This signature detects the remote desktop control application TeamViewer when it makes an initial connection to the registration server. TeamViewer allows a user to share their desktop and hard drive contents with any other user over the Internet, a possible security risk. Its use may be a violation of your organization's acceptable use policy. TeamViewer can be run without installation and without administrator privileges. It is designed to work from behind NAT firewalls. If the TeamViewer port (5938) is blocked, the application will revert to HTTP to register.
