1. Can this be done. A virus file that changes its location every time a virus scan is done. Say a virus scan is about to check a certain folder that has the virus in it, can the file move its self to a folder that the virus scanner already checked????? That way evading the virus scanner.

2. Can you get a virus from dling a cs map...like off the server??? lol :p

this is possible, but obviously you wont be able to code something like that just because of the pure fact that you even asked if it was possible.

2. hahahahahaha, that means no. and darknessrises, you dont seem to be the right person to answer these kind of questions. unfortunately you used the words "my friend" in your reply to a question concerning security.

and i dont see why you people
1. reply if you
1.1 have no clue what youre talking abuot
1.2 have nothing wortwhile to add to the discussion
and 1.3 tell the person to ask someone who is not you
and
2. tell the person to ask ace
when
2.1 he is spanish
2.2 you yet have to look at his webpage and the l33t h4xor tools he has coded so far.

so much ownage in only one post, you guys should be thankful

Well I was there when it happened. It doesn't really matter though, as long as it's not very common. And Korritke just because it's never happened to you or anyone you know doesn't mean it's impossible. Someone could just make a map and put a trojan on it couldn't they?

I don't think you can put a virus into a CS map. Even if you could, the CS map isn't run as a file, it's opened by CS, so only the map part would get read. The people at valve arent completely stupid because you can use HTTP server for CS downloads, but it won't allow the downloads of some file types (exe's included)

Hmm in that case he probably got it before but that's when he first noticed it. Well nevermind then, Korritke is right (although I hate to admit it).
