Trickbot Virus

Anti-Spyware-101.com research team warns about a new threat, Trickbot Virus. This is a banking Trojan that is likely to have been created by the same people who stood behind the already dismantled Dyre Trojan, also known as Dyreza Trojan. The loaders of both of these infections are practically identical, and they serve the same purpose. The differences between these infections are in the programming language (the new version was created using C++, and Dyre was created using C language) and programming interfaces (the new version uses Microsoft CryptoAPI). Other than that, both Trojans are very similar, which is why it is believed that they were developed by the same group of cyber criminals. As mentioned already, the new version of the infection is identified as a banking Trojan and, needless to say, it targets online banking accounts. Although, at the moment, this infection is localized in Australia, we do not dismiss the possibility that it will cross-over at some point in the future. Regardless of where you live, check if you need to remove Trickbot Virus, and implement security software to ensure protection against this malware. Read more »
