Win32.Rmnet.12 is a computer virus which allows attackers to create a botnet including a huge number of contaminated PCs. Win32.Rmnet.12 targets Windows PCs, executes backdoor activities and steals passwords saved by well-known ftp clients. The stolen passwords may then be used to set up network attacks and compromise websites. Win32.Rmnet.12 creates instructions from a remote server which may involve corrupting the targeted operating system. Win32.Rmnet.12 enters machines via malicious flash drives, with malicious executable files, and using special scripts inserted into HTML documents that save Win32.Rmnet.12 to the PC when a user opens an infected website in the web browser window. Remove Win32.Rmnet.12 as soon as possible from the compromised PC before it destroys it.
