Sounds like a 'bot' to me. Those can do all the things you describe. -----Original Message----- From: MSU Network Administrators Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Loren LaLonde Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2005 11:03 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MSUNAG] Windows Logon Type 2 Is there a VNC service installed on the workstation?

The most recent incident was Thursday night/Friday morning. The Windows XP security log shows a logon type 2 early Friday morning. This is supposed to mean a console logon, which would mean that the intruder was in the office directly at the keyboard of the attacked computer, instead of breaking in over the network. Question: Is there any other way to get a logon type 2 in the security log? Or let's take a poll: How many of you think that our intruder is coming in the door, and how many think he is coming over the network? -- David McFarlane Systems Designer Michigan State University, Dept. of Psychology [log in to unmask]
