I like my Mac.

I can certainly see why!

You have a false sense of security . MACS are exploited at similar rates to PC's.

There are around 40 Mac-specific viruses and related threats.

++Mac users with Word 6 or versions of Word/Excel supporting Visual Basic for Applications, however, are vulnerable to infection by macro viruses which are specific to these applications. Indeed, these viruses can, potentially, infect other files on any hardware platform supporting these versions of these applications. I don't know of a macro virus with a Mac-specific payload that actually works at present, but such a payload is entirely possible. ++Office 98 applications are in principle vulnerable to most of the threats to which Office 97 applications are vulnerable. I'll return to this subject when and if time allows. [DH]
