Comments:

It is same with BackOrifice.Trojan.

If it is run on a PC using TCP or UDP networking under Windows 9x or Windows NT, a remote user with the appropriate client software will be able to gain unauthorised access to the machine. The remote user will be able to read, write, delete and transfer files to and from the affected machine. If they use a plugin supplied with Back Orifice 2000 they will be able to see what is on the screen of the affected machine and also take control of the mouse and keyboard. The affected machine can also be configured to be an HTTP file server allowing anyone with a web browser to transfer files to and from it.

If it is configured to remain active after the computer is rebooted it will add a key containing the name of the infected file to the registry under:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices

The trojan exist in two versions, US and International. The only difference is that the US version includes the use of strong encryption on the information transferred between the affected machine and the remote client.
