Apple's Mac platform has long been promoted as safer than the competition, but as Mac sales and market share grow, it's become a bigger target.

Nowhere is that clearer than with the Flashback Trojan, a gnarly piece of malware designed to steal personal information by masquerading as very mainstream browser plug-ins. Yesterday Russian antivirus company Dr. Web said that an estimated 600,000 Macs are now infected as a result of users unknowingly installing the software.

So here's a quick FAQ on the Flashback Trojan, including information on what it is, how to tell if you have it, and steps you can take to get rid of it.

What exactly is Flashback?
Flashback is a form of malware designed to grab passwords and other information from users through their Web browser and other applications such as Skype. A user typically mistakes it for a legitimate browser plug-in while visiting a malicious Web site. At that point, the software installs code designed to gather personal information and send it back to remote servers. In its most recent incarnations, the software can install itself without user interaction.

When did it first appear?
Flashback as we know it now appeared near the end of September last year, pretending to be an installer for Adobe's Flash, a widely used plug-in for streaming video and interactive applications that Apple no longer ships on its computers. The malware evolved to target the Java runtime on OS X, where users visiting malicious sites would then be prompted to install it on their machine in order to view Web content. More advanced versions would install quietly in the background with no password needed.

How did it infect so many computers?
The simple answer is that the software was designed to do exactly that. In its initial incarnation, the malware looked very similar to Adobe's Flash installer. It didn't help that Apple hasn't shipped Flash on its computers for well over a year, arguably creating a pool of users more likely to run the installer in order to view popular Web sites that run on Flash. In its newer Java-related variants, the software could install itself without the user having to click on anything or provide it with a password.

What also didn't help is the way that Apple deals with Java. Instead of simply using Java's current public release, the company creates and maintains its own versions. As it turns out, the malware writers exploited one particular vulnerability that Oracle patched in February. Apple didn't get around to fixing its own Java version until April.

What has Apple done about it?
Apple has its own malware scanner built into OS X called XProtect. Since Flashback's launch, the security tool has been updated twice to identify and protect against a handful of Flashback variants.

A more recent version of the malware, however, got around XProtect by executing its files through Java. Apple closed off the malware's main entry point with a Java update on April 3, and has since released a removal toolas part of a subsequent Java update. Buku manual mesin absensi amano ex3500n.

Of note, the Java security fixes are only available on Mac OS X 10.6.8 and later, so if you're running OS X 10.5 or earlier, you will still be vulnerable. Apple has stopped supplying software updates for these operating systems.

How do I tell if I have it?
Right now the easiest way to tell if your computer has been infected is to head to security firm F-Secure and download its Flashback detection and removal software. Follow the instructions here on how to get and use it. Security company Symantec offers its own, Norton-branded standalone tool, which you can get here.

Alternately, you can run a trio of commands in Terminal, a piece of software you'll find in the Utilities folder in your Mac's Applications folder. If you want to find it without digging, just do a Spotlight search for 'Terminal.'

Once there, copy and paste each one of the code strings below into the terminal window. The command will run automatically:

defaults read /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info LSEnvironment
defaults read /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/Info LSEnvironment
defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES

If your system is clean, the commands will tell you that those domain/default pairs 'does not exist.' If you're infected, it will spit up the patch for where that malware has installed itself on your system.

Uh oh, I have it. How do I remove it?
Using one of the above, aforementioned tools from F-Secure or Norton will automatically get rid of the malware from your computer without any further steps. If you are, for some reason, wary of using one of these third-party tools, CNET's Topher Kessler provides a step-by-step guide on how to remove Flashback from your Mac. This process also requires hopping into Terminal and running those commands, then tracking down where the infected files are stored, then manually deleting them.

For good measure, it's also a good idea to change your online passwords at financial institutions and other secure services that you may have used while your computer was compromised. It's unclear if this data was being targeted, logged, and sent as part of the attack, but it's a smart preventive behavior that's worth doing on a regular basis.
