[QUOTE="6string, post: 1041640, member: 120039"] Thats's fine! As for the rest, not going to waste my time answering any of that, as it will only lead to more novels of paranoia rather than peace of mind for you. I've had Macs for years! No viruses, no trojans, no malware of any sort. These Hackers that you mention in every thread of yours... Who are you? A major banking corporation, a government agency, facebook perhaps? Seriously, are you listening to yourself? If I were you, as advised so many times by so many members here (majority of which are long time Mac users), just enjoy your Mac, and as long as you don't download and install and illegal software, or porn, and you have your wireless internet password protected, you have nothing to worry about! This is not one of those techie, trojan filled, virus infected, hacking movies. I probably shouldn't say this, as it will give you a whole new thing to freak out about, but I'd be more worried about using your bankcard at an ATM, for the fear that the machine could have a skimming device connected :D [/QUOTE]
