my personal health and the health of my computer go hand in hand. don't use my metaphor against me. heh]]>Jan 17th 2008 11:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/First of all, understand what Insignia is...

Insignia is a product produced exclusively for best buy which is usually Chinese made and extremely cheap. This inlcudes HDMI (and other HD cables), converters, adapters,etc. Best Buy marks these items up usually over 300% in order to place them right below the compeitor's prices.

An Insignia Photo Frame might cost $20 - $50 less than the lowest price compeititor.

All this stuff is low quality and buying it is playing russian roulette with your money. I actually hope this makes big headline news because considering what BEST LIES charges for Geek Squad service, it isn't illogical to consider the possibility that they are poisoning PC's just to get people to use their crappy Geek Squad service.

Next time I see one of those stupid volkswagons I'm running them off the road ]]>Jan 17th 2008 12:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 17th 2008 12:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/

Great delivery method for getting all those geeks that say "I don't need AV because I only download stuff I know is safe".

I say be ware of ANY device that mounts as a USB storage drive, there are more and more things on the market that do this now.]]>Jan 17th 2008 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 17th 2008 1:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 17th 2008 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/
Not only did it infect my computer after attaching the USB cable, it also copied itself onto any media cards I had inserted.

The trojan Kaspersky found was "Virus.Win32.VB.bu". The hidden files on the frame were EXPLORER.exe and Autorun.inf.

Does anyone know if that's the same virus found on the Insignia one? ]]>Jan 17th 2008 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.flickr.com/photos/getofab/309674717/]]>Jan 17th 2008 4:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 17th 2008 7:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 25th 2008 1:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/17/infection-alert-insignia-10-4-inch-photo-frame-kindly-bundled-w/Jan 30th 2008 5:44PM
