Streamarmor Scans Your PC For Alternate Data Streams

Alternate data streams (ads) are a feature of Microsoft
's Windows NTFS file system that can be used to add data to existing files, for instance text to a text file that does not become visible if the original file is opened in a text editor. The hidden nature of alternate data streams have made them attractive for malicious users who use the streams to store malicious files so that they are harder to detect by the user.
Streamarmor is an easy to use software program
for the Windows operating system that can scan the contents of a hard drive for alternate data streams.
