I'm pretty sure LS stores not just the name of the application, but also a hash of the application. In this way even upgrades to the application require that they be re-authorized. Note that this is a guess, I don't think I've seen this specifically stated anywhere. Also note that this doesn't mean LS will notice if an app has been replaced with a trojan. You yourself will have to remember that you've already authorized an app and it hasn't been upgraded since. LS is a good aid, but not ironclad. Security will always rely heavily on the user. -- -- arno s hautala /-\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- _______________________________________________ Littlesnitch-talk mailing list [email protected] http://at.obdev.at/mailman/listinfo/littlesnitch-talk
