For those few of you who aren’t subscribed to Coding Horror blog, here’s a creepy piece of news:
a reader of the aforementioned blog discovered that the shareware program G-Archiver which claims to be a “Gmail backup solution” is actually a trojan spyware which actually sends back to its creator an email with the Gmail login and password of the poor sucker who’s using it.

Holly shit! I think this is the most devious phishing method I ever saw - convince poor suckers to download and even pay for your phishing spyware.

I’m not using G-Archiver but have input my passwords in many other programs, trusting them to do what they claim. Such a story makes me quite a bit more paranoid.
If any of you are already using this piece of evil software, it might be time for you to change your Gmail passwords and never use G-Archiver again.
