Worm Found in Apple
Published by eJone 2 years, 10 months ago in Click News, Security Tags: antivirus, security, software.
The first ever virus for the Mac OS X was discovered. This worm, called Leap-A, spreads through the iChat software, an instant messaging system that’s available only on the Mac.
Apple however, claims that it is technically NOT a virus due to the fact that it requires the user to actually download and launch it.
Either way, does this mean Mac users can’t expect to be smug anymore now?
