Eves dropping software

by bra-k . Updated 25 years, 4 months ago

Hello all, I have reason to believe that one of my users may be a victim of eves dropping through the PC. Is there software out there that can be loaded remotely on an NT workstation or through an open port that would allow the (hacker) to turn on the microphone on the PC and be able to listen to conversations in the room where the PC is. If so what is the software and the process name, so that I can look to see if it is on this PC, or has been run on this PC. Also is there a way to tell if this has been done in the past but not being run now? I have never heard of this being done, but who knows with the technology we have today. I hope one of you out there will have an answer and solution to my problem.

Thanks in advance
Bra-k
