Public Service Announcement - Xori - Aug 16, 2011
Today I saw way too many horrible cryptography tutorials (luckily none on HF), where a fucking spastic used 'Key' and 'Mutex' synonymously, and most people probably realize where he got that idea.
Mutex, has nothing to do with cryptography, it's a thread synchronization method, and when a RAT client tells you to randomize the mutex you are not feeding a polymorphic crypter like these fuckheads thought they are, you are making sure that only one instance of the same server will be running.
The main source of headache -

Quote:All encryptions are given a "mutex" that mutex, is static on standard encryption, while on polymorphic it is generated with each new compile.
If you ever make a cryptography tutorial, atleast make sure you're not talking out of your ass.
