Tanspy Trojan Description

Tanspy Trojan (also known as Trojan.PWS.Tanspy) is a spyware application that records user's keystrokes. Tanspy Trojan installs itself as a Browser Helper Object (BHO) and has the ability to log your instant messenger and email conversations and therefore violate your privacy. It can also log every web page the user visits. Tanspy Trojan runs in stealth mode and in doing so remains hidden from the user who is unaware that his personal and financial data is at risk. Tanspy Trojan is also known to cause a severe system slowdown and its instability. Tanspy Trojan is considered a high-level threat and therefore should be removed upon detection.
