為Mac系統提供安全和隱私軟件的廠商Intego本周二警示說，一些Mac軟件含有間諜軟件。Macworld已經取得了存在該間諜軟件的初步軟件列 表。該間諜軟件被稱為OSX/OpinionSpy，它是2008年出現的Windows 間諜軟件的變種。OSX/OpinionSpy 彈出一個對話框，以市場調查的名義欺騙用戶，取得 admin密碼，安裝“PremierOpinion”進程以root身份運行，在8254端口打開http后門，掃描所有本地和網絡驅動卷，向 Safari，Firefox以及iChat中注入惡意代碼，竊取包含電子郵件地址等信息的加密數據以及用戶名，密碼，信用卡號碼等個人數據。

OSX/OpinionSpy可以自動升級并通過Mac OS自啟動，即使卸載宿主程序，它依然在Mac中存在。
