If this is the same one that I've used^H^H^H^Hgot a copy of, then it's a set 
of
utils designed to hack an RA BBS.  You upload a file infected by the virus,
which you infect with a dropper-type program included, and then the sysop
hopefully infects his computer.  The virus monitors the serial port, and when 
a
caller types a certain code (Can't remember what it/they were) it either 
ives
them max security level or lets them shell to dos, depending on the code you
send down the modem.
Excellent idea, but badly written.  There were two modes of operation for the
virus; a standard infect-everything-the-sysop-runs mode, and a simple
TSR-but-don't-infect version.  The problem was, RA.EXE wouldn't run after 
being
infected, so there was no possible way for it to work in that mode!  Plus the
code itself was badly written, with loads of bugs and file-access problems.
Anyway, it works /very/ well if you're interested in that kind of thing..
