Banker.LGG is a Trojan, which although seemingly inoffensive, can actually carry out attacks and intrusions.

It reduces the security level of the computer: it changes the security settings of Internet Explorer, decreasing its security level.

Banker.LGG uses the following propagation or distribution methods:

• Exploiting vulnerabilities with the intervention of the user: exploiting vulnerabilities in file formats or applications. To exploit them successfully it needs the intervention of the user: opening files, viewing malicious web pages, reading emails, etc.
• File infection: it infects different types of files, which are then distributed through any of the usual means: floppy disks, email messages with attachments, Internet download, files transferred via FTP, IRC channels, P2P file sharing networks, etc.
