Beware of Trojan Horses (Mod Lecture Series)
Free Republic
Posted on 06/09/2010 1:20:45 PM PDT by Admin Moderator
This is just a quick note to everyone. Lately, a lot of people have discovered a video that supposedly is by a Hawaii official that claims there is no Hawaii Birth Certificate for the President.
We have no idea as to the legitimacy of this claim however, we need to warn everyone that the source of this video is a group called The Council of Conservative Citizens. This is NOT a Conservative group, do not be fooled by the name. This group is a front group for a neo-Nazi group known as the National Alliance and is associated with Stormfront.
Sources such as this are not welcome at Free Republic for obvious reasons. If you see this video posted, please report it to us through the abuse button so we can remove it.
These groups have a history of creating front groups or websites to try to sneak into the mainstream. Another site that you may see a lot that works like this is the EU Times. From what we've found, they are associated with a pretty nasty European Neo-Nazi group.
We don't expect everyone to check every single source, especially as some do stay under the radar. Just stay vigilant and know that sites like this are out there.
That is all. You may return now to your regularly scheduled broadcast.

I clicked on a link from EU Times and starting getting something weird downloaded on my computer that my virus protection wasn't picking up. (rebooted and clear my temp files and cookies)
Could very well be something bad.

We don’t have any control over those, but I suspect it is because the primary is over. Like poker, you play the hand you are dealt.

Somebody has control of the fundraiser "ads". I notice the anti-iCarly ads seemed to have been dropped. Are we going pro-RINO now?
Are we now the Semi-Free Republic?

Are we going pro-RINO now? The big dog made it clear the answer to that is hell no. However, that race isn't an active race right now and I suspect that it is just to focus on what race is active.

Oh I have complaints about Jim Thompson! :)
That much is for sure.

“We have no idea as to the legitimacy of this claim however, we need to warn everyone that the source of this video is a group called The Council of Conservative Citizens.”
Given that the claim might still deserve some detective work... For the record the claim was made supposedly by a “Tim Adams” who purportedly is now teaching in Western Kentucky, in case anyone wants to vet Tim Adams...
I did find a Facebook page for a Tim Adams who “likes” (as they say on Facebook) the Kentucky Derby. Not much to go on for what is probably a very common name.
To: LucyT
Hopefully a more reputable person/group will interview Adamas.

Nothing to do with the virus. Probably a bad choice of term on my part.Not complaining. I am somewhat of a computer geek and trojan horses always bring to mind viruses.
Don't you have the power to change it? :^o

When video aps present security breaches (and I agree some do), then the video software is doing things (like reporting viewing habits back to home) that it has no right or legitimate reason to be involved in.

The security flaw that is currently open and in the wild, no Mac users are not immune, involves Adobe reader as well as flash. Linux user users, you too. The main proliferation as of a few days ago seemed to be embedded flash files in pdfs. Try to upgrade if you can. I provide no link, it's working for me can't help you if it doesn't because it's not a ‘stable’ release. Update and or disable/uninstall flash everyone. They will fix this.

Thank you. I for one have only been at this Internet thing for a couple of years and those groups had eluded me so again I thank you for the heads up and especially for the explanation.

With regards to the flash vulnerability, yes. The update/upgrade for the flash has no inbuilt uninstaller yet but it works for me in this windows box, I'll test later on Linux.
