wireshark trojan?

by Lawson English <LEnglish5@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 4, 2008 at 10:20 AM

Being lazy, I downloaded a wireshark .dmg from

http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/WireShark-Download-23340.html

and installed.

I just rebooted and was informed that the wireshark copy in my startup 
items had the wrong permissions...

Hello.


That's got potential to be the ultimate customizable man-in-the-middle 
attack and I certainly didn't authorize it to install as a startup.


So now, I'm stuck trying to remove every trace of wireshark from my Mac 
and reinstall from the source obtained via source forge.


I'll give this warning to http://mac.softpedia.com/
but for now, I'm not 
trusting anything I might download from them and neither should anyone 
else, IMHO.
