  F-Secure Virus Descriptions : BO2K NAME: BO2K ALIAS: Back Orifice 2000 Back Orifice 2000 is a new version of the famous Back Orifice backdoor trojan (hacker's remote access tool). It was created by the Cult of Dead Cow hackers group in July 1999. Originally the BO2K was released as a source code and utilities package on a CD-ROM. There are reports that some files on that CD-ROM were infected with CIH virus, so the people who got that CD might get infected and spread not only the compiled backdoor, but also the CIH virus. The first binary version of BO2K was compiled and spread in the US. A few days later there appeared an international version of this backdoor. With the time there may appear lots of versions of BO2K with different compilers and having different features. As its previous versions, the Back Orifice 2000 backdoor has 2 major parts: client and server. The server part needs to be installed on a computer system to gain access to it with the client part. The client part connects to the server part via network and is used to perform a wide variety of actions to remote system. The client part has a dialog interface that eases the process of hacking of the remote computer. Here's the screenshot of the client part.
