Existing users, 
This program does NOT know how to detect and remove all the versions of what is incorrectly called the "DNSChanger" Trojan. It only knows about 5 of the 7 versions. If you go to the MacScan website you will find this is the case.
The official name of this Trojan series is Trojan.OSX.RSPlug.A through G, as of today anyway.
There are also three other Trojan series of which this program is unaware:
Trojan.OSX.Lamzev.A
Trojan.OSX.PokerStealer.A
Trojan.OSX.iServices.A through B
Instead, go get the freeware version of iAntiVirus from PC Tools. It has been kept up-to-date with ALL current Mac OS X specific malware. (Note that the freeware version of iAntiVirus does NOT catch any Windows or Microsoft Office malware).
