Murphy Trojan

Removing Murphy
Categories: Trojan,Backdoor,RAT,Downloader,Hacker Tool,DoS
This loose category includes a variety of Trojans that damage victim machines or
threaten data integrity, or impair the functioning of the victim machine.

Multi-purpose Trojans are also included in this group, as some virus writers
create multi-functional Trojans rather than Trojan packs.
Backdoors are used by virus writers to detect and download confidential information,
execute malicious code, destroy data, include the machine in bot networks and so forth.

Some RAT trojans are pranks that are most likely being controlled by a friend or enemy on
April Fool's day or a holiday. Prank RATS are generally not harmful, and won't log keystrokes or hack.

The downloader either launches the new malware or registers it to enable autorun
according to the local operating system requirements.
Exploits use vulnerabilities in operating systems and applications to achieve the same result.
DoS trojans conduct attacks from a single computer with the consent of the user.
