I know an It guy (really great) who cleans my puter every so often.

He said I had some really bad stuff on it this time.
Do you know anything about a trojan called BHO-AM? I get hit every morning around 4:30.

It is really PMO.

Let's no forget Red China.Just about every USB drive is made either in Taiwan or Red China itself.And The Chicoms certainly have enough operatives in Taiwan so that their units would be suspect as well.

I cleaned my USB drive, but after I got it out of the dryer, it no longer worked.

Most USB keyloggers out there already use the HID of a keyboard, been doing that for years. What’s new here?

Jeez, that’s pretty serious, particularly since usb drives are so small - you’d have to carefully inspect the back-end of any computer you used that other people have had access to, like your computer at work, for instance.
