That virus is called GozNym
Hello All: That new Trojan is called GozNym and is supposed to be a wicked combination of two types of malware. It infects when you either click on a fake banking website or open a suspicious email that it is attached to. From what I've heard, once in it's very bad and supposedly hard to detect. It steals banking information and has the ability to clean out your bank account. New hacker designed bug that came out in 2016. ( Check new Trojans for 2016) Has already caused a lot of problems for careless online users that click on the wrong site or open up the fake email it comes attached to.Thanks Baldrick and Jasper The Rasper for your replies. This bug is supposed to be pretty nasty once it gets in. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. mark79

Even though it is relatively new I am pretty certain that Webroot will have this one covered...they review & list over 200,000 files per day. ;)

Thanks Baldrick, it seems that they are always coming out with a new updated bug. I know that Webroot probably already knows about this one. Thanks again mark79
