One of the people clicks Start and it pops up a little
"A New program has been installed"
flag over the start menu. I've trained them to not trust
anything so she waves at me. Well, she hasn't installed
anything intentionally. I immediately scan for crap and
nothing is found. I look through All Programs, nothing
seems out of line. I grope the registry, don't find any
easy results. I search for all files modified in the last
24 hours and get the usual flood of unrelated items.
Ok, where do I find what program has been installed?
And, wouldn't it be nice if that little flag told the
user the name of what had been installed, so they could
recognize it or know this was likely some net vandal?
After half an hour of my looking for vermin she went back
to work and I'll just try to keep an eye on it.
