13:08.41Adirelle|workI was hoping for more information about "critical hardware failure" in the channel topic but this isn't the case
13:08.48Adirelle|workso, 'sup ?
13:13.10Myrroddini don't have any new info either :(
13:13.56Myrroddinand i'm a moderator
13:15.50bluspacecowas a moderator do you know any if anything this arcticle here says is true : http://antivirus.about.com/b/2011/06/22/curse-com-ad-on-woes.htm#gB3
13:16.17Myrroddinlet me read it and get back to you
13:16.29sbuwell... there are flash vulnerabilities, and they do appear from 3rd party advertisers - so.. *Shrug* why not?
13:16.44sbuuse antivirus/antimalware and keep your flash/browser up2date
13:16.53sbuyou should do that anyways

13:21.44Myrroddinbluespacecow, i can tell you that whoever wrote that article is really good at believing his or her own BS. Curse is not a "direct ad network", it is a privately held company. the advertisements "hosted" on curse are not, in fact, hosted on curse. they are hosted by other parties, either the ad companies or the companies who hire the advertisers
13:22.30*** join/#wowace Diao (vince@70-36-134-69.dsl.dynamic.sonic.net)
13:22.40bluspacecowbut once you find which ad is "apparently" has the keylogger on it you can block the provider
13:22.44sbuMyrroddin: but that means those ad could contain flash exploits - yes, its not curse's fault, but still could happen :p
13:22.47Myrroddinyes, there is/was a vulnerbility in Flash, but everybody should be updating Flash often, because adobe has been having security issues for a year and a half
13:23.14bluspacecowits just that some of the  tech support regs are pointing to June 15th that they got a new strain of the fake MSN messager virus
13:23.34Myrroddinyes, when we find out, the curse staff (that would be people paid by curse, not us volunteer moderators) pull those ads
13:24.38Myrroddinand yes, people have been spammed by spammers, myself and a few curse personnel included. but to the best of my knowledge, no hack has occured in the DB, and the client remains secure
13:25.28Myrroddinmind you, have you looked at the addon packs? everybody is saying "hey pack author, give me your WTF folder. here's my EMAIL" -- and the spammers read that
13:26.02Myrroddinalso, there is yet another fake curse site going out in Google searches
13:26.22Myrroddini'd link that to you, but you don't want to click it, obviously
13:26.44bluspacecowi dunno
13:26.47bluspacecowmight feel kinky :)

13:27.46Myrroddinno clicky on the bad links! bad links are bad
13:28.28Myrroddinbut i just did a google search for "curse addons" and the eighth result is suspicious
13:29.04Myrroddinthere is no curse site called "curseaddons.net"

13:29.26NechcknBut, but... I like to believe that nEt is an evil overlord and did this all on purpose, Myrroddin
13:30.04Myrroddinhe might be. i've never asked him, because he might be LOL
13:30.23*** join/#wowace Diao (vince@70-36-134-69.dsl.dynamic.sonic.net)
13:31.08NechcknGood point... Pointy-Hairred Boss has been confirmed, so that would be the next step.  =)
13:32.35Myrroddinit's strange. usually i come home, moderate the curse forums, play some rift, go to bed. but since the hardware failed yesterday, i'm a little out of sorts
13:33.04arkanesI don't know about the windows client, but the OS X client uses an embedded safari instances to display adds, including flash ones
13:33.51arkanesso if a malicious flash add does make it into the ad network, then the client could be a point of infection even if you use flashblock and whatnot in your main browser
13:34.26Myrroddindoesn't flashblock just block the whole thing?
13:34.34sbunot inside the curse client
13:34.36arkanesand I'd say that curse does have a responsibility to prevent malicious flash ads from entering its network, although expecting 100% perfection isn't realistic
13:34.39sbuso update flash and its fine :p
13:34.47sbu+ use proper antivirus/antimalware
13:34.57Myrroddini wonder what would happen if you uninstalled flash. what would the site and client look like?
13:35.40arkanesMyrroddin: I actually have flash disabled in safari, and so I just get the plugin gear when the curse client wants to show a flash ad
13:35.50Myrroddinthe client is a dotnet app, so should continue to work. and i doubt the site is so dependent on flash it would fail to load
13:36.14Myrroddinwell there you go
13:36.25arkanesthats on OS X though and it's a different codebase
13:36.50arkanesI'm assuming they use a browser instance in order to be able to re-use the same javascript based stuff that they let advertisers use
13:36.58Myrroddinyou can turn off flash in any windows browser
13:37.18arkanesI know
13:37.32arkanesI'm saying the behavior of the OS X curse client doesn't neccesarily relfect the behavior of the Windows curse client
13:37.49arkanesbut I suspect it is the same
13:38.04Myrroddinprobably
13:38.59WobinMary Landesman is an antivirus professional with several years of experience in virus research, virus prevention and virus detection techniques.
13:39.35NechcknAnd studied BASIC, do not forget, Wobin  ;-)
13:40.08Wobin-and- dBase!
13:40.30NechcknYeah, I actually loled last night on that experience listing.
13:41.18WobinIt's a fraction bizzare to put it in there

