>>>Not Possible! Swordmaker and the macbots have told me that only windows gets stuff like this.
Not exactly Troll...
It has been always said here, by Swordmaer, and plenty of other Mac users that people need to be responsible, and make sure they are keeping their OS updated with the latest updates from Apple, and making sure they only supply admin passwords when prompted from TRUSTED sources, and use one of any number of protective countermeasure applications.
Mac is no different from Windows. A machine operated by an idiot who is completely lax or ignorant to protecting the machine is going to get infected by something detrimental to it sooner or later.
Now 4Q, quit being such a troll, and help people to learn, and understand that no matter what OS they use, they need to protect their systems from external threats rather than be the ass that you regularly are on these types of threads.
Alas, poor 4Q, he can't help it. It's a disorder, rather like Tourette's:
Tourette's was once considered a rare and bizarre syndrome, most often associated with the exclamation of obscene words or socially inappropriate and derogatory remarks (coprolalia)... (Wikipedia)Trolls like 4Q have no interest in helping anyone. They would be thrilled if suddenly all of Apple's customers developed leprosy. They're like the jerk who, seeing someone who has lost their balance, walks over to them and trips them so that they fall over completely.
Other than that, 4Q's just a boring ol' troll, and his attempts to bait reasonable people can be ignored. But he's occasionally fun to bait back. :)
This is my way of helping. For years people have listened to the lies of macbots and being over the top helps drive home the point to everyone that isn’t a zealot. Many have been brainwashed and lied to so it’s not going to be easy reprogramming them. I’m doing my part though. Also this is now the lead drudge story...that will help too. If we all do our part we can break through the fud apple has spread for years about other products.
Btw I think you missed the part that says this installs withOUT admin password. So even responsible users can and have gotten this malware.
Microsoft used to blame the users too.
