Posted: Sat Jun 02, 2007 3:35 pm Post subject: Cdr virus question |
|
|
Is it possible for a cdr writing program such as Nero, to be hacked so
it would place a virus/trojan on a cdr, but the cdr would appear blank
to the operating system(and NTI's session explorer) ?
How is a cdr determined as blank, is there a specific region which
reads true if its blank or false if its recorded, or does the drive
check a certain area on the cdr for data and if none is found the disc
is assumed blank? |

You've asked before. The answer is still "No - it is not possible". |

If anything is burned, that is reflected in the lead-in and that in turn
indicates the cd is not blank.

Lead-in will indicate whether it's blank or not.
If it were possible to burn something without it refected in the
lead-in, then the file/track cannot be located let alone being executed.
Don't know why you get into this, but remember that just having a
virus/trojan file is harmless unless you execute the virus/trojan. |
