In the three months since this article was published, there have been only a couple of reports of it being found - probably because the users did not use good passwords. It is not a virus or a worm, but more of a trojan horse that could be installed manually.

Apple corrected the vulnerability with the 10.3.7 automatic update.

This can't be true, MACS and Linux are immune to these types of attacks.
