Prg Banking Trojan information?

Yesterday's and today's "new" seems to be filled with the Prg Banking
Trojan news.  I have spent the last 90 minutes trying to find out
more information -- specifically do I really need to block these bots
at the edge (I think, yes) and how.  There seems to be a noticeable
lack of information about the network spaces, ports, etc., that the
trojan uses.  I have used google to search for Symantec and ZBOT, (or
Sophos or ...) and have found information about the trojan from June,
but nothing very specific about the current threat.

Does anyone have link for technical information about this?  I have
had as much of the media hype as I can stand.

TIA
