Macs may not get viruses like that, but there are a lot of phishing schemes that bypass the computer altogether and work purely on social engineering. Also, if you're on facebook, it has become a very fruitful vector for malware. You have to be very careful of what you click "like" on, and you should never "click on this button to see the video we're talking about", or "cut and paste this into your browser to see the video". > sweet dreams > jg > > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
