Public Marker #1
---------------------

:S949n
IF EXIST "%UserProfile%\application data\seilhturtlaereht.inf"

seilhturtlaereht.inf ==> Drop the .INF

seilhturtlaereht ==> theealtruthlies




Public Marker #2
---------------------



IF EXIST "%UserProfile%\local settings\temp\obatssrsghde.exe" echo "%UserProfile%\local
settings\temp\obatssrsghde.exe"
IF EXIST "%UserProfile%\local settings\temp\obatssrsghde.exe" echo "%UserProfile%\local
settings\temp\obatssrsghde.exe">>remove-it.txt


The file; "%UserProfile%\local settings\temp\obatssrsghde.exe" is a fabrication. It does
not exist.

It, obatssrsghde.exe, is actually a file name in code.

obatssrsghde.exe ==> drop .EXE

obatssrsghde

increase character by 1 ==> pcbuttsthief

( ROT1 Right )

The important factor, and for the record...

Stuart placed the above and OTHER makers in the RogueFix utility. Within a short perioid
of time AFTER the RogueFix batch file was posted, Butts had a new version of Remove-It out
and those markers were CLEARLY found in whatever package he subsequently posted.

The markers were created in such a way that there should be NO hesitation in recognizing
the plagiarism. The chance of the strings naturaly occuring, encoded as they were, is
astronomically large. Yet, obviously so simple once you knew the key. As always,
"trusted" people knew in advance what the resultant string was, the key used and the maker
in general was going to be.

The public taunting of Butts and obatssrsghde.exe was then final clincher for many.

What was REALLY "interesting" was Butts trying to weasel his way out.

He said he sent obatssrsghde.exe with a MD5 = 3eb436f91454923f2d7f1d8dda41f681 to Virus
Total and gave us a Virus Total report.

That made me laugh as I have access to an administrator of Virus Total and i told him it
was about catching Butts in a lie. Since he knew the whole story he was happy to assist
and he provided me the following information...

"MD5 = 3eb436f91454923f2d7f1d8dda41f681

it arrived twice, sent by the same person:

file name: obatssrsghde.exe
date.....: 2009/07/21 03:40
source...: US, Anonymous, id 1340019

file name: roxio_downloaded_from_Demonoid.co
date.....: 2009/07/21 03:34
source...: US, Anonymous, id 1340019"

Thus Butts found something to the effect of "roxio_downloaded_from_Demonoid.co" and
submitted it to Virus Total. He then reanmed it to "obatssrsghde.exe" and re-submitted it
to Virus Total as "obatssrsghde.exe" and that was the report he provided. Too f'n phunny
!

Butts gets caught in lies, and gets called out on them. He covers them with more lies,
etc, infinitum.
