| The company identifies two pieces of
| malware -- the previously undetected
| Silon.var2 and the longer-established
| Agent.DBJP - as the two bank Trojans being
| distributed by Zeus-based botnets using UK-
| infected PCs.
|
| Silon.var2 now affects 1 in every 500 UK-
| based PCs connected to the Trusteer
| Flashlight system, 40 times the detection
| level for the US, with Agent.DBJP affecting
| 1 in every 5,000 UK-based PCs, again far
| higher than for the US.
