SLAM.000: Introduction
INTRO
Welcome to the first issue of the SLAM Magazine, this magazine has as subtitle "The Document X". I'm sure this is just the beginning of a magazine, it will continue until no one reads it anymore or if we are to lazy to continue it. But I think that that will not yet happen :-) This isn't a magazine that has a standard time between two magazines, but I think it will take a couple of months to write the next one. So make sure to look at our distribution points for the latest news and SLAM magazines. Also make sure to check out the VBB magazines for more about some of us. And for more info about the group or us as individuals check the latest Viral Database (VDAT) from Cicatrix. See our distribution points for his homepage, where you can download or even read online his latest VDAT. Another thing I suggest to you, for the rumors and other things that has happened in the Virus World, is the latest God@rky Newsletter, it's real good, you get the latest news about what happened in the scene and that kinda stuff. Also see our distribution points to get the God@rky newsletter.
We suffered a big loss in the virus scene lately: VLAD has quit. They were one of the best virus groups out there. It looks like everybody quits these days, first Phalcom/Skism then NuKE (what a shame :)) and now VLAD. But a good thing that has happened lately is that Immortal Riot merged with Genesis and that they created one of the best virus groups out there called IRG, Immortal Riot/Genesis.
But he, for the ones who think that VBB is dead. I've got great news, there were much things happening lately around VBB. First they got a couple of new members, I'm one of them. And more important, A time ago Dark Night was e-mailed by Liquid Cool. A hacker/phreaker who was with Triple Six (A hacker/phreaker/etc. group) until they got busted. When Triple Six saw that VBB wasn't doing so well he tried to contact Dark Night and said that it maybe was a good idea to create some sort of a sub-group in VBB that was about hacking and that kinda stuff. Liquid Cool could create files to explain how to hack someting. So watch out for VBB #4 that will be out soon.
Back to SLAM. This first issue of SLAM is mainly about Macro Virii, because our assembler coderz hadn't had the time to work at the first issue, next time there will be probably more assembler shit in here, so those assembler coderz out there have to wait.
Another thing I wanna say is, our english isn't that good, because no one from the SLAM crew is from an english speaking country. But I hope you can understand what we are talking about. But eh, don't blame us, we are coderz not english teachers or something.
