hey guyz just warning all member to not download any version of Sid from anyother place besides HQ, a friend of mine today stopped buy , and told me that he tried to softmod his xbox with a copy of Sid3,0, when he started the process via splinter cell it went blank and rebooted his xbox and unlocked the HDD, all versions of sid on this site are safe.
we will find out were the contaminated files are hosted, and let you know till we get this sorted for your sake download from hq only, this sould include all homebrew just to be safe. i believe xbins may be safe i dunno
J8994 should be getting the proof soon, as this cant really wait. _________________

WTF! i cannot believe that some one would want to sabotage an xbox? what benefit are they getting from ruining an orignally $300 piece of equipment?
That really sets me off.......

This could be badd for the modding community. We wont get any new crop rolling in because they all dont want to ruin their xboxs. I dont think it will happen but its a possibility.
When we find out all that we need to know, will there be a way to fix all of these badd files on the sites, as we cannot get to all the xboxs to fix them?

I'm compiling MD5 hashes now for Gameshark and Standard AR SID saves. once I"m done listing them all; i'll post them here (unless DJB has them stored somewhere and can quickly post them now). Other than that, please make sure to check your MD5's before transferring to box (or just check the UDATA folder in the .zips and make sure nothing looks retarded). _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."

That's good, coz it really shouldn't be up there in the first place.
