Why would anyone want to run software on a daily basis that gives out information of processes running on their own computer?
Well, no one would WANT to give their info away, but I'm pretty sure the way FTP (+ Stars, Cereus, and other) installs on your machine, it allows them to do things like monitor your processes and scape your screen to try to see what's running but
only while you're logged on and running their software.
I've been curious about bots and how people run them; apparently this is a very real possibility. I believe there are precautions to take, like trying to install the casino software into a private folder in a restricted account so it can't scan files outside of that folder, but I'm not sure how it's done exactly. Does anyone else know how this works? If they can, it is indeed creepy that they can essentially run spyware on your computer
