Slovenian police have arrested four suspects amid allegations that the four developed the Mariposa botnet malware. The arrests come of the heels of a joint investigation between Slovenian police and the FBI.

Earlier this year, three suspects were arrested in Spain and are charged with distributing the malware. According to STA, a Slovenian news agency, the four suspects are through to have developed the malware used by the Spaniards.

Investigators say the Mariposa botnet may have infected up to 12.7 million PCs around the globe. During the arrests in Spain, police found the banking information of around 800,000 people.
