So Apple released a security patch for...a vulnerability that doesn't exist...got it. Now it all makes sense.

If there is a vulnerability in PHP, then anyone running PHP with their web server is vulnerable - Mac, Windows, Linux, Solaris, etc. Same for QuickTime. And this probably will show those interested in going after Macs that apparently the only approach is to look for this kind of thing. And it is definitely potentially dangerous - or at least it was for a few days. Which makes me wonder how Macs are shipped - if I go buy a new one next Sunday will it have this patch for Quicktime with it, or do I need to do an update when I get home? -- John DeCarlo, My Views Are My Own ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
