that's what I think when I read any of these exploit stories
It goes for Windows XP SP2 and OSX. Never had a problem.
So what's all the fuss about.

Week after week we see these XP exploit vulnerability stories,
then OSX. And I've lost no data, no fake transactions on my
credit cards, and it's the same for everyone I know.

And no stories of large numbers of users having any of these
problems...

Why all the hype all the time?
