There are lots of other options too....maybe the exam was stored in a
temp file.  I guess you could say that software to copy a usb drive in
the background might be high tech but not that high tech...a vbscript
running on the machine could easily do it.  It (the software to do that)
certainly would NOT be expensive...free would be closer.

Subject: Hidden Copying Software

Hi list,

A friend of mine who is a medical professor asked me if
it is possible to copy his usb thumb drive from their
class room pc without knowing it? he told me maybe
there's a hidden software that copying it in the background?

His exam from his usb thumbdrive was exposed all over
to his student.I told him that you need a very high tech
software or expensive to do it? Is any such software capable
of this? this some kind of impossible task in my views.

Thanks.
