they're all retarded. I still run windows XP with a firewall and browsing sandbox and nothing has ever happened. Windows 7 ( and Vista ) still get security updates through server 2008 R2 you can patch directly into windows update.

>>107590774
>Do you think I should use Windows xp?
No. You shouldn't actually be using any kind of computer at all if you're retarded enough to, as you say, "keep 6 figures of crypto on a chrome extension".
That being said, you should be pretty safe as long as you keep the browser up to date. The OS doesn't really matter much in terms of browser security.

>>107590786
Tails is for tech illiterate people. Not much elsethey can do, though.

it's funny because nobody bothers with malwares for the lolz anymore. if you can't scam somebody out of their retirement, it's not worth it. and in that sense, 11 is just as vulnerable to cves as 7.
just install and updated browser and a decent av. good to go.

>>107590812
you shouldn't be keeping six figures in your local browser. your actual question is

>>107590836

Why? You are claiming that as long as I don't run unknown exes I will be fine.

>>107590876
I'm not op. but running unknown exes in win11 is also a great way to lose those six figures.

>>how exactly
Well, you see, over time people find holes and these holes are not getting fixed.
Just the list for XP won't fit in this textbox. That's not even the "how", that's just CVE numbers.

>could you show me, perhaps on a vm how you hack a Windows7 box?
Sure. Plug it into the internet and start counting.
Typically occurs in less than fourty min.

>>could you elaborate? maybe give me a link so i could click on and test your theory?
Sure. Lets ignore how about 95.6% of new malware variants were targeted at Windows systems, which include older versions like Windows 7.
https://www.xda-developers.com/connected-windows-xp-internet-didnt-survive-long/
Don't see a particular study on 7 at a casual glance. I can assure you it's presence in botnets is very common, spam in my logs are only beaten by XP. Almost all from residential ranges.

>How come every online discussion about WindowsXP and 7 inevitably degenerates into this?
Because some of us have to deal with the mess you make when your computer gets compromised and starts attacking things?

>>107591074

But there's a lot of things you don't notice so this isn't entirely surprising.

>>107591050
And the literally hours of backscroll that's happening every second in logs, from tens of thousands of unique IP's, all patterning to botnets running on XP. From residential ranges. In the US.
The ones from china and russia I assume are intentionally part of the botnet....

>>107591092
>none have been infected.
That you've noticed.
But if that machine is compromised, using it to detect the compromisation is a bit retarded.
The botnets for isn't as large as XP. But they there. Give it another 5 years and there'll be a CVE list longer than XPs too.

>>107591074
>Sure. Plug it into the internet and start counting.
>Typically occurs in less than fourty min.

wrong
99% of people nowadays dont have routable ip's anymore, this isn't the 90s
most people are behind a cgnat'ed modem/router now so it's completely immune to chink skiddie port scanners
you are confusing this with a vps situation where the system is completely naked online. it's not even in the same ballpark.

burden of proof is on you, not on anons who are running these for years without issues.

>>107590811
> Windows 7 ( and Vista ) still get security updates through server 2008 R2 you can patch directly into windows update.
Careful with this, one update (last july) of server 2012 R2 for win 8.1 was causing an early boot failure and was seemingly intentional by Microsoft.

All the tech journos are retards all the "ooohh its *DEPRECATED* dont use it its not made in Rust either" are retards and then all the companies that want you to keep buying new software which they constantly put more ads in and make worse and have jeets vibecode it are all retards

Indeed old mature software that end its lifecycle is often the most stable and secure software there is because theyre no longer making any new bugs
And considering that due to the 2008 R2 server is the same kernel as Win7 and it still keeps being supported I guess still some critical software run on it, the latest win7 compatible update was released 8 days ago (KB5071501) so its literally as up-to-date as windows 10 or 11 is but with less bullshit so less attack vectors less bugs

And at this point you dont really *have to* even keep updating it, people dont fucking get that if you kill all the services close the ports there simply isnt a hole for the attacker to come in from
Meanwhile 10/11 call home so much they have million open connections to MS to send your grandmas phone info to the microsoft jeets brother in a call center in hyderabad and hoover up whatever google play cards you have happened to wave in front of your webcam
So there is plenty of attack vectors

>>107590735
couldn't be more right people are just retarded NPCs who parrot what they hear and when the retards have the voice in this clown world retarded shit is what we are doomed to hear

you could use windows 7 for the next 50 years and itd be still fine
its the last windows os that doesnt actively try to fuck you up and call home all the time and stop you from disabling those so you can easily disable services and have nothing open to the outer world

>>107590735

he actually pre-emptively answered all your usual retarded "gotchas" because you're clearly someone who doesnt understand how anything actually works

