Examining every application that you launch to make sure you're not sending private information to unauthorized people.

Its user-friendly interface, innovative features such as drag & drop scan, right-click scan and a setup Wizard were designed to enable novice users to configure the application and use it effectively without the need for any computer literacy on their part.

Tauscan Features

Tauscan is capable of detecting and removing more about 1000 Trojan Horses including modifications and variants from your system. That is more than any other application currently available.
The program scans your system's memory when it boots and will remove any Trojan viruses it finds there.
Its simple, but functional interface has been especially designed with novice users in mind. All the primary functions are accessible from the Toolbar and are easily accessible at any time.
Tauscan allows you to scan specific files and folders with just a simple right-click mouse. Just choose "Scan" from the menu and Tauscan does the rest!
Another unique feature of Tauscan allows you to scan a file or folder just by dragging and dropping the program's icon into the Folder window. This feature is particularly useful in order to scan an executable before you install it on your system. You can also right-click a file or folder and scan it that way too.
The Tau Monitor feature checks all running processes for the presence of a Trojan virus and even allows you to kill any process with just two mouse clicks.
The Context Help menu, Online Tour of our web site and the Interactive Tutorial were all designed to make Tauscan an effective yet simple tool for both novices and professional users alike.
The Wizard feature simplifies the setup and functionality of the program and guides you through the whole scanning process without any need on the user's part to be computer-literate.
The Tauscan team constantly monitors the Internet to discover new strains or completely new Trojans as they appear. Tauscan's "Update" feature also allows you to download the very latest updates to the program as well as the very latest virus definition files in order to combat each new threat as it appears. The program can use a variety of mirrors to download updates from and also supports proxy servers. Tauscan will even remind you when an update is due.
The advanced Trojan Analyzer allows the program to detect Trojan viruses even if they have been incorporated as an attachment. Rogue utilities such as Silk Rope, Joiner and TOP for example, allow a cracker or hacker to bind the Trojan to the installer in such a way that the Trojan will install even if the user decides to cancel the installation of the actual program.
Tauscan creates a log file of all scanning processes either as a plain text file, or in HTML format.
The scanning process can be suspended and resumed at any time. The user can also set the priority level so that the program works invisibly in the background while the user performs normal everyday tasks.

Windows 2000 Professional
Windows 95
Windows 98

What is a Trojan Horse and what threat does it pose?

Since "Trojan Horses" (or Backdoors) have been in the news just recently, the term probably sounds familiar to you. But perhaps you’re not quite sure what a Trojan Horse is and what damage it is capable of doing to your system. Trojan Horses, of which there are now more than one thousand in circulation (including modifications and variants), are a relatively new and probably the most dangerous strain of viruses that have appeared in recent times. They also threaten to overwhelm systems that only run anti-virus applications and firewalls as a means of combating the threat. Today's Trojans as they are commonly referred to as, have now attained such a degree of sophistication that they pose a real threat to any user who hasn't taken adequate precautions to protect their data.

The name "Trojan Horse" derives itself from a page in Greek history when the Greeks had lain siege to the fortified city of Troy for over ten years. Their spy, a Greek called Sinon offered the Trojans a gift in the form of a wooden horse and convinced them that by accepting it, they would become invincible. The horse though was hollow and was occupied by a contingent of Greek soldiers. When they emerged in the dead of night and opened the city gates, the Greeks swarmed in, slaughtered its citizens and subsequently pillaged, burned and laid waste to the city.

In the IT environment, the Trojan Horse acts as a means of entering the victim’s computer undetected and then allowing a remote user unrestricted access to any data stored on the user's hard disk drive whenever he or she goes online. In this way, the user gets burned and like the unfortunate citizens of Troy, may only discover that fact when it is too late.

These types of viruses were originally designed as a means of self expression by gifted programmers and did little more than to cause the system to lock up, behave abnormally in a specific way or perhaps cause loss of data on the user’s machine.

Nowadays though, Trojans have a much more sinister purpose. Their primary objective is to allow a remote user a means gaining access to a victim's machine without their knowledge. Once that has been achieved, the intruder can do anything with the machine that the user can do. An intruder's usual objective is to browse the user's hard drive in order to detemine if there is anything of value stored on it. That could be almost anything such as valuable research papers, credit card details or passwords to restricted web sites for example. If anything of value is found, then the intruder can copy the data to his own hard drive in exactly the same way that the user can copy a file to a floppy disk. The worse thing is that all these processes are hidden from the user who might be sitting in front of his own machine working on an entirely different document at the time. Unusual hard drive activity for no apparent reason may be the only indication that something is happening that shouldn't be happening.

The intruder can also cause havoc to the system by deleting (system) files, erasing valuable data or ultimately destroying the hard drive. Simply adding a command to the autoexec.bat file can do that. The next time the unsuspecting victim boots the computer, it will automatically run the format command. Adding a certain flag to that command will also render the hard disk unusable.

Passwords offer no protection at all because today's Trojans are capable of recording the victim’s keystrokes and then transmitting the information back to the intruder. Those passwords can subsequently be deciphered by the Trojan and even changed in order to prevent the user getting access to his own files!

What Problems Can A Trojan Horse Cause?

Let's suppose that you have already been infected. How do intruders attack and get a full control of your computer?

Practically every Trojan virus has two functional parts called the server and the client. The server part is the part of the program that infects a victim's computer. The client part is the one that allows a hacker to manipulate data on the infected machine.

Intruders scan the Internet for an infected user (technically speaking, an attacker sends request packets to all users of a specific Internet provider) using the client part of the virus. Once an infected computer has been found (the server part of the virus that is located on infected machine replies to client part's request) the attacker connects to that user's computer and creates a "link" between the two just like the one in an ordinary telephone conversation. Once that has happened (this procedure may only take a few seconds), the intruder will be able to get unrestricted access to the user's computer and can do anything he likes with it. The intruder becomes the master and the user the slave because short of disconnecting from the Internet, the user is helpless and has no means at his disposal to ward off an attack.

Intruders can monitor, administer and perform any action on your machine just as if they were sitting right in front of it.

A Trojan Horse works a bit like the backdoor to your house. If you leave it unlocked, anybody can come in and take whatever they want while you're not looking. The main difference with a backdoor installed on your computer is that anybody can come in and steal your data, delete your files or format your hard drive even if you are looking. There are no visible outward signs that anything untoward is happening other than perhaps unusual hard disk activity for no apparent reason.
