I want to know if there is an easy and safe way to check if my computers are infected with the new trojan "Flashback".

Thanks!

You need to check in two steps:

1. In Terminal type:

defaults read /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info LSEnvironment


If you get an error-message like:

The domain/default pair of (/Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Info, LSEnvironment) does not exist


Everything is ok!


After this check step 2:

2. In Terminal type:

defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES


If you get an error-message like:

The domain/default pair of (/Users/peter/.MacOSX/environment, DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES) does not exist


Everything is ok!


That's it!
