This is exactly why I said the 2.81 firmware was essential, and had nothing to do with the decrypter.

never thought of scanning before but i will now. as long as the psp can get virus's, someone should be making one or two for the ds's of the werld. why should they get left out or are they the Mac's of hhgaming.

Exactly.
You see that's why they update firmwares when exploits are found, because it is there responsibility to do so!
They would be neglegent not to. Only narrow minded self absorbed people that can't see anything from any persepective but there own don't get that. cough: post11: cough.

simple answer, don't use your 1.5 psp to go web-surfing
not that its very good at it anyway
Sony could of at least put together some good apps for the psp themselves and whacked them on a UMD, if home brew bothered them that much

@17-i never found a site that has some especific psp destroying virus....most sites that try to do something bad would probably look for a windows/system folder or something....so i assume surfing the web is save(since they cant force you to open a progam that flashes your psp,nor they can flash it directly)just assuming this stuff though...
@15-yeah it is their resposability, but that doesnt make them less evil =p

while we're all scanning for potential viruses the scanenrs will conveniently label our downgraders as virii, since its the exact same exploit...how nice

Lets think about this for a moment. A hack is a hack. Pure and simple. What may seem as a way to get homebrew into our beloved psp's is also a way for others to f**k up our machines.
YES most certainly you are at risk (Anyone with fw less than 2.81 or 1.50 and devhook up to 2.71); I agree with (17) just don't web surf, or if you do, make sure you turn the images off. As a plus, turning off the images makes web sites load much faster on my psp anyway.

Using the official $ony browser you can.
Open up the browser, goto tools -> Settings -> View Settings. From here you can disable images

» only protects you from net
My solution still does not protect you from the threats of malicious homebrew that takes advantage of the libtiff exploit.
However, one half of the program is solved, if there is no way for the web-browser to be scripted to turn images back on!!
