  • Trojan is any malware that pretends to be a legit program. It does not need to have backdoor or info stealing capability even though most malware (trojan or not) today does. For example, pre-Internet trojans might just invisibly install themselves along the actual program they were bundled with and then nuke the system on a certain date. Antivirus companies would even advance the date on their systems in hopes of detecting these and being the first to develop a patch.

    But since this program is not malicious, it just straight up hogs system resources and/or crashes it due to a mistake, it cannot be considered malware and therefore not a trojan.

    Certain Intel processors from around 2000 would crash everything when loading the 4 bytes F0 0F C7 C8 into a specific register. Would you consider this a backdoor because it allows any program to crash the system? I wouldn’t say so, crashing Windows 98 was probably not too hard anyway…




  • Well, dojít also means “come to” as in “understand” or “deduce”, besides the usual meaning of “finish walking”. However, dojetí is the gerund-like form of either the verb dojet (“come to”/“arrive” but not on foot but by a land vehicle; though dojezd or příjezd is used more often) or way more commonly the verb dojmout se (“get moved [emotionally]”).

    The most accurate translation of the song title would be “[I Am] Afraid To Get Emotional” but “Resisting Being Moved/Touched”, close to what Google came up with, is the best if syllable count needs to be preserved.
