--------------------------------------------------------------------

The bugs crawled out of everyone's woodwork in the US in May,
so it seemed appropriate to devote this issue of the Crypt Newsletter
to similar themes: paranoia, overthrow, naked fear, the mass
psychosis gripping statistically significant portions of the
citizenry, creeping evil and ill-defined techno-menace.  You'll also
be thrilled by the laff-a-minute sayings of Crazy Dan and his continuing
excellent adventure on the information superhighway courtesy
of SATAN.  And so as not to be left behind by the mainstream media
in its reactive, knee-jerk coverage of the emergence of the
New World Order, the Crypt Newsletter has unearthed "Behold A
Pale Horse," a fascinating, scary book out of the land of
the militias which is either a lost volume of "X-Files" scripts
or a completely unfastened link between the sinister TriLateral
commission, silent computer weapons for a quiet war, UFOs and microchip
tagging of all patriots deemed traitors.  Don't dare skip the
informative New World Order glossary, either. Finally, there are
pithy comments on Americans and secrecy and one final crazy - this time
from the anti-virus and computer security industry - warning us of
looming techno-anarchy.  The truth is out there.  Trust no one.


DAN'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE CONTINUES

Last Crypt Newsletter, we left rock 'n' rollin,' groovy-lookin'
computer security whiz-bang Dan Farmer, his cyberpal Vietse
Somethingorother, and their Internet security probing hacker
tool from the Inferno, SATAN, triumphant astride the information
superhighway.

In April, Farmer was able to pull off a promotional coup of
Michelangelo virus proportion. With some good woe-betide-us
press, SATAN - although an almost indigestible lump of
cobbled-together software and documentation for those not
equipped with Sun/Sparc workstations beside their water
beds - became an instant "ware." Everyone in
computing creation wanted SATAN, even if they hadn't the slightest
idea what it was.

In the May 14 issue of Los Angeles Times magazine reporter
Bob Sipchen cast Farmer as a flaunting, techno-lotus eater,
prone to outstanding quotes like:

"I'm bisexual.

"I was interested in implements of mass destruction [in the US
Marine Corps] -- from an academic point of view.  Being able
to blow somebody's head off at 500 meters with an M-16,
that's an interesting skill to have."

"The more I got to know people as people, rather than abstractions,
the more going out and killing them wasn't something I could
do."

Sipchen writes Farmer declared himself a conscientious objector
during the Gulf War and enrolled at Purdue were he subsequently
got his ticket punched in independent study under computer
security expert Gene Spafford. Farmer is also into S&M, sexually
open relationships and has a girlfriend (This is too choice!)
named Muffy.  While this might _seem_ outrageous - normally worth
a grimace, an outraged Congressman or two and a grab for the roll of
Tums in Middle America - consider the Times magazine's audience
as essentially a cohort of the West Hollywood-Beverly Hills-Brentwood-
Sunset Strip districts of EL LAY, where a flaunting, big-haired
bisexual into sadomasochism, ritual scarification, switch-hitting
and crummy poetry would not be out of place.

Set opposite Farmer in the cover story was the ubiquitous SRI
pope of computer security, Donn Parker. The story veered
briefly to mention Parker regrets jailed hacker Kevin Poulsen
was able to gain employment at SRI and carry on his underground
work while at the installation.  "His hiring was kept a secret
from me," Parker claims.  The reporter creates the impression Parker
considers Farmer, like Poulsen, an object of distaste - someone
whose philosophy is "tainted" by the shopworn hacker bromide
"all information  wants to be free."

" . . . that's an infantile, idealistic concept that is
contrary to capitalist free enterprise.  I think that's just
an impractical pipe dream.  The kind of people who think that
way are not in the real world," said Parker.

Capitalistically, however, Farmer brags in the article he
can bring down $2-3,000/day as a security consultant.

Sipchen's piece was a cracking great read but it's difficult to
judge how real it was.  Simply, the problem lies in the reporter's
characterization of Dan Farmer.  No one could really be such a
sickening piece of work and live.


FBI PUBLIC NOTES ON ALLEGED CRIMINAL HACKING BY KEVIN MITNICK

Levord Burns, special FBI agent in charge of task force used
in arrest of Kevin Mitnick, wrote these notes on computer network
intrusions attributed to the hacker in an affidavit which
has now been distributed widely.

On February 11, 1995, " . . . a computer system listed as
bi.fish.com (belonging to Dan Farmer) is hacked into by
gkremen@netcom.com and computer programs
are compressed and transferred to another machine," wrote Burns
in the document.

