You have military experience, you should understand the need for secrets.
I don't understand what your issue is here...

If you choose to run his installer, it's going to replace your hosts file
with a modified one from him. If you do that, you will lose access to
malwarebytes, bughunter, and a slew of other helpful sites. Not because
the sites are bad, but because they've exposed him for the scoundrel he
is and it's his way of payback.

It's the way he works. For some of us, we get a domain! (Leythos), and
others get a short porno flic dedicated to them. Obviously the intent is
to inrage and slander anybody he doesn't agree with.

Do you feel it's correct in any way for him to be posting a fake porno
where he says I star in it? If he's willing to do that, what makes you
think *anything* he's claimed we've done has any validity to it
whatsoever?

Some of us have sent cease and desist letters with varying results.
Remove-it was once called Spyerase. Pcbutts claims he sold it (a batch
file.. right... heh), and thats why it's been renamed to Remove-It.

In the USA, it takes money to have justice served and wrongs righted.
Pcbutts knows this. Criminals always have the advantage. As the software
he's stealing isn't for profit, it's unrealistic to expect anyone to
cough up the immense amount of funds to sue him; just for him to turn
around and do it again. And he would, he has each and every time we've
caught him for something. Did you check the pcbutts and rot13 search
query yet? You should. One version of the original software was marked,
pcbutts didn't know about them; arguing with us here for days on how he
put them there, but couldn't tell is what they meant. heh, a few days
after this, I was permitted to explain what the marker was, and how to
read it. :)

You really should look this thread up David, your giving the benefit of
the doubt to the wrong person. Pcbutts has you for a sucker.

His point however stands. If pcbutts were actually an mvp; why would he
want your computer to no longer access the sites related?

Before you keep calling us fuckwits, you need to do your homework. Jenn
doesn't think your a troll, but alot of us are pretty sure you are. Your
methods of investigation wouldn't be tolerated in any military setting I
know of... so I don't understand why you think they would be here?
