Jaz Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 LOL apple willl be so pissed, 1 of the major selling points of mac is no hassles like spyware, malware and of coarse virus's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJAdumbration Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I believe the Lord Jobs is still claiming OSX is the most secure on the planet as this particular malware "requires user interaction to install". In other words, denial there is a problem.ANY system can get a virus, malware or whatever. The only way to ensure your computer never gets a virus is to leave it turned off and unplugged.Still, love watching the Mac fanbois charging to the defence of the their beloved saviour and his company. Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismak Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 In other words, denial there is a problem. Come on now . They've admitted its existence and will release an update that will detect and remove it. This isn't denying the problem.That put aside, OSX has a long way to go before it can claim to be the most secure OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBG Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Hopefully though Apple will be able to get on top of any new threats before it gets out of hand. If so, they should be able to keep it under control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
