a virus in the wild, part two

More information is available about the first Mac OS worm in the wild. The best summary, including a detailed discussion of what the virus does and how to delete if it you were infected, is available from Symantec.

Another worm has surfaced. This time it appears to be a proof-of-concept worm that spreads via BlueTooth. Symantec has a good write-up of this one, too. I have to admit a bit of amusement at a worm that creates a Preferences file with 'pwned' in the name, as this one does.
