That is a widely used tool that is dropped by various malware programs. I think even one of the JPEG exploits was 
dropping radmin.exe

It be better to assume you have a infection and prove yourself wrong than the other way around. Look into it pretty 
deep, I would suggest.

Radmin as a Virus ??!

hi ,list

I have installed Norton AntiVirus 2005 ,and when i open my 
F:\ directory ,Norton pops up and show that,"Norton AntiVirus 
has detected a virus on your computer" "Boject Name 
F:\radmin.exe" "Virus Name Hacktool".

Is RemoteAdministrator a commercial remote control software 
or a Hacktool ?

the following information is copied from the Radmin's site:
(http://www.radmin.com/)

"This fast, reliable, easy-to-use pc remote control software 
saves you hours of running up and down stairs between 
computers. Radmin allows you to take control of another PC on 
a LAN, WAN or dial-up connection so you see the remote 
computer's screen on your monitor and all your mouse 
movements and keystrokes are directly transferred to the 
remote machine. Radmin provides fast secure access to remote 
PC's on Windows platforms.  "
