Someone ought to get a hold of one of these and let the folks who do rootkit analyzers add it to the list of baddies to check for. You know that one "law enforcement professional" can give a copy of this to one million crooks.
There is no way the list of functions described could be performed on a Mac without being installed as a rootkit.
The question is: how does the software install itself without an admin password? It has to modify files that one would not normally have access to. And if it just runs as a background process, activity monitor would show it, unless it somehow attaches itself to a normally running system process.
Even more so if the computer is not running from an admin account (more and more it looks like we shouldn't be default running from an admin account).
Man oh man do we not need this. And if it's really for "law enforcement", why don't they just send mail to police departments, rather than listing on versiontracker? Sick. Sick. Sick.

I would like to see a response from apple regarding this app.If this was really for legal use then THEY WOULD HAVE A WARRANT and would not need this app which is just to steal critical and private information illegally.
I hope they go bankrupt very soon.
