Hi All.
I Think that what has happened is he has remote desktop activated
and one of his friends has logged on as him from another mac.
What a hack that was! Are they prepared to give any evidence that it
has actually happened or is it all just word of mouth, also i thought
all the unix flaws had been sorted for X

At the recent ShmooCon hacking conference, one security researcher
found out the hard way that such venues can be hostile, when an
unknown hacker took control of the researcher's computer,
disabling the firewall and starting up a file server.
" This is almost certainly the year of the OS X exploit. The OS X
platform may be based on a Unix platform, but Apple seems to be
making mistakes that Unix made, and corrected, long ago. " Jay
