Alleged screenshots of OS 10.5 Leopard

It would not of effect a PC. Virus made for a mac have no effect on a Windows computer. Same goes the other way. It is one of the few times it would of been better to look at it though a PC since it can not be effected by it.

But this could just be a started. I wouldnt be surpised to see a real virus for the mac enter this way. It would not be wide spred becaue it how it needs to be activated.

It wouldn't technically be a virus since its not self-perpetuating. I believe that it would have fallen under the category Trojan, and there are already some of those for OS X. You should still be somewhat careful about what you download and run.

It begins...

Wow, out of all the places, I'd never expect that to happen here. Ban the user and his IP address, that's definitely the kind of people we don't need here. I hope this doesn't start something big. I'm just glad I didn't download anything

But still, yeah, BAN HIM (Rebel scum...)

Filthy scum. Too bad there is no physical payment to take vengeance upon these morons.

Will stick foot in mouth if a real image turns up...

I know that, I meant if I opened a file on windows that opened command prompt or installed something. However that would never happen because I never download files that i cannot identify. This one caught me off guard though, forgot how easy it was to change the icon.

ah one of the many reason why my windows box is set up to show all file extentions. Not just the unknows. Makes it a lot harder to hide it since I can just look down to the last one to see what it is

can someone pm the file to me, i would like to pull it apart and see exactly what it does and well how

PS. he should of just done rm -R ~/ that should require a password and would be deadly for some, anywho dont run that command as it will wipe your home drive

i repeat DO NOT RUN THE CMD

Yeah, you can post a deadly unix command on a forum and tell people not to run it, or you can not post it at all.

hmm... just discovered something else about this... it copied to every computer on my Bonjour network. I went on the PowerMac and it popped up as an incoming file transfer. So he succeeded in something.

Mods: PLEASE ban this member, attempting to distribute a Trojan horse on MacRumors is unacceptable.