"Files are later transferred to the Internet provider The WELL.
E-mail is read and hacker backdoor tools allowing the intruder to
obtain root access are initiated.  Programs to erase all accounting
log files of intruder are activated."

Later, Burns records the hacker, thought to be Mitnick, invading
the Internet provider Internix where he "changes directories into that
of New York Times writer John Markoff.  Intruder reads E-mail and
then deletes the mail from the system."

Two days later, "the intruder [again] logs into internex.net,
then into escape.com where he changes the permissions . . . of
writer John Markoff to make his account world accessible to
anyone.  Proceeds to delete files from the system.  Activates
backdoor hacking tools to obtain root superuser status on
machine."

These activities, writes Burns, were "narrowed . . . to Apartment
No. 107 and Apartment No. 108, located in the Players Apartment
Complex . . . Raleigh, North Carolina. "  Further investigation, noted
Burns, showed that #107 was "leased by a new lessee," the suspect
Kevin Mitnick.


BABBLERS INEXHAUSTIBLE PREPARE INSTITUTIONS FOR OVERTHROW AND
EVERYTHING FLIES SKYWARD UNDER BLOWS FROM THE UTTERLY MAD -or-
NOTES FROM THE FRINGE UNDERGROUND BOUND IN ONE NEAT VOLUME

While combing the black and fearsome wastes of the BBS underground
over the past three years, the Crypt Newsletter has always been
confounded by vast amounts of superficially impenetrable revolution 
philosophy.

After all, how _does_ one respond appropriately to a long electronic
mail discussion into which suddenly erupts:

"Do not ever believe that grown men meet on a regular basis just
to put on fancy robes, hold candles and glad-hand each other. George
Bush, when he was initiated into Skull & Bones, did not lie naked in
a coffin with a ribbon tied around his genitalia and yell out
the details of all his sexual experiences because it was fun.  He
had much to gain by acceptance into the order . . . "

Frankly, it's a show stopper.

Usually, when colliding with something like this, it was accompanied
by cut-and-paste text files reputedly stolen from government military
sites.  The files invariably contain extensive "proof" of sinister
conspiracies being perpetrated on Joe Average by shadowy forces -
the Bilderberg Group, the Jason Society, the Knights of Malta -
lurking behind the UN, the Presidency and the Pentagon and armed
by the techno-might academic slave-lackey elites from MIT, MITRE Corp.
or other think tanks supply.  Usually as a bonus, something called
the Protocols of Zion is tossed in:  an ant-Semitic, almost unreadable
tract, which establishes the presence of an inimical secret order.

At the time, very little of it made sense, due to the hodgepodge
nature of information storage on the dynamic network of
professionally and semi-professionally run bulletin board systems
which emulate and hang off the Fidonet, and the fact that while
the material exists, it's far from squarely in the network mainstream.

However, now the Crypt Newsletter has "Behold A Pale Horse" (Light
Technology) by William Cooper, a book published in 1991 which
put into hard copy a reasonably linear account of what's troubling the US
as filtered through the eyes of tax resistors, the militias, fringe
survivalists, UFO groups and the starkly paranoid.

Cooper, a burly-looking ex-military man, even alludes as to how
he dispersed the material from "Behold A Pale Horse" into the
computer networks and hands of like-minded friends when he became
convinced men in black were going to take him down.

He writes "I knew that I was being checked out . . . two Defense
Investigative Services men showed up at my house and confiscated all
my floppy disks.  The only thing that prevented them from taking my
computer was the fact that it was an XT with no hard drive.  I
knew that my plan had worked because they didn't take _me_."

"Behold A Pale Horse's" pages are all stamped with a "Top Secret"
label. Cooper describes the strategy of the Bilderberg Group, "silent
weapons for quiet wars," developed from the thinking of "Amschel
Rothschild."  Complete descriptions of the construction of concentration
camps for US citizens are revealed.  Cooper insists that they'll come
for us on national holidays or weekends, so if you want to stay
out of a cage, never be home at these times.  There is a rallying
cry for open action in Oklahoma because of a tax law which Cooper
writes requires residents "to declare everything they own to the tax
collector . . . [this will] make life easy for the gun grabbers."

"It is time to stand up with a weapon and scream 'ENOUGH!'  It is
time to draw the line.  It is time to make decisions and carry
them out.  It is time to resist at any and all cost."

