Of course: it's Apple, so it's either not true or doesn't matter, period.

Hardcore Maccores remind me to Obi-van: a contrentic hand movement in the air and voila', nothing has happened, everything is gone. (I have to try this in a pub next time... )

I have no idea how to use a Mac, nor do I want to. (Playing computer games is too important to me to go that route.)

This is just not nearly as serious a problem as what Windows users face on a daily basis where hooking the computer up to the internet can get your computer hijacked.

So this worm that requires user interaction is on the level of an Outlook VB script vulnerability, not very exciting.

Sorry.

[Edit]
I agree on one point though, because it's on a Mac it doesn't matter!
