First Mac Virus
http://it.slashdot.org/it/06/02/16/1322209.shtml
it appears that this is not actually a virus, but is a trojan since it requires the user to manually run the executable.
in other news: Apple embeds message to OSX hackers into OSX, and Mozilla Camino 1.0 Released.
disclaimer: i am a mac fan.

It's not the first, actually. There have been a few dozen. Not sure why everyone keeps calling it the first

Because it makes it look safer than it really is. Yes, this isn't the first, and it won't be the last, it's really only the beginning.
I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)
