What can RAP programs do and how do I know which are safe and which are real spyware?
I am running TrendMicro Internet Security 2007 and it identifies Quicktimes' qttask.exe (7.1.4) as a "RAP_Generic" as high risk spyware "allow users to access and manipulate remote systems". I am assumming it is safe, but does RAP mean the machine (mine here) can access/manipulate other systems, or that they can access/manipulate mine (which scares me). They don't provide a list of safe or unsafe, or real guidance as to how to decide. Advice anyone?
