Hi all, perhaps I'm way off-base but I've been under the impression that
malware can be added
to clean transmissions as they pass through infected nodes. Is this
possible? Unless you're talking about inserting a proxy in-line and manually grabbing the packets and manipulating them at a huge amount of work, you ARE way off-base. There is no malware I know of that would even know what the packets were, muchless re-assemble them into the original document, insert itself, and pass it on. Maybe by 2104...
