Chuck & Kim asked: <Can the Mac pick up spy-ware/ad-ware off the internet?>
and Alex answered: <No. It's strictly a Windows affliction.> Okay, but curiously, what about Mac users who run Microborg applications such as IE? And also, even though they're not for free, how come I've seen software programs for sale which *are* designed to clean spyware off of Macs? Those kinds of programs tempted me greatly. I don't use IE, any Microborg apps whatsoever or Windoze, but I figured from the existence of those programs I must be picking up spyware somehow on my Mac.....hence the temptation. ~Yersinia. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
