Here is an article about this, with a link to show you- how this script can affect your system, just by surfing by a web page. http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=/Tips/ help_exploit/helpexploit.html YOW! I see Apple finally released a patch for it in the last day (Tho- I read they have known about this hole since February??!!!) What took them so long? I suppose people writing patches to fix it, motivated them to patch it? Everyone should get this one. See http://www.apple.com/support/ Choice of Two patches , one is for if you are running pre-OSX.3 one for 10.3 and after Speak of the other devil we've been discussing this week... A huge box of Microsoft Office 2004 is at the top of the start page of Apple.com! Ha! Off to install this patch... Yours, Kay | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be May 25.
