Back Orifice is located on SourceForge.net (yes it's always been an open
source program, which is why it's such a pain as a virus).

I personally like the power of Back Orifice, but the Desktop power of VNC is
much better.

I think there is someone trying to combine the Desktop control of VNC with
Back Orifice.

Other than the fact that the Back Orifice 2000 web home seems to no longer
exist, here are a couple of links that users should consider before using
this program.

The first comes from the Symantec Anti-Virus Research Center:
    http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/back.orifice.2000.trojan.html

The second comes from the Privacy Software Corporation:

I do not use or endorse this program, and as Mac states below, you have been
warned: Caveat Emptor!!!
