Troj/Ranck-DJ is a Trojan for the Windows platform.
When run, Troj/Ranck-DJ sets the following registry entry in order to run each time a user logs on:

Myfault
"<Path to Trojan EXE>"
The Trojan listens on a random port for incoming connections and allows remote attackers the ability to route HTTP traffic through the infected computer.
