I have also had this notice since installing Kaspersky IS and e-mailed Barclays direct. Their reply:

On line banking - Barclays

Have read previous blogs, have just detected a phising virus when accessing the ibank.barclays site. Bottom comand line details the following: "(1 item remaining) Downloading picture https://www.sitaccesstrends.co.uk//WebAnalytics/trend.gif?ci=barclays&pn=PE_login_step1"
Have found the affending file in this case "5hGga.exe" now operating OK.
I hope it helps......

Anybody else using Barclays? Have you noticed that when you use the online banking it sends your logon id as a URL request to a third party: www.siteaccesstrends.co.uk ?

Okay so you still need your password and passcode, and it's a secure connection, but I still think sending part of your online banking credentials to somebody else isn't good.

How about reading their IB T&C and sending an email to the Information Comissioner if you have any doubt.

You *did* read the T&C's didn't you?
