Please don't encourage the general naivetee among Mac users by providing false hopes, Lahcim.

Someone somewhere not knowing something is not a basis for argument.

I'm glad you've come to the rather sudden realization that Apple silently issuing a patch months too late doesn't suddenly cure the army of sluggish zombified spamming Macs; quite possibly the largest scale compromise of a Major OS platform in history.

Mabye you should find out about things like Least User Access and registry and file virtualization... front line defenses in an age when faith-based anti-virus is a joke.

The beauty of the situation is that after years of sounding warnings only to hear rather ignorant claims in return, one can only say that whomever get this virus really does undeniably have it coming.

And you should stop spreading misinformation:

Unlike previous attacks on Apple's OS X, the infection required no user interaction beyond visiting an infected website.

Happy Surfing, Mac Owners
