AOL posted this on one of its pop up windows: "Mac users sometimes think they're safer from viruses just because they're on a Mac. And though most viruses target Windows machines, that doesn't mean you're invulnerable"
Please read this article it seems that OS X in more vulnerable to viruses because of the Unix interface. I am getting a little nervous now that I've upgraded to OS X. I've never used an antivirus since 1992 and that was because I was in high school (viruses were running like crazy in the school macs) Do I have to worry about an antivirus expense (something that used to be unnecesary for home)? [ironically] Geez, one more expense to add to the list of computer supplies. Disinfectant is long gone and there is no freebies anymore. Can someone read and post their thoughts? http://maccentral.macworld.com/news/2001/08/06/hacker/ Thanks! Lil -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
