Along the same lines as this discussion, I've noticed that a good deal of my users are now sporting a US flag in the right-hand corner of their display. I'm in the pickle of trying to decide whether be the "network nazi" and remind users that unauthorized software is unauthorized (this approach would ultimately be viewed as unpatriotic and frowned upon by management) or just let it slide. Does anyone know of a good resource to find out if any of these "9/11" programs are actually detrimental. I feel that, in this instance, discretion is the better part of valor and unless there is a true risk that I should leave the users with these programs. Sometimes you just have to pick your battles...

Morpheus is top notch. If you want to continue to use the other one simply do an add/remove on the savenow. It should be in the programs listing. Everything works just fine without it.

Savenow is for the ads And it uses IE instances to let you search and display results etc...it's basically an IE wrapper and a web based service Those things are normal...but idunno of any backdoors it may have. -Adam -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John Martinez Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2001 5:50 PM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: Kazaa Does anyone know about any backdoors this app has? I love this program and a lot of users are running it too. I noticed it forces savenow.exe to load (hidden) and today it forced a mess of ie web instances.
