK script kiddies use other peoples programming skills and just click an exe file.
I wouldnt put these guys in that category since they are writing this themselves. |

This is what a couple of geek teenagers do when they have ruined their brains watching to many episodes of the Teletubbies. In addition they are so obnoxoius and ugly they can't even get a date with an inflatable porno doll. Clif and Justin pulled the string on their new plastic princess, instead of a moan and groan their pnematic nooky deflated.

| SIlly, but intruiging.
The motive behind this is something I agree with, but on the other hand I do consider it wasted time.
However, their site lists who ran the program, when it was run, what it was named, the users' IP, yadda yadda. I think such information is quite interesting to see, since based upon the time of fetch, you can get an idea of how something quickly can spread, regardless of how silly or pointless it may be.
With that said, I've got to give these two blokes kudos for at least doing something that's silly but intriguing to boot.

Re: Sad but true
I was thinking along the very same lines when I read the exchange
with them in the Security forum this morning. I
was thinking that they are just asking to get their
website DDoS'd off the web (or in the language of their
'fellow' script kiddies, packeted.) Hmmm, I wonder what
script kiddies do to traitors in their midst?

If its collecting information then it looks like SPYWARE to me. It's waste of time and serves no real purpose. Who knows what data does it send besides ip location etc.? I never seen the program but it would be interesting to packet sniff it. It also floods p2p networks with useless crap. Looks like those guys are out looking for publicity.
