Do you think he'll be back to his old ways afterwards? Hopefully they'd be keeping a close watch on him.

I doubt that's true.

You see, I hold the gmail account that was being sent all the passwords. Until I get contacted by the FBI or someone else, I won't believe it, really.

I don't believe this because if the FBI ever came to his house he would say "Oh snap! da popos!"

then he would pull his gat, and bust cap in dat bitch fo'sho.

It was not!

it doesent let your right click, upload files to a CD, change your background, doesent allow you to go to multiple websites including Newgrounds and the Kittykrew website. It also cripples system restore. Thats harmless?

It deleted the system restore point i had before the virus, too, so maybe you got lucky...

If this is real, I knew it would happen sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to happen this soon. I mean, who was it that got through to the FBI and reported it?

If goldencat was lying, it could be a ploy to make everyone believe he has already been turned in so that everyone stops reporting him.

I don't expect him to go to jail, but I did expect him to lose his computer(s).

Shouldn't''ve messed with the internet, goldencat...as SevenStar and you both told me, the internet is serious business.

This wouldn't surprise me at all. The number of people that were effected, the number of ISP's that were contacted to remove his malicious files, etc. I'm sure it all got passed along to the authorities. What Goldencat was doing was very illegal and he wasn't very discrete about it.

Now, he kinda fucked up since he started spreading password stealing and kiddy porn spreading stuff everywhere, and he got caught now...

... wait, kiddy porn? Where'd you hear that? The desktop/spyware shit wasn't so bad, but if he was doing anything related to kiddy porn, he's very fucked.

In any case, I'll laugh if he goes to jail for this whole virus thing.

I took an interest in this, and did a lot of searching. The absolute MINIMUM is a $1,000 dollar fine. The absolute minimum, and since this is a rather big virus that got many complaints, and caused everyone a lot of time and sometimes money to remove the virus, i reckon he'll get about $5,000 and probation. Copy and paste from some law site below, saw the same thing on other sites too.

Today, in the U.S., the most likely avenue of prosecution is the Federal Computer Abuse Act of 1994 (18 U.S.C. Sec. 1030). The 1994 Computer Abuse Act tries to deal differently with those who foolhaeartedly launch viral attacks and those who do so intending to wreak havoc. To do this, the the Act defines two levels of prosecution for those who create viruses.

** For those who intentionally cause damage by transmitting a virus, the punishment can amount to ten years in federal prison, plus a fine.

For those who transmit a virus with only "reckless disregard" to the damage it will cause, the maximum punishment stops at a fine and a year in prison.

Well he's looking at a lot of violations based on spreading the virus, blackmail, identity theft, and a whole world of other things.
