It's been a month now since I have been getting this "Cain%26Abel" every after I do my spyware scan. When I delete it and scan it again, it does not come back. But after a few minutes of using the internet, when I scan it again, it comes back. I don't know if my computer has indeed been infected or not. What damage can this spyware do to my computer? I understand it's a password hacking tool. How can I get rid of it? I have noticed that my system has been acting pretty slow lately and has been responding real slow. Do you think it would help if I would reformat my computer by reinstalling my operating system? I know that would mean starting from scratch, but I would do that if that would help the problem. I have been using the Norton Antivirus and it claimed that it protects me from spyware, but my other spyware software was the one that detected it, not the Norton. I need help. What should I do? I want to get rid of it. How will I know if my computer has indeed been infected? Thanks!
How do you get rid of "Cain%26Abel" spyware?ariel
Cain %26 Abel is a password recovery tool for Microsoft Operating Systems. It allows easy recovery of various kind of passwords by sniffing the network, cracking encrypted passwords using Dictionary, Brute-Force and Cryptanalysis attacks, recording VoIP conversations, decoding scrambled passwords, recovering wireless network keys, revealing password boxes, uncovering cached passwords and analyzing routing protocols. The program does not exploit any software vulnerabilities or bugs that could not be fixed with little effort. It covers some security aspects/weakness present in protocol's standards, authentication methods and caching mechanisms; its main purpose is the simplified recovery of passwords and credentials from various sources, however it also ships some "non standard" utilities for Microsoft Windows users.
