Rare security threat targets Macs
Apple Macs have been safe from viruses and trojan programs since the 1980s, but now a new script-based malware has been identified and dubbed Opener. This malware can disable Mac OS X's built-in firewall, steal personal information, or worse yet, destroy data on your Mac. Although the threat is minimal, the potential damange is real to the Mac user who are not accustomed to seeing the Mac being attacked.posted by Jambo Consulting at 10:40 AM
