Spyware Information: Sniffer

This application is a packet sniffer. Packet sniffers listen to your network or Internet connection to watch everything that you send and receive. This allows them to read all your e-mails, for example, and see what sites you visit (and any information you enter there, unless the site's connection is encrypted). Packet sniffers can also listen to the communication from other computers on your network. If you're on a college campus network or inside a business, the packet sniffer will be able to listen to neighboring computers as well as your own.