>>107591401
Yeah, ram is just very expensive now and it affected ssd prices too slightly
It is a good idea though
It also makes sure that it doesnt matter how bads thing get in the future they can never force you to upgrade to some vibecoded windows 13 that smells of curry and is made in javascript and rust
but only as long as you still have the hardware for it
Like Nvidia RTX 3000 series is the latest GPU you can get the 4000/5000 no longer support windows 7

>>107591463
SAAR VAT ARE YOU DOING SAAR UPDATE THE VINDOWS NOW

>>107591417
I mean you can run Win2000 today if you are fine with what it can do

In Linux the X11 window manager is what 30 years old, and only now theyre trying to replace it with Wayland and they didnt manage to even make feature parity and made it worse lmao
Also Linux is going into some really retarded direction if you listen to the maintainers of many of those distros its possibly going to be even worse than the direction of windows

There are literally millions of bots scouring the internet with automatic malware delivery if they find anything vulnerable, there are literal marketing companies built around bot spamming.

XP indeed does expose services which unpatched can be attacked but those can be closed, and again like the user you replied to already said that doesnt matter if the ip isnt exposed directly to internet

>Explaining it's prevailence in the real world.
Already explained to you in the very first post, here >>107591345 and >>107590883 too

You are just too illiterate and retarded so you're doubling down, youre probably some type of brown possibly a jeet
The reason its prevalent because ppl running old xp machines often are some jeets in the third world running sex.exe

And again yes some old office machines in durga-soft that would be directly exposed to internet and unpatched would indeed have wide open attack vectors, but this is not the case with Win7 if its updated

And we weren't talking about durgasoft pajeets but people who know what they're doing, if you are behind a router or have disabled the vulnerable services, you are fine

This is not some matter of argument either you are just a retard who dont understand how anything works
Like if you do not have a port open in your computer a vulnerable service YOU CAN NOT CONNECT TO A CLOSED PORT that is not how it works

Maybe stop coming to technology forum and commenting when all you can do is larp like a jeet and clearly dont actually know anything

Most annoying people of all are not even retarded trannies but people who pretend to know about things they dont, i never understood that. Very brown feature

Correct, and XP is the last Windows OS that can operate with zero ports open without sacrificing stability. That's literally how I run it, and I have Sygate Personal Firewall Pro running on top for extra safety concerning the other sruff tgat closed ports alone won't help with.

>>107591613
security def was a huge issue in the xp days and earlier
everything was very much unsecured and there were a lot of bugs early on
it wasnt also taken as seriously because internet wasnt a serious thing yet
like being stupid and getting a virus was something you just got rid of by wiping the PC no big deal
its was very different to today
thats how you got those stories about some 14 year old "leet hacker" hacking into NSA in 80s or 90s because those were literally like trying a random server and typing in user: admin password: nsa and nice you "hacked" it

And if you are, magically, the one person who's not actually joining the botnet el rapido then your experiences isn't really representative of the overal picture...

The *fact* remains, the presence of XP on the internet only results in problems. Usually for those not running XP.

>>107591894
Can you explain how malware is going to magically bypass my router and install itself onto my PC? If these OSes are that insecure then there should be publically documented, reproduceable steps that lead to this happening that you can provide a source for.

>>107591894
Different anon here.

If nothing else, the prevalence of XP botnets in certain countries (gatekeepmaxxing here) has allowed me to find dozens of vics for my Optix Pro client, which in turn I secure with my own password and use as socks5 servers.

Long live the botnet, long live XP.

>>107591940
>Can you explain how malware is going to magically bypass my router and install itself onto my PC?
For your precise setup. Not really.
I can provide several possible loose overviews. Including most routers being vulnerable.

>If these OSes are that insecure then there should be publically documented
the insecurity is thoroughly documented. That's why the autonomous exploitation is a trivial capability held by many.

>reproduceable steps that lead to this happening that you can provide a source for.
Connect it to the internet. Seems pretty reproducable to me. If you had something worth taking a swing at maybe you'd be able to collect some evidence for yourself. Doesn't even need to be 'worth'. Just an open 22 will do. I'm sure it won't take too long to see that IP trying on it.

>>107591992
I use XP machines online fairly regularly (not for anything serious though) which is why It'd be good to have specifics, when I've checked I don't see anything running in task manager that shouldn't be there.

>Just an open 22 will do
Why would I be port forwarding to a system known to be exploitable? What's being implied ITT is that it can happen without doing that and the mere act of connecting these systems to a network is hazardous.

