Intego (http://www.intego.com), the Macintosh security specialist,
says that, for the third time this month, malware targeting the
iPhone has surfaced.

This new malware, that Intego calls iBotnet.A, is, according to the
company, “by far the most sophisticated iPhone malware yet: it is not
only a worm, capable of spreading across a network, but also hijacks
iPhones or iPod touches for use in a botnet.” Intego says it’s
important to note that standard, non-jailbroken iPhones or iPod
touches are not at risk.

The company adds that it’s extremely dangerous to jailbreak an iPhone

Macintosh users have been able to store “managed information” –
calendars, contacts, podcasts, and more on their Macs for years.
Today’s challenge is to sync that information to other devices and
locations so that its owner can access the data anytime, anywhere.

The latest addition to the Take Control series, Michael E. Cohen’s
“Take Control of Syncing Data in Snow Leopard,” explains how to sync
data to and from a Mac, with advice for readers who have never tried
syncing before and for those who need to solve syncing problems or
work in complex environments.

(Leopard Edition) requires Mac OS X / Mac OS X Server 10.5 or later
and is tested for compatibility with Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server
10.5.8.
