Just a bit of History.
The Site most of us are referring to Started out as a Unauthorized Stolen Copy of Totem.
Using technology similar to web Spiders that catalog the web, they found a way to make a duplicate copy of totems entire system.
prior to that, there were previous groups that hacked Totems software
I remember a group who went by the name of FTSM, I don't know if the two are related.. FTSM and this Copy site.
Anyway, this Russian site was brought to Totem's attention.
I had joined the site to try and collect information.
I was actually surprised by How Many Totem Forum Members were there, posting surprising comments about Totem.
Many encouraging this illegal site to take Totems place.
The models there, for the most part were not up the the standards we have here.
There were one or two very good ones, but they eventually jumped and became models here on Totem.
Last I had looked into the site, (over a year ago) production had stopped at 94 cards.
the software was ***** with, at that time, a non-detected Trojan that was sending back personal data from my computer.
( I use a sterile computer and a program called wireshark to monitor all internet traffic )
Of course, the information I was sending back was fake.
Just for the record, about 6 months ago, an update to my antivirus, finally notified me that that program was *****. So a virus signature finally showed up for it.
Their is no form of Flattery there.
It is plain and simple, it was Digital theft and should not be promoted.
The Software engine was an Exact copy of an Older version of Totem's product.
Dis-assembly of that software, even had the words TOTEM still intact.
So I can not STRESS enough these Words.
DO NOT FOR A MINUTE INSTALL OR USE THAT SOFTWARE
and to the Totem members who are still active participants there, or the members who will not listen to wise advice..
Good luck to you.
