An antivirus company has detected a new Trojan attack that steals e-banking details when users log into legitimate banking sites. Security experts say they have discovered a Trojan horse that records e-banking user details and Web surfing habits.

Antivirus company Sophos is warning that the Banker-AJ Trojan is targeting online customers of banks such as Abbey, Barclays, Egg, HSBC, Lloyds TSB, Nationwide and NatWest.

"This type of Trojan is something [we] have been aware of for some time. We are working with industry to identify the next steps to help combat fraud and are interested in educating customers."
