It would be possible for TS 7 to contain a bit of code that sends the 
contents of your hard drive, in particular all of your studies, to
another 
party.  A firewall does not protect against this, as TS 7 needs
permission 
to access the net, and once you give it that permission it is free to do

anything.
1 - Is there a way to detect if this is happening?
2 - Is that a way to prevent this from happening?
