If until now we all thought that Apple’s Mac computers are almost unreachable by viruses or malware software things are changing. Security software firm Sophos and its Asia Pacific head of technology Paul Ducklin said that OSX/RSPlug-A Trojan horse is one of the first pieces of Mac malware written by cyber criminals.

The Trojan horse changes DNS servers on your Apple Mac computer and you’re redirected to a website that sells pornography or probably medications. In this way the hijacker is making a lot of money, while the user blames the connection.

Another threat to Mac users are “scareware” and it’s software that claims to find security threats and nail them for free. You get the opposite.
