What is this?
I noticed my mic wasn't working and it came with my Creative Webcam so I removed all Creative programs from my computer and was going to re-install to see if that would help.
When I put the Creative Webcam disc in I got a ZA alert that flashjester jugglor engine wanted to monitor my mouse and keyboard strokes. I did a google and could not find a website I trusted to check on what this FlashJester program is so I denied when I denied my computer locked up and I had to restart. Is this part of Creative and I just never noticed or did my disc somehow get a bug in it and this is malicious spyware?

just briefly looked at the google results for above and it seems to be a program to make interactive menus and such with Flash. Does not sound bad from what I have read so not quite sure to make of what ZA was saying about it.

I've checked everywhere and other than getting websites I've never heard of pop up in the search engines (google, mamma, Yahoo) I get nothing.... except that it is part of 3rd eye solutions???????
nothing on a search in PCWorld or CNet So now the question is is this malware or was this a Creative upgrade to my webcam that I didn't know about.... I even went to Creative to see what I could find but they don't have a site search .... or at least I couldn't find it

Maybe it's a false positive in ZA? Or maybe the file got replaced by a bad version. I would download this program manually, install it, and see what ZA says. In fact, if you download the same version that Creative installs, then compare them; see if the install files are exactly the same.

"Jugglor, launched in 1996,
holds court as the first third-party tool created to transform Projector files into standalone programs for CD-ROMs, stand-alone movies, interactive demos, catalogs and more. Jugglor v2.0 takes Flash performance to the next level with dual-engine support for both Projectors and SWFs and includes even more features that Macromedia left out." Looks like its just part of the installer, designed to let you use standalone Flash files as an installer.. I'm going to go with "benign" on this one.

Thanks guys..... after having some problems I am very wary of allowing things to install unless I know what they are.
