Every techie should know about this.

There's a new software package out there being marketed that's nothing more than a trojan horse.


I downloaded and installed it to test, and it does everything it says it does. The threat is that a hacker will find this and cause havoc in somebodies network. The good news is that, as long as you are filtering .EXE, .PIF, and .SCR, you should be fine. Anyone who doesn't filter these should do so.
