I got curious so I actually tried to determine what sort of virus the RAR archive file contains. It turns out to be a rather nasty Trojan virus...
Trojan:Win32/Spursint.T!cl
This threat can do one or all of the following:
• Download and install other malware.
• Use your computer for click-fraud.
• Record your keystrokes and the sites you visit.
• Send information about your PC, including usernames and browsing history, to a remote malicious hacker.
• Give a remote malicious hacker access to your PC.
So now I have to decide if having this tool is worth letting this virus loose on my machine. OR maybe some goonie out there has the skills to remove it from the RAR file. Anyone, anyone, Beuhler?
