Re: GLIntercept0_5.exe. It's a debugging tool for developers working with OpenGL. While it's not of itself malicious, Norton is entirely correct to flag it as a security risk. It hooks into Windows message queues and copies those messages elsewhere, which is exactly the way that keyloggers work when they're intercepting your credit card details, and I guess you wouldn't want Norton to ignore that?

As to the eyebeamresearch software; this uses GLIntercept to hijack the geometry sent to the OpenGL API from a target app, should work in theory, though, if the developers are going to give examples of stealing meshes from Google Earth and a big games developer as they do, I wouldn't fancy their chances of being around for too long. But hey, if you're happy with stealing other people's work, it should do the job, so grab it while you can.
