I have seen over 10 systems in my department that have Netdde32, Netropa NHK
Server, and Dameware installed as windows services.  I have used netstat -a
-o and it shows a foreign IP address using these services.  I ran a trace on
the address and it was coming from out-of-state.    I know Dameware is a
remote connection program.



These services seem to install an icon on the taskbar, prevent the network
card from getting an IP address from the DHCP server.   I have no idea how
the system was comprised.



Does anyone know what these services do?  Netdde32 seems to work on port
2255.



I have renamed the administrator account, changed its password and blocked
the ports affected.  I removed or disabled the windows services.  I removed
any exe that were created during the hacking period.  There are no events in
the event log, but anyone can remove them.   Does anyone recommend anything
else?  I know I should format these systems.



Thanks

Andrew McCormack
