More Information

Troj/Dorf-Gen is a family of backdoor Trojans for the Windows platform.

Members of Troj/Dorf-Gen typically attempt to drop a file with a SYS extension to the Windows system folder. This file is registered as a new system driver service with a startup type of automatic, so that it is started automatically during system startup. Registry entries are created under:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\<service name>

Members of Troj/Dorf-Gen also usually attempt to inject another file into services.exe. This file may create the clean file <System>\peers.ini, as well as download and execute code from the internet, and provide backdoor functionality to allow access to the computer by a remote user.
