Submission + - Demo Virus for Mac OS X Released
Juha-Matti Laurio writes: "Heise Security has a report about new Proof of Concept virus for Mac entitled as OSX.Macarena by AV vendor Symantec. Symantec suffered from a slight lapse when it recommended in the first version of the virus description that users clean the system by deactivating the system restoration (Windows ME/XP), which was covered with screenshot here. It is known that the virus infects other data in the folder in which it is started, regardless of extension, says Heise."
