Hmmm...I'm a novice, but I have to immediatley think that your system has already been compromised by a trojan or ohter malware allowing them to monitor your activity...the PDFs and files you are receiving now could be perfectly clean...

Hi experts, Is there a way to know if exist a payload inside a PDF or HTML File, Let me explain the problem, i marketing company is sending me emails and is able to know if i open, delete, sent to spam or forward the message so i think there is a payload inside that files. Let me tell you that the HTML file looks like a normal one without javascript or obfuscation or another malicious payload, only links and images, Is there a tool to look inside PDF files? Or a Steganos tool to test the images from HTML file? What you think? Thanks in advance -- Danux, CISSP Chief Information Security Officer Macula Security Consulting Group www.macula-group.com
