Back Orifice - Watch Out - November 12th, 1998 (updated)
Back Orifice (BO) is a deadly trojan (similar to a virus)
which, once running on a machine, renders that machine
completely open and insecure to the Internet. Obviously, this
only happens when you are online, but the consequences could be
devastating. Formatting your Hard Disk Drive, reading your
files, etc are all things that BO can do. Find out whether you
have it and how you can get rid of it here.
