i agree.......
it clearly states that this flaw opens Mac OSX to drive by attacks...........
where's all the posts flaming Apple........they seem to be strangely missing, if this was a windows flaw, there'd be all sorts of posts with bad spelling,although it is pretty hard to spell MAC wrong, maybe thats why they have so much difficulty with spelling windows, they're used to 3 letter words
