For-q-Clinton, that just a word for word repeat of the same quote from before. It is STILL NOT POSSIBLE for an email on a Mac to have infected the Mac. You keep ignoring it was proved that someone had access to her entire HOUSE, installing an unauthorized optical fiber cable! If they had that kind of access, why use an email? That is a stupid, iffy way to do it. The DOCUMENTS could have come in that way, as I described, but not the spyware.

It has also been stated she was running Windows in either in BootCamp, Parallels, or VMWare, which means that if that email came in in Windows exchange, then, yes, it is possible for the WINDOWS install to be infected with WINDOWS SPYWARE! CBS uses Microsoft Exchange for their inter office email. . . so . . . there's your vulnerability and your exploits. Windows. . . Skype Yipe!

A Macintosh computer, running Windows is JUST as vulnerable as every other Windows computer out in the wild. . . in the Windows instance. For that reason we recommend NOT allowing SANDBOXED Windows virtual machines to have a connection to the Internet at all.

Try dragging your dead horse. . . Forklifts are helpful, too. . .
