Well, it's not that easy. XP+ doesn't "autorun" removable storage devices like USB drives. Only CD/DVD media support "autorun" unless you have a "special" usb drive that presents itself as a CD specifically for that functionality, or you had some "auto-mount" software on the machine to begin with. It can of course be done, but it's not the simple "catch-all" of levering autorun that many think it to be. t On 7/24/06 3:53 PM, "Andy Meyers" <andy.meyers () hushmail com> spoketh to all:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Autorun.ini pointing to a batch file that copies the contents of the entire USB stick. Or by manipulating the Windows autorun when its plugged into the USB drive. Tell your friend to encrypt his exams. - ----------- Ashes PGP: http://ashesbelow.ath.cx/public.txt - -----Original Message----- From: Rocky [mailto:pixscreenpoint () gmail com] Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 6:20 AM To: pen-test () securityfocus com 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. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -- This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
