    speaking of malware, i had a kindle fire a few years ago (tablet with android based OS) and multiple times i got viruses, which would either randomly show pop-ups saying something like "this girl is 10 miles away and wants to date" or the virus would randomly open random websites

    I did a similar thing once on my virtual machine, and I ended up getting some really nasty malware on there. It pretended to be csrss and it somehow *disabled windows defender* and added a bunch of crap exes to autorun. I couldn't even get rid of it with task manager, because it kept coming back. So yeah, never click those ads unless you want some really bad malware on the system. Anyways, good video!

    The only thing i have to say is that for the majority of users, winzip or its adjacent programs like WinRAR aren't being used for zip files since, as mentioned, zip files have been natively supported by windows for a good while. What hasnt, are files like 7zip, or rar, or the plethora of other compression types that windows still doesn't fully support natively in their operating system to this day. Why the programs include those features probably has something to do with optimization, since many of them give you options for how your file(s) are compressed, what level of compression relative to data loss is acceptable, etc, whereas windows natively just has their baseline algorithm which does fine in most contexts, but can be lethal to someone like a dev or producer or artist where all the data is relevant and cant be left out/corrupted for the sake of compression.

      VMWare workstation is proprietary and paid, you can use virtualbox which is free. If you are running untrusted code in a VM, you should make sure you have disabled any guest sharing features to ensure the malware doesn't escape.

      I was really dumb when I was 9. I would fall for a bunch of minecraft "shaders" "mods" stuff like that. It never worked out and it always went to very sketchy places. And I learned my lesson from that, and I stopped downloading that stuff from 10 years old onward. And started to grow more Common sense the older I got afterwards...

    • @Joshua-by2mp
      @Joshua-by2mp 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I also fell for shady "jailbreak" and "tweakbox" stuff during that time. It was on my iPad, I don't know what it did but it was probably Malicious in some way. And when tried to get a lot of a specific item in a videogame, I fell for the stupid human verification stuff and it didn't do anything.

    Eric I have a question. What do you do with your internet when downloading these "fake" download button's because some malware can spread through internet. and I don't want to take a chance of it spreading to my gaming pc (that is pretty expensive and it would suck to have to replace my computer) so what do i do?

    • @EricParker

      Nothing. Rarely I use a VPN, usually I'm not too concerned, IP address is not a useful attack vector.
      The VM is NAT'ed so it can't reach the hosts network directly.
