Security Advisory: Srv.SSA-KeyLogger

Here's some more about the "latest" key logger and there's a download to check your system for it. It seems to just exploit IE, so far....

" The spyware keylogger, named Srv.SSA-KeyLogger is a backdoor program that injects a process into Internet Explorer that opens various ports through which it monitors for certain values typed using your keyboard (i.e.; specific characters, numbers, etc.). When it encounters any of the values for which it is searching, it saves the keystrokes into a text file. When the file reaches a certain size, Srv.SSA-KeyLogger, sends a notification packet with the key stroke information to a Web site so the information can be easily accessed by the person(s) stealing the information. After which, it repeats the process."
