tee-hee-hee (said from behind my linux firewall)Last week, astute Mac users discovered a program dubbed “Opener.� This piece of code embeds itself onto Macs running OS X, the latest Apple operating system, and disables the computer’s firewall. The malware also locates and collects any password information it can find on the infected system, leaving behind a password-cracking program called “John the Ripper.� It is believed that Opener can be called into action remotely utilizing a “bot net,� in which a remote hacker plants malware onto unsuspecting users’ computers and then calls that code into action.
