Ice Ice Baby Trojan isn't a plain vanilla threat

All right stop, collaborate, and listen. A new variant of the ZeuS financial malware platform known as Ice. This baby Trojan spawned from the original Ice IX is targeting bank customers on both sides of the pond. Here in the UK the 'big three' telecommunications providers are where it is flowing like a harpoon, daily and nightly. One thing is for sure, this ain't no vanilla ice attack.
