Sammamish, WA | Why? Any one know why the Windows Media Player buffer overflow that was made public by US-CERT (VU#291396) didn't make the news this week?  | |

| Excuse me Viruses are still harder to execute, even if people do write viruses we Mac users can get Virus scanners and scan files before they are instracted and installed. Even if they are installed we are still safer because UNIX file system on macs do not give access to core essential files. You windows users are just jealous. By the way. I have both a Gateway on XP and my Mac Powermac Quad G5 and I love my mac best.

Burlington, VT | It's not a tumer. (and I'm certainly not "shellshocked') Anyone who opens a strange file deserves to get hosed, PC or Mac.
Nothing to see here folks. Move along now... | |

| Re: New info... Wow, that's a really nice summary. 0-49 instances in the wild. Look out!
The sequence of screenshots is pretty funny. I think the part where the terminal window pops up would freak people out...

| SOPHOS reminds me of... The ADT salesman who visits your house as soon as you move in to the neighborhood. They are desperately trying to sell their AV software to the Mac market--as is all the rest of these companies. Guess what, IT AIN'T GONNA WORK.
They won't even explain what it takes for this 'virus' to spread.
