Troj/Ranck-CQ is a proxy Trojan for the Windows platform.

The following registry entry is created to run the Trojan on startup:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

<path to Trojan>

Troj/Ranck-CQ listens on a randomly selected TCP port between 1025 and 9997 inclusive. A remote attacker may connect to this port in order to route internet traffic via the infected computer.

Troj/Ranck-CQ advertises its presence by encoding the number of this port in a UDP packet sent to each of several preconfigured IP addresses.
