 		 #182446 - Jobs will tell us that it is the wrong way to use a Mac
Responding to: ???'s previous message

See, the whole point of this is that since Macs don't get viruses, there's no Mac antivirus software. Therefore, almost by definition, any Mac antivirus software package must be fake.

Seriously, though, that malware package that masquerades as fake AV software requires the user to click "OK" and "Continue" several times during the installation. One has to wonder about the level of computer literacy of someone who would actually click all of the way through the installation process.

Possibly these users are regular PC users who happen to own a Mac. Windozes track record has made them very gullible.

Just like the iPhone antenna problem, Jobs will tell us that it is the wrong way to use a Mac, not a virus problem.
