"BadTrans" virus info

[anne.pamperl@hhss.state.ne.us]

I received the following info yesterday from a friend in NC/US.  Be sure to

check out the article as it gives details on how the virus works.



You've probably heard, but there's a very intrusive new virus just

jumped out.  It doesn't destroy files, instead it can find and send

personal data to others (Credit Card & Soc Sec numbers, passwords, etc.)

AND it can copy down every keystroke you enter, and transmit them to

others.  Not a good one to ignore!



This is the BBC news story about it.
