FBI retires its Carnivore

FBI surveillance experts have put their once-controversial Carnivore Internet surveillance tool out to pasture, preferring instead to use commercial products to eavesdrop on network traffic, according to documents released Friday.

You should be thinking outside of the box and not so focused on a minor tool such a dsniff.

Carnivore, Magic Lantern, etc etc can all be found by searching the net. You can also find what "Hardware" is being used by them now. Heck if you google right you can find info on the CIA.

Think of Eeye and Iris now put it on steriods and you have an idea about what I mean by thinking out of the box.

You have to capture VoIP, Movie formats, IM formats, email formats, telnet sessions, IRC formats, and the list goes on deeper.
