Is your antivirus current?  Most anti-virus software has a subscription to virus signatures.  I strongly suggest you check your software and see if you need to update to protect your identity.

The malware is appropriately called “Gameover” because once it’s on your computer, it can steal usernames and passwords and defeat common methods of user authentication employed by financial institutions. And once the crooks get into your bank account, it’s definitely “game over.” Gameover is a newer variant of the Zeus malware, which was created several years ago and specifically targeted banking information.
