Trojan Horse Virus Attacks Mac OS X

Posted by TimSlavin at April 12, 2004

"Thanks to Apple Computer's rising star in the world of digital music, Mac OS X has become a target for malware authors.

A Trojan horse, called MP3Concept or MP3Virus.gen, has been discovered that masquerades as an MP3 file. It hides in ID tags of the file and becomes activated when unwary users click on it, expecting to play a digital song."

The good news (and bad news): this virus doesn't do anything. From Wired.
