If coins are stolen....we can freeze them until a full investigation is completed.

Who will play judge Dredd?

yeah, I guess there should be guidelines when a chain roll back can be allowed,
I think it's only when there are major security flaws in the software, like we had one ~10 days ago,
not when there are individual cases of security breaches.
Otherwise, NXT would be more frozen and rolled back than actually working each day

Seriously, how can it be that the NXT Client posted on nextcoin.org is modified and if actually so, still the thread is not deleted by the administration?

Impossible to roll back the blockchain after some certain times because of time travel paradox.

In continuation of recent discussion about Voting System and destruction of coins... While we r waiting for the release, we could discuss another moral dilemma:

Should we use power of Nxt network to attack those who attack us? I mean ddosing ddosers / black PR sites and similar things, we won't attack those who don't attack us, of coz...

and protect the weak and the poor !

Thanks for wesleys suggestion, I threw the Nxt$Crypto class through a decomplier and read the first 10 lines of code to make sure I didn't have it <sigh of relief>

Can I suggest that all forum mods are requested to automatically remove any 'un-sanctioned' download links..

Unfortunately when people quote other peoples posts they can 'edit' the quoted contents and someone blind to this could read the link as a repost of a genuine one - which may be what happened here and then the post was deleted / re-edited by the owner.

@Jean-Luc: Unfortunately my computer (running 0.4.8 ) was out of memory again this morning Firefox had eating all the memory (1.2GB).

Yes, they can. And will.

It's client side issue.

Can anyone explain why this transaction : id= 17268617256988246673 didn't go through? http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=2000&tra=17268617256988246673

It was in a block 15077040953933790557 , other transaction in this block worked.
Just this one who don't work. It's not confirmed and i don't see why

Nice to see block explorer back !!

Got a nice surprise - I forged my first block

and I only have 60k nxt.

[grex]

It's a decentralized system, the community should coordinate itself. I'll do my best to add all API calls that we need for clients, this is the only thing I'm going to do.

Please add the API calls that enable a forger to verify that the forging process continues when the browser is closed.

Much appreciated!   

+1 would be great!

Good morning everybody.  I just got up from bed and found a PM to me from somebody who says they've been hit and lost around $7000.  This poster says he wrote me because he felt I would not ridicule or judge him.  He is apparently embarrassed to post his experience here because he used a very weak password that was patterned after one he uses routinely at many locations.  Of particular interest is his statement, "So I checked my zip file and got a different checksum than I think I'm supposed to, in fact, one that isn't posted anywhere on the forum."  I've asked for a copy of his infected file and will check the SHA-256 on it if I get it.  I also gave him step-by-step instructions on how to check it himself.

I applaud the ongoing efforts to flush out how the bad file got posted.  We need to start a similar movement to flush out just who has been hit, and if there is going to be any kind of reimbursement plan.  PaulyC is getting made whole, which is a good thing.  But we need to start thinking about if everybody will be, and that is a chicken-and-egg question until we know the scope of the heist.  In this vein, how hard is it to come up with a list of accounts involved in transactions since the bad client came out?

In a security breech situation, I think it is very important to not castigate people involved for any poor security habits they exhibited such as weak passwords, so they will feel more comfortable in coming forth with badly needed facts.
