Bien sure!
You can't even get IE for the Mac anymore. Aw shucks.
The email sent to SLUG was BCC'd to lots of Winders addicts out
there in an attempt to wean them off the evilware on their machine.
They were the target audience for my IE remark.
I hope some take the advice. I've seen people using buggy and insecure
IE 6.0 lately. When I tell them all about it, and the zombies and the
spam and the p0rn etc.etc. they usually glaze over and start surfing again.
Sigh.
I think one of the real serious aspects of lax internet security is
that most consumers simply do not see the dangers and could care less.
Their puter is little more than a toaster with a pretty browser and
email interface on it.
