Anti-Trojan Software Reviews
Description
Working in the computer industry you hear about a lot of computer security disasters. But nothing prepared me for the shock I experienced when, one day in 1997 I discovered that my computer had been taken over by an unknown stranger somewhere out there in cyber-space. The intruder had uploaded all my confidential information and before leaving had trashed a lot my valuable files.
I was the victim of a trojan horse attack. A few days before I had loaded onto my computer a new spell-check utility sent to me for review. Hidden within the utility was a trojan RAT that gave the intruder full access to my files over the Internet.
At the time I was running an Norton AV, excellent anti-virus program. It not only failed to detect the trojan horse when it was installed on my computer, it didn't even put up an alarm when the trojan program "phoned home" to tell its owner that he could now take control of my PC!