13:41.41Wobinexcept it's basically saying she didn't do computers in college, only after
13:41.48MyrroddinI blame Ackis
13:41.51NechcknIndeed - was not sure if it was meant as a joke or what...
13:42.37NechcknNot to say that you *need* college to be a whiz at really anything, but the information listed was just very odd to me.
13:43.01NechcknThat sounds reasonable, Myrroddin  
13:43.21Wobinshe appears to have the background required to talk about security though
13:43.55Wobinbut she appears not to have the full information about the situation
13:44.06Wobincause why, would you write an article like that
13:44.14Wobinand -not- have feedback from Curse?
13:44.26arkanescause pageviews
13:44.27Wobineven a "A curse representative could not be contacted for response"

13:44.58arkanesshe's probably just mad that she can't get her addons updated in the run up to 4.2
13:45.16Myrroddinmaybe not a staffer, but did she read ANY of the moderator answers?
13:45.17NechcknHa!  could be
13:45.19arkanesand since she can't do that, she figures she may as well make a couple bucks by slapping up a post
13:45.56Wobinalso, god damn you woman, don't partially capitalise 'curse.com' sometimes and 'Curse.com' other times
13:46.37Myrroddini do find the spam in my email annoying, but that article jumped to lots of conclusions based on little to no facts
13:46.45Wobinanyway
13:46.54sbuthere are no pictures and since this is the interweb - she can't be female then!
13:46.59WobinI suggest someone in Curse respond to that with a reasoned post =P
13:47.28Wobincause the rest of us are just through hearsay
13:47.31NechcknOr just make up stuff about how she works for the competition, that could be fun, too
13:47.34MyrroddinLOL the only fact I read was yes, people get spam. well, duh. welcome to the internet, please enjoy your stay....
13:48.58Wobinalthough - On June 15th, Curse.com finally acknowledged the intrusion - but with the excuse that "It's all too easy for hackers to get into any database."
13:49.01Wobinis a bit odd
13:49.13Wobinas it implies a security breach of internal information
13:49.32sbubut more important: when will curse.com (and others) be back online? :o
13:50.22Myrroddini'd love to answer that, cuz i want to poke around on curse, but i honestly have no idea

13:56.50Adirelle|workWobin, " On June 15th, Curse.com finally acknowledged the intrusion", well, based on the "screenshot or it didn't happen" paradigm, where is her source ?
13:56.55Ackishttp://forums.riftgame.com/showthread.php?204383-Example-addons&p=2566761&viewfull=1#post2566761 best post on addon forums IMO
13:57.19WobinAdirelle|work: there's much lacking in terms of source.
13:57.33quiescensgasp
13:57.37Wobinbut aside from the one link I can't follow, cause Curse is down...
13:57.47Adirelle|workWobin, my point exactly, even with her solid virus background, this post just looks like a piece of BS

