In June, Doctor Web security researchers examined a new dangerous virus targeting Russian bank clients. The virus is designed to steal money from bank accounts and monitor user activity. It has borrowed a lot of features from its predecessors Zeus (Trojan.PWS.Panda) and Carberp. Yet, unlike them, it can be spread without any user intervention infecting executable files. Besides, curing of the infected computer is rather complicated and may take several hours.
