Remove DaCryptic. Description and removal instructions

Title: DaCryptic
Type: Remote Administration Tools	Severity scale: (70 / 100)

This pest can be classified as wery dangerous, because it includes a
lot of dangerous functions, such as "keylogger" and "worm". It also has
"trojan" abilities that allow it to infect the system via the e-mail.
It tries tocopy itself to as many machines as possible, but it does not
insert itself in to files. Instead it tries to replace them. The RAT
was written by a hacker called Cryptic. The origination date is March
2001.

From the publisher:

"-The client program:
DaCryptic.exe
-The backdoor:
simple_verc.exe
''-Source code of the simple backdoor
'' simple_ver.dpr
''-Source code of the worm version
'' worm_ver.dpr
This backdoor/worm has been coded in the period of the PrettyPark worm
so it's an old project forgotten in a drawer. This worm has never been
spread because there are many little bugs and it's really dirty coded.
-The keylogger function doesn't work under NT, an external dll must be
build.
-The trick with the exefile\command\open in the registry seems to not
run all programs.
Little description:
The worm function scan Outlook and Eudora address book file and after
send email. I don't know know if that work with the last versions.
There is a thread which connect to an irc for see who is online.
The port 1174 is open only when the victim is online and the Wsock32
api call are encrypted and the protocol of the backdoor too.
The keylogger was design mainly for detect if a 13,16 digit code is
tape on the keyboard and after put a flag in the registry (it's surely
the big need of money who push me to put this function inside :-).
The other function are: registry access, file upload/download, windows
process, etc..
