A REPORT ON the Mainichi Daily News web site says that a virus called Kintama is picking up details of P2P chat room users' PC screens and then spreading the details worldwide.
Winny - a popular file sharing program in Japan - is being particularly hard hit by Kintama, which apparently grasps file sharers by the cojones, squeezes out bank account numbers and publishes them world wide.
Kintama is clever enough to screen capture a person's PC once a day, and then file share it amongst other users.
Which could be highly embarrassing and costly.
Ouch! This does not appear to be a late April Fool's joke.
