    Default Pirated iWork 2009 hosts trojan !!

    Techies who are using pirated copies of iWork 2009 suite were rudely jolted when they came to know they are in turn hosting a Trojan in the systems. The malware attaches itself to the suite and people foolish enough to download it are swearing by it. Upon installation it immediately downloads another trojan file termed OSX.Trojan.iServices.A and takes over the control of the system by gaining root access. Remote connections to a malware server are subsequently established by the trojan.
