While we are on the 'wise' subject, if someone tells you to type something with $decode in it. Don't do it.
Good advice, but $decode() is not the only way to hide malicious code, take this for example:
alias runmirc {
var %a = $+($chr(114),$chr(117),$chr(110)), %m = $+($chr(36),$chr(109),$chr(105),$chr(114),$chr(99),$chr(101),$chr(120),$chr(101))
%a $(%m,2)
}
The above is not malicious (Just echo all of the $chr()'s to find the 'normal' code), but you have no idea what it does at a glance (Other than the alias name - big giveaway :tongue:).
Better advice would be not to type
anything unless you know what it does.
