JesusMac

More uses for Macs:
Harwell was a student at Biola University at the time but no longer attends the school. Goodrich said many of the victims attended the university.

Harwell used a program called Camcapture that was installed on the victims' hard drives, Goodrich said, adding that potential victims should search the "/Library/WebServer Documents" directory for the Camcapture program.

Detectives also believe Harwell may have exploited Macintosh computers that were connected to Biola's internal network, officials said.
It should be made clear that "Biola" University is the current incarnation of the Bible Institute Of Los Angeles, & claims to offer "Biblically Centered Education." Which probably explains this.
One message mimicked the appearance of a system message and read: "You should fix your internal sensor soon. If unsure what to do, try putting your laptop near hot steam for several minutes to clean the sensor."

The message led many victims to take their laptops into the bathroom while taking a shower, Goodrich said.
Jesus makes you a moron.

Unless the computers were set up for Remote Admin, and he had the passwords, he would have needed physical access to the computers to install software, as well as admin passwords.

I mean, hell, it's not like these are Windows machines or something.

The steam repair method is pretty awesome.

Even better than "Is your refrigerator running?" or "Prince Albert in a can."

You needn't worry here. If there's something awful & putrid & disgusting that we want to share it will be posted as is.

Would you believe..... I didn't have time to follow the link, because my drink needed refreshing?

"Refreshments" Editor Asks:

So it's Zombie Maxwell Smart now?

Christ, my born-again niece almost attended Biola.

Who'd be stupid enough to take their laptop into the shower?

Scores of silly young girls, apparently.

Isn't one birth enough for people?
