An article from Wired reports that the recent worm BugBear.B (distributed via email as an exclusive to Windows users) contains keystroke- logging code specifically designed to find passwords for financial institutions.
All versions of Windows 95+ are affected.
This is believed to be the first time that a worm (or any virus) was targeted at a particular industry.
