It was programmed to capture the keystrokes for all passwords... and e-mailed as an attachment... Is there any reputable anti-virus that can actually detect such malicious spywares ... we have norton for exchange, and desktops and file and prin servers... it failed to detect it... furthermore when contacted we were informed that since it is a spyware... norton is designed to ignore such programmed.. like SPYWARE.. since it doesnt want the unsuspecting users to panic unneccessarily.... I did read about a software called bodetect that claims to stop this kind of programme.... and infact zonealarm informs the user ... anytime that this winwhatwhere attemtps to connect to the hotmail server on port 25 to stealthly send the email attachment and inform that a programmed was attempting to make an outgoing connection on port 25... .. but other than this personal firewall... are you folks aware of any software that can actually detect all spywares....???? In case any one of you is interested.. just go to www.winwhatwhere.com regards _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