There is a fold-out chart of the complete roster of the
Trilateral commission and associated groups which also includes lists
of the current or past deans of many of the nation's finer
universities.  Cooper establishes links between the US military and
Satan.  Prozac is a nefarious drug of mind control developed by
the CIA for use in programming citizens into murderous attack
zombies.  Microchips to control, trace and coerce citizens have
been developed and implemented, perhaps by the Marin County
Humane Society.

"Your job is to make sure your Congressmen and Senators are educated
on [these issues].  GET TO WORK - NOW!" writes Cooper.

Even this doesn't really do justice to the flavor of Cooper's book.
Reading it once gives the impression that either by accident, or
clever subtlety, "Behold A Pale Horse" is the great unifying field
theory behind the voices of the maddened crowd.  If you take it even
half-seriously, "Pale Horse" makes the back of your head itch from the
unseen eyes of the Bilderbergs, the IRS, the UN, the secret societies.

It seems to be selling briskly.


PUBLIC FAVORS SECURITY, QUESTION SECRECY

by Steven Aftergood, saftergood@igc.apc.org
[Reprinted from the May 1995 issue of the Secrecy & Government
Bulletin, Federation of American Scientists, 307 Massachusetts
Avenue, NE; Washington, D.C. 20002]

A poll of US public attitudes has found that "Overall
support for security and counter-espionage measures is quite
strong.  Only in terms of the classification of secrets does
the majority favor the anti-security position."

A survey last year found that 56 percent of the public
believes that too many documents are classified.  At the same
time, however, 76 percent support a "high level of secrecy"
when it comes to protecting technologies with military applications.

The poll was commissioned by the Department of Defense
Personnel Security Research Center (PERSEREC) in Monterey,
Calif.  The report on the survey, entitled, "Public Attitudes
Towards Security and Counter-Espionage Matters in the Post
Cold War Period (November 1994) is available from the
Secrecy & Government Bulletin for $2.

Confronted with the proposition that "Given the world situation,
the government protects too many documents by classifying them
as Secret and Top Secret," 13.9 percent of the respondents
strongly agreed, 42 percent agreed, 17.1 percent neither agreed
nor disagreed, 17.5 percent disagreed, 4.4 percent strongly
disagreed and a scrupulous 5 percent said they "don't know."

Public attitudes toward secrecy and security policies such as
background checks were also correlated in the survey with a
variety of social factors such as attitudes toward government
and military, patriotism, political orientation, religious
sentiment including a belief in Bible inerrancy, concern
with civil liberties, crime, obedient children, personal
freedom, deviance and misanthropy.

Of course, polls can be devised to confirm any prejudice that
the pollster may have. 74 percent of the public knows _that_.
But the PERSEREC survey has every appearance of methodological
rigor.  Thus, "a factor analysis with a varimax rotation does
indicate that there is not a simple and general security
dimension" (p.2) -- which seems indisputable.

While acknowledging public concern about over-classification,
PERSEREC director Roger P. Denk concluded that it "It appears
the current government personnel security policy in connection
with granting access to classified information is in synch
with the climate of public opinion."


PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF THE VULCAN DEATH GRIP:  VIRUS WRITER
MARK LUDWIG AND ANTI-VIRUS VENDOR DAVID STANG LOCKED IN
STRUGGLE BETWEEN THE COGWHEELS SEPARATING NOW AND ETERNITY

In a wire news story in April from the desk of the Arizona
Daily Star, Mark Ludwig is profiled as a virus-writer and
vendor who said he wrote "The Little Black Book of Computer
Viruses" (American Eagle) in 1991 to "break down false concepts
and wrong ways of thinking."  Of course, none of this is
breaking news to long time readers of the Crypt Newsletter.

However, Ludwig has also been the recipient of a roiling
hellbroth of animosity for his computing blasphemies, a stream
of calumny and vilification which shows little sign of abating
even in 1995.

An unnamed virus researcher calls the book similar to child
pornography, Ludwig a lunatic. But, Ludwig counters,
it pays the bills and, further, viruses can be instructive.
"Computer viruses are a legitimate topic of scientific inquiry . . ."
Ludwig is attributed as telling the Star.

There is also some discussion of Natas, a more recent
archetypal nasty virus designed purely to smash data.  The
Star goes on to report - cribbing from the book "The Virus
Creation Labs," actually - Natas was initially spread inadvertently
in Mexico City by an anti-virus software agent.

