It actually looks very cool, I just wish it didn't have all the hacking stuff.

Somebody in that group must really be desperate. No doubt the desire to be respectable is hard to ignore.

Hey swccman, I would recommend you go with Backtrack instead. It is the gold standard security Linux distribution with the same tools (plus much more) and it is legitimate. No need to download this which is from a non-reputable source and could contain unwanted software.

Hey SumpterCarter, if you like how it looks but don't want any of the hacking stuff, just use Ubuntu! That is the legitimate Linux distribution that this is based off. You can have it look and function exactly the same without the hacking tools.

Only a fool would install what may very well by design contain malware.

Given Anon/LulzSec's several failed attempts at gaining control of several botnets, this would do nicely as a means for building their own.

Never trust an unrepentant thief to safeguard your interests.

You sound as if the malicious hackers have all they want and do not desire more. Linux can be hacked too.

Anon is brother to none; and, this "excellent work" may very well be a Trojan Horse.

Well, no, as a security professional I would certainly be out of a job if I thought that! I am simply recommending exactly what SumpterCarter wants, which is this OS without the "hacking stuff". That would be Ubuntu, the most used Linux distribution that is the underlying system for this AnonOS. And for what it's worth, from a security perspective, you are still better off with a linux platform than Windows/Mac. While windows has become much better, it is still the most targeted OS.

That does not negate the fact that no OS is uncrackable, which was TheOldTopkick's point. It is quite possible that Anon's distro has been tampered with so as create zombies for Anon's use.

Still editing your posts to materially alter their meaning after they've drawn approbation, I see.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't believe that the OP made any sort of suggestion to the contrary. I was perplexed by TheOldTopkick's response myself.
If I dispute one single point in a post, that should not be taken as an indication that I agree/disagree with any other point made by that poster or anyone else in the thread. Or anywhere else. Ever.
