As a long-time Windows user, I've been subject through the years by taunts from Apple lovers that Macs are invulnerable to attack, unlike PCs with security holes large enough for trucks to drive through. So pardon me while I gloat over the news that more than 600,000 Macs have been infected with a Trojan.

Just in time for the completion of my Snowy Hackintosh. :S
Thanks are in order for Hatryst for his very informative How-To on the subject. So CHEERS to you Hatty! :D
Glad it helped, Kevin :) Thanks!
It would be even better if you install Lion directly, instead of Snow Leopard. But it requires (a little bit) access to a Mac, so if you don't have a Mac at hand, or a copy of the "Install Mac OS X Lion" app, you can go for Snow Leopard.
Also, can you please share the specs of your hackintosh?
Asus P7P55D LE (BIOS rev 2003)
Core i5 750
8GB Corsair XMS3
Zotac 8600GT 256MB
I was thinking I might try to get my hands on a Mac Pro case to put everything in, that would be pure awesomeness. :D
Everything pretty much works except for Sleep (even with Tony Mac's DSDT) but I'm not too bothered about that right now. Had a slight problem with USB but I re-ran IOUSB Rollback in Multibeast and it seems to be OK now.
In your opinion, in terms of features etc., is it worth spending the extra money to upgrade to Lion?
Better be careful while selling this stuff!
You can sell a computer, with it's HDD/SSD formatted, and bundle a Snow Leopard disc with it, but don't sell it with OS X installed, otherwise...
