This might be a good read for starters http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/security/trojan.html

Basically, they are bits of software that get on your PC through a variety of means that open up your machine to outside (ab)use.

I got wiped out by one before I got proper firewall installed.

Like many others seem to say, when I'm on Scoobynet it seems my backdoor gets a lot of attempted intrusions
