How to find and remove the OSX.RSPlug.A malware
Authored by: garythemacguy on Nov 01, '07 05:40:28AM

Intel iMac, Mac OS X 10.4.10 - McAfee VirusScan v8.5 (formerly known as Virex).

I have the "VirusScan Schedule Editor" component set to do a DAT eUpdate every working day (I work for a university). Your "sudo crontab -l" produces the following output:

# Virex Schedule Editor Task 09282007101331946
32 10 * * 1,2,3,4,5 /usr/local/vscanx/VShieldScheduleLauncher -i 09282007101331946 >/dev/null 2>&1

Although I'm actually in IT support, I hadn't specifically known that it used cron to achieve its results.
