[QUOTE="pokermaniac, post: 1312986, member: 187922"] Sorry, it was months back and I do not have a link. You can Google it though :) You must remember when there were one or two viruses out there for OSX about 4 or so months ago, one that supposedly did not need you to enter your root password to install. It was posted on many places on the web. Apple sent a SU to protect OSX against it, however, it was pretty far after the fact. Ahhhh.....I just saw the "snipe hunt" link. The viruses I am talking about were talked about on most mainstream security forums. I do believe that they were true threats. Enough for Apple to update OSX to protect against them. [/QUOTE]
