• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Mac Trojan Flashback.B Checks for VM

This is pretty good light reading for the topic. You can actually trick malicious software that wouldn't otherwise run on a VM into thinking it's actually the host. Or if you're into reverse engineering protected software you can also thwart detection from some of the various settings on page 23, at the great expense of performance.
