For the BioNet Lite, it uses 5000 TCP as default port, and the general version uses 12349 TCP as default port. This default port can be changed with editing program by a remote attacker. Once a system is infected , it alters Wininit.ini and replaces explorer.exe with explorer.e. It may also infect Awadrp32.exe, Mkcompat.exe and Rnaap.exe. BioNet makes it impossible to reboot to DOS mode to delete the trojan. It evades anti-virus and firewall programs. Every server sent out is possible to be unique with combinations of more than 50 different features using the server builder. Because of this may manual removal instruction not be totally reliable.
