ups.  I haven't heard this on any of the Mac sites, so take it as you will, 
thought I'd pass it on.


I tried to send this just to those of you whom I was aware had a Mac
Operating System Computer at home.  This come through on our monthly
security bulletin and I thought it was worth sharing.

web cam, and calendar
