According to IT security researchers, IT connectivity users that use IT services and surf the Internet should be very careful because there is a new type of malware that is considered to be "the most sophisticated threat today". The name of the botnet and the malware is TDL-4 and has infected 4.5 million computers already. Researcher Sergey Golovanov said that "The owners of TDL are essentially trying to create an indestructible botnet that is protected against attacks, competitors, and antivirus companies. To prevent other malicious programs not associated with TDL from attracting the attention of users of the infected machine, TDL-4 can now delete them. Not all of them, of course, just the most common."
