Marc Wielage Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Fix #2011-003 is already available: http://support.apple.com/downloads/ Apple did commit a grievous error in initially downplaying the virus and also instructing telephone support to shrug it off. Not cool. The good news is that users would actually have to install the virus in order for it to take over, but some people are wacky and will click on any old menu that comes up. --Marc W.
