Aurora

[Randal W.]

Noticed that Adaware and this MS-Anti-Virus did not remove
it.... ended up using a product called ewido security
suite to nuke Aurora spyware... I was caught by surprise
when after WinXP SP2 was installed and I had popup blocker
on..... Aurora went right through the popup. Has anyone
else found others that are making to through??

Please advise and thanks -Randy-

Hi Randy,
Aurora is a pain, pure and simple.

Haven't seen it on any machines with SP2, and ones I've dealt with ended up
'getting' Sp2.

You might want to read this article from eweekly on the new prevalence
of aurora and other spyware coming through on the BitTorrent P2P
network. Quite interesting.
