game maker spyware

Posted by smaksak on Oct. 19, 2006, 1:01 p.m.

Hi

I'm worried.

I tried to check how my antivirus would react if I made a simple keylogger in game maker.

It didn't react.

So, game maker would be the perfect program for making spyware / viruses etc?

(Note: I'm NOT saying that I will make spyware or anything similair with game maker, I'm just saying that I hope other people WONT)

I hope that no serious malware maker will discover game maker.

My computer is acting weird; when I click go to sleep, it goes to sleep. But after.. about a minute, it starts up again.

With no shutdown button (at the login window)

And last time it happened, I couldn't login, when I clicked on my user; it shutted down.

Weird.

To be very useful, it would need to recognize windows and form types.

And even then it would not work for me unless it catches me when I type it the first time. I keep most of my passwords in Magic Wand in Opera.

I am pretty sure I recall [rapeape] announcing this and how he put a virus in all of his games.

Good thing too, I was getting sick of all those usertag abusers.

Just to be safe, I usually only play games that already have comments. ;)

Actually, it could be really easy to get passwords. Generally, the first thing you type when logging on to your computer is a password. When logging into a website, you type username, then password. By putting the text into word and searching for things like "www." ".com" ".net", etc, it would be easy to find out what sites a person goes to and what their username and password are.If I infected MrPacman with this spyware, I could then run a search for "MrPacman", find his username, the password would be right after that, then I could say stupid things in the blogs and it would look like MrPacman. (just an example, I'm not really gonna do it, nor do I hate MrPacman enough to do that to him specifically.)
