I'm a little concerned about a program called Go!Zilla (a Windows 9x
Internet download manager) - basically upon detecting network
connections it appears to send about 2-4k of data to a remote machine
on port 1975.
There appears to be no reference to this made in the documentation,
and I'm a little concerned about what it is actually sending to the
server (and also what is being logged at the server end).
Anybody want to pull Go!Zilla apart or run a network sniffer and see
what it's doing?
I might just be jumping to conclusions, but with what happened with
ProMail I don't think we can afford to have another trojan available
on all the big download sites...
Regards,
