A new Trojan attacks the Macs

A new trojan virus for OS X was identified by the security firm Intergo. Crisis, a malware application, is more complex than other viruses, which increase the difficulty of analysis and control of the virus, say security experts.
The Crisis Trojan can be installed without any user interaction on the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and OS X 10.7 Lion versions.
If the program is installed on an account with administrator rights on the Mac, Crisis will install more additional programs to be more difficult to detect it. Intego included in the VirusBarrier X6 the required tools to prevent infection.
The security company claims that the application includes self-protection measures similar to those of the viruses usually found on PCs with Windows.
