She's a bit of a bully.
Hey, Mac users: There's a new malware on the block known as "Eleanor," and she isn't very nice.
This bug is hidden in an app called Easy Doc Converter, allegedly designed to let users easily transform various file types into Microsoft Word documents. Instead, it wreaks havoc on your computer.
Once installed, it gives an attacker anonymous access and even control of your computer to do things like capture images from your webcam.
Want to prevent this from happening? Be careful and don't download apps from unidentified sources.
