Hi, I was researching an issue with flash player and the article linked below from ZDNET led me to check if I had either of the directories it refers to on my machine. Article: http://www.zdnet.com/article/new-mac-malware-spies-on-you-via-adium-firefox-safari-skype/ Here are the directories I found on my system: /Library/ScriptingAdditions/appleHID/ /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/XPCServices/ I was concerned so I ran Sophos (I have the latest free version) and did a scan but it says "No threats found". I realize that the trojan will supposedly not work on systems running Mountain Lion or later (I'm on Yosemite 10.10) but I'm surprised that Sophos just ignores it. So, should I delete these folders? Does anyone have any idea what other files this thing creates? Incidentally I found these directories on both my iMac and my Macair which are both on Yosemite 10.10. This is really freaking me out as I am shocked that Sophos neither reported it nor cleaned it up. Any information or help appreciated. James |
