Is your Mac among the 600K Mac inflected with Flashback trojan

I don’t know if it’s true that so many Mac worldwide got inflected with Flashback trojan.

Anyhow there is a simple way to check whether your are inflected with Terminal.app. In case you are too scared to fire up Terminal or too lazy to copy & paste the verify & removal commands from F-Secure, I just put together an AppleScript to verify for you.

My AppleScript helps you to VERIFY whether your are safe

or inflected

It doesn’t REMOVE the trojan.

You can download my AppleScript Flashback Trojan I Checker here. Just double click to run the AppleScript app.

BTW, Apple has release a Java security update for patch the vulnerabilities. You definitely should do a Software Update.

Updates: Apple just releases a second Java security update!

I’m back!

It’s been a long time since my last online appearance. I finally redesigned my site and with the amazing blosxom.

My next goal is to refine my AppleScript application “MidiConverter 2.0” which will incorporate 3GP export option. There’s some issue for different CPU that I need to work it out.

Another new is about FlashLite enabled mobile phone is finally here. The Sony Ericsson W800 is first on the market with FlashLite installed as standard world wide. I’m expecting to have some FlashLite stuff coming. But that really depends on my day job.

Happy surfing.
