The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Buy our product now!

Ok, seriously, this is nothing.It is a proof of concept, that can  
ONLY affect Intel specific files in the same folder that it resides.  
It certainly isn't a "virus". You have to get this file, then YOU  
have toput it into a system folder and then execute (run) it!. This  
would be a "Trojan horse". Apparently Symantic is having troubles  
selling Norton Anti-virus to Mac users and is attempting to boost sales.

Please continue with your normal lives now.
