Weird thing happening here. Mrs F getting problems logging into Barclays online banking over past 2 days with some random white screens and requests to type in extra info to reset her login. She was wary and after a couple of calls to Barclays she got put onto their IT security team who, in a nutshell, said we had some virus/trojan on our PC that was redirecting her to a spoof webpage.
They suspended her online banking for 24hrs and mailed an instruction that we should download & run Kaspersky then try some Trend Micro Housecall thing.
We use MSE which is up to date and shows no issues so very reluctant to dump and go with Kaspersky. I did run the Trend Housecall which showed us as all clean.
I wondered if Barclays were being economical with the truth and the redirect was happening higher up the chain... say from certain ISPs or even at the Barclays website itself.
Note exactly the same happens trying on our laptop at home but Mrs F can log on from work OK on their PC (different ISP and 20mls away).
There is some stuff on the net about a trojan that might do this that's been around for several years.
Any thoughts?
