Don't Get Caught by the Boonana Trojan Mac Virus

"We told you about the Boonana Trojan Mac virus that was discovered by SecureMac just yesterday. SecureMac has now completed its initial analysis of the virus and has new information about it, as well as a removal tool if you believe your Mac is infected."

This virus usually gets into your system via one of those "Is this you in this video?" messages, usually from social networking sites such as Facebook. You click on it and it loads a java applet and the rest is history. Obviously don't click on links like that but if you do, you can download the removal tool here or keep updated on this and other security threats at the bulletin page for SecureMac. The removal tool can also be found on the bulletin page.
