As many of you, i'm tired of this. I think moderators can stop unfounded
acusations in order of stoping this. This post it's a response to the next
message:

Since people continue giving inconclusive evidence that can damage the name of
one person, and worse, they claim their evidence it's conclusive. I think it's a
must to note that their evidence it's not conclusive.
If they had something conclusive since the begining, i was the first to stop
responding.

Here it's another way (of many) Fafis could take the virus:

------ Begin

http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/virus.aspx?id=42909

"Backdoor Functionality
The worm can be used as an IRC controlled backdoor, allowing a remote user to
gain unauthorized access to the infected machine."

"The worm connects to the domian irc.blackcarder.net and joins a particular
channel on port 7000. It then waits for instructions from the channel. The worm
can be instructed to perform the following actions on the affected machine:"

"Download files
Download worm updates
Execute files
Provide information about the worm variant to the remote controller
Provide uptime information to the remote controller
Provide Windows Version, Ram and CPU of infected machine"

-- END

So the worm could be updated or a blinder could be downloaded or executed,
another program could be downloaded or a person could take control of the
machine, or a remote robot could take control of the machine making whatever it
is programed to do, the posibilities are many ...
It can be that Rafael was making tests with the unpacked EXE file, so there was
many time with the .EXE unpacked, then he packed it. There are many posible
explanations.

Concluding so quickly and worse making it public so soon that Rafael packed the
virus it's just nosense.

For Chris and Michael:
-----------------------

Please, next time your are going to acusse someone here are some steps: First
got the whole evidence, then make your conclusions, then ask someone if you are
rigth and finally make it public. Your are making the reverse, you first got
your conclusions then you make it public and now you are working hard to got the
evidence and even if you finally got it (i doub it) your method it's wrong.
