A few days ago, I was ratted by someone off of here.
The problem is, how do I know if I got it out or not?
If not, how can I get it out?
Thanks guys, just wondering.

I had a rat once, and i infected people, you can either ask the guy who has ratted you and ask him to remove it, or download a anti virus, OR restore from a backup off your computer. Evrytime your computer does a update or something it will make a backup, restore to a time where you know you wern't infected. Stay safe:D

How did you get the RAT in the first place? If it is a bad RAT then report the user from here and get them banned.

Well what your going to want to do first is disconnect from the internet, open up MalwareBytes if you do not have this already downloaded do it as quickly as possible then proceed to disconnect from the internet again. Run the full scan. Delete everything it has detected you have a good chance in deleting the rat with it. Also look through your task manager you also have a good chance in deleting the virus there. Look for any name that looks kind of weird to you also you do not want to delete the wrong thing because that wouldn't be good. You still having trouble let me know and I would be more the happy to help you out in this matter.

Use System Restore to go back to an earlier backup.
If you don't want to do that, then use Malwarebytes, or SuperAntiSpyware Technician's Edition in Safe Mode. Just run a full scan on either of these and delete anything it picks up
