Clicker
Trojan that visits a specific web page
Clickers are trojans that make a system visit a specific web page, often very frequently and usually with the aim of increasing the traffic recorded by the site and thus increasing revenue from advertising.
Clickers may simply send commands to web browser software or they may include their own web accessing functionality, or they may alter the hosts file so that all web traffic is redirected to the desired site. Clickers may also be used to carry out DDoS attacks.
