Macbots attack in 5...4...3...2...1...
LOL!
I just picked up the Green AV spyware virus on my PC, and I’ve already posted a help request yesterday on FR, and I have received many responses on how to remove it, but the fact that I got it in the first place aggravates me. I gave up and gave it to a neighbor who has some computer expertise, so I hope he can get rid of it for me. Otherwise, I will have to restore my hard drive to its original state when I bought it, and that will be a pain as anyone who has a computer knows.
Dang right! Who are you going to believe? Me or your own lyin' eyes??!!!
Shhhhh!
Don't tell it to the Macbots. They think they look so darn cute overpaying for an Apple logo, and walking down the street packing a Mac. Don't burst their bubble. LOL!
Hackers are not interested in MAC because they are such a small share of the market, why bother.
A good hacker can hack anything, but wants a big bang for their buck....go for the PC the largest market.
Well Duh , so can a thousand others. FUDMiller's claim to fame is that if you give him the Root(administrative)
password, he can crack a system.
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
Apple doesn’t have one feature that, if an attacker gains access to the system helps him better exploit it.
Except OS X is harder to gain access to in the first place.
Randomization is a good feature, and I wish OS X had it, but it’s just one part of a defense in depth. To claim an OS is less secure in the first place because it doesn’t have the feature is ridiculous. A better overall security architecture is far more important.
Not quite. Miller ignores Apple's different approach to system security. Miller for some reason prefers the Windows ASLR and DEP to the methods that Apple has chosen to use. First of all, Apple DOES use address space layout randomization for their dynamic libraries and system command locations. Miller also totally ignores the fact that data stacks and the heap are NON-EXECUTABLE memory spaces in OSX so his worry about buffer overflows is over wrought.
The point still must be made that after eight years of trying, no one has made a successful self-duplicating, self-transmitting, self-installing malicious virus for Mac OSX. The number of viruses in the wild for OSX is still ZERO. There are fewer than a dozen known Trojans and Apple has included an anti-Trojan method into the OS at the system level in OSX Snow Leopard that recognizes the signatures of known Trojans on download and warns the user that they have fallen for the social engineering and are downloading a malicious app.
If I go home tonight and my Mac is totally and irreversably infected it will be the first time in 20 years of using Mac’s that I have ever had the problem that has plagued Winbloze users on a daily basis for the same period of time and that puts me/Mac users way ahead.
All you gushing fan girls crack me up - Just grow up and use what you want.

Looks like FUD to me.
Inept FUD at that :)
Virus? I don’t see no stinking virus on Mac OS.
Touché.
