A guy on another message board I frequent has posed an interesting question and I'm not sure of the answer. He was investigating the IP address of an attacker who was messing with the OP of the thread I was reading and decided to connect to the FTP that was used to copy files to the OP's computer(not smart to begin with). He says he didnt download anything, only connected but since then, his computer has been acting weird and he suspects he got a virus or trojan. I'm not sure if thats possible... Can an FTP server covertly transfer files to your computer while you are connected? Maybe he was connected to a honeypot? Fill me in guys!
