Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - January 2007 (KB890830)
Malicious Software Encyclopedia: Win32/Haxdoor
Win32/Haxdoor is a family of rootkit-capable backdoor trojans which gather and send private user data to remote attackers. Collected data might include user names and passwords, credit card numbers, bank logon credentials, or other sensitive financial information. Files and processes related to a Win32/Haxdoor infection may be hidden by a kernel-mode rootkit component, detected by Microsoft as WinNT/Haxdoor. Win32/Haxdoor can also disable security-related software and redirect the infected user’s URL connection requests.
