Hi there, thanks for the interest in my site. (Drsolly I was sad to not recieve any more replies from you, I had hoped to keep dialogue open:( ) I pretty much agree with what Gadi stated and definitly the intention of the site is white-hat. A simple google search will satisfy most peoples blackhat/vx needs much better than my site ever could. If you login and look around you will see a few things: 1.) It requires a login to access samples and the way its configured they cant be downloaded automatically from worms, etc. (if someone finds a bug in this let me know, ill fix it) 2.) Accesses are logged (limited usefulness) but its simple for me to turn accounts / IP's off if I see a problem. 3.) You'll see the focus is on analysis, identification and signatures rather than simply a malware distribution site 4.) I think im providing some useful services out there. I submit copies of my samples/analysis to the A/V companies and others like ISC 5.) I've begun converstations with other projects to see how we can collaborate (mwcollect, nepenthes, etc.) 6.) I don't develop malware (unless you count exploits as malware but I dont distribute these here) Thankfully the country I am in still allows free speech and this thing isn't illegal according to my research and the opinion of lawyers I have spoken with. Gadi its true we dont know each other, however I think we have some friends in common. I'd look forward to buying you a beer in Vegas this summer :) Anyway I look forward to hearing more opinions, input and suggestions. (contributions hopefully?) V.
