A new password-stealing Trojan that targets Skype has been spotted in the wild. It poses as a security plug-in for the popular VoIP service but instead presents its own log-in screen to steal your user name and password.
The Trojan calls itself “Skype-Defender,” and other than attempting to steal your Skype user name and password, it also swipes clean all user names and passwords saved in Internet Explorer.
