Mark Manching Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Mac Users... Beware of those nifty Spyware/Adware :-x We've just found the first Mac rogue application and it's called MacSweeper. It claims to clean your Mac from compromising files and it will always find something to fix/clean but the only way to do so is to buy the program.

I agree with you there as im a sales person that sells Pc's and Mac's (plus a few other things) and the amount of customers that belive getting a vuris or even a hacker on a mac is like finding a needle in a hay stack where as windows is like "What weights more a Ton of feathers or a Ton of bricks?" (<--- belive me people get that wrong lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
