Cybercrooks are trying to breach PCs through previously unexploited security holes in QuickTime and WinZip...The attacks involve malicious Web sites rigged with multiple exploits...The sites appear to be that of a trusted financial institution, but instead attempt to silently install keystroke-logging software...Links to the sites are likely advertised in spam...
