You must download the RADA Virus if you want to “play” along. The RADA Virus is a REAL VIRUS SO BE CAREFUL…
The RADA VIRUS was created several years ago to test other geeks participating in the HONEYNET Project. Also download one of the best solutions to the RADA Challenge (But don’t read the solution, yet…).
Make three folders in you working directory called: Baseline, Infected and Start_and_Stop. Start your machine (After you clone your pristine VMWARE Win2000 Machine). When you machine completely boots suspend your machine. Another term often used for suspend is “pause” because the VMWARE “Suspend” Button looks just like a regular “Pause” button. . Copy the VMEM file from you VM Directory into your working directory titled” Baseline”.
In my example I am copying the VMEM file from my VMWARE Machine Called Win2000-Rada.VMEM to the working “Baseline” Folder.
Now Resume the machine and add the RADA Virus. I choose to originally copy the virus to a CD so I place the CD in the machine and copy RADA to a Folder called "Virus" on my Desktop.
Now double click on RADA. Wait a second and “Suspend” the machine.
If you did not run the Connection Wizard prior to infection you will probably see the following:
Copy the VMEM file to you “Infected” Folder. Resume your machine. Using your machine’s own functions restart the machine. Once the machine reboots suspend the machine again and copy the VMEM file to the Stop_and_Start Folder.
So now we have 3 VMEM files copied into our three working folders.
Run PTFinder or PTFinderFE against the “baseline” VMEM and review the chart.
Now run PTFinder or PTFinderFE against the “Infected” VMEM and review you chart. You should see something like the following:
In our example the Offset of RADA= 0x15a4d60
To make my life easier I just copy cmd.exe, lspm.exe and p2x588.dll (needed by lspm.exe to run) into my “Infected” working directory. Run cmd.exe which opens to your working folder and type the following:
lspm Win2000-Rada 0x15a4d60 (and Enter)
Rada.dmp is created and put in the “Infected” Working Folder. Rada.dmp is a copy of the RADA.Exe Program as copied out of volatile memory.
Open Rada.dmp with AnalogX’s TextScan and look for important information. The following is a truncated sample of the text taken from my exam.

Wow there is a lot of information in the little DMP File. Now go look at the Solution you downloaded. Our 15 minutes of research is not too shabby.
