Was that sarcasm? There are quite a few exploits doing the rounds on
Apple systems ATM. Even their playpen has been exploited recently with
malicious apps pretending to be other apps and getting past the
playpen checking.


V. funny Dennis. How many is that then? Last time I checked, some 8
years ago, there were more than 140,000 viruses etc for Windows.

Not a word about "exploits" on any Mac ng, so you're imagining things
again.

All apples are not Macs.
Lot of Iphone exploits in the field
