Macs are **% secure but I've been wondering if it's "technically" possible for a hackintosh distro maker or anybody out there to implement some sort of trojan or any other malicious software to the OS or even modify core files to steal personal info or passwords etc. Not accusing or blaming anybody, just a technical question out of curiosity. Is it possible that there might be any virus / trojan / open backdoors or any other harmful thing in a hackintosh distro.


If so, how can I be sure of my systems security

Thanks



Note: I did a search but the search function didn't work, and I couldn't find an appropriate catagory for this question. And sorry if it sounds stupid.
 
That would be why you use a retail copy of OS X and not a distro. Thus also why Tonymacx86 doesn't support distros, who knows what has been done to it. Not to mention the whole piracy debacle.

iBoot and Multibeast are safe.
