>From what I understand of your situation, during the
course of a pen-test, you ran across a potential intruder, potentially in the process of committing a crime.

If this is the situation, I have to wonder why you're bothering to ask the list what to do. One would think that if your customer is potentially loosing something very important and valuable, that you'd immediatly switch from pen-test mode to forensics mode...or at the very least inform the customer.

I guess I just don't understand why there's any indecision at all...
