And evidently, has some sort of universal translator for the code
differences found between them all. :)

I would prefer it further if said engineer was able to demostrate
operational code instead of a storage site for potentially malicious code
which will never get run control; and thus, remain quite... harmless.

Only few malware samples which would make an effort to corrupt the BIOS;
and it required very specific hardware in order to do it's deed. One size
doesn't fit all.

Yes, Jenn. Anyone can re-register under any name in any group. When one
chooses to do so, knowing full well he is banned (which is why he's
creating another account in the first place) does *not* in any way show
good intentions, nor respect of any sort towards the forum admins.

If anything, it further justifies the initial ban that was set on his
account.

Further, He wouldn't have to tell me or anyone else he did this. As the
forum admins do audit for security purposes on occasion; his new userid
along with IP would be flagged as belonging to a now banned userID. Ie:
he would be caught eventually.

Clearly you know little about the options available to someone, should
they wish to use them.
