| Nothing to see here, move along... It appears that this is merely a proof of concept virus, hence, it is utterly benign. It was not made with any malicious intent, but to demonstrate one way that OS X could be exploited. The discussion group is concerned with making OS X more secure, not less. Somehow, Intego got wind of it and blew it out of proportion, but I suppose it is theoretically possible that future viruses could be modeled on it. However I'm sure that Apple could, even more quickly, release a security update that fixes this
