Ooops I just posted a complete set of educational videos on Botnets... Should I delete them ?? I really feel it important to know the basics of how stuffs happen in the security world..... Advices ?

Carbon, if I was you I would contact a member of staff or just await your verdict.

This isn't a hacking forum, so I would avoid posting anything which some what relates to hacking.

Selling malware is not illegal! I sell it all the time, coding them is not illegal either.

Yes, but this a support forum. I have feeling we'll get some people asking how to get rid of this malware. And, sometimes it is illegal to use it. Thus selling it can be illegal. Just like selling guns can be. Just because you don't use it doesn't make it right.

To be able to remove malware, you need to know the structure and how it works. I know better about malware because I code it.
