Att fellow Apple fans - what's this virus that's supposed to hit the Mack's all about?

The virus that has hit almost 600 000 Mac computers is the flashback trojan.

It copies itself to your computer without prompting you, as a java program (sometimes disguising itself as an Adobe Flash Player download, but not always), and it searches for your personal information from there.

To avoid it, I would make sure that you are always visiting trusted websites, never download anything (especially Adobe Flash Player) that is not from it's official host website, and don't install random software that pop up when browsing around.

To check if you have it, download this simple application.

But, Apple has released a Java update for this trojan, and if you have Xcode or any good anti-virus installed, you'll be fine.
