Finally received my hardware. Came with a small discs with a bunch of files on it (several trojan horses detected, too).

Can someone post a link (or file) that describes the install, and basic operation?

Just an FYI, but a lot of antivirus packages out there incorrectly flag installers using certain compression methods.  I'm not saying your installer is safe - simply implying you may be seeing false positives for some "trojan.generic".

If you're worried about trojans/viruses from those bootleg clone copies run them in a virtual machine and disable network access for that VM. Download VirtualBox (free, oss) and get a XP/7 cd/iso.

A lighter way to do this is in a Sandbox (like Sandboxie for example) which will do a similar thing using less resources.

I would like to put together a ghetto bench setup.
I assume these parts would be required/desired:

a) power source (car battery and car charger to maintain 12.7+ Volt)
b) large and small connectors to plug into ECU, rear pins exposed
c) OBDII connector where Galletto etc. cable plugs in
c) wires to build and solder up connections from ECU plug to OBDII plug

Sources for b) and c)?
Alternative: junkyard and cut out the b) and c) connectors from a suitable doner car?

b) Large ECU connectors: I used standard .187 female spade crimps. Cover the whole end with shrink wrap.

Small ECU connectors: .100 two pin pigtails. Only using one pin on each of course. You could use an old floppy drive ribbon cable from the junk box too. Same spacing between pins on those as the ECU...

c) Amp mil connector female socket pin crimps worked to slide over the pins on my OBD plug so I didn't use a socket. Once again the junk box comes through on that.

Both should be easy to source at your local electronics store. Just bring your ECU and cable and you will be able to sort it out in short order...
