There are a set of instructions at F-Secure which will walk you through a series of terminal commands.

(12,799 posts)8. That was an Apple hater?
I read it as a response to Apple hubris. Do you pretend that there haven't been some self-congratulatory threads when a Microsoft exploit has been introduced? I've seen the 'I don't worry, I've an Apple (sucker)' response here many, many times. There are some posters who have pretended to be immune from nasty viruses because Apple has a magic innoculation. A touch of sarcasm in the face of evidence to the contrary is not undeserved.
