# Release Notes for 01-02: (v1.40 - v1.43)

     -- dem0nseed --
      + I added the 'help' command to the remote console. Now you can look up
        the commands while in the console rather than searching for the
        readme. 
      + The server returns more information when the 'Get System Information'
        button is clicked.
      + Fixed a few bugs here-and-there
        - The password protection vulnerability was never fixed because it doesnt
          pose as a problem to me. Not many people use the password protection.
          If you feel it IS a problem, then contact me and I will fix it. But for
          right now I will leave it because if you forget the server password...
          you can get around it *if you know how* ;-)
      + Added the return of an AOL Instant Messenger encoded password!

This archive is an almost-complete reconstruction of the legendary Mega Security (also known as Kobayashi), a premier 90s-era "Trojan Database" where malware authors once showcased their work. After a decade offline, the site was brought back in August 2024 by its original creator, MasterRat, who authorized the Malware Gallery to host this modernized, searchable version of the collection. While the original site remains available for those seeking a nostalgic, old-school experience, we are proud to continue its legacy here. Full credit and thanks go to MasterRat and the retired Mega Security staff for their years of dedicated work in cataloging these historical samples.
