Random Thought #35

Post by Guest »

I wonder if a person could build a website that runs programs, like a downloadable exe program or the like on the website and then VISUALY only, show you what would happen so you could test and see if you had any negative (viruses, trojans, etc...) effects on your pc.

Admitedly the program needed to run such an interface would be a challenge but it's an interesting idea I think. You?

Ummm no, it's a site that runs software for you and that allows you to use it without using your computer. The applications are not only for viruses, say your computer doesn't have enough computing power to run the software, that website allows you to run it and see everything you need to actualy see without having to run it on your pc.

You must be a masochist kracus. How many more threads are you going to make before realising people won't stop poking fun at you and your hairbrain ideas. Doesn't bother me, just sayin'!

sounds like something youd have to be really careful about. it could probably be easily exploitable. course i dont know shit about this, im just guessing.

What’s the program that you collaborate with for some researches something like SETI.
May be they can check for viruses in your PC before using your space disk or rather your internet uses.

wouldn't you need a bunch of expensive machines to host the web interface?

afterall, the program would still be run on a computer - just not yours.

Is this not in part what I keep reading about with the Google WebOS that is rumored/forcasted? :shrug:

this website would also emulate all installed drives, services and hardware combinations perfectly, ofcourse.

I don't see what's so interesting about seeing what a virus does, as usually, it does very little in the visual department (maybe except for a BSoD once in a while).

Kracus, I'm going to tell you this only once, but those movies showing skulls laughing at you and big red texts flashing "I OWN YOO HAR HAR HAR" after getting a virus are not realistic.

you mean like a VMWARE type of product that's web based?

Ugly whores showing off their lower back and bras. Great.
