Apple Developing Program To Remove Flashback Trojan Malware

Yesterday Apple issued a support document relating to the Flashback Trojan malware that infects OS X computers. Previously we detailed this malware that infects computers exploiting a Java vulnerability that Apple patched last week. Reportedly this program has affected more than 600,000 Mac computers around the globe.

While third parties have developed tools to test for Flasback infection, Apple says they are developing their own software to detect and delete the malware:

“Apple is developing software that will detect and remove the Flashback malware”.

Also Apple has been working with Internet service providers all over the world to disable servers sending commands to the software.
