Subject: Re: [MSUNAG] windows services? hacking
I'm glad someone is asking this of the whole group; we've found pretty much
every one of our Windows servers here w/ Dameware on it in the past month
or so and it's very, very tough to get rid of. I put in a trouble ticket
to the Security team asking for help and have yet to get a response. Pls.
share any solution you get w/ the group if you would.
A buddy of mine who works for AIS said that they've had clients all around
campus getting hit by that Dameware hack. Since it's a legit program I
guess Symantec and other AV software don't view it as a trojan/ worm.
Thanks again,
Tim
