Yikes. How would I deal with that, siberia?
MSINFO32 will tell you everything that’s running
siberia, I was going to suggest the same thing. I sell that kind of spy software, but I also know of a detecting software that can find it.
Wow, I’d so hate to be right about this.
matt_mcl, look into some software called SpyCop.
Feel free to email me if you have any other questions that you don’t want to ask on the boards.
BUT, another thing is that it could be a virus. My IT geek SO suggests these options
- after deleting, reboot into safe mode and then check your disk space.
- rebooting without your ethernet cable connected
- visiting http://housecall.trendmicro.com and running the online virus scanner that can be found there
Good luck!
Hmmm…I seem to recall reading online somewhere about a new Trojan Horse.
It gets onto your computer somehow, & is used to relay porn to people.
Wait! Here’s a link.
Actually, sailor, the latest version of ISpyNow 3.0 will not show up in task manager, or any of the reports displayed by executing msinfo32.exe.
I would follow the suggestions made by **Harli ** but do be aware that some of the latest spyware will not be uncovered by spyware detectors.
If I were in your situation, I would grab a program like Headcoat suggested so that you can zero in on the larger/unknown files. Then with a little detective work you can find out what the large and/or numerous files are.
