Author Information / Description
ShadowNet is a web-based remote spyware utility. So what does that mean? 
It means this: with ShadowNet you can remotely connect to any PC's that you want to monitor,
with your web-browser (IE, Netscape, Opera, etc), and  remotely spy  on, 
and control just by pointing your browser to http://ip:port/password.

ShadowNet gives you the power to remotely view and manage applications and 
windows running on the remote machine. ShadowNet allows you to view, in realtime,
the keystrokes being made on the remote machine. Not enough?
ShadowNet allows you to remotely grab screenshots of the desktop for visual spying,
as well as being able to issue Shutdown, Restart, Logoff, and Server Termination commands. 

ShadowNet is supported by its, easy to install, stealthy, remote server that you 
place on any target machine running Windows 9x.  Once installed you can specify the 
server access password (so no one else can use ShadowNet), as well as configure access rights.

All in all, ShadowNet gives yout he power to remotely administrate and monitor
remote machines at an affordable price.

This archive is an almost-complete reconstruction of the legendary Mega Security (also known as Kobayashi), a premier 90s-era "Trojan Database" where malware authors once showcased their work. After a decade offline, the site was brought back in August 2024 by its original creator, MasterRat, who authorized the Malware Gallery to host this modernized, searchable version of the collection. While the original site remains available for those seeking a nostalgic, old-school experience, we are proud to continue its legacy here. Full credit and thanks go to MasterRat and the retired Mega Security staff for their years of dedicated work in cataloging these historical samples.
