Espionage is a very dangerous RAT virus, designed for remote
controlling of the infected PC and spying on user activity. The program
includes such dangerous functions as "Anti Virus killer" and "Firewall
killer". It can disable almost any AV and Firewall protection. This
virus can be used as HTTP server. It means that the intruder can use
his web browser to view and steal all the information, stored in
victim's computer. This RAT also has a "surveillance" function. It uses
victim's webcam and microphone to spy on user. It also logs keystrokes
and makes screenshots from the infected PC. The author of this pest is
a hacker called erebus. The program was created in Visual Basic and
compressed with ASPack. Several versions originated (Espionage 1.0
Espionage 1.1) during the period from January 2002 to February 2005.

From the publisher:

"Espionage is a trojan http server. it was created on an xp box with
visual basic. (it will run on all versions of windows) trojan runs on
port81 and is controlled through browser. To access the server after
infection simply bring up http://server's ip:81 in your browser.

close antivirus's on windows 95/98/NT/2k/XP, including mcaffee and
norton. also, on NT/2k/XP, the system task manager is disabled.
