Be sure your anti-virus software is up-to-date.
A program that apparently has been arounfd for a while is making a comeback. "Zeus" is a virus that steals online banking details from infected computer users. Apparently, it is more powerful than ever.
A web security company that published this report says that it has spotted the Trojan style virus in one of every 3,000 of the 5½ million computers it monitors in the US and UK.
"Zeus 1.6" can infect people using either Firefox or IE.
It works by recording login keystrokes when the infected user is on a list of target websites of banks and other financial institutions. The information is then sold.
Keep up guard up.
