Hi all,
as I exchange quite a few files with PC users I thought I give ClamXav
a try
on ma Mac. Unsurprisingly it flagged a few PC files that were send to
me as
infected, however it also flagged two files in the REALbasic framework:
/Applications/REALbasic 2007 Release 3/REALbasic 2007 Release
3.app/Contents/Resources/Frameworks/X86RunHoudini.exe:
Trojan.Dropper-12634
FOUND
/Applications/REALbasic 2008 Release 1/REALbasic 2008 Release
1.app/Contents/Resources/Frameworks/X86HoudiniConsole.exe:
Trojan.Agent-40367 FOUND
Are these false positives or real? I use Parallels Desktop from time
to time
but I find it hard to believe that that could lead to an infection of
my Mac
files ...
Well, if you share your Mac hard disk with the host OS, why would you
expect an eventual virus to not infect it?
I'd warn you against sharing anything but a small folder with Parallels.
I admit I don't know what are these X86RunHoudini files (a name that
does not seem reliable to me, by the way).
Because if you run Windows on a Mac, the Mac filesystem isn't the same
one used by Windows, so malware should only be able to infect files that
can be seen by the guest software?
SiteAdvisor seems to not list this file as a problem.
