A system and method for researching an identity of a source of activity that is indicative of pestware is described. In one embodiment the method comprises monitoring the computer for activity that is indicative of pestware, identifying, based upon the activity, an object residing on the computer that is a suspected pestware object; and accessing at least a portion of a recorded history of sources that the computer received files from so as to identify a reference to an identity of a particular source that the suspected pestware object originated from.
