Worm trojan horses in wget and rsync Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2004 07:16:23 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <14120875053201@colorado-mail.cam-llc.com> X-AntiSpam: Checked for restricted content by Gordano's AntiSpam Software X-IsSubscribed: yes Actually I did read the FAQ and was not concerned about the norton complaint about wget. However, the rsync complaint occurred when I was syncing 2 local machines. I will try the same rsync with a crossover cable (no internet) and see what norton sez this weekend.

Search of this list for >worm trojan gave 1 hit relating to email. You probably should read the FAQ entry referenced below: Is Cygwin Setup, or one of the packages, infected with a virus? What it says applies equally as well to anything you might download via wget and rsync. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
