Title: Unix:Sendmail [Expl] Virus
Post by: Amageing on February 09, 2013, 10:38:36 AM

Hey guys,
              Sorry to bother you but if you could tell me what steps I should take to make sure this virus (Unix:Sendmail [Expl]) is completely gone. I have deleted it and I'm running a full scan on my mac.

Thanks,

Amageing

No it was from a Password Dictionary download, (I forgot my password to my Wifi so I was going to crack it to get back in, which obviously worked...) and yeah I deleted it immediately so I should be cool :) Thanks for your help!
