Poison Tipped Arrow

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. Once the virus embeds itself in victims PC, it opens a default TCP port and awaits hacker commands. It creates a "backdoor" in the security computer of the victim, allowing the intruder to connect completely unnoticed. This RAT was created in January 2003.
