Summary

Backdoor:Win32/Hupigon.FK is a member of Win32/Hupigon - a family of backdoor trojans. A Win32/Hupigon infection typically includes a dropper component (Trojandropper:Win32/Hupigon) and two to three additional files that the dropper installs. These additional files include Backdoor:Win32/Hupigon, the main backdoor component, and Backdoor:Win32/Hupigon!hook, a stealth component that hides files and processes associated with Win32/Hupigon. The trojan dropper may also install PWS:Win32/Hupigon, a plugin that logs keystrokes and steals passwords. Win32/Hupigon may support other malicious plugins as well.
