trojan_horse.pngFor those of you non-South Park folks...  Someone has done it again, put out another lame Trojan for the Mac.  Now, I know we don't really need to post this here on MacMod because all of you are waay too smart to make this mistake, just like Tuong-Lu Kim.  But, I swear, those damn Mongorians keep coming back to try and tear down my shitty fire-wrall.  This time its different though, I got the inside scoop of sweet and sour pork straight from the undercover Mongorian traitor, intego.com.

"A Trojan horse has been found in the wild masquerading as program for Mac OS X called 'PokerGame'. The Trojan in question is a shell
script encapsulated in an application, and is distributed in a 65 KB Zip
archive; unzipped, it is 180 KB.

"The Trojan horse, when run, activates ssh on the Mac on which it is
running, then sends the user name and password hash, along with the IP
address of the Mac, to a server. It asks for an administrator's password
after displaying a dialog saying, 'A corrupt preference file has been
detected and must be repaired.' Entering the administrator's password
enables the program to accomplish its tasks. After gaining ssh access to a
Mac, malicious users can attempt to take control of them, delete files,
damage the operating system, or much more."

I'm gonna get you Mongowians if ids da lasd ding I dooooooo!!!!!!!!!
