|
|
Okay so I think we got some hacker trying to be funny in our lan.
He cut off my net first 3 days.(I think so)
My pc suddenly didnt have internet for 3 days, and I went to a camping this weekend, came back and internet worked again while I didnt change anything.
So I guess it's some hacker or RAT.
So today my lil bro turns on his his PC and yelled me to come to his room.
So I came, and I lol'd like hell since I saw exactly this picture: [img]http://superfunadventuretime.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/billy_mays_family.png[/url] as his background, stretched.
And then he launched Mozilla Firefox and some sound started playing of Billy Mays trying to sell us his Oxi Clean, again I lol'd.
Anyone saw some virus like this before?
If it doesn't damage anything it's pretty funny actually.

Most likely what you call a trojan.
A Trojan horse, or trojan for short, is a term used to describe malware that appears, to the user, to perform a desirable function but, in fact, facilitates unauthorized access to the user's computer system

I have to agree with that.
Even though it seems fun, I don't recommend to keep it, as they still have 100% access to his computers, and yours.

Rat: Any of various long-tailed rodents resembling mice but larger, especially one of the genus Rattus.
It's an acronym for Remote Administration Tool
@OP Rat's are hell to remove you could try hijackthis and malware bytes anti malware or just backup important documents and reformat.
