....just got this 10mins ago, watch out. Someone with the belief that their Mac is invincible might just go on with the install.

Was in the apple store this weekend, it was kind of amusing how many people were there because they installed that shit.

Any computer designed for human input is going to be susceptible to people getting tricked into installing nasty stuff, because the computer isn't the weakness in that equation.

I find it almost humorous that considering the low volume of malware written for Macs that it is a rogueAV that gets widely spread.
