Have the signatures been updated to include variants of Flashback.G?
While the MacHomeAV regularly autoupdates, the "Flashback.G" threat does not appear on the Latest Threats list of the Sophos Mac Security Hub yet; it probably will in the next few hours.
Since "Flashback.G" it's a very malicious malware, Mac folks are strongly advised to:
1: Update your Mac OS and Java installations running Apple Software Update as soon as possible.
2: Stay off of any untrusted "content signed by 'Apple Inc.'" certificate, as shown in the image below. If this applet should occur, click "CANCEL".
3. (Of course) Full-scan your system with Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac, and/or keep your AV up to date.
For more informations on the "Flashback.G" trojan, also visit the Mac Security Blog @ Intego.
