Abstract
“ It's malware that actually removes other malware from its victims' PCs. And so far, nobody is exactly sure how it's being distributed.
Security experts this week are buzzing about a new Trojan called Tigger.A, also known as Syzor. The data-stealing malware has quietly claimed about 250,000 victims since it was first spotted by security intelligence company iDefense in November, according to a Washington Post report.
