Your entire reasoning is based on your assumption that such malware even exists for the Mac. Hence my request that you justify that assumption.

I don't see how it is relevant as I'm not claiming your system is infected I'm just pointing out that not having av your assumption that your system is clean is a pretty big stretch.
And again though I couldn't name specific examples I did name a category of virus that by its very nature does not disrupt a system because it is counter productive to the viruses goals and I can assure you that there are plenty of examples of that particular group on the mac.
However, if a name will really make you happy The Backdoor.OSX.HellRaiser virus is quite effective and it does exactly what I said earlier.
