Crimefighter Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 WARNING: If you get a NanoArcade for Christmas, mine the first time I plugged it in detected a computer virus! In this case it was the "Worm:W32/Conflicker.B" which is extremely nasty from what I read on Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conficker) and thankfully Microsoft Security Essentials detected and killed it right away. However, I can't install the software that's supposed to be there. I have fired an email to the manufacturer inquiring about this. My device was ordered from the website and not purchased locally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSG Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Woah. That is a shame that it would contain something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnphase Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 very weird. i did a search on google whether anyone's reported it and found this: http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/11/police-body-cams-found-pre-installed-with-notorious-conficker-worm/ maybe developers just preinstall it now for fun, heh!

omegadot Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I've seen a number of developers that have no concept of security. I would guess their environment doubled as a museum of trendy worms and other malware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimefighter Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Well crap, I shall inform my employer about PC viruses on body cams in case they ever get any (that's if we get a BUDGET)...I work for IL State Police. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
