Over 1,600 OSX Security Problems found

in under 2 seconds.

"How many times have Mac users had any ...security problems?"

Wow, that wasn't so tough to find...

I do love this one.... "A REPORT claimed there's a way to circumvent security on the machines running the latest version of Mac OSX, by crashing a locked screensaver and recovering the desktop.

According to the filing, if you leave a key pressed for five minutes or more and then press the Return key, that crashes the screensaver and gives you access to the desktop.

The person who filed the report claimed that he's notified Apple of the hole but hasn't had a reply from the firm.
