The first person hasn’t been around on the forum since 2011, I think. The 2nd person, who revived a 4-yr-old thread for no reason, appears to be a spammer. He/she has a hyperlink in a signature line. [EDIT: The former “2nd person” is now gone from the thread.]
(I never click on links from unknown or suspicious individuals, usually those who just started a new acct. and begin posting hyperlinks or reviving years-old threads with no new information. But I do hover the cursor over the links to view the URL without going to the site. Then I open a new browser tab and type in just the name of the site, without adding the dot-com or HTTP part. That gets me to Google search results, instead of going to the potential malware site itself. Then I can read reviews about that site. In the Google results page, I can then add the dot-com part without going to the malware site, to get better search results and more info about what’s really going on with that site. Google and other large search engines now mark potential malware sites or hacked sites with warnings. While Google/Microsoft don’t catch every malware/hacked site, they do catch and mark a lot of them these days.
The search results for the BCODE link in the signature show a “hacked site” warning in the 1st search result, although the warning is from some other website that apparently archives defaced/hacked websites. In any case, none of it sounds good, so I haven’t opened any of the links.)
