Mac PDF malware warning

Security company Sophos warned today of a new type of malware that is affecting Mac users.

The malware is a Mac app that poses as a PDF. If opened, the PDF presents a Chinese language document concerning the disputed Diaoyu (Senkaku) Islands. (see attachment). But meanwhile, it tries to install a backdoor Trojan horse which would give malicious hackers remote access to your Apple Mac computer.

Sophos says it detects this malware as OSX/Imuler-A. You can read the full warning at http://gay.gl/eP and more importantly, you can do a free scan using the Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition software located at http://gay.gl/eQ

I'm on it!

Oh, that's not 8 words!

I also received the same warning message but there is nothing to worry. Just scan your pdf file some good scanner. Don use free version of antivirus. Look for some licenses version.

Thanks,