Ludwig insists, though, he's never written a virus like Natas, nor
would he.

". . . [Ludwig] would sing the praises of viruses because he's
a virus author and sees himself as some kind of revolutionary
and overthrower of systems," the Star quotes David Stang of Norman
Data Defense. Stang adds, "[The Little Black Book] is a how-to on computer
terrorism."  In the article, and also pulled almost verbatim
from "Virus Creation Labs," Stang is credited with saving the
Secret Service from Satan Bug - here misnamed as "Satan" - when it's
network went down for about "three days" in 1993. "[Stang] later
hired a San Diego teen, nicknamed Priest, who wrote Satan [Bug] and
Natas [viruses], and put him to work on virus solutions," supplies
the Star.

Stang insisted to the Star, Ludwig "is taking steps in the direction
of overthrowing the US government . . . He is an anarchist!"

There is mention of the Stealth Boot family of computer
viruses, hacks traced directly to Mark Ludwig's original
"Little Black Book" Stealth boot sector virus. Joe Wells,
a wizened, diminutive virus researcher for IBM, is quoted
as saying Stealth Boot B is one of the 10 most common viruses, and
is a productivity leech, rendering Windows unusable on infected
machines.  Stealth Boot B is 95 percent the original Ludwig Stealth
model, insists Wells.

Behind the scenes, the Star reporter commented Stang waxed almost
messianic on the controversy surrounding the employment of virus
writer, Priest.  If there was a way to bring the virus writer to the
side of good, as a temporary guardian of the lad, he tried.

Recently, Norman Data Defense announced a cooperative agreement with
Thunderbyte Anti-virus.  Together the companies intend to pool
resources in the crusade against computer virus contagion, is the
word, according to the corporate boilerplate describing the matter.
When anti-virus companies pool resources, it's generally seen as an
advance to the rear, so to speak.

Yet, Norman Data has reportedly been successful in pulling in
a lucrative and hefty government contract for anti-virus service.
The front runner in this horse race had been McAfee Associates.
Observers warn, though, that the dust hasn't quite settled on
the affair.

Although Stang apparently continues his feud with Mark Ludwig,
behind the scenes the anti-virus vendor continues to send complimentary
copies of his virus information database, VBase, to the "revolutionary."
According to the Star's reporter, Stang became incoherent with
rage when told he was given a credit in the latest edition of
Ludwig's "Little Black Book," ending the interview.  Ludwig intends
to publish a volume called "The Giant Black Book of Computer Viruses"
this summer but declined to add if Stang would also receive credit
in it.

Finally, after the gnashing of teeth and insane shouting had ceased,
Ludwig, Stang, and Wells did agree on one thing. Back up your data.

American Eagle has just released THE VIRUS CREATION LABS: A
Journey Into the Underground, a new book by Crypt Newsletter
editor George Smith. Smith unravels the intrigue behind
virus writers and their scourges, the anti-virus software
developers and security consultants on the information highway.

What readers are saying about THE VIRUS CREATION LABS:

"There are relatively few books on the 'computer underground' that
provide richly descriptive commentary and analysis of personalities
and culture that simultaneously grab the reader with entertaining
prose. Among the classics are Cliff Stoll's 'The Cuckoo's Egg,' Katie
Hafner and John Markoff's 'Cyberpunk,' and Bruce Sterling's 'The
Hacker Crackdown.'  Add George Smith's 'The Virus Creation Labs' to
the list . . . 'Virus Creation Labs' is about viruses as
M*A*S*H is about war!"

                       ---Jim Thomas, Computer underground
                       Digest 7.18, March 5, 1995

"THE VIRUS CREATION LABS dives into the hoopla of the Michelangelo
media blitz and moves on to become an engaging, articulate,
wildly angry diatribe on the world of computer virus writers . . .
Expert reporting."
                      ----McClatchy NewsWire


"The eruption of electronic publications and services has
produced some genuinely novel ways to waste time.  Anyone who
has the time to explore the vast resources of the Internet
should probably read 'The Virus Creation Labs' instead.
Cynical, diverting new book . . ."
                     ----Steven Aftergood, the Federation of
                         American Scientists' SECRECY & GOVERNMENT
                         BULLETIN

"I like it!  The writing is witty and informative [and]
does a fine job of keeping the interest of the
'outsider' to the virus scene."
                     ----Nowhere Man, infamous virus writer and
                         programmer of the software virus-maker,
                         the Virus Creation Laboratory kit
