  1. AnonWare 1.0 RELEASE: http://pastebin.com/5f4C79VA
  2.  
  3. GITHUB REPO AVAILABLE NOW! https://github.com/opendeveloper/anonware (^)_(^)
  4.  
  5. TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT:
  6.  
  7. as for allegations that my code is 'amaturish, lazy, etc.' i would like to say that it's completely true :) the code provided here *IS* just a C# compiler (with a little extra) and shouldn't be taken as some kind of super awesome virus released by a group of Anonymous hackers. it's something me, a bad programmer, threw together in a couple hours and decided to paste on pastebin.
  8. oh, and fortherecord, i was a little high, and, retrospectively, the comments were definitely over-optimistic. and when the reporter from the tech herald contacted me, i assumed that he was a developer, and he took interest in the code. i naturally was like, well i guess it is pretty cool...and let my ego get ahead of myself. i would like to formally apologize to fellow Anonymous members for providing such a simple framework
  9. and then acting inapropriately like it was an awesome new idea.
  10.  
  11. as for encryption/obfuscation
  12. encryption/obfuscation was something i was assuming the devs could add to the framework; i didn't think it would be something i should put in the framework. besides; if i put a specific kind of obfuscation/encryption into the framework as it was, it would be pretty easy for the a/v vendors to just find a flaw in one part of my encryption code and then use that to exploit all future editions of it.
  13. that doesn't allign well with what the 'framework' is, more of like the standard stuff so you can add on your own stuff so that a/v doesn't have one standard thing to go off.
  14. UPDATE: encryption is now available in AnonWare! check out our github repo for more info ^_^
  15.  
  16. as for existing malware frameworks
  17. once again, alittle high, way to optimistic comments ^^_^^
  18. as for the existing malware frameworks pointed out, all of them are either pay-to-use or really hard to find the source for. i provided AnonWare as a service that's simple to find and easy to modify
  19.  
  20. for the future:
  21. i will release the FIRST version of AnonWare a couple days after #RefRef is released. hopefully, it will include encryption/obfuscation, a seperate edition for people that want to create rouge AV and other software. i have an idea for using it with #RefRef, and will get everything ready for integration with #RefRef while we wait for the #RefRef team to complete development. i emphasize FIRST because it seems some people misunderstood
  22. the point of AnonWare...it was counterintuitive for the Sophos researcher to provide malware detection for it since what is provided here is nowhere near completed malware. also the tech hareld reporter may have misunderstood, partially by sending the code to the researches. i'm not blaming anyone for this; i acted like it was bigger than it was, and as a result reporters and the public may have been dissapointed when reading thru the code.
  23.  
  24. finally, please help AnonWare :P if you can do any type of development, i would love it if you could help improve the code, translate the code, etc with the github
  25. https://github.com/opendeveloper/anonware
  26. or send improvements to opendev@hushmail.com

  28. ty. tyvm.
