CopyCat
Test Description
CopyCat uses Windows API 'SetThreadContext' to take control over the thread of a trusted process. This technique was invisible to personal firewalls for a long time and even today many firewalls are not able to handle it.

Copycat avoids detection by directly injecting code into your web browser without creating an additional thread. If your firewall fails this test then it is vulnerable to process injection
