This remote administration tool originated in January 2004. The author is someone, hiding behind a nickname ".c0m". Several versions can be found in the Internet. The main purpose of this application is providing a remote attacker the control of your PC. There are several ways of infecting a machine with a RAT application. Most attacks are performed through the File and Print Sharing and the e-mail. While the first way is mostly used to infect a less experienced user, the e-mail can be used to attack a well protected machine. The possibilities of RAT applications can vary, but the main principle is quite simple: an installed "server" allows the hacker to gain access to your PC via a "client" in his machine.
