Description: 

This backdoor may be dropped by TROJ_MDROPPER.ZT.

This is the Trend Micro detection for a .DLL file used by BKDR_PCCLIEN variants for their respective malicious routines.

It is injected by the main component into various running processes on an affected system to make its detection and removal difficult.

This backdoor connects to a malicious site using a random TCP port where it sends and received data from the malicious user for its backdoor routines.

However, it needs its main malware component in order to execute and perform its own routines.
