Hello; First, let me say that I too have not heard anything about a security issue from apple. But, I have had a funny thing happen since I updated to the most recent version of the operating system. There is a site www.nationalmoonwalkdirectory.com that I have been visiting regularly with no problem. But last week whenever i would go there i would get a mal ware alert telling me not to visit the site. Now the site is offline all together. It looks like maybe the webmaster did or didn't do something to cause that. I don't know. But I am curious as to why one week a site is acceptable and the next week its dangerous. Just thought I'd mention this. Please send us more info on security issues. Thanks, Max On May 24, 2009, at 5:48 PM, John Panarese wrote:
