Nah, because the only ones who receive the file are those attempting to do harm to my system. Granted I could make it go to a warning page, which after a few seconds dumps them to the other page, thereby giving them a warning before I fire the shot, just like a trespasser in my house. Do I shoot first when they are in MY house in the middle of the night, or do I give them enough time to shoot me? They are trespassing on my system. Normal use of the system does NOT require access to cmd.exe or other files they are looking for to use to exploit the system. Normal use laws apply, and you CAN and folks DO take steps to secure their system from others.
Legally I checked with lawyers and the ones in my area say as long as I keep a log of the accesses I am fine. I took this step after sending over 200 messages to ISPs to halt their users and receiving no response to any of the inquiries even though I provided the ISPs with log files and everything. I did the same with ISPs with spammers and open relays. Multiple emails to their main offices and local branches with the spammers email addresses, full headers, and no word back. If the ISP was not even willing to answer multiple emails they were sent another email with how to contact me directly and then their entire domain was added to the server kill file. Cut down on the spam in MY inbox. -----Original Message----- From: Michael C.
