Can be malicious, however do not terminate it. Make sure you have good anti-virus software such as NOD32 or Kaspersky, and you will be fine. | |||

Pode ser bom ou pode ser mal: difÃÂcil é estabelecer o limite entre ambos. No primeiro caso pode funcionar como subsistema de logan no Windows; no segundo caso, pode ser utilizado por um cavalo de tróia (vÃÂrus trojan) para logar um usuário remoto. Comigo aconteceu o caso ruim: o meu PC foi indadido (logado) por um desconhecido remoto qual obteve a senha de meu MSN e, pior que isso, o invasor começou a espalhar vÃÂrus (Trojan - sob o slogan "convite de formatura") para todos os meus contatos de e-mail. Cuidado ao analisar esse processo! | |||
