Trend Micro Ships Anti-Botnet Utility Trend Micro is testing a nifty anti-botnet utility capable of listening for botnet-related traffic on infected Windows machines. Trend Micro’s new RUBotted beta, available as a free download (.exe), is a lightweight program that intelligently monitors Windows machines for remote (command and control) commands sent from a bot-herder. These can include commands to turn the zombie machine into a spam relay; launch denial-of-service attacks; or host malicious Web sites for phishing attacks.
