This is getting serious. Just add automatic installation, and you'll own quite a large Macnet.

 

Sounds like a "magnet".

 

Intego is quite slow.ESET already detected it last two weeks:http://www.eset.eu/podpora/aktualizacia-6106?lng=en

 

This is getting worse...

 

Intego is like Apple, if it finds something it uses it's own names. So MacDefender.F may not be the same in ESET vs Intego. Plus, I did not see MacDefender.G in ESET like I did in Intego's blog post.

 

for eset they are

OSX/TrojanDownloader.FakeAlert.A for avRunner
and
OSX/AdWare.MacDefender.I for MacGuard

 

Good to see ESET is on the ball. Eset sig was was May 26(today) Intego sigs were 25th This for the poster above . I always kind of worry the Mac versions don't get the love that the PC versions do.
