For whoever didn't hear, there is a Macintosh trojan in-the-wild being dropped, infecting mac users. Yes, it is being done by a regular online gang--itw--it is not yet another proof of concept. The same gang infects Windows machines as well, just that now they also target macs. http://sunbeltblog.blogspot.com/2007/10/screenshot-of-new-mac-trojan.html http://sunbeltblog.blogspot.com/2007/10/mackanapes-can-now-can-feel-pain-of.html This means one thing: Apple's day has finally come and Apple users are going to get hit hard. All those unpatched vulnerabilities from years past are going to bite them in the behind. I can sum it up in one sentence: OS X is the new Windows 98. Investing in security ONLY as a last resort losses money, but everyone has to learn it for themselves. Gadi Evron.
