[QUOTE="mafpolo, post: 999954, member: 127790"] A buddy of mine who is very pro PC told me that I am kidding myself regarding mac being secure from threats. I have never downloaded something unintentionally. I have clicked and watched movie clips that friends have forwarded to me (I don't know if that can hold a trojan horse. I have also clicked on video clips on the net). My imagination and paranoia as it is - after he told me this I started to notice that my G5 tower seems to have slowed down some, had some Firefox problems (it recently started asking if "Remember Password" for sites I have been going to for a long time - such as this one and other forums). Also, my iTunes has gone to visualizer by itself (unless I hit a button or tab, etc and didn't know it). So, opinions, guidance, etc. Thanks, Worry Wort Mac Lover [/QUOTE]
