Hi Kerano,

I'll add a few to the list.

For spyware information:

- doxdesk is an excellent source: parasites
- Eric Howes also has a great site, Protecting Your Privacy & Security, with many links you can read through, for example: Crapware Count
- Kephyr also has a File Database you can browse through alphabetically.

For virus information:

Most Antivirus sites will have a "virus information listing" with a searchable database. I'll list two to get you started, but I am sure others will add a few more.

- Sympantec - Security Response
- Virus Bulletin - Malware Directory

For trojan information:

Anti-trojan vendors also have some information available on their sites:

- Mischel Internet Security (TrojanHunter) - Papers
- PCS (BOClean) Library
- Diamondcs (TDS-3) - Articles & Alerts

Theres just a few to start, and hopefully other's will add to it.

Regards,

snap

PS - Oh, and if you do a search on this forum for rootkits, I'm sure you'll find quite a few threads on that subject.
