Echolist Announcement ...

CYBER-DANGER
Malware, Trojan, Virus and Rogue Application Discussion
This echo will apply to all Computer operating systems
but will be of keen interest to those running Microsoft
Windows. This echo is for the discussion of the various
computer viruses, worms, trojans and rootkits that have
been known, are known or will be known to infect our chosen
operating systems. Additionally the discussion of what are
known as Rogue Security Applications is encouraged. Rogue
Security Applications are programs written to pose as legitimate
security programs to coerce a user to install them and register
them but in reality these programs cripple the host system
and often download more malware. The discussion on how to
identify, avoid or remove these cyber-dangers is most welcome.