>>107591824
Yeah, text or screenshots are both fine, show what the prevalence of WinXP machines in botnets looks like

>And this kind anon also explained it
Yes we talked about open ports already

>US residential ranges
that one I honestly missed that u said US
Yeah I wouldnt except a lot of avg users be using XP these days just power users who know what they're doing, so lot of XP machines would possibly mean some clusters of i dont even know, old office machines or even some industrial controllers or point of sale systems or who knows

But you supposedly had logs which showed what a windows XP botnet specifically looks like compared to any other version, as you were able to attest to their "prevalence" through them, so im interested how does it look like
So far, you've been only talk

Now even your language is degenerating towards becoming jeet babble :D

Why are you jeets always such larpers and you think like if you use the correct words then you are the professional or something, but none of the things you say ever make sense

Do you just do nothing at work when the jeet HR hired you through some H1B scam, I mean in a big company I guess you can just slip through cracks and you pretend to do things but never actually do? Then at the coffee room throw around few words like CVE and patterns and go back pretending to work?

>>107592161
>when I've checked I don't see anything running in task manager that shouldn't be there.
Implying you can trust a compromised machine to give you uncompromised data?

>Why would I be port forwarding to a system known to be exploitable?
It's not "ports" that are exploitable. It's the service on the other end listening to it.
22 is commonly used for SSH. Which is typically solid. However, as this is used to issue commands as if you're sat in front of the machine, it represents a juicy target. You don't actually need an SSH server running on 22 to be listening on it.

>that and the mere act of connecting these systems to a network is hazardous.
Essentially. Yes.
There's gangs of roaming softwares seeking it for low hanging fruit. It's the era of tailored exploits where you're fingerprinted and payloads delivered by services. Almost all software spec'd for it isn't safe to allow online...

>>107592227
>Yeah, text or screenshots are both fine, show what the prevalence of WinXP machines in botnets looks like
I can *easily* show the prevailence of botnets...
To pattern attack trends to determine which of the undeclared, and inaccurately declared, are XP would take a lot more effort than simply copy and paste as you'd need to figure out what they're trying to do, then try and find which botnet is currently trying that en mass...
I'll waste my time with a dump if you want to pick through the mess to find it.

And I can do it that well, it stays done. On the whole. Which then allows me to start on the things that haven't happened yet - so when they happen that's already done too...

even palemoon explicitly does not support winxp. why do you insist on using this deprecated os?
https://www.palemoon.org/systemrequirements.shtml

Windows 7 is so old there are people in high school that are born after it. With Windows XP there are people who have masters degrees that were born after it.

You really should.
You not only do stupid things, you advise others to join in.

The amount of smug leddit trannies posting so blatant bullshit in this thread just because they are so obsessed about people refusing to use objectively worse software (modern windows and troonix) is truly interesting.

Hey, I've been trying to get in touch with you. Want to beta test a gta vi early release?

Windows XP is not safe because you can use it online and be convinced by strangers online to use a different less secure operating system.
The social engineering threat is constant and it takes discipline to stay with XP, most aren't cut out for it, and switch to more telemetry based operating systems.

>explains how it can be hacked
>"n-no that one doesnt count i will just be offline forever!!!"
How come every online discussion about WindowsXP and 7 inevitably degenerates into this? Both sides are insanely retarded. Why are zoomers like this?

Wait, are you the esl turdskin who keeps claiming to be English whenever people call out your esl drivel

>Well, you see, over time people find holes and these holes are not getting fixed.
Irrelevant, since you are unreachable by most attackers by default, therefore your operating system doesn't really matter.
>Sure. Plug it into the internet and start counting.
You trannies keep repeating the same thing for more than a decade at this point and so far nothing ever happened to me. Its almost as if you were all just fear-mongering faggots who know nothing about computers.
>Granted, Eric turned off the firewall
Ah yes, the all-known strategy that linux trannies and tech bros use to drive people away from better software. Simple lies.

>Bro there's viruses, you just can't see them.
>Bro you have covid, which is super dangerous, but you don't have any symptoms (still need to get the vaxxxx though)
lmao kys retards. viruses always have an effect. whether they use your cpu to mine xmr or your network to do ddos shit.
>inb4 THEY PATCHED TASK MANAGER SO YOU CANT TELL
cpu usage comes with increased fan noise and network activity comes with extra blinking lights on the router.
you people are literally getting scared over things that aren't there and then you use your overactive imagination to gaslight people into thinking there's magic viruses that you can't detect
you might as well just go to some african village preaching about how there's ghosts and they need to do shaman rituals to drive them away. maybe you'd get more acceptance there.

Why are there discussions about XP and 7 at all? There is literally no valid reason to use either unless you have a computer which has this crap installed from like 2007 or something. I have a Windows 7 laptop and I still use it to rip CDs because it's my only computer with a CD drive, but if I was actually going to use that computer for something (not happening, it's too weak for anything beside ripping CDs) I'd install another OS.

Yeah I plan on doing just that. I'm not taking the digital vaccine, suckstart a shotgun nigger you don't get to tell me what I can and can't do with my own computer.
