PWSteal.Trojan?

[Brian5]

While doing a virus scan on my computer, it alerted me that a PWSteal.Trojan had found its way onto my system. My question? Can I determine where my AOL password is being sent to who's ever email account?

Thanks,
Brian

Yes, you could, by decompiling the program. Then do a search for an email address in the code, which was most likely written in Visual Basic. There are programs that do it for you, but i for got the name of it... i'll do a search for it.


There are a few that i have found for aol. They scan the code for email addresses.
