New virus/malware threat?

this article talks about a new threat (called Tigger.A trojan) that captures information from your stock trading accounts... and includes a rootkit that makes it difficult to discover/get rid of. Can someone comment on this?

Not sure what you want us to say, ESET detects it if that's what you're asking. Like I've said in a previous post, their claim that no AV's detected it was pretty rubbish, it was detected by ESET and a few other heuristically way before signature was added.

 

ok well that answers that.. but when I weent to eset's threat center I could not find it listed in the virus library....

 

It has the great name of Win32/Agent.NVU Then again a lot of AV's just detect it as agent.

Before the signature it was heuristically detected as a variant of Agent.

 

It has a pattern that is recognized by the Heuristics engine in NOD32..
