Me and Cody (Byt3) have found many of the ways a lot of the members have been getting infected. I will be writing a guide on how to stay protected.
1. Go ahead and install a free antivirus. It is better then nothing. I recommend avast its a great antivirus. Located at this website http://www.avast.com/en-us/index
2. The ways UAE DM team have been infecting members is through a Java Drive By (AKA: JDB). What a java drive by is, is a java message will pop up on your screen looking like this: if you push "Run" it will install a rat on your computer. RAT's is a tool that allows the person to have full control of your computer. NOTE: All things that look like the popup above is NOT a rat. For example when playing the game runescape it will pop up. Those are safe, but if someone sends you a random site, and that pops up DONT push run. It will infect you, which is how multiple of our members have gotten infected.
3. One quick tool to use is this http://download.bshades.eu/download....detect.torrent
It was made by a company that creates malware, but this tool detects any rats on your computer, yes it is created by someone that creates malware, but they also made a tool to detect any malware on your computer, dont worry it is 100% safe.
Me and Cody have been looking into this for a while, we have traced the IP's of which the RAT's are resolving to enabling us to match them up on the forums, all members found ratting people will be found, banned and most likely reported. If anyone suspects themself of being infected, PLEASE feel free to contact me or Cody, we would like to take the program and reverse engineer it to trace the IP.
PS:
To get rid of a very common RAT going around SARP type this in
PSS:
Another good tip only IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!
