Malware targets Mac's

Malware is increasingly targeting Mac computers. In the past Malware was mainly targeted toward Microsoft's operating systems, this however is beginning to change. Mac's have been widely touted as being more reliable and because of this more and more people have been switching from a Microsoft based operating system to a Mac. This trend however has caused more and more individuals to target Mac's OS with Malware attacks. The most recent is a seemingly harmless video codec that "needs" to install when trying to play a video, once you have given permission for the install the malware takes over your OS.
