I expect silence from the Mac users of FreeRepublic on this issue. They will avoid this thread like the plague.

Why? This is just more FUD from a company that makes its money from FUD. Their report doesn't even document even ONE malicious attack... and their "37 high vulnerabilities" in OSX were, for the most part, not even that. I can think of three that might qualify as "high vulnerabilities" but the rest required a large number of improbably events to occur before they could even become a threat.

On the contrary, PS, I find this thread interesting, and I am about as rabid a Mac fan as you're going to find here. I do not, however, believe that the platform is invulnerable to attack, nor do I believe that simply viewing a thread like this is going to shake my belief in any of the things that I like about using a Mac, any more than the *numerous* discussions, FAQs, warnings, bulletins, Service Packs, etc., have deterred PC users from believing in Windows' position as comparable to Prometheus bringing fire from the Gods to mortals and the Mac platform as an abomination from the depths of Hell that must be stamped out, ridiculed and hounded out of existence at any cost.

That about cover it?
