Another Mac Malware is added to the approximately 150 total Apple Mac Malware list . . . And of course this is another Trojan Horse, which means you can only inflict it on yourself by downloading it, installing it, and running it for the first time yourself. AGAIN, it is masquerading as an Adobe Flash Player installer/updater so the best way to avoid being infected by this malware is to JUST SAY NO TO ADOBE FLASH PLAYER! —PING!


JUST SAY NO TO ADOBE FLASH!
BE SAFE APPLE PING!

If you want on or off the Apple/Mac/iOS Ping List, Freepmail me.

Hi Swordmaker,

I've been getting the pop-ups to "update flash" for weeks on my Mac Mini. I think (I hope) that I've avoided them successfully. Nevertheless I am concerned about how to tell if a Mac is infected with this cretinous shite. I have users with Macs who run Flash...

(And confession: I run Flash Player, too, I have to for certain dayjob-related things I do, sigh.)

So,... my question is, which tool(s) can tell me if a Mac has this malware on it? and which tool(s) can get rid of it?

Thanks in advance.
