How to tell if your PC has been infected by a Remote Administration Tool (RAT) such as ProRat?

Slow internet connection: Remote Administration Tools are constantly using your internet connection to send your private information to remote servers, as well as receive information from third party servers, which causes much slower internet connection speed and overall connection instability.
Uncontrollable PC behavior: If you notice that some of your files have been deleted, programs which you did not start are running, your mouse pointer starts moving without you control – it means that your computer has been infected with a RAT and is being controlled remotely.
