Mac owners who downloaded pirated ("free") versions of iWork '09 and
Photoshop CS4 - said to be 20,000 downloads - also received the
iServices trojan.  The trojan has reportedly begun to activate for DSS
attacks.  Details:

Don't much pity those who d/l pirated software, but it is disturbing to
see OS X vulnerabilities exploited (even though this trojan requires
human stupidity to actually install it).

Thank you,

Mark Snyder
