Title: Spyware collect Post by: Brok Ironfist on September 03, 2009, 08:38:29 PM Ok, say I have 5 servers.
Which IP address is tagged to the virus when I do a collect and someone else has a Spyware stealing my $$$? Is it the current gateway when I do the collect or is it the very first server I created? Title: Re: Spyware collect Post by: Exousia on September 03, 2009, 10:08:34 PM This is off the cuff, so feel free to correct me, but I believe that it's the IP of the server which is currently acting as your gateway. I vaguely remember something about there being a chance of another random owned server as well, though, but I may be thinking about VIs.
Anyone got a more definitive answer? I honestly haven't researched this one personally. :laugh: Title: Re: Spyware collect Post by: ivandrago on September 04, 2009, 05:49:40 AM Unless Emi changed this in the past 8 months: The spyware will log the current IP of the gateway that installed the virus
@Exousia: I think your mixing things up with Virus Identifier.

Yeah, I feared as much. :2: Title: Re: Spyware collect Post by: Brok Ironfist on September 05, 2009, 09:26:35 PM Ok thanks.
I was asked in game but didn't have a clue :21: Title: Re: Spyware collect Post by: ivandrago on September 16, 2009, 12:41:31 PM It seems I was wrong after all :6:
I know from personal experience now that there's also a chance that the spyware logs will reveal an IP of any random server owned by the moneymaking virus's owner.

Ah, I see. My information was second hand, so I was willing to believe either case due to the lack of personal experience. |
