Re: Tunneled Virus (was dns outbound)

I agree. The thought of this has been scaring me for some time. I can
imagine a smart exploit that will be able to get your proxy id and
password.

One time use passwords could be helpful. This virus could be smart
enough to wait for you to authenticate. I'm surprised that it has not
happened yet.

        The tunneled virus is a very scary thing, and can't be far off!
