Back Orifice trojan-horse, if it works like most other trojans, will just scan a range of IP addresses set by the trojan, for vulnerable machines to which it can spread itself......I doubt what's happened is a manual-attack, more a case of an infected machine automatically trying to spread the trojan to other vulnerable machines.

Report it, all the same, though...
