Group:

I have seen a couple incidents involving Troj/Qbot-B -- have others recently encountered this virus?

Known alias are:

  • Backdoor.Win32.IRCBot
  • W32/Sdbot.worm
  • Backdoor:Win32/Qakbot.gen!A

Any details and insights about this virus would be most helpful.

Specifically, any hacking tools installed upon gaining remote control of system? Whether remote control is possible with this virus? The mechanism of control (ie. IRC issued instructions)?

Best regards, Robert Hudock
