WARNING if you found any file in the search then first of all make sure that it is included here in the list before you do anything with it.

To make it easier for you just sort the files by name to know what letter that file is starting with. When I say for example abc.* that means any file named abc with any extension like abc.exe or abc.log or abc.doc ... and so on ... and when I say like abc*.exe that means any exe file starts with abc like abc.exe or abc1.exe or abcefg.exe ... and so on ... so when I say like abc*.* it means any file that starts with abc and with any extension like abc.txt or abc.exe or abc77.vbs or abcdwq.dl_ ... and so on.

You can easily copy one line (by treble-clicking on it of example) and paste it in the find box (click Start ... choose Find ... choose Files or Folders) but first make sure that you can view all files , to be able to do so, select "Show all files" from the folder options, I listed all hack files I know, but that doesn't mean this page is including all hacking files.

Check every line:

Search for these files in Windows OR Winnt directory ONLY

FILE-1

Search for these files in Windows\System OR Winnt\System32 directory ONLY

 FILE-2
 
Search for these files in ALL the folders in the hard disk in your PC. but make sure that they are NOT related to a program that you are using

(It is a long list I know)  anyway. Normally they will be found within the C: main path or ("C:\Windows" ,,, "C:\Program Files" ,,, "C:\Documents and Settings" and their subdirectories)
 
FILE-3

Something else, search for this file with this format *server*.exe ... if you found anything then you have to think more than once about it ... (not all of them will be a backdoor of course) ... do the same thing with any strange file-name that you see in your PC.

If you also found a file with this format *.xxx.xxx (like picture.jpg.pif or document.doc.vbs) then most probably it will be a hacking file or a virus ... Get red of it 

Also if you found a file with the name of #.* (only a number or a string of numbers with an extension of .exe or .com) then you have to take caution ... it might be a hacking file ...
* Some people asked me about a good Anti-Virus software for them to use ... well ... it is hard to say that this one is better than that one ... but I am using Kaspersky.
