It's probably the best description to be understood by non-technical people. They send out massive waves of spam mails with downloader-aap in ever new variants attached, that then would install some keylogging trojan. So the mail is not what one would normaly name as Phishing. cheers, Toralv Firmensitz: Muenchen Amtsgericht: AG Muenchen Handelsregister: HRB 144340 Geschaeftsfuehrer: Eric F. Brown, Anthony E.
