| Is Tor a vector for trojans? In using tor on a win9x box, my running
I noticed my mouse was uncontrollable and would not respond to movement
commands or would move across the page in the opposite direction.
In checking running processes, I found "winoldap" that runs concurrently
with Tor. Terminating this process brought mouse contol back. Earlier,
the mouse had frozen twice requiring cold reboot. During normal offline
operation of the mouse it works normally.
The problem is there is no winoldap file on my system and this only runs
with Tor activated. Since Tor makes use of encrypted two way data ex-
change it occurs to me that Tor could be used as a vector for Trojan
transmission. What are your thoughts?
P.S. I have also noticed that the originators and tor node admins
never answer posts to this forum. What are they hiding? Also, I ran a very
good on demand AV/Troj app during this and found nothing.

"winoldap" is the DOS-box. Since Tor is a console program, Windows
starts the console when you execute Tor.

You can find that file in your Windows\System directory. Its name is
"winoldap.mod". Do _not_ delete this file or you will be unable to
use the Command Prompt and run DOS-programs inside Windows. Again,
this is a required system file.
