Nuclear RAT

Posted: March 28, 2006

A Remote Administration Tool is a special kind of hacker malware, used for remote access and control of other people's PCs. The attacker infects the PC via the e-mail or File and Print Sharing. A "server" allows him to connect via a "client" on his own machine. The functions of a RAT may vary, depending on the needs of the hacker. Some RATs can't really harm your PC and the only purpose they were made for is hooliganism. But some versions can steal vital information, remove files and even crash your computer. Several versions of this dangerous RAT were created during the period from November 2003 to January 2004. The author is a hacker called Caesar2k from a group called Nuclear Winter Crew. The pest is written in Delphi applicationming language. It can disable some Firewall and AV protections.
