Released in August 2006

MadCow is a stealth trojan for Windows 2000/XP/2003.
It's a win32 controlpanel-applet (.cpl) file, that hides itself in the system service 'svchost.exe'
so it can't be closed.


Instructions:
1) Install the Madcow trojan on the victims computer using the included installer.

2) At your own computer open a telnet connection to the victim on port 579.
   Now you just see a blank screen... Now type: "letmein" and press return.

3) You should now see the text "/$". Now you can type in your command. (see list of commands).

Commands:
ps  	  = Process list. This shows you a list of all the open programs on the victims computer.
kill 	  = Kills a process. Use like: "kill 3519". (Hint: To shutdown the computer kill 'winlogon').
cmd  	  = Opens a command prompt with admin rights, so you can do almost everything 
            you want on the victims computer.
uninstall = Disables madcow autorun function.
exit 	  = Exit MadCow.
