For all things MAC. So that's anything to do with Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, iTunes, G3, G4, G4, miniMAC, iMAC, MACBook, MACBook PRO or iBook. If it's hot hardware then it's got to be software - Tiger, Panther, OSX software.
Just thought a would let you all know that there's some sort of virus goin' around when 1 of your friends on MSN will send you a link and tell you to check out a link.
there have been loads of these...i remember them when i used to only be on PC. i haven't encoutered them on a mac yet ...although running a virus on a mac is pretty hard (unless you're logged in as admin, and you don't require a password for applications to access system files/apps. that's just stupid tho )
A have to say Juggernaut, it seems alot of the viruses are written more for PC than Mac which gives Mac an advantage, but ofcourse, like most things these days, it's easily re-coded and written to run on Macs etc.
aye, with mac stupitly deciding to go onto intel (thus requiring universal binary) it's only a matter of time till they start cropping up on macs.
*starts buying up as much G4 hardware as possible to support and repair her Powerbook for the next 10 years*

Why not. Keeping alive and half on topic then, my Snow Leopard has an option for turning on a Firewall but it greyed out. Maybe cos i installed a Snow upgrade only onto a blank HD cos my standard Leopard discs were not available to me?
