Title: Quetnek
Type: Remote Administration Tools	Severity scale: (57 / 100)

This is a Remote Administration Tool (RAT), used by hackers for gaining access to distant PCs. A RAT program works by a simple but effective principle: the hacker infects the machine with a "server" program via the e-mail or File and Print Sharing system and can control it, using a "client" on his computer. The functions of a RAT can vary, depending on the needs of the attacker. This RAT creates a "backdoor" in the security system of the infected PC. It allows the intrude to bypass the AV protection and connect completely unnoticed. The pest was created in Germany. It was written in Visual Basic programming language. The origination date is March 2002.
