They do not self replicate. Will you explain, please, *WHY* that Trojan posed no threat? This is what ChatGPT says about it:- **Trojan.OSX.RustAgent** is a type of macOS malware written in the Rust programming language. Rust is popular among malware developers because it’s cross-platform, fast, and harder to reverse-engineer than some older languages. The **RustAgent** Trojan usually works by: - **Gaining unauthorized access** to a macOS system. - **Downloading and executing payloads** — additional malicious software. - **Collecting sensitive data** such as passwords or browser information. - **Communicating with a command-and-control (C2) server** to receive further instructions from attackers. **How does it spread?** - Fake app installers or cracked software. - Phishing emails with malicious attachments. - Drive-by downloads from compromised websites. **How to check for it:** 1. Run a reputable antivirus/malware scanner for macOS. 2. Monitor your **Activity Monitor** for suspicious processes. 3. Check **~/Library/LaunchAgents** and **/Library/LaunchDaemons** for strange files. = Perhaps you are not as clued-up on Macs as you think you are, Dustin! -- Kind regards David (With apologies to John - but I am STILL David!)
