It still kind of makes me sad that hackers resort to such lame ways of infecting and controlling machines. There are so many more easier and sophisticated ways to complete those trivial tasks.
Some of my clients wants to log keyboard and snapshots... does anyone knows something like this with an irc client?

Very interesting read
Awesome read
Fantastic read, amazed by the lengths some people go to really!
Well, I've certainly been DDoS'ed before by WordPress installations - anything mission critical at this point I put behind a ddos mitigated server with NGINX as to not be knocked offline
(hint: nearly 90% of sh*tty booters out there I've been hit with use hacked WP installs)
Anyways, awesome read

It is interesting to see how they work, and why. Thanks for sharing.
That's a pretty nice marketing idea on behalf of the Wordfence team (unique, shareable and quality content). Do you by any chance remember where you found the link to this blog article, I would love to analyse how they spread their viral articles.
Great article.
Edit:Wrong thread
A very interesting read!
