[Hmmmm. Interesting concept, but unlikely.
(Maybe if you were clearer about the
definition of a node?) I can't recall anything
that actually did this. Happy99 and
PrettyPark did something similar, but really just
creating a followup to the original
(innocent) message. It's unlikely you'd find
something that would/could infect a
router to perform this kind of action. Not
impossible, but unlikely.]
By node I am thinking moe of any server the file may travel through rather than a router. And my theoretical question is more concerned with downloaded files (such as media files) than email.
Thus, if a web site provides a clean media file for download, can it become tainted by travelling through a compromised server?
one step at a time...
