  Apple hit by backdoor virushttp://hothardware.com/News/600000-Macs ... ck-Trojan/
Now that they have a bigger market share, this kind of thing will be increasingly common...bye-bye to the myth of "my Apple doesn't suffer viruses" by all the technically clueless apple owners.  _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place?

Re: Apple hit by backdoor virus Yeah, what's with that. I never understood how Apple computers would be immune from viruses / virii (latin grammar nazi in me yearns for correctness).

Re: Apple hit by backdoor virus Apple's based of Free-BSD which is a Unix variant... and there's plenty of Unix/Linux malware out there. They were just too small a target to be worth the time. Oh how things change. Of course, I've been saying this for years... glad the haughty mac users are getting their come-uppance. Sorry to the not-so-haughty mac users, but welcome to reality.
Being on Windows 7, I'm immune from viruses. Buy Viagra! _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |
