Re: A83: Help




this seems like a good response, but not correct.  the system i propose 
will contain an OS that only enables itself the ability to delete or 
rearrange file.  this means that you have to have a password to use the 
deletion tool, and you also cannot at all costs use the HardDrive like 
the RAM (meaning no more looking up FATs or actually byte allocations in 
memory).  this does bring down a lot of possible programs, but i haven't 
seen a great game yet that needs to delete files on the harddrive.  i 
know saved games need to be cleaned out once in awhile, but that's why i 
am putting a password protection on it, maybe i'll make a "deletable" 
file attribute that will allow that file to be deleted without 
confirmation.  virii were made by huge corporations in the first place 
in order for them to clean out their harddrive (deltree c:\*.* /y is 
usually used).  this isn't a hightech virus but it still gets the job 
done.  now the ability to delete massive amounts of files is gone (if 
the computer i propose is built).  since you can't send commands out of 
the cpu like an OUT statement (unless you have priveladge of 0 which you 
can't since that'll be my system only).

this may sound stupid now, but until you see it you can't dis it 
(patience--spelling?).  for every hacker/cracker/virii scenario i came 
up with, i've also come up with a way to stop it.

i can't say much more until i actually build the system and show you, 
but please feel free to criticize somemore.

{{virii and hacking is ALWAYS possible no matter how tight you think 
your
system is. if you want ppl to buy your system you gotta make it able to 
do
stuff, that would bring down the security so you will most definately 
have
virii and hacking done on your system.
