Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says: “Calm down, I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: “OK, now what?”

This lead me to lots of False positives. Yesterday then when I scanned I for some reason thought I was seeing the same thing. I mean upd.php and config.php seem like two perfectly normal files...

So I use LinkedIn … I’m not sure why? I’m not looking for a job and well I don’t find it that great to make business contacts. The groups I used be a part of I felt were extremely spammy and ended up with me just turning them off. I kind of don’t see the point unless you’re in HR or a recruitment agency then it must be a case of DROOL you mean I can just find people here?.
