Re: Virus - Autostart 9805

["Peter Corrigan" <corrigan@icon.co.za>]

Found more - Apple specific, very destructive root based worm.
Creates hidden file in root - db
Creates hidden file in system folder - desktop.printr.spooler (note
spelling)
Attacks and overwrites files .dat, .cod, .jpeg, .tiff and a couple of
others.
Said to be brand new, started out on 19 May or thereabouts.
Latest VIREX update dated 21 May has remedy.
That's all we know.
