[QUOTE="theOneKrishna, post: 1311068, member: 126027"] I somehow contracted the flashback trojan horse, and the funny thing is I had been explaining to my windows user friend that my Mac had no issues of the sort. he then installed Sophos and immediately scanned and found the malicious malware which disguised itself as Flash from Adobe. It I found out later is a phishing program which sends all kinds of user data possibly keystrokes and important sensitive information to some rogue server. I do not buy things from pop up windows anyway. But I appreciate your candor and I am more careful now. I love my Mac and cannot ever go back to Microsoft Windows. [/QUOTE]
