We have been talking a lot about the Flashback Trojan that hit the Mac OS X users few days back and Apple was quick enough to get the malware out with a Software Update. But today, the company has released a light weight Flashback Removal Toolfor the users who have disabled Java from their Macs. The trojan used a security hole in the Java Virtual Machine/Runtime Environment on the Mac and it spread like forest fire to over 60,000 Mac computers across the Globe.
This standalone utility weighs just 356KB and is capable of removing the Troja from your Mac. This is only for the users who do not have Java on their Macs and still have the Flashback Trojan installed in them. If you are a Lion user and want to stay away from Flashback Trojan, then you’d probably want to install this piece of Software that Apple has pushed and get rid of the cruel Trojan from your computer.
