I was wondering about this too. Never heard of a Mac virus that could do this, perhaps it's a new one (or I missed something in my general Mac education). Unfortunately, when the hd is erased, the virus is gone too, and it'll be impossible to investigate further, I guess. Can't be an .exe file, but self executing apps can be made for Macs. There has been one Mac virus spreading itself like the ones on PCs. Going for Outlook and Entourage. Didn't do any real damage though, but did send itself on to everyone in the address book.
