	Symantec eerste met beveiliging tegen 'Trojan Horse' Back Orifice 2000

		Back Orifice 2000 bestaat uit twee delen: een cliënttoepassing en een servertoepassing.

		Back Orifice is probably the most famous remotely controlled agent currently available on the Internet.
		Because the Back Orifice server component tends to propagate via e-mail attachments or trojanized software downloads, its life cycle is typically detached from its client counterpart.
		The first version of NetBus predated Back Orifice, and was released in March 1998 with the intent of letting people "have some fun with his/her friends" and, according to the author, was meant to be neither an administration tool, nor a hacking tool.

		Back Orifice 2000 possesses stealth capabilities in all of its multiple modes of operation and yet possesses no direct capability of signalling its presence to the end user on their desktop.
		In addition, there is an "Insidious mode" built into Back Orifice 2000 which causes the filename associated with its startup file to become "illegal" and therefore invisible as well by stuffing a large number of space characters and an "e" at the end of the excessive filelength chain.

	Bad rap for Back Orifice 2000?
