I was working on the AAM website last night when I noticed the computer was
working way too hard for what I was doing. So I activated my trusted spy
monitor to tell me what else or for that matter who else was using my
computer. I watched for a while but nothing happened. When I started typing
again my uninvited guest came alive. I started wondering if everything I was
typing was being recorded by an intruder! So I stopped what I was doing and
opened up my spy log. I found out I had what appeared to be a logger but I
couldn't recognize the name, so I ran spybot and removed several other
Trojans that were lumped together as DCOM--somethings. I continued with what
I was doing. This time the computer was behaving normal...no excessive CPU
usage. Out of curiosity I wanted to find out more about this particular
Trojan so I did some search and finally came across this article.  Did you
know?

If you do any kind of transactions on the internet, you may want to read
this article. I have also included the link to Firefox which I use at home.
It is free, faster and doesn't crash as often as explore does.  Just a
thought.

Here are the links

Have a great day and enjoy.

Peter
