Thanks for the quick response. I would love to wait for the Apple fix. Any idea of a timeline before it is released.

No, unfortunately Apple hasn't given one. Here is the info Apple has about it:

Re: Flashback/Flashfake trojan

I would love to wait for the Apple fix. Any idea of a timeline before it is released.


The fix from Apple is now out, in the form of an update to Java. Just run Software Update from the Apple Menu in order to see it.

Looks like it doesn't take care of all variants of the Flashback/Flashfake trojan, for that I'd recommend some good anti-virus software. Here are two good free ones, they are constantly updated:

ClamXav

or

Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition

ClamXav is also available in the Mac App Store here.
