A Remote Administration Tool is a special kind of hacker malware, used for remote access and control of other people's PCs. The functions of such RAT applications are very dangerous: the hacker can gain full control over the infected computer. The application usually consists of two parts: the "server" and the "client". The first part embeds itself in victim's machine, opens a default TCP port and awaits commands. The "client" is installed on hacker's PC and allows him to connect and control the infected PC. This RAT was created in March 2003 in Poland.
