    Mac only has about 10 to 20% of the market so for that reason most spyware malware and Virus code is written for the other 80% of the market and they are mostly windows based pc's. Because of the ill fated roll out of Vista a lot of people went over to Mac. So the more popular Mac becomes the more likely malicious code will be written for it.

    Well the bank finally realised I'm getting shafted when I rang them and told them another $800 went missing from my account in one transaction, instead of a dispute form they finally realised my card needed cancelling and sent all the information through to the fraud squad HOORAY! I've never had a problem until I bought my wife some flowers giving my credit card details over the phone to pay for them, the same day the missing money started happening, this goes to show never buy your other half any flowers guys it always ends in trouble

    They do, but it only works when you do your own transactions. i put an order through to e-hobby about a year or so ago and no joking, about 2 min after I had pressed the confirm button they rang me to query the transaction coz it was in Japan....
