Consumer group urges Mac users to ditch Safari
,----[ Quote ]
| Mac users should scrap Apple's Safari and replace it with a browser that
| offers anti-phishing protection, such as Mozilla's Firefox or Opera
| Software's Opera, Consumer Reports said Monday as it unveiled its annual
| Internet security survey.
|
| Although Americans reported fewer spyware attacks and malware infections in
| the last year than in the past, phishing attacks remain a serious concern,
| said the magazine, which polled more than 2,000 American households with
| Internet access.

| Lilly doesn't have a problem with Apple using its software update utility to
| keep its users up-to-date with iTunes and QuickTime, or any other Apple
| software they may have installed. The problem for Lilly is that even if you
| don't have Safari installed, Apple pushes the update to users and checks
| the "install" box by default.