13:59.32Megalonwait what
13:59.52Megalonhow's that an excuse for getting hacked, wtf :o
14:00.13Myrroddinthe way i see it is if hackers can shut Sony down for a month, then anything is possible
14:00.15arkanes"ike the malicious Flash ad, the backdoor/downloader trojan was also hosted on curse.com's very own site." needs some evidence
14:00.54Myrroddinsince the only ads that are hosted on curse are curse ads, like the please get premium stuff
14:00.54Wobinthis is why I think a curse employee needs to lay out the facts
14:01.09Wobinany post from anyone else will just look like rabid fanboiism =P

14:38.48Adirelle|workMikk, that's indeed looks for a fault, but not for a hack...
14:39.08Adirelle|worke.g. passwords were never compromised according to your post
14:39.31Mikki actually have no authority to say anything about curse being hacked or not. at all.
14:39.41Mikki'm just making an obvious observation

20:16.52harl|wokwhy does GetUnitName() add spaces between the character'sname, the hyphen and the realm'sname?

20:27.04Primerspeaking of raid frames, I'm curious as to why PitBull shows erroneous values for power (mana) for raid members when they're far away, but when I target them, they're fine
20:27.30Elkanohmm... how high is the chance to end up with a guild mate in the same dungeon group if you didn't queue together? ^^
20:28.13Primerit's actually rather good, as the game tries to get people from your own realm first

22:17.46harl|woki just do c,r=unitname(u) and then if (r~="") add the slash otherwise don't
22:18.52harl|woksomehow GetLocale() fails on me though. too confusing.
22:23.30harl|woki can getlocale ingame just fine to get my locale, but when i do if (GetLocale() == "frFR") then Crack else Do_Something end, Do_Something is never done
22:23.53harl|wokmy local isn't frFR, so whatever is in the else part should be done, but it's not.
22:23.57harl|wok*locale
22:25.55stencilis it executing the frFR case? or is it possible its trying to do the Do_Something but that its failing there
22:26.55harl|wokif i completeley remove the if-then-else and just keep Do_Something, it's done.. and it's not trying to do what's in the frFR case, because that is actually the same
22:28.08stencilso neither the if case nor the else case are executing?
22:28.15harl|wokyes
22:29.16stencilthen I'd think you're never actually getting to that if statement ... that the code isn't running at all ...
22:30.18stencilthis is usually the point I start throwing print statements so that I can be sure whats running and what various local values are
22:30.18harl|wokbut it should. i get an error that the variable that should be set inside the if is missing from a line after the if
22:30.45stencilis this a scoping issue?
22:30.47harl|wokhm, debugging sounds great
22:30.55stencildo you need to declare the variable as local before the if?
22:32.06harl|wokno, the if statement is the first thing in the function. it should declare the variable either way, so that it would be available to the rest of the function.
22:34.07stencilbut if the variable is declared inside the if or else statement it may be scoped to that only right?
22:34.30stenciland not exist outside of that block for the rest of the function
22:34.39harl|woki don't know. does if work that way in lua?
22:35.15harl|wokit's the if statement that's causing the variable to disappear at its end then
22:35.51stenciljust did this on the command line, got nil was printed out: /run if (true) then local foo="cow" end print(foo)
22:36.09harl|woki see. i probably should declare the variable before the if then
22:36.32stencilif I omit the word local, then it might work ... just because I'd be setting foo in the global table, but you don't really want to do that
22:37.04stencilso, before the if statement, set up the local variables you want to use in that statement and you should be okay
22:38.04stencilnote - this even works: /run local foo=nil; if (true) then foo="cow" end print(foo)
22:39.24stencileven though foo was initialized to nil (which might make you think that it wouldn't really exist as a variable) it did whatever was needed in terms of scoping for it all to work right
