Mac Defender "anti-virus" software is malware

IMPORTANT INFO TO MAC USERS - Mac Defender "anti-virus" software is malware - Click here to find out how to avoid or remove Mac Defender malware.

A recent phishing scam has targeted Mac users by redirecting them from legitimate websites to fake websites which tell them that their computer is infected with a virus. The user is then offered Mac Defender "anti-virus" software to solve the issue.

This “anti-virus” software is malware (i.e. malicious software). Its ultimate goal is to get the user's credit card information which may be used for fraudulent purposes.

The most common names for this malware are MacDefender, MacProtector and MacSecurity.

Apple released a free software update (Security Update 2011-003) that will automatically find and remove Mac Defender malware and its known variants.

The Resolution section below also provides step-by-step instructions on how to avoid or manually remove this malware.

Speaking to Maureen Casey, MD of Screenway, she commented “We wanted to start off 2011 on a really positive note. It’s tough times for everyone at the moment but it’s always important to remember things could be a lot worse. We came up with idea of ‘Toners for Charity’ and were delighted when Cancer Care West came on board, it something very unique I think it should catch on and hopefully raise badly needed funds for the charity. At Screenway we specialise in Apple and Windows computers but also supply a huge range of consumable products to the business and educational community in the West.
