A little more news of the Apple Malaware issue.

It seems that the Malaware writers and Apple are in for an extended war of wits and its worth being mindful of the fact that new variants of the 'bugs' are being developed and updated on a regular basis. From our perspective as users it just highlights the need to be vigilant about computer security regardless of the computing platform used.

No doubt there will be other news items on the same issue but this is the first I've come across so I'm just putting it out there for interested 'catters.

Apple's malware detection update circumvented in 8 hours

Cheers,
