Earthstation 5 Claimed to be Malware

Posted by michael on from the compiled dept.

Rob from RPI writes "You may remember the announcement about a company, or program, or both called Earthstation 5 who recently 'Declared War' on the MPAA. Well guess what? Turns out that it's got code in it that allows anyone to delete any file on your computer. I suggest that you un-install as soon as possible!"

    MY WINDOWS HAS THIS CODE IMPLEMENTED IN IT'S CORE!

    since the program only runs on windows, this "feature" is not as original as it seems...

    cheers,
    cies.

    Now, apparently, ES5 is in Palestine.

    They're probably going to claim the code was inserted by the Israeli army or something.

    Palestine may not have been an independent nation state, but the Palestinian people had existed as a distinct race since biblical times when the Semitic tribes split along religious grounds. Remember that Jews and Palestinians are both Semitic races.
    What a fucking load of UTTER BOLLOCKS. Religion DOES NOT make a race. Now, crawl back under that rock you came from, slimy sionist.

    Christ, are you a fucking moron or do you just like arguing? There aren't any fucking good guys here. Israels war crimes are well known and well documented. That the illegally occupy territory is a provable fact. Their human rights abuses are numerous. The arab nations surrounding them aren't neccesarily any better, either, but they don't have a fucking fan club like Israel does either. Israel should be wiped off the planet, and replaced with an actual democracy and not the fanatical, religiously prejudiced, terrorism sponsoring country thats there now.

    And sure, any other nation that meets that criteria should be too.

    Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing the eradication of all muslims from the planet. World peace would be right around the corner from that.

    Yay for the humour impaired. Oh, and for shooting yourself, too, that's a big help. Thanks.

    Well, the brainwashing must be really effective. I have no other explanation for it.
