The amazing new iBoat is in development as we speak. That should take care of it.

No , the reports are true enough. However, the PC community claim he only walks on water because he can't swim...

I don't care who you are. You aren't walking on the water where I am fishing.

Who is Steve Jobs??

Steve Jobs is to Crapple as Bill Gates is to Microsuck.

Not quite ... Bill never got sacked from his own company, and Steve has never met me

And both need to get an iLife!

It might be of interest to Safari users, especially because Apple aren't looking to fix 2 of the 3 with any urgency.

This is a Microsoft security problem. A perfect example of how Microcrap protects itself but not its third party developers (by writing protection into IE and not the OS which would protect everyone.)

However, Apple did change Safari and it is no longer a problem, so if you want to try Safari, go ahead it is perfectly safe. This is just Stuart spreading some FUD.

We have the same web sites that try to download malicious software on to Macs also, but the Mac OS does not initially allow it to get that far. Mac OS warns you of what is happening and you have to give it permission to continue. We do not have any security problems with Safari or the Mac OS.... NONE!!!!!!!

Hey Stuart, tell us about the 115,000 odd pieces of malware written especially for Microcrap pea-seas, while at the same time there are NO VIRUSES effecting Macs. Why is this so?

BWAAAAAAhahahahahahahaha!!!!!

In 5 years or less you will all be working on a Mac.

You really don't bother reading anyone else's posts do you?

I've been on Mac for a good amount of time now, running both OSX & Windows.
I like it, and if I had to choose between them, I'd stay with OSX.

But it is not the holy grail it is cracked up to be.

Interesting how it is no longer a problem, seeing as that blog post was only made on the 14th May, and it was reputedly still an issue then.

My problem is: you were the one encouraging Microsoft OS users to try Safari, and yet you also say that there is a security issue there, but it only matters to Microsoft OS users so imply it isn't relevant. Can't have it both ways. I was bringing that to their attention.

Anyway. This is all very boring. Some of us have woodwork to do and talk about.

Yes, you are right. I did not read the date of the post. I remember reading a very similar (almost identical) post many, many months ago which is no longer an issue. I thought it was the same old article.

Sorry about that.
